Again I see that people just aren't up-to-date. You don't need PLEX for Aurum. You still can convert them for a higher amount of AUR you can buy (which is 3500AUR/Plex), but you can also buy Aurum from the account management page directly (2500AUR max), and have been able to since the Inferno 1.1 patch.

I have said it on more than one occasion:

- Your FW rank on the flank of your ship

- Decals indicating [important] kills on the flank of the ship [ship-type dependent, number dependent, faction dependent], think combat aircraft sporting such decals during war

- The corporations and/or Alliance decal, displayed on the flank of the ship

- The creation of a unique uniform, specific to a corp / alliance

- Miniatures of the Medals you were awarded, to be affixed to said uniforms

- A trophy case in which said Medals could be displayed within the Captain's Quarters

- A frame to which a screen shot could be associated, of an important event in EVE, to be displayed in the Captain's Quarters

- Movie experiences [safaris] where CCP's outstanding marketing team could create movies of the quality used in the announcement of new expansions, where players would be guided along dangerous routes and shown sites and structures in space that were 'heretofore unknown to the capsuleer'

- A corporate / Alliance livery applied to the ship, so that fleets would have a unique and customised look as they present themselves on the battlefield

- A means of gifting someone any of said items

None of these would be pay-to-win, they all go to deeper immersion and expression of what it means to be a pod pilot. They could be affordable and they wouldn't have to cost a monocle, say, so that the threshold would be low and people would actually want to invest in them. Many of these would be recurring sales and I believe, because there are quite a bit of vanity items there, people would be happy to spend some money on them.

I want to add that I have mentioned a number of these to CCP Unifex at fanfest last year and, since you all know that none of these items are there, you should take these ideas at face value because CCP clearly has not deemed them important enough to implement.

How say you?

Guns.

So we can shoot each other in station.


What? Meh. F**cking door.


Entire special shuttles and pleasure craft perhaps. There needs to be a "bridge" between the NeX store and "in space". Not "golden ammo" of course, but mainly cosmetic stuff.

The closest we come is the "golden pod" but that does not come from the NeX store.

Since NeX is PLEX to Aurum meaning RMT, it's clear that nothing should be purchased there to give an advantage in space, but the cosmetic value alone has much potential.

Yeah, people will pay for that stuff. And it's better than if they went and donated it to some political movement that screws other people in RL (fools and their money are better parted otherwise it makes them more dangerous).

I must admit that if I could get a string of Christmas lights for my ships I would.

Bring back DEEEEP Space!

As an alternative, they could sell stripper poles with built in "sit" animation.
Then capsuleers could sell licenses to newbies to make some cash on the "side."
Hey, I would hire a couple of Brutor hunks in a heart beat. P

^Something like that. Ship skins. Also some new hair styles (long hair for non-Amarr males that aren't dreads; mountain man beards). Hats

Great writeup Khergit! Maybe we should put that into the F&I?
