What is this guy on about?

I see no 'effects' conveyed other than a gold pod produced.

Where is the 'PAY TO WIN' here 'exactly'?

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

So the deal is that right now they will show up on your lossmail with price "unknown" but I asked around the office, and we think that something that isn't actually destroyed shouldn't show up as destroyed. So, we'll be making it so that they dont show up on lossmails at all very soon. Don't worry though, your pod will still show up in all it's golden goodness on all mails regardless of the implants presence on the mail, to show off just what a fancy flier you really are.

the whole killmail should be golden. golden killmails for golden pods.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

GP poster is complaining that the Capsule he's sitting in (in station, with the implant, and skills applied) has better stats than base stats of a capsule (pulled from autolinking "Capsule" I guess).

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

I plugged in the gold pod implant yesterday, but my pod is still green.

Edit: restarted client and it magic'd into gold

Since Aura won't say it, I'll just have to type it in local, every time someone pods me :p

You'd have to get someone to do that on your behalf if you get zapped back to a starter system.



That's why you update your clone.

I'm not really a killboard humper or a "pro points" junkie... but I *DO* rather like my ISK Lost/ISK Killed number as it sits, right now. I'm not gonna see 4bil added to my losses every time I don't warp out fast enough (which doesn't really happen all that often, but still).

I want to plug this puppy in, but until that question is answered, I will not. I don't want to make myself unemployable to PvP corps, and I certainly don't want to destroy such a rare item.



Normal implants show up as ISK loss when you get podded. Why would this one be any different? Seems like you're trying to get somebody to tell you "Everything is going to be alright."

It won't be.

Ishkabibble, man.
CCP told me "everything's going to be fine", back in 2003.... and they were right. I stopped caring about losing ships, and everything really is okay.

So today it shows up on km as 3.7b, but soon it won't.

Does that mean it is temporarily good for bounty hijinx?

It looks like the stable, accepted Jita Sell Order price will be 10bil.
For those of you who are selling your AU-79, I hope you had the foresight to redeem it in good ol 4-4....

I'm disappointed. I was expecting a golden pod with a shiny metallic mirror finish.

It looks kind of golden-brown [EDIT: bronze] to me. Hard actually to distinguish from a ordinary pod in some light conditions.

Oh well. All I wanted was the Rifter and art book anyways.

It's the same color as the Ishukone Watch Scorp, and I don't hear anyone complaining about that monster.

The implants do show up and I spoke with EVE-Kill via twitter yesterday about their value during pod kills.
They will be valued on EVE-Kill at 0.1 ISK when lost in a pod and their market value when lost due to carrying one in your cargo hold.

Not sure if this was fully covered here or not but wanted to let everyone with concerns know.
