EVE General Discussion

Lots of old rich players were are going to leave the game anyways decided to take their isk and ruin it for everyone?

I don't know. That is what I am doing. Before I go I am buying a few hundred billion isk of Plex to keep it off the market, then unsub all of my accounts.

Don't be so sure... watch the price as we type. Someone is getting out early

When the garbage is cleaned up, does it not get better?

That is only if new players dont come in their place. Let the old vets leave. Those of us with a more community game mentality will build a better gameplay environment that is actually inclusive... If CCP is in this for the future still.

Tbh, cheap ISK creates a bigger problem than the PLEX price. It kills the "shakes" and it kills the ability to inflict meaningful losses to your opponents, both the trademarks of EVE for a long time. Kills of 1 or 2 billion ISK are not even being look at a second time, supercarrier kills are like "yeah, nice, let's move on" and losing a faction / T3 fleet is not worth the effort of lifting an eyebrow, all because we know they are easily replaced.

This hurts EVE more than the PLEX prices. Cheap ISK makes the game boring.

Incidentally, it also drives the price of PLEX since that's one of the few ways one can safely invest all that lumpen isk.

Its when you have a game of vets with years of neglecting the "jesus" features, economy with ISK fountains and trying to be relevant on ps3, or other platforms and not your key clients. Now you get the term bittervet. Its essence is in that cheap ISK flooding the market.

Its our end game. Chinese got it few times earlier already. Their Vets are aquiring their status really fast, same as ISK.

Isn't it because more people are actually going to null with the anom buffs?

The price of a desirable good going up tends to get the economically deficient into a frenzy.

Another group of people affected by plex price. Tippia, Salvos have you read this post and understood it? This Ceo has obviously asked his corp members why they are leaving the game and they have told him it is partly to do with plex price. This is key information for CCP and plex traders to work off of.

So, now we have 1 less corp in Eve, this one helped players boost standings which is honorable.

Based on the RL plex price being £16.99 in the UK and the isk plex price being 1.3b, £1.00 seems to be worth approx 76m. If the RL plex price was £9.99 we could see an isk plex price of 760m. So people who buy plex for RL cash will still get a good deal and because players would be in a better position to plex more than 1 account we would see more plex sales in game, and obviously more RL plex sales for CCP. The only thing that will change is the monthly grind for plex users won't be so hard.

Honestly, the plex traders are just trying to get some value for the RL cash they spent because it is expensive compared to the sub cost. My solution above will get plex users back in the game and boost the economy, we could have the 5 account miner back flooding the market with minerals making everything nice and cheap, more players in game means more to shoot at, and CCP will solidify their existing customer base and give new players who want to play an easier goal to achieve for affording plex.

We can't continue to ignore posts like the one I quoted and pretend there's nothing wrong, CCP must act before it is too late.
