Funny that CCP’s own metrics don’t gel with yours - Their metrics show more people have multiple accounts/characters than not. So I have to assume you and a few friends = “most of us”
There is also the monetary side of it - CCP would have closed its doors many years ago had it implemented a 1 account per IP policy. Multiboxers have been the backbone of Eve for ever. Even “IF” CCP ever find a way to rid us of botters, it will have adverse affects on their bottom line unless they can somehow find a way to improve player retention. Unlikely unless Eve takes the final leap to “Theme-Park” and becomes completely micro-transaction based.
Oh please get this, I would so love to move my JF completely risk free. Nothing like risk free game play.,.
Good luck with that, be sure to let me know when you have it up and playable. Considering everything CCP has tried to copy and expand their own game in different forms, the latest being a mobile platform partnership, I wish you luck.
You do know how long it takes to train up a max hauling alt or a well skilled manufacturing alt? My main character has over 200 mil SP in Ship/PVP skills has been training constantly and has no pve/indy skills.
My 'choice" then is as it is now - I choose to play the game the way i want to, as in using the sandbox we play in as i choose, CCP take that ability away and they will be the biggest losers.
- PVP’rs already complain about the lack of content, LOL, Imagine if there were 50% less characters online every day - The tears would raise the levels of every ocean in the world.
If only there was even a modicum of truth to that - I would quite like only have to sub 1 or 2 accounts per month AND still play the indy side of my game as i choose.
Go ahead, remove all complexity from indy - And see online numbers plummet as all the indy guys now only need 1 or 2 characters on one account instead of, in my case 28 characters over 15 accounts. I’d love to keep building caps and supers with a single BPO instead of the 8 or 10 needed now and i’m sure CCP wouldn’t mind all those alt accounts leaving the game.,.
