I logged into my trial account on eveonline.com, I then added time to my account by purchasing 30 days using paypal. As part of that deal I received an in-game item called a Cerebral Accelerator. I am being told by others that they did not receive this item when they activated their account.

Can someone please clarify what criteria must be met to receive this item so I'm not called a liar?

The page i see on account management says

Quote:

LIMITED TIME OFFER!
FREE CEREBRAL ACCELERATOR
STRONG ENHANCEMENT FOR FIRST 30 DAYS OF CHARACTER'S LIFE


so it seems that only accounts that were created after the offer started would get the accelerator is what i figure....

Hello Habba'al Zebul,

Free cerebral accelerator is a limited time offer for the new players who activate their subscriptions. It became available yesterday, so I guess you were one of the first pilots to receive it. Smile

Probably if you're a brand new trial account.

Thank you. This is not the character I have created. The character that I have created and did not receive the implant is : Grimpax

I put in a petition and have had the same problem. Created a buddy account, upgraded to retail and recieved no accelerator. There is nothing to redeem on the login screen or in game.

For some technical reasons the Cerebral Accelerators were not given to those players who activated their subscriptions with PLEX or Steam CD keys. We are working on fixing this problem; in the meantime, if you haven't got your implant in the redeeming system after converting an account to paid, please file a petition and our GMs will provide one for you.

this may be a bit off topic, but the ad on the login screen mentioned that, in addition to a +3 to all attributes 'plant, it now increases damage and rate of fire. can someone confirm/deny this?

Cerebral Accelerator - not sure if this is exactly the same model as the one provided through the current offer.

A question for CCP Spitfire if you're still monitoring this thread — is the Cerebral Accelerator offered to those who subscribe from a Buddy Invite? That is to say, if I invite someone using a Buddy Invite and they then subscribe, do we then end up with the Buddy Invite 30 days/PLEX reward, a rare ship, a NeX shirt, and a cerebral accelerator as our booty?

Also, will this offer still be running after the Winter Expansion, so we can introduce new players to EVE with the pretty nebulas, four different racial CQs, and engine trails?

Can anyone point me in the direction of more information about the "rare ship" offers?
