Gotta say that as a dedicated industrialist for the last 5 years almost ,that im not welcomeing the new changes.
CCP says its refined and focused on industrial work, but in fact what they have done is make it harder for us to make a liveing out of it.
you have taken away the ability to remote reserch,copy and invent from stations to pos's while saying that its easier and quicker to stick multi million if not billion isk BPo's directly into pos's for a time advantage.

Lets get real for a second.
No experianced industrialist in there right mind is going to put a billion isk plus bpo into a pos to copy or reserch with the new system as its too much to risk if we get wardecced and attacked.

And it will happen as i personaly know people in game who are swapping corps to get ready to solely wardec indy corps who have pos's, so they can take em out in the hopes of bpo's drops from labs.
So all you have done is create more war and conflict and encourage assholes to be bigger assholes against the people who make them their equipment.

Secondly forceing industrialist to travel all over eve to make profit from stations near and far is just shortsighted. i wont be doing it and neither will many others ive talked too.
In fact what we are going to do is stop manufacturing for the market and just do it for oursleves, as its all just too much effort for too little gain.

Bitter Vet you may so. i say im a realist.

you reduce the isk people can make from one patch to the next and expect people to just suck it up.
well this little bunny has had enough.
i run 13 accounts and 30 toons and have finaly decided to call it quits with industry work as its just getting all too hard.
the last 7 subscriptions have lapsed and wont be renewed and am just going to operate on 3 accounts. and thats if i even keep playing.

The problem in this game is theres just too many assholes who seem to get there kicks from makeing other people's lives hell. And the number of them is increaseing from year to year, makeing it harder to recruit new players and even harder convinceing them that this used to be the best space MMO out there. Which of course now its not anymore thanks to CCP's short sightedness.
I agree its hard to cater for all players. But it can be done.
Ive sent CCp many emails over the years with idea's and suggestions to keep indy people interested in the game and to keep new people who come into the game safe. all of which have fallen on deaf ears.
So keep going down the path and this game will be reduced to just one thing. Another game to look back on and say, yes i remember eve. it was really great game onece upon a time.
Something to think on.
