That’s great and all, but did you catch how he responded when someone said ‘hey, listen, I run a bunch of accounts and literally _cannot afford_ this increase’? It was ‘just wait until Fanfest, it’ll be worth it’.

And honestly, telling someone that whatever’s getting announced at FF will be so amazingly cool that it will literally change their financial situation? That’s pretty damned tone deaf, especially when that same person is acknowledging ‘yes, the optics on this were horrible’.

No matter what they announce at fanfest, it will not make our wallet bigger so we can nor want to pay more. You want people with 10+ alts pay $270 on each in one go? Then be stuck in the game where you make the game worse every three months with new nerfs?  
I’m not going to rage-quit, but i’m not going to be sitting on all my alts. Tho, i’m not sure i’d like to play with only one or to accounts. It’s not fun for altaholics. (If you rage-quit, send me all your stuff, hf!)

If the price for montly sub was 20 $ when I started to play as omega, I wouldn’t have done this. Think about it CCP!  
I’ll cancel the sub for my alt and will PLEX my main with ISK. So, what your added value CCP?

maybe they announce that you can soonTM log in all 3 chars on your account at the same time?  
Only thing i can think of right now what would make it up for everyone. (nearly)

but would make them lose money in the end, so… naah… wont happen

This is dumb:

| PLEX Packs | New Cost (Total) |
| --- | --- |
| 50 PLEX | USD 2.49 |
| 100 PLEX | USD 4.99 |
| 250 PLEX | USD 12.49 |
| 500 PLEX | USD 24.99 |

It’s better buying 50 PLEX ten times rather than 500 PLEX once as long as you have a payment method with zero transaction fee. Do the math, CCP.

My feeling is it would have been more forthright, and more informative, if CCP had posted columns with the old prices next to the new ones for easy comparison, including columns for percentage increases.

The monetization systems of EVE are already designed to extract the max a player is willing to spend on the game. Alt accounts, plex, p2w…

This price hike is misguided because it will likely not result in increased profit for CCP/PA. Most players that don’t leave will adjust their spending habits on the game to maintain consistent cost.

Is it worth doing ten transactions to save 9 cents? At 1000 PLEX and up the discount kicks in. Check out the savings for 20000 PLEX… $1.63 per 50 PLEX. Only $649.99 to get that savings.

I just unsubscribe 3 of my accounts. CCP this is not good… you have take away most of ISK making activities, mining is 🤬 , ratting is 🤬.  
PLEX will be 2+ bil in a few days so thank you for that.

This seems to have had a weird side effect. I’ve seen people saying things like “They are raising the price for subs because too many people use ISK to buy PLEX for Omega and they aren’t making any money!!1!!1oneone!!eleven”  
Just to clarify: PLEX are bought with REAL LIFE MONEY and then sold in game for isk. This is functionally equivalent to someone paying REAL LIFE MONEY for someone else’s account sub and then taking payment from them in the form of isk. To say people using PLEX to Omega is robbing CCP of REAL LIFE MONEY is patently wrong! I’m not even sure how this can be misunderstood but… well… there ya go.

While not effective it’s feasible at least. Considering Jita market prices before the price change restriction kicked in, someone will glad to exploit to cut off this tiny bit of cost.

I loved production and mining.  
Had my Orca and my 2 alts with barges, and combined it with some Research and Production…  
never had a big income but had fun.

Got told paying 45 ech month to keep that up is just stupid… but well was worth it for me…  
than scarcity, than industry changes than this than that… etc.

mining income in HS is like 10-15m for an hour even with max orca boost (per char).

Production… well ore is worth less (good for production in that way) but ships went down even more… so… near to no profit… or even losses so…

than getting charged even more for the mess you caused over the last years?

Like burning your Office and asking for a raise right after it with just the promise to make it better next time?

Good joke.

my 2 alts are unsubbed, my main waits for the “Big Suprise” at fanfest and will be decided than.  
Suprise me

The prices haven’t changed yet, so one can compare the blog post to the store - though, this is far easier to do for subs than PLEX.

1 month 133.7%  
3 months 123.2%  
6 months 121.3%  
12 months 114.1%

With PLEX, the amounts only match at 500 (440/60). At that amount, it’s 125.0%.

One can go further with this and subs, mind you. 2x12 months _is_ $262.80 while 24 months \*will be" $270.99 or 103.1%.

PLEX is just convoluted because of the different amounts and various discounts. Though, one can look at spending _now_ $249.99 for 7430 PLEX vs spending _later_ $239.99 for 6000 PLEX. 96% the cost for 80.8% the PLEX. Hrmm, that has me curious about the current 15400/$499.99 vs future 20000/$649.99. 130% the PLEX for 130% the cost. Technically, it’s 129.87% the PLEX for 130.00% the cost. Yeah, PLEX is just a mess with the current schemes versus the coming schemes.
