It would make the game simpler and easier to balance - all T2 stuff will come from T2 BPCs and invention. No more endless and tedious arguments about how a change here or there to invention will screw over either the T2 BPC inventors or the T2 BPO owners.
"Remove t2 BPO"... But.. Did you never notice that, having a t2 bpo is not only an advantage ?
1) It costs so much you need more than 3-4 years to make interest on the price you paid
2) it's only 1 job -> making a ton of t2 requires tons of time
3) it's only 10-30% more isks gain than your invention
The only advantage I see is not to have to make invention. That's the main point.
Atm, I make much more t2 items using invention than i'd make with the same t2 bpo... making 20 invention and 20 t2 production job in parallel gives much more ISK at the end.
And no, I do not own any t2 BPO, and I don't want any anyway ^^
To come back the real subject of the thread : I still don't get why POS/Outposts owner should have tax from running job in their OWN sructures. That's non sense. Either telling "it's for npc workers in the POS/Outpost" or just telling "never not 0% tax in player structure" is just a shame.
I really like the new way we are going to use industry in EVE, trust me, but, as you CCP says in devblog

Well...
- being able to remote start a blueprint from station corp hangar to POS had an actual gameplay attached, but it's being removed.
- Hauling materials/Ore to station to make items / mineral compression had balance between risk versus reward while you hauled it, but it's being remove in profit for ore compression only in POS (when will we be able to contract courier from station to POS ?)
- Removing used features is sometimes not ******* understandable but visible to your players, but you still do it :)
The only thing I thing behind all these (real for sure in some case) improvements, is the "we need to create isk sink". |
