An Open Letter to CCP from Current and Former CSM Members on the "Prospector Pack"

/ Signed. This needs to be stopped in the crib or else we’ll have a major problem down the line with ccp competing against industrialists.

How about a cash shop only auto loot booster instead if you guys at CCP are in such dire need of more monetization…? I bet that’d fly off the shelfs

Oh, have they manage to break something new this time?

Credit Card Please never ceases to amaze. Shame the amazement is negative…

Sounds like a plan.

I agree, clearly CCP could handle this better.

I’ve read too many salty bitterbear comments, like @Arrendis calling them “liars”, and it’s a bit much. I like CCP, and I’m generally happy with my EvE Online experience. I think CCP devs are working hard to improve the game, and they don’t deserve the toxic abuse. There isn’t some evil megalomaniac ‘Korean’ conspiracy to price gouge everyone. Anyone who really thinks that needs to calm down and take a break.

I’d be the first to join the protest if CCP banned ganking in highsec…despite being an ‘anti-ganker’.

It’s far better that the ganking issue is resolved via roleplay and content, than by nerfs or buffs. Gankers vs AG is content…and is the players themselves.

Highsec would be utterly boring without ganking. It would be full of all those P2W Retrievers sitting there for months on end…not even Dante’s Inferno could capture such a living hell.

No monetization of ship sales, being able to instantly buy and use a ship anywhere at any time is a game breaker

bring WIS back, sell cosmetics for plex, augmented reality DLC , the possibilities to make a buck are endless CCP, brainstorm a bit first

If y’all want to make money, I’ve been waiting years to buy more pink/white indy skins.

And as someone that also plays Final Fantasy XIV, I’m sad that y’all took away the CQ.

My daughters don’t believe me when I tell them that there aren’t any pink ships.

There’s the Eros Blossom skins. Not quite pink, but about half pink.

I don’t have a Machariel.

EVE Echoes then?

There’s are two different pink themed skin sets available.

Generally being the key word here.

Yeah we’re all generally happy with the game. That’s why we’re still here. Two days ago I shot my carrier at other people’s capitals and hacs, I had fun doing that.

But that doesn’t mean we are blind to what CCP is doing and the direction they are taking the game in – and that we agree with it.

The plex that is used to make a purchase with inside the NES store, does that go into a large pool account that in turn is sold back to players?

Reason for asking such is what if the supply outways the demand or vice versa and does that have anything to do with the changes we’re seeing?

No, CCP already has an unlimited supply of PLEX to sell to players, CCP don’t need any more. It’s just values they can overwrite themselves in the database. Digital goods and all that.

This is not the problem.

Now that I’m beginning to see the bigger picture of the broken player economy, I’m also becoming more convinced that many players have been way too harsh on individual CCP developers.

The latecomers at CCP have inherited a gradually growing ■■■■■■■■■■■ that took years of time in the making.

This ■■■■ won’t be fixed by removing poor store offers such as the latest one (though it would help a little). Solving this will be tough, if not impossible.

Assuming a little good will in all parties, these guys have my sympathy.

Dear oh dear

This is still going despite the lack of Dev response ?

Guys, CCP wont change, that is it, this is Eve now and for the forseeable future.

Adapt or quit. Simple.

You’re still here?
Apparently the forum is more entertaining to you than the game.

There actually was a response

And yes that was basically the response

While I disagree with the sale of ships direct from CCP for obvious reasons, at the same time, its very hard for new players trying to get into this game. Have you seen how long it takes to train to get into some basic T2 ships?
Today is very different from 10-15 years ago. Younger people expect faster gratification and I’m willing to bet most get bored of Eve due to the very long training queues. My new recruit logged off and said he’d be back in 2 weeks, when he can fly a covert ops…
Will he come back… Maybe…
