Really you people live in your bubbles and no one or nothing will ever distract you from your own personal reality will it, man I truly pitty people like you.

Plex could have a very detromental effect on eve and should that be the case we are racing towards it at full steam ahead.

For pitty sake there are some eve players who no longer have the ability to see out side the game so blinkerd are they by the flashing lights.

in summery forget production, forget mission running, forget mining, forget trading.forget 0.0 ratting, the only real way to make fat stacks of isk is incurssion.

Has it truly come to this.......has the all mighty plex driven us to this?

But in the real world making 500 mill isk in 5 hours would make this game very boring indeed it would suck the life right out of it surly. I have to question why you still play if the game is so easy for you?


No, no, no NO! Don't join it!!! Quit! Remember your anger at capitalism, yes, yes now show them who's boss and unsub!

If anyone ever looks at you and says,_ "Hold my beer, watch this,"_  you're probably going to want to pay attention.

Pay $15,00 per month. Forget about plex.

PLEX is for people who pay for the game with time, instead of money. You don't want to pay 15 bucks, then you'll have to pay with hours of boring farming.

The world is a community of idiots doing a series of things until it explodes and we all die.

I don't think you understand how incursions work.


They have a minimum/maximum amount of people per group, every person gets paid the same amount, as long as your in the plex or at the gate when its done.

There are some other details but the short of it is that its really hard to get overcrowded.


There are other ways as well, like wormholes, solo work in a wormhole can make you a ton of cash, 60m + an hour, and going up steeply as you look into group activities in wormholes.

I bought my first Nyx from a wormhole that we ran as a corp, it generated 70 billion over 3 months for the members inside it (about 14 of us).

And no, making money doesn't make the game boring, it allows you to instead explore all the other things the game has to offer since you are set for cash.

to be honest i'd only run incurisions if my main activities stopped generating me enough isk, and i have no problems paying one account with plex and one with money.

And to answer your OP, plex is currently sold for 19.95 euros, what it goes for ingame depends on who sells them.

I do not understand the OP. EVE is too boring to pay for? Why do you even play it o_o Maybe it would be more fun if you actually paid for it and then played it instead of spent all your time grinding to get a PLEX just in time to start all over again :|

Ok I and many like me were happy to pay 300 mill isk for a plex just so we could ignor the other 25 days of game time just to keep the chars skills going. But with the cost of plex rocketing as it is that is no longer an option. As I said me and many like me were waiting for the game to become more exciting in some way a vaine hope is must be said but none the less a hope.

I was happy sitting on the side lines just running lvl 4 missions to get the plex, but that is no longer an option as it is far more commitment than i am willing to give. So to make the isk to buy the plex in the same amount of time. I must now deal with people like you. to be brutaly honest, I moved to the side lines because of people like you. So I am faced with three options deal with people like you and make the isk to buy the plex, Pay real money for some thing I am not really ging to use or call it a day.

Calling it a day seems to be the better option, sadly I am sure many will think the same. I should mention in the last few months 30 players on my contacts list have quit the game. happy hunting I am sure your mother will be along soon to roll you over.

If you check market details the volume of PLEX being traded has not gone down. You are the only one leaving :[

^^ Exactly my question.


I find paying any money to be this bored in a game untenable, I am talking about the casual player here these are usualy the old long term players who have been there and done it.

Then quit. You aren't adding anything to eve. Just sucking up resources that would otherwise be used be more valuable people than you. Plex prices are not a problem in eve. Even if they were 3 bill a pop. The problem is jackasses who want everything f or free.

Edit: lol at whining freeloaders who think plex prices are some evil conspiracy. Were basic economics classes not mandatory in high school? Vote with your feet (gtfo) as you voted with your wallet long ago.

Yea, mean, evil me, teaching you easy ways to spend little to no time or solo, to make hundreds of millions of isk and play for free.


Sounds like a did the game a favor, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Yep as I said it was having to deal with people like you that drove me and many like me to the side lines. Sadly eve is full of people like you it just stops being fun when you have to deal with jerks with no life who spend 18 hours a day playing the game, who think they must impose their will upon you as you must be a lesser person than them because you are less commited to the game.

Sheesh get over your self. I'l make a trial account in 90 days time to see the state of play with eve. Player numbers are slowly falling now, we'll see who is right in 90 days time.

Op first with paranoid delusions about plex prices and now delusions about being driven to quit. Well trust me, we're not trying to get people like you to quit. We are tryinv to get people EXACTLY you to quit. Unfortunately teenage drama queens who won't mow one lawn a month keep making a big stink without leaving. Does your mom know you stay up this late?

Explain to me how CCP is going to step in and bring the price of plex down? If CCP starts to manipulate the market they have ruined their sandbox. There should be no intervention from CCP.

I am one of the few that is driving the price of plex up. I saw that the prices were rising dropped about 12 bil into plex at 340mil and have been slowly selling them off as the price goes up. I figure by the time I am done I will be up between 6-8 bil on top of my initial investment.
