CCP has almost certainly considered it, but rejected it. Insurance is mainly intended as a new player ship reimbursement program. It is the CCP version of what some player corps now offer. I think if ship replacement programs from corps like eve uni become ubiquitous and cheap, then there might be an argument for removing insurance, or replacing it with some kind of new player only ship replacement program.

I agree with your sentiment that in the future, it would be neat to see EVE NPCs involved directly in less and less. This is the direction things seem to be going and I hope it continues.

Basicly, dont insure anything unless you are flying t1 ships with t1 modules really.
Other then that, its a waste of money.


If you can ensure that your ship blows up before the cost of reinsuring your ship becomes higher than the max payout, it is never a waste of money.

Insurance. Always plays a sound bite in my head of a blackjack dealer when they're showing a face card. "Insurance?"

Help, I can't download EVE
