Pirate Battleships are supposed to be expensive.
Navy types are supposed to be more expensive than their non-navy counterparts
Why are people complaining about the price? are you dumb?
Like another poster already stated.
I feel all Faction ships should be obtained from their respective LP stores,
With that said, maybe adding in chips like for the Astero/Stratios/Nestor would be all right, but you still need for the most part to use the LP store.
You want the ships/prints, grind for them or have some one that likes doing that do it and pay them for it.
FFS where do you think a lot of those implants come from (crystals, slaves etc), or Barge BPO's (well most ORE gear)....
It comes from the LP stores and the people doing the PVE.
Imho, allowing for more diverse cultures on the PVE side of things will fuel the Combat PvP side of things.
Just think about it for a minute or two CCP, if you really want to balance the Playing Field here...quit allowing for these prints to drop in sites and let the Hunters/Prey do their little menagerie of dances for this. |

again why are you crying?
they are not be nerfed, CCP is attempting re-initiate their high cost value....though i think this proposed method is flawed an nothing more than a bandaid on a wound that requires tourniquet and some stitches. |

this means all the industrialists get to build pirate bs early and stockpile
screws over the young industiralist again
how about for once instead of increasing cost to benefit veteran industrialist
try lowering the cost of everything else to help the young industrialist and screw the rich fatcat players
would be niceto see this happen for a change THIS is the truth.
hmmm, the truth.......???
I am one of those rich fatcat vet indy guys that builds everything else......please do on reducing the costs. |

The reason that large alliances are able to easily get a hold of these things is because they are just that: large alliances with lots of players, who are able to simply warp in, destroy everything in a single pass, collect every scrap of good loot, then warp to the next similar site. This is much the reason why BPC costs are as low as they are. Wealth tends to beget more wealth, and these guys have a LOT of resources (players, ships, and ISK) to work with from the start.
For individual players though, it's a much different story. We have to work our tails off to get a single copy of a pirate battleship print, and even then it's sometimes too expensive to build for us, and/or we don't have the skills or materials to make use of our hard-won prizes. Even then, when we're all done we've got ONE pirate battleship that we've put together ourselves. Or, we've got ONE that we've worked hard earning enough ISK to buy on our own.
What'll happen with both groups (and those in between) during an economic re-balance of these hulls and their cost to drop & build?
1.) are you not in F-Con? is that not a null group like your talking about there?
2.) If people want a level playing field( I am sure they do not) then they should agree to push towards regulating all Faction prints of this nature to the Loyalty Point stores and stop having them as drops. |

1. Yes, I'm in FCON. However, I'm still expected to make enough ISK to get my stuff myself. I don't mine (because it's far from my favorite activity), I can't really build all that much stuff. So, I go and shoot at rats myself, to buy myself the stuff I use to work with my alliance to defend the territory we use to make our money on our own time.
2. Confining prints to loyalty point stores makes the market slide towards the FW side of the house, where the most loyalty points tend to be earned.
1.) Ok then i dont see the issue with prints then......BPC's as a ratter should not really be part of your main concern, thats for indy guys.
2.) FW? no dont add them to FW.....add/place them in all the corp LP stores relative to the faction they come from.....oh wait Machariel already is in the LP store for ArchAngels, just stop it from being a loot drop now and we are good. |
