EVE General Discussion

$75000 wasn't enough really:

So something a bit more than that.

Be the first to anchor the faction keepstar, that will cost you about $1.2 million or something like that forget the real estimated cost.
Anchor one of those though and it would become an instant target for everyone. Better put it in a C1 worm hole for the lulz.

I think the amount scales with creativity and the energy invested.

Be well enough in those and you have a resounding event from 0 bucks.


(nope have no experience, just intuition. But look at the Code. It looks like an event that only makes profit for 4 years.)

Because if i gather resources in this game i would like it to contribute to something interesting happpening rather than status quo.
As it i am unaware of where and how i can do that.

If you had a lot of money, maybe you could hire some real girls to play this game. That would shake things up. Even just a few of them might cause all kinds of cascading butterfly effects.

I think Lenny (maybe a different IWI banker) said that World War Bee cost like 7-8 trillion isk for the initial invasion.

At current RMT conversion rates I think that comes out to about tree fiddy.

One of the most notable things that happened is still my first lowsec roam. As a HS carebear I suddenly found myself surrounded by flashy red -10s in fleet. The quiet industrial alliance that picked me up in a belt in Gallente space turned out to be a very interesting lot.

And during the next mining op the other carebears in the ally wondered, what had happened to my sec status.

Notable fun times for just the subscription fee .

Honestly the Event I want to see are these. The same events we have now but with a CCP twist. Where any CCP dev or employee can queue up to assume the final boss spawn roll. They log in whenever they have time off from "werking hard hardly werking" and the system queues them up to randomly spawn into an event as a unique boss anywhere in New Eden. These are fully functional pvp ships that are identical in stats to the NPC ones but have a human at the helm. PvP against these and win and the loot drop increases, not severely but significantly due to the limited aspect. And because it would be a random employee and a random spawn there is a total RNG factor here.

The fact it would be different devs/employees would mean different playstyles and different engagements each time. Effectively you would log in and wait for the spawn, it would drop you into the ship randomly so even the dev didnt know who or where they would spawn against. In fact there doesnt even need to be a unique name change for ship type so noone really knows. you could even set up the devs game world to not include player names or system name etc to make it incredibly unbiased. Simply, X ship in random system versus you mano a mano. If you win, you despawn and go back into the queue and anyone else warping in gets the normal ship roll. If the player wins they either get to pod you or it is just a simply good loot drop.

These could function as a psuedo live events for CCP to engage with the player base without the CCP tag or a big production on a regular basis.

Cheers.
