Until its in the patch notes of a patch or expansion it's not real.

Not all Goons are created equal.

You know who else had an ultimate solution?

I'll be surprised if this happens any time soon. They'll get nerfed before they disappear. I have yet to hear any valid reason these are a problem (except for jealousy) since invention was introduced.

That was the Final Solution

T2 BPO gone = no more T2 stuff? Or how will it work?

Look up "INVENTION".

That is how it works, except for the few OLD RICH vets that were gifted BPO's by their Dev friends.

You know how we know you don't know how the BPO lottery worked.

Yeah. and this is just what was made public. I am sure there were more hidden favoritism.

Primary method for most T2 items to enter the game is Invention, which creates T2 BPCs.

T2 BPOs were handed out in a series of lotteries years ago, and CCP later decided Invention was a better way to bring T2 items into game and said they would never release T2 BPOs again.

This has been a long time coming, but I can't blame anyone who bought a T2 BPO later for being a bit miffed. It's kind of ridiculous to have something like that just plain deleted.

Do you have any proof of such favoritism? I'm not saying it could not happen, but if you are going to make that kind of accusation without passing out tinfoil first, I'd suggest a better argument based on less unfounded jealousy and/or hysteria. That matter was addressed a long time ago.

What about the 99.99% of the rest of the players who participated and who earned their BPOs fairly by grinding research agents and were lucky enough to draw one in the lottery. I had one once, and nobody gifted it to me or did me any favors.

Touched a nerve?

CCP knows that T2 BPO's are bad for the game. The majority of the player base knows it is a broken part of the game. They need to go, and I am glad that CCP is going to do this. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

And, I don't have to have a better argument or proof. This is the EVE online forums, not a court of law.

*raises hand*

I, for one, don't think they're broken. I don't own a T2 BPO, nor do I have enough ISK to ever afford one, but they should straight up stay in the game, especially if the invention system will allow someone to come into the T2 production system on par with a T2 BPO owner. Wasn't that the whole point of invention in the first place?

Going in and erasing the assets of someone that either earned them or paid a big chunk of ISK on them is stupid on CCP's part especially since they tout the 'sandbox' nature of EVE. Arbitrarily erasing something like that (just that alone) and not providing some form of compensation really does ruin EVE and CCP's reputation.

I guess its time for all BPO T2 owners to start copying like there is no tomorrow :P copier machine is this way >>>> GOGOGO!

I have a 650mm Artillery Cannon II BPO I'm pretty sure that it wasn't favouritism because that one is shite.

Invention can never match a BPO. Production from a T2 BPO less than half as much build materials as an invention build, not even counting the cost of doing the invention itself. That sucks. But where it's completely broken is where a single T2 BPO can completely shut down all invention for a particular item, if you've got the right BPO. That's just not acceptable, no matter how much you paid for that BPO.

What I want to know is why a member of the goon economic warfare team is creating this thread at all.

What does he have to gain by it?
Trolling for tears?
Actually curious about the opinions of others after years of gloatingly stating "your opinion means nothing".

This entire post is completely out of character, and I am curious why it was created.
