Because I love EVE and I've been playing since 2004 so I really want to buy it but there's just no incentive what-so-ever.

... then you don't want to buy it

i mean trying to find a reason to buy something you don't like, just because it has a certain brand on it, is not thinking very well, is it? Straight you don't need to rage over people who do like it

you attack a dude for saying he likes it despite his not going to use some parts of it, calling him a 'fanboy'

but you say you're wanting to buy it despite not liking any of it, then start getting angry

that's not very clever, is it

You like all the little Dust stuff that you'll never use?

OK what I want are responses from people who aren't complete fanboys of CCP.

What you just said was basically this:

"Yeah I love it all, I don't care what useless crap they throw at me, as long as it's from CCP it's all good."

You will NEVER use it, just using your words. Think about that for more than one nano second.


I play DUST. I actually even LIKE DUST. I accepted the fact that DUST wasn't Call of Duty or Battlefield when they didn't call the game Call of Duty or Battlefield. I play DUST because it's DUST, it's something I can pick up quick and put down after a right and not deal with bs from coalitions every single time I log in.

So to that end, I like what I'm getting in the CE. All of it, as a matter of fact.

And if you don't think DUST is 'developed' enough, let me show you an EVE that was less than a year old...

_It's very simple, really. If you see Tengus on scan, they are ratting. If you see a shitload of Tengus, the Russians are blobbing. If you see Proteuses on scan, they will be on top of you in about a second. If you see a shitload of Proteuses, the big boys are having a goodfight. _

I don't buy it because there's a huge price tag and they adverse it with DUST stuff. This is about 10 years of EVE and not DUST!

Well then to all of you fanboys out there who is so blindly in love with CCP you can't see the forest for the trees;

Enjoy the CE and all the fabulous Dust items you get with it. Perhaps somewhere along the road they will make use of your mystery code and give you a Tash-Murkon Ibis.

With the same stats as a regular Ibis of course Blink

Celebrating EVE's 10 year anniversary with something epic is hardly a stealth microtransaction, it's the bare minimum god damnit. Everything is tradable ingame, anyone who wants a CE can buy it and sell the loot ingame. No microtransaction there, just a way to praise a great game. No difference between that and buying a plex.

I expected something ultra epic.

How would you feel if you invited someone to your 30th birthday and they brought you a gift.

Once you get rid of all the wrapping paper you find alot of stuff that you have no use for. About 80% of it will be left untouched for the forseeable future.

I can see it in front of me: "Wow nice.. a pair of tickets to a Justin Bieber concert.. ehm.. You know I don't like JB right?"

GOOD TO HAVE is your friends response.

Yes, the gift you get for your 30th birthday is a bunch of stuff you will never use. It's like giving a crippled man, paralyzed from the waist down, a pair of rollerblades god damnit. Sure he can put em on, but he will never actually put them to good use.

Oh yeah.. he wants you to give him 150 euros for it.

Enjoy.

The thrasher and tattoo can be sold for a quick 1.5 Bil which equals roughly $45. That's 1/3 the price right there.

I'm seeing buy orders for the Golden POD in the billions ATM.

Sell that with the other codes, get your money back one way or another.

"Free" cool IRL stuff...



Then why waste your money on CE just buy a plex. The dust **** is a joke who the **** plays that crap game.

I do (occasionally) for one, my son for another... and slowly my corporation seems to be acquiring a small population of the little buggers.

I've been keeping tabs on it myself. I probably won't get too involved until it's had a year or so to be fleshed out.... just like it took EVE a couple of years to actually turn into something playable (and then went on to become great).

It just seems to be how CCP rolls, but they make it work.

Give me the name of one Collectors Edition that gave you tons of bonuses in another game that you don't play. A matter of fact, does anyone here play Dust?


Okay, when Dragon Age Origins was released the CE came with a code for Blood Dragon Armor for Mass Effect 2. I believe other EA Games like Dead Space came with codes as well. At least DUST takes place in the same universe as Eve!

No disappointment here, since I'm not buying it, and the only thing I want is the symphony recording -- which some clever marketing exec at CCP should be selling separately anyway, Attention if they haven't already planned to do so. Attention
