i use 2 screens, 1 board and 1 mouse for 13 characters. its not hard to do
As a work-a-day slob who lives paycheck to paycheck asking for $5 additional of my dollars while so many other outlets are making similar demands ie) the gas station, the supermarket, the home utility company, the insurance company etc ⌠I would need to see more of a reason than a vague promise of âfuture contentâ to agree to such terms. How about a monthly plex increase award bonus, or a new exclusive ship hull design that can do crazy cool things, throw me a structure kit I can anchor somewhere or access to some rare ship skins that are no longer available. Provide some value for my extra dollars as opposed to just an empty decree for a price hike and Iâll give some thought to continuing to pay you.
The price is going up, that seems to be a pretty constant message. On the (why(s)) that will always be mixed, because rasing prices is difficult and there are many factors to the decision. Depending on where you sit in CCP it will look different. This isnât something for CCP, it is every company that is trying to make money. This would be the same for the Customer as well, depending on how you feel about the past, present, and what the future holds for formulating your opinion.
The transparency is the price is going up. More to come, but know that upfront.

PatheticâŚno it is fact. And CCP isnât the first gaming company to pay for studies and data like this. It is real, it is worth lots of money and far from pathetic.
And have you noticed the slight uptick in players online since the announcement? I guess everyone logging in to say good buy and set their contracts at Jita sell price and wonât take isk less, because you know⌠they are never coming back.
JJ
No, thatâs the direct impact to you. Claiming thatâs transparency would be like saying getting tossed in jail with no coherent explanation for why you were picked up off the street is âtransparentâ because you know youâre in jail.
If you do the 6-month sub, it isnât $20 that is only for month to month, you would only be paying $14.49 on a 6-month sub. Bump it to a year it is only $12.49 per month. It is only the one month that has a real spike in cost.
JJ
No that is a direct impact to anyone playing the game. Transparency in cost is letting you know something is changing before it changes. I think we can agree to disagree here which is okay.

good morning ccp employees.
well selling assets which were laying around for years and than just get plex before it keeps rising (yeah to late 2,8m-3.2 but guess thats not the end) isnt so dumb.
stop paying dont have to mean stop playing
or give it away to you friendly Nemrod from the neighbourhood, just sayin⌠its better than double your isk in jita.
altho i would have liked to see ppl make a stand and stop logging in to see if they mean it,
i cant blame them, couse they paid already⌠thats the bad thing if you sub for more than a monthâŚ
if things change in life you cant adjust that easy or have to waste it and just keep it running without useing.
the "its just xx more if you xx years sub⌠" blaaaah⌠i agree to your saying we agree to disagree and i am ok with that too ;3
btw i am transparrent, next month you give me half your salary
chuckles ok enought trolling for the morning. gtg
P.S.: employees couse we work for ccp to make content and even pay for it in a lot of ways (mostly with money) \o/
This is all just a business decision, if subs trend too low to make this increase profitable, theyâll reverse it. CCP didnât announce multi sub discounts because I would imagine they want to see if alt accounts do unsub at a higher rate where it becomes more profitable to offer assistance.
Itâs all just business decisions, no emotion in it on the CCP side, all this feedback is fairly meaningless, no matter how well you argue the increase isnât fair, if you keep paying it, you ARE saying otherwise to CCP. The market will always set the rate, you canât out-reason it, either unsub or donât and CCP will review this policy later.
âPeople arenât unsubscribing because the player log in numbers havenât changed that much yet.â
âBro, itâs been 5 days. Itâs a monthly subscription cycle, and alpha still exists. Plus a lot of peeps did multi-month sub for the discount.â
âI STILL HAVENâT SEEN THE NUMBERS CHANGE, REEEEEEEE.â
I think that about sums up a few peeps arguments in this thread, jeesh.
This is YOUR interpretation of it, YOUR specific set of stipulations for âquitting.â Thatâs like saying âYeah, bro, Iâm gonna quit drinkingâ and then you coming back and saying âOh, so youâre gonna quit drinking anything and everything but water and dump all of it thatâs in your house?â
Yeah, go back to your bridge.
Still no confirmation of prices outside of the US.
CCP are hellbent on destroying there own game and have been since the introduction of the scarcity/age of prosperity rubbish theyâve been meddling with things that donât need fixing and made mining and industry pointless,now theyâve put there prices up as a direct result of there dwindling player base along with there shortsightedness and gross incompetence.You never listen to your players (except the usual Null block big wheels) so now your game is well and truly on its way to collapse.Ive un-subbed all my accounts and and quit along with many fellow miners and indy guys i know good luck and goodbye!!!
what an idiot. most said they were dropping subs, not quitting. read the comments proper,
use the price converterit was posted many times in convo
That is useless. I would like confirmation from CCP but it seems theyâve not published it yet. Iâve submitted a ticket for clarification. Also Iâm not looking through 2551 posts.
its increased by 30% like all other prices
This is also true. I was just waiting for whatever clever comeback the clown had to my previous to re-iterate it lol.
In fact, IIRC, I saw a post up on the reddit(a place I hadnât been for a very long time, until this) campaigning for people to drop subs and STILL log in as alphas to use server resources anyway. Which, to be fair, maybe isnât that hugely affective since theyâre probably just gonna sit in systems already activated and with players in them, but still, itâs a nice thought.
Link to where CCP has said the UK sub will rise to ÂŁ15.58?
