like this exporting via command center is a pain in the ass! or give the command center a capacity of more then 500 m3 - or enable planetary launch via spaceport too!
btw: i dont care too much about these changes from a pi poerspective - just pos'es will be much more expansive to maintain - so prices for t2 and stuff will raise a lot... (my guess) pi prices simply will settle at a somewhat higher level...
i think you have to recalculate your (somewhat higher level) |

CCP Guard wrote:I come bearing news about tax rates from CCP Omen and Team Pi: --- The higher PI taxes are deliberate. We have gotten a fair amount of petitions regarding high taxes for PI goods. We want to take a moment and assure you that it is deliberate and explain why. The taxes that were introduced with the PI feature in Tyrannis did not change as the market value for PI goods went up significantly. This meant that until recently, PI industrialists have enjoyed profit margins of up about 99% without much risk. With the Player Owned Customs Office feature we are changing how PI products come to the market and we are encouraging players to own and operate these offices. With the old tax levels it would be nearly unfeasible to operate a Customs Office and most of our goals with the feature were at risk of being missed. By repairing the taxes to be... a) Based on market value and b) Player set, we now have a foundation for a much more interesting feature that we believe will create many opportunities in New Eden. For more information please see the EVElopedia article for the Player Owned Customs Office: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/CustomsOfficeRegards CCP Omen on behalf of team Pi
when is the last time YOU tried PI ? its a g*ddamn miracle if u get any of the planet, and yes sometimes it can be verry profitable... but does that mean u have to screw it up with ridiculous taxes?
in my opinion you now broke more then you tried to fix |

That being said ...
This is the way things should be heading. You either buy the security you need to run your PI operation from Concorde or from other players.
they could have made a announcement of a mile long, fact is PI was a good income for many people who spend there time to perfect it, now come a official who says hey they make 90% profit? come on show me the figures
extracting was when introduced for the first time a bit of, it was easy and you made really good isk with it, then ccp came along and chanched it, it became a lot harder to extract, a lot quit extracting and went to the market to buy there P0/P1 or what ever P they needed and carry on with that... prices went up, but not a big deal there was a reasonable profit to gain with some market scooping and self extracting you could come a long way, so we made cash... thank god for us the carebears, now comes ccp and yet again they chanched it, lets bring the taxes up screw the highsec carebears once again. writing all this i ask.....
are CCP actually goons? |

(The Tyrannis taxes were set as a percentage of the NPC sell orders that was how planetary commodities used to enter the game pre Tyrannis. As Market prices rose, the tax base did not, effectively making it cheaper and more profitable by the day to do PI without risk. They keyword here is without risk. Players could effectively opt out of playing Internet Spaceship Game, and still make a fortune. We want players to make fortunes when there is risk, spaceships and politics involved. )
so making isk is ok as long as there a lot of pew pew in it?
FYI trading is risk free to, only people who dont pay atention to it have a risk to buy the wrong things at the wrong time

milandinia wrote:those pocos are even next to an highsec system, how easy does it need to be? leave highsec, seek isk in lowsec
CCP did nothing wrong, its just that the carebears dont want to go to lowsec where they can get cheap PI, but thats their fault, not CCPs!
the first intention of this game is that you could be who you wanted to be, if we decide we want to be carebears its our decision but for many years CCP wants us to go low/null sec while we all know its is ruled by pirates and huge alliances, what CCP wants to achieve is that we make stronger bounds to deal with that problem, but if we dont want to do that?
as for me i need to get away from the keyboard many times when im online that means i seek my isk in those things that have the least risk involved, and 1 of those things is PI, but what we all seem to forget since the introduction of PI many of the things we all buy from our markets are directly or indirectly made posible by the people who doing PI.
the risk with the increased taxes is that a lot of high-sec people (or carebears you call them, what ever rocks your boat) will stop doing planetary interaction, and that means prices will rise overall on those items made posible, and so makes the entire game less atractive
as you might have noticed there is some increase in sell orders on the markets for PI stuff what in my opinion means people already start selling there stock at a slightly increased price, if that dry's up what then? i supose time will tell |

As threatened I proved how utterly ridiculous this posters statement was by making a video of what happens when you fly a noob ship into the infamous lowsec pirate hangout of Amamake. To further grind home the original posters lack of understanding the character had no skills trained and the person actually playing the game was a 6 year old girl. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQaBiUQkaREIt'd a very uneventful video, but then again this whole thing is a metaphor for the PI economy, the sky isn't falling, prices will adjust, and PI will continue to be profitable.
the sky is falling and my computer cant take the tax rate, my display driver is protesting and my mouse doesnt dare to come near a customs office ever again |
