PLEX or paid, an active subscription is an active subscription. PLEX only means someone else is paying for your subscription... but you account is paid for in RL money regardless of whether you are using a credit card or a PLEX. To CCP, it's all the same.

Signatures should be used responsibly...

What qualifies as an active subscription though, if I've plexed for an extended term into next year could I qualify, or does it mean a subscription package?


If past experience is any guide then it means any account which has the ability to log into the game at the time the gift is seeded, with the exception of trial accounts. So PLEX or paid, as long as your account is active, you should get the gift.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

FYI - Implants will be on Killmails.


I will probably plug it into my main's head and keep skill-horing and use my PVP alt to die constantly with an empty head, as usual.

Hm, so I actually have to log in on the 29th to get the implant? Interesting.

Also, it appears to be a pretty clever move to get people to reactivate those idle accounts NOW.Smile

So what, with both implants, we'll get :

+3% Pwg
+3% Capacitor amount
+3% Cpu
+3% Capacitor recharge rate

With slot 1 and 2...well, good enough, but I don't expect the price to be so high as some think

So anyone with a pile of plex can set up a mass of trial accounts then put one plex on each of them to get the implant many times over. If the implant becomes worth more than the current price of 1 plex then you have made a profit. No tips here - seriously.

well, technically, the implant can be worth a lot less than 1 plex for this to be profitable.

Is it that hard to understand ? O_o


Thanks, and yes it is, there is a difference between paying for a subscription (game time), using timecodes and plexing. Or just plexing from IG and so on, they could be viewed as distiinctly different, seeing as they are. So asking for clarity.

So go sit on a sharp salami.


There is NO difference.

In each case CCP gets money for you subscription. Wether you pay it or someone else pays it does not matter.

CCP makes more money off PLEXers FYI, so if anything was exclusive to oen account type, it would be unique to PLEXers sicne every plexers is a guaranteed 19.50 a month while subbers only ay about 15

You missed the 50% bonus to implant set. I don't know if this is gonna work as the omega implant in slot 6 for slave and crystal implants or as an overall bonus to learning attributes. Whichever way it turns out, the implant is gonna be freaking expensive.

It's only blobbing when you lose, otherwise it's good fleet comp.

I've love this to be some kind of trap and open an exciting story arc where a whole bunch of capsuleers get infected/crazy/mind-controlled/etc.

I know I'd plug the hardwiring anyway Big smile

Why do you care so much what's on your killmail? It's not bad to use expensive stuff, it's only "bad" to use expensive stuff in bad fits. What's foolish is to have amassed enough ISK and assets to be able to afford expensive ships, mods and implants, and then never using them for fear of them appearing on a killboard. Why even bother making ISK in that case?

Do these implants last forever or do they get automatically destroyed after a set amount of time? Does that 50% apply to the other attribute implants or just bonus-effect implants? Do they fit into the same slot?

See this http://i.imgur.com/51DmM.png not sure about bonus, I think it applies to pg/cap/cpu only.

I think where he is getting confused is when the term subscription is used, a subscription is a recurring payment, if he pays by plex then he doesn't have a subscription in the literal meaning he simply has an active account for a period of time equaling the value of the payment method.

He just needed to clarify that item was not based on having a recurring subscription rather than just an active account.

Ok, question nobody seems to have answered yet... when taken together are they each a +3 implan, or +4.5's?

I'm looking at the bottom of the second implant, the CA-2. Looks like we'll be able to manufacture implants soon™

That's actually an interesting question while i'm certain the answer will be no, it is a bit confusing as it usually specifically states "boost secondary effects by X" .

Though many in the augmentation industry initially questioned the agenda behind Genolution's entry into the implantation field, fears eventually subsided as the implant was shown to be one of the safest on record.
