So according to the post on the Fanfest 2015 page the three Quafe branding ships will be available to us poor folk who can't make the actual live event. Has there been any more on where? when and how?

Second,

The ship from the Worlds Collide even. Is that go to everyone on the winning server or is it everyone is getting one.. the line in the article is not quite clear.

Thanks,

You'll no doubt be able to buy the Quafe-Edition ships from other players on the market,

And as for the Victorieux Luxury Yacht,
"every player active on the winning server" is pretty clear-cut.

Just to clarify. Every active acount will get one. You don't have to be active/online in some special timeframe or something.

He's been a little tardy with that whole "more on that later" thing. Nearly three months and not a word.

That rumor might well be what's fueling the rapid price drop on these ships in Jita today. Not that I'm complaining, mind you. While I have set aside a bunch of PLEXes assuming the HD stream will include the ships, I'm also fine with buying off the market at a fraction of what they were offered at previously.

Previous years those at home were able to get the Fanfest specific ships by buying the HD Stream, but as that is now free, we are offering the Quafe ships as part of various game time purchase options.. We will be sharing more information on this very soon!


No need for PLEX for HD stream this year!

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I guess I can take the tin foil hat off now. My head was starting to get a little sweaty anyway.

But these guys...soon, later, in a bit, we will be...It would be nice if just once they actually had a plan before announcing something.

somewhat limited edition as there will only be so many SKINs. although each player will only need one, and they can reuse it, so that way at least people will use them.

I'd guess they sell the quafe SKINS in the NES.

personally I prefer the system where people use things, rather than collect station spinners.

With regards to the Quafe ships, there'll be more information coming at the start of next week regarding availability of these.

The yacht for the victors of the Worlds Collide match will be distributed to the entire winning cluster. Everyone will receive one.

That's dev-speak for 'We still don't have a clue what we're going to do about this yet.", isn't it?

If someone wants to start a pool as to how 'soon' we get some info, I'll throw in a guess and 10m ISKies.

Do you have to be online/logged in? Or if you have an active/subscribed account is this sufficient?

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

As far as i've heard??? Having a subscribed account is enough, you just have to log on to claim it through the redeem items system.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

Getting the quafe ships is going to work like this (my prediction)

Sub for 3 months get one. 6 Months 2 and you get all three if you get a 12 month sub.

Only 131 USD and they're yours, Storm.

That's a little rich for me just to have a possibly limited issue Domi. Though I'm sure many are bugging their parents for the use of their CC right now.
