They're in the market? I didn't see them or any other new BPOs last I checked today.

Nope apparently they are strong box only. The first lore worthy suits are with held by a paywall AND random chance.
Paywall I can stomach. RNG I cannot.

We are discussing this internally. This new idea, as in Faction BPO's in Strongboxes, that was supposed to be fun and for everyone is being viewed, unfairly in my opinion, as being "locked behind a paywall". If it were a better item, I might agree but then it would be pay to win.
As far as I see it, it's exactly opposite, if we put it into the market, then it truly is for AUR only, as it is visual customization.
Right now, anyone can get a random drop of a cool BPO, which, I thought was amazing, the first BPO that could be "gotten for free", not even grinding FW like APEX's. Obviously, it was going to be at low rates, to preserve the feeling of the rare drop, which I enjoy and most MMO players, which is why we raid and rejoice in world drops.
We are open to putting them in the market for AUR, but we are just honestly surprised by the hostile reaction.

I still kind of like the idea, but it just feels like there's no real chance of getting them. I was so excited about this update and the possibility of having Quafe BPO's and was more than willing to fork over the cash (Even bought two vet packs in preparation) only to realize that you couldn't get them straight from the market. I opened 64 boxes and didn't get a single one. If player trading was already up, things might be different, but the rarity of these drops (Given what they actually are, just visuals for the most part) just doesn't really fit. I could see if they were proto BPO's that you could fully customize, but as is, something like that being so rare is just... well, it's saddening. And given the fact that all of the new dropsuits, vehicles and weapons are only available through extremely rare drops, it feels like most of the update is available only to those willing to gamble huge amounts of money that are likely worth far more than the BPO's they're trying to get.
I want to punch.

Honestly, the idea was to have fun, and not "I need to get all these now and since I can't I need to pay". Our design was, take it slow and it will be awesome when it happens.

This is what happens when you put ******* in your soft drinks... people want their fix of fabulous now, not two weeks from now. Do you know what it's like having withdrawals from that stuff?! I can't deal with this and I'm out of glitter to boot! I need me some more!!!

No hostile reaction from this clone. I think y'all did it perfectly. Salvage changes were cool too.
My buddy got 3 of the Scotsman officer scout suits in salvage last night. Rocking it out and is the talk of the warbarge.
Keep the BPOs rare. That way if you get one you'll love it that much more. |

I'm on track to break 1,000 strongboxes today. When I look at my boxes, there is nothing in me willing to spend the value of a PS4 to have a random chance to get what i want unlocking them all. I know its hacked decrryption week, but 35 boxes is a drop in the ocean.
Would much rather invest aurm in regular does to get exactly what i want. Having something cool that players want , but the only way for players get it is to gamble large amounts of money is not very fun.
Its like getting someone a birthday gift, and on thier birthday you take them to a warehouse to spend the day searching through the entire place and charging them a dollar for every wrong move. They wouldn't be very happy with you at the end of the day woud they.
Put them in the market as well. You'll make much more AUR that way.
Redline for Thee, but no Redline for Me.

I get that.....but honestly don't have the time or drive to try to amass enough of these suits to use in regular rotation....... visual customisation is great but I'm not likely to get any soon or be able to use them in a meaningful way.
It's nice to look cool in the warbarge but again I've done the RNG thing before in Destiny and Dragon Age it's trying..... to say the least.
I get the fun's the goal..... but I have no definite means to work towards securing them.

I understand, and maybe specifically for the Faction BPO's. We are completely open to making them also available in the store, since, an Amarr may not be so happy with getting the Brutor, or vice versa.
Thanks for the feedback, we will return shortly.

Sorry.... I don't like having pushed something in this manner.
It's perhaps just simple frustration that some of the coolest new content from a thematic sense that I am sure a hell of a lot of people are just dying to get a piece of is hidden in the chaos of RNG.

Having played casually across four characters.... I have not gotten a single key. EVER. Not a single one on any of my characters since strongboxes were introduced.
At the rate a filthy casual player like me accrues keys... I will get a cool free BPO from a strongbox in approximately.... oh... Never...

If player trading ever hits you could make a really good economy for player exchange off of strong boxes especially if they contained ultra rare stuff that richer players and collectors would desire.......

I know you mentioned at one point you wanted Warbarges to generate keys.
Because of that, I'm pretty good with semi rare drops for the BPO stuff.
I will admit I was hoping for some different suit bonuses on the factional BPOs, but cool looking BPOs work too!
Also, peeps, they are working on player trading and all that good jazz, so cool your heels a bit. |

There is a 99% chance that you get 800 aur, or more of items worth from a strongbox, which is even better if you buy 10 keys in a discount bundle.
