That would be kind of nice; and would of course provide an excellent avenue for our new pilot recruitment plans!

(I imagine the main problem would involve staff to vet any content put up on these)

Alternatively, let people pay 50 billion ISK for an ad placement on a CONCORD billboard for a single 4 hour run.


You limit the number of signs board, to some number that isn't crazy. Then getting time on a board is based on an auction. Supply and Demand. I like it.

Isn't there enough advertising in Jita local?

Do you really want to see "Double your isk!" at every jump gate?


...and if you're still wanting billboards, I insist on adding brightly colored neon paint cans so we can properly tag them.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

Wasn't there a ship that let players put advertisements on it? One of those contest entries from a couple of years ago?

Actually, no. It's not silly at all. Imagine the revenue stream for CCP with ingame adverts from Coca Cola, KFC, Domino's Pizza, etc. Of course, it would have to be relevant to the EVE universe, like in your video. IKEA selling furniture for POS, and a grand opening in Jita...

Maybe in game along with the occasional frozen food you find while looting pirates' wrecks, you may also find a case of Grolsch....

Mmmmmm.... Beeerrrr....

Watch this space.  New exciting signature in development.

How about an option to switch off advertising. Mine would be set to off permanently.


Actually could do with switching off real life advertising, wouldn't that be great.


Woah! If they took advertising away, how would I know what I want?!?

This has been proposed twice in features of idea, at least whilst I have been paying attention. It always gets a load of support, and very very few people object. Then the idea is ignored.

+1. In game advertising would make a massive massive possitive difference to the sandbox. Make it so.
