There needs to be some mechanic for these to be abandoned and destroyed in a reasonable amount of time after running out of fuel and failing to be maintained (like the secure containers that are lost, whether they hold goods or not).
Yeah, that's a good point, we'll note that one down.
I get the horrible sensation that you think these changes are all good and positive. They are not. The reaction from industrialists that lead to all those abandoned towers will have serious negative effects on the market as well. What will you do when those of us who build things decide it's not worth it anymore and decide to say screw it, we're not building things? Will you just start seeding the market like on Singularity? These changes seem focused on driving up risk for poor return on the reward side. The inability to lock down and safeguard blueprints in a corporate hangar in a station means one thing, and one thing only: You're taking assets that we have spent years and years building, and giving us complete crap in return. Why even bother playing the game with changes like this?

This response is at best disingenuous. The vast majority of people locking down blueprints for use in a POS are in stations that don't have those slots. In short, this change screws the VAST majority of us without recourse.

Researching at a POS is not free. First, fuel costs went up by a huge factor with the fuel blocks, which someone has to pay for, and then this. Your post makes literally no sense at all.

Allison A'vani wrote:Sure, this is a humorous thing, but the larger point is that there is an entire system in place for this. You are basically destroying a system that has been in place since invention was added to the game. You are forcing insane amounts of risk that can almost never be given a proper reward for without either destroying the eve economy, or over buffing POS copying. I do not think that the devs who proposed this change can come even close to understanding the ramifications for it.
This.
This whole Dev Blog has convinced me that the Dev's have zero understanding of how industrialists work in this game. This will end up being like the bad nerfs to Incursions that had to be backed out because they rendered incursions unplayable. When you can't buy ships because we won't make them, you know who to come back and complain to.
Or, everything gets switched to station manufacturing, and the prices on everything goes through the roof as a result. Yay, inflation! Good job, Devs!
Is there a SINGLE Dev who spent significant time building things in this game, or are you just all from Goons and the like? I'm trying really hard to keep this positive, but it's a challenge. It's clear to me that the days of horribly bad decisions on the part of CCP are very far from over. You're out of side projects like WoD to kill to make up for bad decisions like this. What will you kill next?

This can be solved by making copies but some bpo copes are still worth a lot of isk and can be still stolen. what ones are worth more than like 20m isk besides supercaps
Researched to the level most of us have them at? A LOT of them. Normal cap parts, subcap ships, even some rigs. You are ignoring how long it takes to research these things.

You just have to scoop out your brain to think this is even remotely reasonable.
