It is impossible to produce from and use all possible available BPC's.
Also i fail to see what's wrong with giving others the chance to produce their own Tech 2 equipment.
What you ask for is, that the production of stuff is killed and taken away from 80% of the player base.
BS with a limit of 3 copies will skyrock BS prices beneath 300 mils and higher.
Everything will be much more expensive, and everyone not in amegacorp, which is able to buy originals can go home. Also it would limit the production corp internal to the ceo, or would you place your originals for all members to produce from..roflmao
Also i doubt it's comparible. Tech 1 BPc and Tech 2 BPc.
There are 6 BP's maximum of each type .. compared to an almost infinite BPO supply of Tech 1. How can 6 prints flood a market??????
If i take an Interceptor of one type, you get arround 2 Runs per day, meaning a total maximum of 12 manufactured Interceptors of one type per day in the galaxy. And then none is manufactured. If you produce one Interceptor per day and sell one copy, what's problem with market flooding?
Also copying Tech 2 prints is very annoying cause of the db's you need to repair, the reports and datasheets you need to aquire..that's effort, no self runner and cost extensive.
I don't see the point how Tech 2 BPC can flood a market, when they are that limited in numbers. And if ya kill the Tech 1 BPC's, you cut of 80% of production possibilities and boost prices by x3 at least. THEN you can start to monopolize...No one will get a BS under 400 mills, besides those who have the cash to buy the complete set of BS-BPO's, which BBB and m00 is surely going to.
And about gaining easy cash on the BPC market..roflmao..Yeah it maybe was, but as it was posted already here, if ya buy a new BPO, you have to lock it 1 month to get it to ME10, then you have to spend 3 months hardcore selling to make that print paying itself. So please tell me, what's easy money with 3 months hardcoreselling and 1 months dead money ?? YOu hgave invested 80 mils for a Thorax, and get that 80 mils back after 4 months. Easy money? Lol. I need one week max to mine that cash. One day in 0.0. So again..what' easy money??? And please tell me, how a newcomer or a small corp who will never have the funds to optain fun in game? Mine in Firgates till they have cash to buy a cruiser original, or pay 20 mils per cruiser? Lol..sorry
I would agree if maybe the copies are in lower quality, or the original gets damaged on copying somehow, so you have to repair the original after a certain time, but denying copying, and killing the availablilty of items to 80% of the player base is more damaging to the game, then the BPC's ever can be.
