The two-month pilot phase of the Recall Program will be over at the end of May, and it’s time to start looking into how it fared.

Based on the great feedback we’ve received thus far we’d like to bring it back again later in the year, possibly even making it a permanent fixture in the EVE Universe – but for right now it is on hold while we evaluate.

Look forward to more information on the Recall Program in the coming weeks, but for now we'd like feedback in this thread from those who used the recall program, and how you felt the experience and rewards were.

Cheers!

I liked it. What will happen to the Mackinaw skin now? Will it become available in other ways? Roll

For reference, onn June 1st the invites will stop being available, and after that time it will also not be possible to activate the free 7 day period, but for those who activate before June 1st and then subsequently subscribe, the rewards will still be delivered for you guys.

I assume these activations will be lumped in with May rewards, then? i.e. If I had 2 rewards granted and got a third successful recall subscription on June 1st, I get the 3rd tier reward?

Would be nice if the resub had a little grace period - three to seven days, so that if the returnee does return based on their free seven days you get credit for it despite whatever reason that may prevent them from subbing during the 7 day freebie period.

Cloaking is the closest thing to a "Pause Game" button one can get while in space.

If I read this correctly, it means that if someone has a Recall invite sitting in their inbox right now that they haven't yet acted on, then they will not be able to?

I hope not, because that kind of being snubbed doesn't seem like it would help you lure older players back.

It would had been nice to know characters that used your recall offers, now it was like "oh goodie I have 2x mackinaw paint prints and a plex" and that was that.
No way to actually contact anyone using your code for recruitment or pretty much anything but then again no one thanked or contacted me about the offer either even though they knew the character whose code they were using.

I used it. LAME!

clothing? ship skins?

GARBAGE!

Offering such stupid, petty, lame things that only the most ignorant and asinine players would have any interest in, was an insult.

It just pissed me off.

Ship skins to sell for hundreds of millions? A free plex? a unique clothing item that others might buy? Right, because who in the world would want free, valuable unique rewards just for helping encourage someone to come back to EvE?

You LHA Tarawa are the sort of person who gets their movie passes for free at the theatre, then swears at the theatre staff because you didn't like the movie ending.

Well, I used it on my alt to reactivate my main account, and my buddy got the reward for reactivating my alt, so - score. It seems to work.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

Hello everyone,

I've been searching around the forums but haven't found anything regarding an update on the recall program. I have another account I haven't used in a while and would like to reup but if the recall program is coming out "soonish" then I'd rather wait since that would make the most sense.

Appreciate any answers!
