Originally by: Chaska Marcos Has anyone thought about the possibility that CCP did this on purpose?
Yes, a lot of people did don their tinfoil hats and spouted this nonsense already. You're not the first to invent the latest conspiracy theory.
Quote: Maybe they would like to make POS's more available for people. Maybe what we'll really see is a price drop on POS equipment.
Maybe you didn't think enough about why that makes no sense, from an "Occam's Razor" point of view.
Well it does increase the overall POS fuel needs and thus reinforces the market for those intermediary PI products.

Originally by: Grozen This means that most calculations about PI are wrong?
No, that's damage control

Originally by: Grozen It doesn't seem you understand what i posted.The output of PI is so large players have no idea.There are really great planets out there with tons of resources in them.A player with maxed planetary skills can catch up very easy to the situation.
It doesn't seem you understand what you are talking about, if only planet output was increased then prices will tank even more. The problem was never of players not being able to catch up, the problem was always one of oversupply.

Originally by: Alain Kinsella PS - Catari, though I'm also concerned about oversupply, raising the output could also entice smaller/starter corps to be self-sufficient. In theory, you can now have a small group build and supply their own high-sec pos labs from scratch - just add standings (or none, if a WH is used). The only isk sink, to them, will be the BPOs and costs of PI usage.
Yes, but that is exactly the problem, isn't it? If everybody is self-sufficient who is going to buy oversupply from the market? There needs to be an incentive to rather lay down the ISK than build it yourself. |

Originally by: Grozen They have yet to reveal more parts of PI do not forget its going to be linked to DUST.If there are alot of dust players how are we going to meet the demand for DUST goods if we're not self-sufficient?
Lol, well let me just say that's assuming an awful lot, and considering DUST is 2-3 expansions away it's pretty irrelevant to everything happening now.
