Defunct and Forgotten

Council Of Stellar Management Assembly Hall
1

Many of us have a number of expensive blueprints for sovereignty upgrades: Things like “Survey Networks 2 Blueprint, Territorial Claim Unit”. etc… They are all now "Defunct" as of about 6-8 months ago as you know.
I posted about this in the Blueprint channel in June and CCP did not address it.
I submitted a ticket last week and GM Baldur suggested posting to the CSM forum so it gets some attention. I think many are simply looking to have CCP delete the prints and re-reimburse the original BPO cost. For some of us, it was a substantial investment to have simply turned off at a complete loss. Hopefully the CSM is looking out for us and can help.

Thank you very much.

Imagine investing billions of ISK and years of research time just to get shafted by CCP. Again.

And when market goes wild because of some bottleneck, too much inflation or whatever, guess what? Shafted again.

Would be nice to get some comments from CCP. Is the shafting policy now new normal for industrialists and do we start pricing this risk in everything on market?

I think the csm is going to talk to ccp at the summit about it.

But dont hold your breath thinking youll get reimbursed. Most likely not since nobody was reimbursed after ess changes

On June 26, 2024, they said BPOs would be reimbursed. I don’t recall seeing more info since then:

NO-PAIN TRANSITIONS

To support capsuleers during the transition period, a comprehensive reimbursement process will be implemented in stages over the next several months, similar to those executed for other major gameplay transitions in the past. Recognizing the considerable investments made in the previous system, this program will reimburse deprecated upgrades, TCUs, and blueprints through a combination of returning material input items, automatically converting some items into new types, and direct ISK refunds for others.

Maybe you could ask them if they are ever going to put up the Test Server again. I miss it :slight_smile:

the test server does go up from time to time, but it is almost exclusively for content creators to get footage and material to make videos prior to an expansion, I’m not sure CCP is going to give people permanent access back to Sisi, however I would personally like alot more 1 hour mass tests that they do every so often

Can they make it available when they don’t need it?

I would say its not a question of “can” its “are they willing to”, which i’m fairly sure the answer will be no, there are some overheads for running an extra server all the time and the majority of sisi usage was not bug hunting, it was people pvping for fun and testing builds without risk of losing thier tranquility assets

Wow! A CSM who A; answers and B; has a reasonable answer!

Where the hell did you come from? :rofl:

Makes sense… Just was a good learning tool for a lot of us.
