EVE General Discussion

Sorry, for the harsh answer, but I think it is justified.

Funny wording. You think us who subscribe, are not clever enough to plex? we are though, we just chose not to. Lets be honest it does not require that much to get the ~1bill a month. That does not require cleverness but just that you have time to grind, so get over yourself. CCP makes many events rewarding those with time to grind.

Now you are annoyed that they want to reward to players who are loyal, but might not have the time to grind (Never having recieved the rewards of all the different PVE events). With all due respect, you sound like a spoiled brat, sir. Like you playing EVE without paying is not reward enough in itself? Entitlement removes the illusion of the very trait you claim to have, cleverness. I am fine with CCP rewarding all their player types. You don't see me ***** moan about the grindy events, how unfair it is to the people with no time, and they should make the reward available to me. In life you don't everything, now would be a good time to learn to deal with this.

What's all this about?

Just a heads up, using words like clever about yourself, can make you look arrogant, and modify the tone of the responses yout get.

Don't turn a nice gesture from CCP wanting to reward a subscribers (Which many games do tbh.) into something ugly just because you don't get it. That is selfish. You know one can enjoy CCP doing something for the community without being part of it, right? (Like I have done, with the previous events. I was happy that the little PVE bears got something to enjoy the game with, even if did not apply to me). You should try it, being happy for someone else, it is a nice fuzzy feeling. Don't pee on everyones parade, it is not a colour that suits you.

"Edit2: this is actually very unclear, on the german homepage it stands like everyone with active accounts for more than one months get it. I am confused now Big smile CCP should clear up their language used."

Which was my entire point.

Though I was not neutral in my questioning. I wanted to show my stance on the subject as well

And I don't see my point as petty

I too was happy with the pve awards. Gave something to do to many. But I did t have time to do it either.

In that case, you grind for x time and get y reward.


In the case of the subscriber rewards, Ccp basically wants x money for y accounts

My plex for my accounts is equal revenue for Ccp to someone who has subscribed for that time
Both the subscriber and the plexer meet the win condition. Both should be rewarded.

Who knows what the hell they had in mind.
Its always a mess. I never take seriously anything what they like to write there.

I'm reading that as "stay subscribed by either paid subscription or plex", but I could be wrong. No great harm either way.

No, the guy who bought the PLEX should be rewarded then, not you. CCP wants to reward paying customers, you are not that, no matter what mental gymnastics you do. You are just playing the game, making an insensitive for people to buy PLEX. The market exist so there is no reason to reward people buying PLEX with isk. With the introduction of alpha clones it also make sense they want as many subscribers as possible, as the general amount of plexers might drop.
So: you do not create revenue, the guy buying the PLEX does. So stop trying to ruining it for the people who actually had to put up some money. No hands- no cookies, just like it should be in a cuttthroat world.

They want to keep the people who took the 90 Days + 90 Days MCT offer in the summer. This is their leverage I guess. :-)

no sir.

because of the plexer, that plex has value..

if not for us, the damn thing would be worthless, and no one would pay real money for them.

do they?

I think they did not consider it either way.
