yeah, cable internet best internet.

I wouold kill for FTTP/FTTH here ... but it's apparently not a viable business decision at this point or some **** (Telco -- SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY)

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

ah, i just looked at the 'ccp' folder in program files for the file size. but i downloaded the client at an internet cafe who probably pay less for cable 'net than i do for wireless :D


The offer stays open. I'm not quitting EVE any time soon (read: ever), so I'll be findable.

I wonder if the BPC will end up valued more than the 5 Gnosis? The Gnosis gets given to everyone (I think?), the BPC is only in the CE


Oh most certainly! Once the Gnosis is introduced, it will be the most widely available "unique ingame ship" ever presented to the player populous. Although it has that aesthetic and cool factor, the price will carry "mediocre premium" over the other unique ships released in the previous years.

On the other hand, this unique BPC will remain TRULY UNIQUE to the Collector's Edition purchase and the value will be significantly higher than probably 100x Gnosis combined due to the rarity factor.

if I were you, I would not try to build anything out of the BPC and just keep it as collectibles.

Another question arieses.

I have 2 main accounts, one male avatar, one female. Will I be able to take the female avatar clothes from one of them and give to the other? Not going to use them both on one unless CCP allow me to go cross dressing Blink


As usual, it is most likely that these unique ingame clothing and accessories will remain tradeable at the market/contract.

You will be able to trade unused clothing to different characters or sell em all together.

Well, normally I don't dump cash for game items, but to me the $150.00 was worth the History Book, the Rifter and the Symphony. Will prolly dump the Gnosis (Gnosi?).

Oh, and prolly dump the Thrasher, too.

But I'm terrible at market PVP, so maybe I'll just wait a bit, lol.

At any rate, gratz to CCP for the 10th anniversary for producing a game that has had such a profoundly positive impact on my life and many others!

Yup usually when I order Collector's Edition for other games, I tell the sellers to trash all the physical goods and send ingame codes via email.

Definitely going to keep all the goodies that come with EVE Online's CE.

As for the market advice, if you are in need of short-term capital, sell the GNOSIS BPC in the first week of the CE release. After several weeks, price will most likely decline, but it will surely appreciate again in the long-run (and surpass the initial first week pricing) if you have the courage and patience to keep them in your inventory.

I am willing to buy your Gnosis BPC, in-game, as soon as you get your CE.
As long as you don't live in null, low, or Jita.

PS: I declared the plural of Gnosis to be Gnosum, two weeks ago, and it was agreed on by several others, so that's unofficially the way it is :p

Gnosum? I like it! Jarod, I will add you to my contacts and let you know in Oct. if I decide to dump the BPC. Orignally, I was planning on building all 5 and selling 4 of them, but for enough isk I will just sell the BPC. We'll talk more then. Oh, and I primarily live in High and havent been to Jita in like 3 years. **** that place :)

I would really like to be able to purchase this, but as I live i n New Zealand, it seems for some reason I can`t purchase it which is a load of annoying (insert .... you get the idea).

I wish someone from CCP were able to explain why we can`t order it from New Zealand. Sad

of course you can make up whatever English plural form you like but in Greek the correct plural would be gnoseis

It should, sense the game has to give the two pods separate database IDs to know which graphics to pull, and that database ID should also be pulled by the API. since in the API it would usually read something like pod_standard, now it'll read pod_golden or pod_deluxe or pod_superior, and isplay the different graphcis accoridingly

Although the contents are listed on the webpage, it seemed strange for the CE not to have a hardcopy of EVE included, so I sent an email and asked. A GM replied a few days later and wrote there is definitely no hardcopy and no plans to include one

if anyone else was interested vOv

•New account CD Key with 60 days of game time

Can this 60 days of game time be applied to a different account or can you only use it on the new account?

IE. I have 2 accounts and don't need another but would enjoy 60 days of game time on either of my existing accounts.

Can't be sure until someone tries the code, but it seems likely to be useable with new accounts only.

Did they just add this to the list? I don't recall it being there before...
