Does this mean all current T3 BPCs will be reimbursed into ISK? If that's the case, could you guys elaborate on what this price is and how it was/will be calculated? I almost want to bet it will be based on the new market value that will be slightly *scewed* come tuesday...
-edit- I see you aren't taking feedback anymore on this as you have just published the patchnotes for tuesday...nice to see you being very community orriented and only giving us 2 hours to state our opinions on this big change before you lock it in stone....when we've been begging for you to respond in the feedback thread for MONTHS!!!! |

I still hope they are only placeholders until someone from the writing staff is free to go over the modules and add more lore appropriate names. Doubt that will happen... CCP changed them over the years since they thought (new) players were too dumb to right click on a module while the old lore names of said modules just stalled their brain processes. |

Okay, and exactly how am i supposed to run 'longer jobs' if i can only run the max 10 runs off each copy to begin with? I didn't say "run longer jobs of the same thing you're building now." Not everything has such a short build time. If your barrier is length of jobs, switch to something that takes longer, like ships instead of modules.

Then you're making modules, and the entire discussion of the ship skills is irrelevant to you. So why on earth are you whining about it? |

as a part-time industrialist, the changes represented here are for-the-most-part good, and seem fairly balanced. Yeah, sure, there will be market changes and different requirements for building pretty much everything.
i dont care.
these changes affect everyone evenly, even if not everyone has the same skill sets built up. that's fair.
that's what i care about. fairness.
if your skillset is greatly impacted and you think you have a legitimate ( ie you can work out the math and prove it ) concern, go ahead and bring it to their attention. but dont go on crying and carrying on with it. that only makes you look childish.
Thus Spake the Frigate Goddess!

The only thing i'm really mad about is the dropping of stuff in favor of something else and me losing 25%+ invention chance cause they decide to remove meta level items in invention without compensating. Actually they are decreasing the chance across the board.
And with the fact that the market is ****** up already due to reprocess changes I will barely be able to keep profit on what I do.

Why does it have to be yet another TE bonus? We got more than enough of that with the (Advanced) Industry skill(s) already... How about considering something along the line of what I proposed in the invention bubble thread a while ago? Tl;Dr: Make the skills intended for TE bonus instead provide a small (fraction of a single percent per skill level) ME boost, that accumulates with all skills required for a blueprint. When chosen correctly the resulting ME bonus would be small enough to not represent a barrier of entry, but still big enough to have a nice impact for the serious producer (2 to 3 ME for a max bonus on a blueprint is just in the range of average specialized teams, so should not break anything).
Apart from that the changes look good to me ;) |

My market speculation crystal ball is telling me that this may make some T2 items go up in price a little due to the decreased chances of success. Less T2 BPOs=less production=less supply.
I was looking forward to the variable outcomes though. I do exploration as my main activity so finding cool things appeals to me.
Teams could have been used to help fill in the lack of meta module use for invention chances so I am sad to see that left out.
Not sure what this will do to the decryptor market as a whole but the more expensive racial versions are about to crash. Anyone who had Arbelest Light Missile Launchers in their hanger before the last patch can tell you what that is like.

Just had a crazy idea about this: What if you make the multiple outcomes be opt-in? And make them give a slightly lower chance to get the standard output if they chose that option? That way those that want predictability can get it and those that want some Wow with their invention can get that too. |

Now this my come as a shock but did you consider them datacores at all?
You those thingies that look like a bottle of some sort that agents give you one per day.
By all means carry on and when datacores become a problem, don't come back to me so I can rub that into your nose and I say I told you so (again).

That way those that want predictability can get it and those that want some Wow with their invention can get that too. It's quite simple: If the multiple outcomes option provides better profit over the long term than the single outcome, then the multiple outcome option is the only one that matters. If the single outcome option provides better profit over the long term than the multiple outcome option, then that is the only option that matters. If they're both exactly the same, then it's a pointless diversion of resources for CCP to do it.
It's a bad idea, and was repeatedly explained why it was a bad idea in the original dev blog thread. It's rather funny hearing people yelling that "CCP doesn't listen!" when this change shows they did.

hope you're being sarcastic steve.. seriously.. you are aware that folks do play the R & D agents missions.. grind up standings to use a better agent to spend their RP"s on datacores for specific sciences. right? right??
a very slow passive grind 100 RP - 1 datacore varying in science skill. more skill level you have.. the more RP's the agents provide you day to day.. there was not even a slight mention of it.. they once thought about removing it.. now I don't know what they'll do..guess it fits in the "we'll come back to it in the future" statement they love to use like nanite paste!!!!!
I think the dev completely over looked that.. I think he forgot all about it.. seems ccp spreads their limited resources around so much that things get overlooked.. and decides to just steamroll on in. |

CCP has said many times since 2012 that they don't like the passive gameplay associated with Research Agent Datacore farming:
Quote:A change mentioned during Fanfest concerns datacores and research agents in general. While we do acknowledge that initial the initial period to train up for high-level research agents take times, effort and money, we are not particularly fond of the passive datacore income in general.
Considering Datacores are obtained through Faction Warfare LP stores, and through Exploration, they have added enough active methods to obtain Datacores that maybe they should consider phasing out Research Agents, unless there is a compelling argument for keeping them.
Maybe the R&D Agent missions need another look at what we want to get out of them, as I see all of the missions (Security, Distribution, etc) being just different routes for getting standings, ISK, and LP.
Would it make more sense to instead just have Datacores available in the regular mission LP store at a reduced ratio compared to Faction Warfare?

Sure, but there is a commensurate increase in usage for that decryptor.
Hell, there will probably be even MORE usage for decryptors now that you can batch invention jobs. Invention in TYOOL 2014 is heavily effort based, as the jobs are very short. Batching leads to a vast increase in the number of jobs you can grunt out in a given period of wakefulness.

How exactly do you refund blueprints at average market price, when there isn't a market for them? Contracts? Hoping the average goes back pre-Odyssey to give some of the long term Interface manufactures a bit of a break.

I know there have been a lot of changes to reduce afk plexing - from increasing the npc damage amounts, and removing cloaking withing beacon range. And doesn't a lot of the LP come from missions, rather than the plexes themselves? And you get more LP if you offensively plex vs defensive?
I might be wrong on all that - I don't do FW, I just like to shoot at them :)
