I like the idea. Dropsuits do need modules and they cost a lot of money. So this way its not pay2win.

The problem with this is that you'll have BPO suits running more BPO modules, and so were back to the same problem. High end Aur BPO is essentially pay to win, but any corporation with isk to burn equates this anyways. I've heard EVE capsuleers can easily mine crazy amounts of isk in proportion to the cost of our equipment. The issue here is that casual gamers or those who are not willing to invest in aur, or an eve account, are at a noticible disadvantage. I imagine CCP wants to keep dust accessible to everyone, otherwise they'll have a F2P game with a limited number of players. Doesn't sound exactly profitable.

True dude. But militia BPO modules are an absolute waste for most part. There are pros and cons to everything. I just like the idea of higher tier BPOs and dont mind spending even 200000 AUR for those. Having higher end suits doent not guarantee wins too.

Just buy the aur version of whatever item you're after. When you've managed to spend 200k AUR then just buy some more. It's like a BPO that scales to how much you actually use! Awesome!

Dude I have spent over 240000 AUR so far on dropsuips and AUR mods. It runs out pretty fast when you are getting OHKed by dropships in the air lol. You should know

I like the idea of AUR priced BPOs being more widely available but only for Meta 1 and Militia level gear.
To introduce upper Meta BPOs would damage the over all balance and quality of the game moving it dangerously close to (if not outright into) 'pay to win' territory. The higher the Meta Level of the gear in question (suit, vehicle or mod) the more damage to the overall game it does.

Dust comprises a war between immortals where control of resources, rather than death, provides the true gain. And were loss of resources, rather than kills, are how one truly wounds an enemy.
Remove the risk of losing those suits, mods, vehicles et al while still allowing someone to field the best gear and you cut the heart out of both balance and fun within D514.

I strongly disagree, the whole point of higher tier suits is that they are strong but require high maintenance to continue running them, a bpo for AUR would simply be broken and furthermore p2win. I'm not sure about the rental idea but I don't agree with the time period specified, I would prefer day long rentals, with maybe 3 day long rentals at most.

We have seen standard suits to this point I don't think they should make higher when it comes to bpo because they are forever. I am cool with aur for a monthly rental packs that include using higher tier suits but nothing perm

I like the idea. Dropsuits do need modules and they cost a lot of money. So this way its not pay2win.

they shouldn't have bpo higher than standard for anything, all it does is create stagnation.

I'm not a huge fan of this for reasons stated by everyone else here. Keep in mind however that high cost protogear is meaningful only if you are not playing eve. I fully intend to start playing eve only to mine isk. I will always run protogear.

Higher tier stuff is for high risk high reward. With BPOs there is no financial risk, so it would be no risk high reward. I am against this idea because of this.

This is true, but how do we combat rich eve players financing dust corps? I intend to start playing eve so I can spam proto gear. This is in effect the same as upper tier BPO.

CCP has said for a long time that they intend to place constraints of some kind (the idea of a tax has been floated) on currency transfers between games so as to limit that type of problem. They've not yet released the specific details but have reiterated time and again that while Dust and EVE will eventually have fully integrated economies, they plan to take that process very slowly to ensure balance.

All that being said I think there's a very simple change which would mitigate much of the EVE/Dust currency imbalance.
Just shift the decimal point a place or two. If all ISK rewards and costs where higher it would change nothing for the D514 side of things but it would reduce the impact EVE ISK could have on Dust.

Normalize (doesn't have to be totally equivalent, there are other factors like production, transport, expend-ability and resources required for production all to consider when creating a cost baseline) the effective value of the currency within both games and things should be reasonably stable. Because at that point while you'd still gain an advantage by playing an EVE character it would be more commensurate with the additional player time spent working towards goals within New Eden and that retains internal balance (for a pure Dust side example, all of us who play in the beta will have advantages due to our player time invested at live launch even though there will be a rest. Another Dust example would be playing three characters in the same Corp and sharing ISK/gear between them).
