Hell, they would even have a hard time maintaining the unkeep suit outfitted with JUST basic gear. And once the game goes live, prices are probably going to sky rocket due to Eve player greed, and we'll only be given low priced contract to maintain our fittings.
Think about it. once this game goes live, EVE players will make our weapons (yes, even the standard ones) extremely expensive. I'm talking about guns jumping to the tens of thousands, or maybe even the hundreds of thousands for a single standard weapon. They'll do that just to screw us over, and to leech off us.
They'll screw us over even more by making contracts that'll only have a price cap of maybe 5-10k. You'll have to play 10 games to be able to buy 5 standard guns.
That's what this game will turn into.
prices are too damn high, and they're only going to get higher. We will all be stuck in militia gear once this game is finished.
I'm a terrible player, and I'm already up into Standard gear on all my loadouts. |

You obviously don't know much about economics or EVE, so I'll try to explain this simply.
The prices won't be super high because say everyone has a price that's 10 times what it costs to make. Then someone comes along and sells it for 9 times what it takes to make. Everyone will buy from him. Then someone will come along and sell for 8 times what it costs to make and everyone will buy form him. This will keep repeating until it's selling for the smallest profit people think is worthwhile.
The profit margin on most things on the market in EVE is very small for this exact reason (plus the idiots who think if they make something out of stuff they mine themselves, it's free, and so actually lose money selling their stuff below market value). |

You mean a carebear area.
But on the subject of prices I say they are TOO LOW.
I suck at this game and for some strange reason I am makeing from 150 k to 300 k isk every game.
Yes I know Militia tanks suck but its fun to kill a newbie Gunnlogi with a crap Sica.
The Gunnlogi costs 200k so once I have my tank skills up I can field a base Gunnlogi every match..
And I have plenty of salvage HAVs Sagaris, Surya and some strange sounding black ops HAVs that I think are Officer Editions.

Since the Precursor patch, I find that I'm having trouble affording a militia heavy suit fitting that is all militia gear aside from a standard HMG, but then again, I'm a mediocre FPS player, I seem to have terrible luck when it comes to the teams I get put on, the most recently added map seems to favour snipers heavily, and I don't tend to play more than a few matches at a time because of freezing and loading screens I never get out of.
I'm going back to playing Eve for now... |
