The faction BPO's were meant as a fun feature that would allow people to gamble and have fun with it. Instead of seeing it as a rare item that were suppose to be difficult to get most people saw them as things that they NEEDED to get and to do so immediately. So yeah, a very vocal minority ruined it for everyone and basically nobody was here to argue against them because the people who actually enjoyed the update are out there playing it.

nah most people wanted them on market cos strongboxes are just a f**kin rip off lol now CCP are refining the strongboxes i wouldn't mind so much if the faction bpos were strongbox only. personally though i'd rather just spend the 22k AUR and buy it outright than mess about with keys n boxes

That's the thing though. Faction BPO's were suppose to be special and rare. Making them available directly on the market made them no longer special.

no they were put in strongboxes to fleece the players into buying more keys in the hope of getting a 'rare' bpo.

axis alpha Namtar Elite Gallente Federation 595	Posted - 2015.02.06 17:57:00 - [1] - Quote I saw that since a lot of players begged for it, you can now just buy faction bpos. I for one was pretty excited for the rare bpos that you could only get in strong boxes. So since you now made it possible to just buy the faction bpos, can you guys please introduce a new line of bpos that are only attainable through strong boxes. I just like having things other people don't. Its like finding a pearl inside of an oyster. And I like to gamble too. Maybe make the bpos have a bit higher HP and or pg and cpu. Keep same amount of high and low slots. Idk something along those lines. Please? Sincerely Crazy axis I cut you up so bad.... You gonna wish I no cut you up so bad.

Having items that are -better- than equivalent ISK items is generally a flat out sign of pay to win. All of the current dropsuits are just a fancy skin, which while cool looking doesn't actually make you live longer or fit more stuff. As such nobody generally has problems with standard BPOs, as it's basically paying for a skin. As to rare gear: You already have officer dropsuits and weapons which can be gotten through salvage / rarely through strongboxes (note that they can be gotten for free on rare chances, and there is no 100% chance to buy them for real cash) These are the "rare" items you are looking for. They already exist.

They already exist. I'm very aware of the current of officer gear. But those are not bpo's. I could care less about what it looks like and even the stats. I just want something no one else has. Or very little people have. I cut you up so bad.... You gonna wish I no cut you up so bad.

It'd get abused too much i think. i liek the idea that they have for allowing certain slots to be changed on APEX/LP suits but for rest my bpos i just use militia gear for a fully free suit.
