Industry's not broken beyond repair but it needs some much needed fixes:

1. Remove Tech 2 BPOs
Nobody can compete with that guy that has an uber researched tech2 BPO and can produce stuff without the need for a pos, pos fuel, laboratories, invention jobs, datacores, a vast number of BPCs and other consumables. If you can compete, you will gain far less for a way greater effort. This removal is needed because players that have joined eve since 2006(?) can't obtain these tech2 BPOs via a game mechanic.

2. Ability to create a shopping list in-game
Please add this so we don't need to create a google docs spreadsheet with what we need to buy, etc. If it can be corporation shared that would be great.

3. Embargo
Let us see who we're selling, from whom are we buying. If we don't want to help a corporation/alliance, so be it.

4. Ability to buy/sell from a specific market order
The current mechanic allows bots to do the 0.01 isk games. You put the item up for sale at 100 million isk and some bot puts it in the next 5 seconds to 99.999999 million. If i want to buy from the 100 mil guy, let me do it.

1. T2 BPO make very little difference to the market, if you ever did T2 manufacturing you would know this
2. The EVE API gives full flexibility to 'extend' YOUR game, spreadsheets are a thing of the past tbh
3. Most buyers / sellers use alts for many reasons, 0.0 elites dont even transport with chars in their alliance and prob dont even sell with in alliance characters either
4. The best thing a RMT could want "No CCP I wasnt buying ISK, I just really wanted to buy that one piece of trit for 10 bill ISK"

Anymore excellent suggestions?

1. So you're telling me that people that have a Tech2 BPO don't have it the easy way?

2. I am a software dev in real life, and when I come home from work after hours of coding, I really have no interest in having to develop my own tools, I would rather code for cash.

3. If I know who the 0.0 'elite' hauling and market alt is, I don't want to sell my stuff to him. This also creates market PvP and gives the an echo to the choices you make in 0.0 to be heard in hisec and you will buy stuff cheaper or way more expensive. Brings interesting options don't you think?

4. You can already do this...buy some stuff that is cheap, go to a station that doesn't have said item up for sale, sell for 18 bil. People got scammed this way with iterons and other stuff like that....your point is?

You should check the prices and profits of inventing Claymores mate.

Think about this.

Over 300,000 active subs vs a few hundred T2 BPOs.

Get a grip brother! It ain't gonna break the game.

300 tech 2 bpos with 300.000 subs.

That means there is 0.1% of privileged people. You can't catch up to them, you have no mechanic that even remotely lets you compete. Look at the corps that have tech 2 BPOs...they are spacerich...and what other resource is more important in eve than isk.

Tech2 BPOs are like technetium...except they can't be fought over if they are in a hisec station.

I really don't get this, as a buyer why care how the sellers interact with each other?

If sellers want to engage in price wars then more power to them, and to say they are all bots is simplistic by the way, As a seller I'd be much happier to have someone undercutting me by 0.01 of an isk rather than shitting up a market by sending a decent market freefalling towards cost/build price.

Does not exist in a RL exchange, does not exist in EvE exchange. Exists in RL contracts and... guess what... exists in EvE contracts.

Commodities are commodities. Markets are there to optimize demand and supply with efficient pricing, not to engross someone's ego or help his friends / enemies.




That'd be terrible and would help RMTers while also voiding markets true function, which is to optimize exchanges at the best price and minimum spreads. Which involve taking stuff from within the spread not wherever one wants.
