So, new players get an advantage in as much as they don't have to pay out for a clone, but those of us who have been playing for a while and have paid out a *lot* of ISK for something we now can't use and we don't get that back?

Doesn't sound right to me, but then what do I know?

Your monthly fee doesn't guarantee that you'll keep your possessions, it simply guarantees that you'll be able to log into the game (provided you've followed the EULA and are not banned).

Also, veterans benefit MORE from not having to pay for replacement med clones, because those used to cost in the tens - hundreds of millions of ISK, whereas a newbie's clone was a measly couple hundred k.

So, we kinda like that particular change. Thus, you've posted an unpopular whine in General Discussion, so, just a friendly warning, put on your flame-protection suit.

If you can't use your clone anymore you might want to file a stuck petition.

As a courtesy to other forum users, please search to see if there is a thread already open on the topic you wish to discuss. If so, please place your comments there instead. Multiple threads on the same subject clutter up the forums needlessly, causing good feedback and ideas to be lost. Please keep discussions regarding a topic to a single thread.


Covered extensively when this "bug/feature" was first introduced and again here in this thread. This thread is thus sated and is now going to take a nice long nap.
