I also agree that something aught to be done.. It is wasted real life money otherwise..
We bought them on the pretense that we would always be able to use them, now that's null and void. I personally don't want to spec into minmitar gear now.. which means i can't use it, so real life cash is just sat there for nothing.
Now i'm not going to die over it if nothing is done about it.. it's just a tad annoying really.. Would be nice if something were implemented to make it feasible to use it without having to spec racially into the skills considering the skill cost.
A refund would be nice.. but then i'd be wanting a bpo of the similar style but in the race i pick... that's not available so i'd likely just end up spending it on boosters.

OK first you tell us we will be getting back the Aur we spent on BPO's then you change your mind? Militia BPO OK whatever they can still be used with spending skill points. Dropsuits however are a different story.
I spent full price (About $10 in AUR) for 1 Logi Sever Suit about 2 months ago, because the suit was good forever, and cheap to spec into. Now I have a useless $10 BPO sitting in my inventory unless I want to spend 1.9mil SP specing into a racial suit that I don't want or like. NTM, I have always been a tanker first and I don't have 1.9mil extra SP lying around.
I understand some people bought alot of these suits when they were 30 aur, I wish I was playing and bought it when it was that cheap BC then I wouldn't care.
There are many easy fixes for this that can keep everyone happy and prevent the people who took advantage and bought alot of them for 30 Aur and are now looking to rake in the AUR. You can do any 1 of the following.
1. You can refund only 1 suit per person, because no one needs to have bought more than 1 suit per merc. 2. You can check your logs which you obviously keep and refund the original purchase price. 3. You can make the Sever suit like the dragonfly suit and require no skills to use.
Anyone of these solutions should be relatively simple, and fair. Something needs to be done about this, because I and 98% of people that own that suit feel ripped off.
But i think suggestion 3 has merit to it.. It would mean we could hop straight into it.. i even wouldn't mind so much if the stats were nerfed on it if it.. just something cheap to use so that we can support our guys even in a cheap fit..
Anyway... +1

But you better send email to support instead of making forum thread. Forum threads about refunds are useless. CCP said they would refund it, and then during patch downtime they changed their mind. That, I take it, is his problem. They changed their minds about the aurum assets because of all the big heads bragging about making 19mil aurum on respec, even though they were blowing hot air to show off. If people were to make 19mil aurum then no one would buy aurum and ccp would not be getting paid. So a justified decision by ccp.
Yeah i agree with you here that it was justified.. but there's alternatives.. such as what i quoted from Zombie Supreme just above from another post.. think it would be a viable solution making the the suit have no requirements just like the dragonfly suit... i wouldn't even be annoyed if they reduced the stats accordingly either.. would just like to use what i paid real life money for really.. If they dont make any changes and we're stuck the way it is.. oh well.. how often do we all fritter money away in real life anyway... Just would be nice if something could be done about it, would be a nice curtesy considering it's useablity has completely changed, and noone wants to be forced down a racial path just because of a bpo they have...
So yeah.. i'm not being forced down the minmitar path and have written it off.. but would support any action for it to be changed so it's useable by all again. Just kinda sucks to buy something then not be able to use it :) |
