Re: Aug Decompressers
I believe the line of thought is that is would flood the market, which is just dumb as it would also remove Sups.

Cap. Augmenter can be sold for more than a Sup. Cap. In my opinion that should never happen, so with this system in place it couldn't as 1 Sup. = ~8 Std. Though the conversion wouldn't be a direct 1:8 as the BPs would also cost money. So, let's say 1:5.
Stds. would also retain value(just not more than Sups.) as they are required in mass and therefore a bit harder to come by, as well as the tendency of many players to avoid building.
Personally though, I find the most appealing aspect of this would be to stimulate the market on higher tech augs as currently I seldom ever see people buying Sups., but instead see them buying Minor-Std.

Re: Aug Decompressers
I'd prefer 1 Sup= 1 Exe and so on down the line. there should be SOME loss in augmenters to counter-act markets.

Re: Aug Decompressers
Why not 2 sup = 3 exc? Imo, one for one is a bit harsh.

Re: Aug Decompressers
Why does there need to be loss? The loss is in the creds.

Re: Aug Decompressers
I am still lost, why not just creds? We can convert 2 and creds into a higher level so why can we not convert 1 and creds into 2 lower level? Nothing is being gained and credits are lost.

Re: Aug Decompressers
We might as well just have 1 type of aug drop instead of the 6 we have now if this were to go in.

Re: Aug Decompressers
I'd much rather just have the ability to camp certain types of AI for the various kinds of augs instead. Nothing more exaggerated than the elevated frequency of hostile+damage in Copper, for example.

Re: Aug Decompressers
Enkelin's suggestion makes more sense.
You should be able to go kill a certain type of AI and get a few of the aug you want each time you clear a DG of it for example.
A decent source of pre-exc. capacity augs would be nice
