Actually, events and mob spawns and what they can drop is also up to the Planet Partners. They can create any event they want and spawn any of their monsters they want. But they don't because it takes work and they don't have funding enough to afford it.
Keep in mind that even though this game has expanded when it comes to livable area and planets, the actual player base has only gone down every year since 2006. You might not know, but this game used to be pretty big when it comes to player base, but now days we only have about 5000 active players, in a game that is 15 years old with an ever decreasing player base. Also keep in mind that MindArk has already gone bankruptcy once, and was only saved because of investors willing to put in money to save it. I'm sure you can figure out where this is going.
I don't know if you where around when planet Cyrene was launched. But holy shit what a failure that was! And people blamed MA for it, just because they don't know how Planet Partnership works nor how the mechanics behind the platform works. The actual problem was that the Partners of Cyrene had no clue how the platform works and probably thought it was all drag-and drop, point and click with the mouse.
Yes, space and all issues with it is MA's responsibility.
No events are heavily policed by MA. They can't spawn them as freely as you would think. ND gets in a lot of trouble when he spawns stuff during calypso or arkadia events.
Also what is dropped by cycling is also heavily constricted. ND has tried for a long time to get mining amps. He is constantly told that d-class amp has more cycled on it then any other PP combined(not including calypso). It makes up for about 1/3 of sold amps compared to calypso. Yes I have the numbers and am willing to share. So we do not get more mining amps. It is the same for looted guns/armor etc.
Please do not say it is all up to PP because if it was we would be on a much more even playing field across all planets. I am not saying that they should be free to do whatever they want but all planets should have access to the same or similar equipment.
I do not know how anyone can argue that there should not be a even playing field for PP.
