Benefiting off the backs of whales is a staple of many free to play games.
Here is a system that will encourage the recruitment and retention of big spenders into Eve player alliances for greater collective real money buying power.
Features:
-Whenever a wallet warrior in your corp or alliance uses plex to pay full price or CCP’s discounted price on a New Eden Store item, the value of that exact item is lowered by 1 plex for each individual player in the corp/alliance.
-Purchasing a discounted item resets any ‘whale’ or ‘ccp sale’ earned discount back to full price, per individual player.
-Items may list for 0 plex (free*), however if players don’t log-in frequently to take immediate advantage of redeeming items they may lose additional earned points from subsequent corp/alliance wide plex purchases.
-Paying on ‘non-CCP’ discounted prices does not apply 1 plex drop. No double dipping.
-Alpha accounts are only eligible to receive player purchase discounts on plex based subscriptions. Omega accounts qualify for discounted earnings on all items in the New Eden Store.
Example:
355 players in an alliance pay full 500 plex for a subscription. Other members of alliance see option to buy that months plex subscription for 145 plex (500-355). If a player decides to pay at this discounted price, their personal next month cost would be normal full 500 plex (before any new purchase point discounts started applying). A player may also choose to let it ride all the way down to zero plex before popping the bubble.
