Never hopefully.

Because 90% of all L2 players around the world were playing on freeshards for almost 6 years. Thats why its F2P now.

Eve already is free to play if you know how to make ISK passively.

Only if its a completely different server, a very small amount of systems, no capitals or frieghters and a skill cap limit of say 20-40mil. And then MAYBE!!!

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Never. CCP knows they would looks 90% of their population if they did this.

Why Can't I have a picture signature.

Also please support graphical immersion, bring back the art that brought people to EvE online originaly.

I, for one, would quit within a few months. I've played quite a few FTP games, and they tend to attract a certain demographic I don't care for (mouth breathing spastics).

I know sometimes it's difficult to realize just how much you spend on incidental things each month or year, but seriously, EVE is very cheap entertainment compared to most things... If you are a smoker, smoke one less pack a week and pay for EVE, with money left over to pick up a cheap bundle of flowers for the EVE widow upstairs.

Clueless entitled idiot asks clueless question. You have NO idea what you're asking for (other than "weeeh, WANT COOKIE!").

On the other hand this kind of server with a smaller limit (15M is enough to fly the most used ships in the game), and limited daily conexion would probably help to collect data and bring new nerds at the end of the day, because they would like to know what is like the real game vs the "light" version.

Why not.

Buddy invites. 60-day trials. GTCs and/or PLEX for ISK.
It's almost as good as free already.

How is Eve to expensive? Price is fine. If Eve became free they'd have to start selling hemorrhoid cream for all the butt hurt.

If you can't afford 15 dollars a month...or figure out that you can buy a plex with isk. Online gaming isnt for you.

Seriously it's 15 a month... A job get one. With minimum wage you'd need to work all of 3 hours to pay for the sub.

If that ever happens I know a now locked door that suddenly, as by magic, will open for me and the last thing you'll hear from me is, 'I'm outta of hereeeeeee......'

Pretty sure, looking at this summers mass rage, I would not be the only one.

NCSoft is a terribad company. I'll be happy if CCP never emulates them in any way.
