New ecm balance? x isk per activation? Or maybe ecm has really high priced charges that are consumed every activation?

Or even better x isk for x minutes cloaked? Same as above with charges. No more infinite cloakers in your system

OP reminds me why Jump Clones should have never been added in the first place.

You guys should go back and start EVE over from scratch where lev1 mission payouts are like 150k including the bonus and the cheapest frigs are 1mill+. To a new player 900k is a fortune. Just say'n....

The distance from The Forge to Sinq Laison is one jump gate. Is it really too much trouble to undock, jump, and redock?

Do new players really need jump clones though?

"Think of the newbies!" has always been a fake reasoning used by people who want to get something done they don't have actual good arguments for, it generally translates to "I personally don't like it".

Tip to save a clone jump: Jita->Dodixie is a nice opportunity to travel afk in a shuttle while smoking a fine cigarette (or two and slowly) on the window. Would name the shuttle "just smoking afk" or so, I tink that would be totally safe.

I have gone back and started eve from scratch.

I was grumpy because i couldn't afford snake implants from the get go or fly a Vexor on day one. Roll

You shouldn't need to use jump clones until you can do enough stuff on the learning curve to afford jump clones.

These instant gratification marshmallows need to enjoy the Journey, not just the achievement.

I agree, return jumping to clones to 0 isk.

I am not using jump clones anymore, only normal empty pod each time.

I like this pay to jump clone thing, but to be fair I think when the passenger arrives he/she should be too ethereal to effectively push any buttons. Try to start up that spaceship and the hand goes through the console kinda thing.

Put ISK in your pocket it falls to the floor. And, of course, operating a trade panel would just be out of the question.


PS And, point of order: How is this not a whining thread?

So how many clones are wengoing to be able to stash in Citadels? Just the one?

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

CCP like to give us, the players freedom of choice, well so long as that choice is to use Citadels.

The issue is not the cost of clone jumping which may well be raised until it is financially impracticable not to use Citadels, but that there is any cost whatsoever for clone jumping.

In before CCP claim this is to help the new players which seems to be their default position for anything they do nowadays :)

Like the rest of us, if you don't want to be ripped off by scumbag, scamming NPCs, find a friendly player with a Citadel who isn't charging, or who is charging much less.

Those nasty NPCs really suck, but other players are really cool.


Shae, sarcasm rarely come across well in the written word, but your post is an excellent example of sarcasm. Smile
