The whole thing is dirty on how they did this. Not only a price hike, they tempt people with a “30% off omega” today. AND they paid a number of NON eve streamers Wednesday, i believe, to try out EVE. They literally tried to pull in new players from these streamers and then price hike the sub right when those new players may decide to sub.
Are you high?
2 atleast lol
I think the increase is too much, at least for some of the items, and also too little justified in the blog post which seems so quickly and messy put together that they did not bother to give all the necessary details, like justification, prices comparison, any kind of loyalty program or rewards and foreseeable future changes.
That being said, I’m keeping my accounts subbed for now, because I can afford it via PLEX. Will see what comes next.
-1 sub. Adjust for purchasing power in 3d world countries. I cannot really justify a 3700 inr sub for my 2 toons when my income is 30k inr per month. Cccpls
Well i guess I’ll just f off then, really good decision ccp, well done (/s just because i know you people cannot read the room)
imagine thinking were gonna be ok with this, i love how your a volunteer out here ‘keeping the peace’ while CCP are cowering away.
Is this a marketing tactic to stir up ■■■■ then a month later
“we listened to feedback and we actually cutting sub to 10$ instead”
then its a stupid idea.
Defund ISD.
You dont have to be okay with this. Im not saying that at all.
But there is a right and wrong way to responding to it. Show your thoughts, make it known your opinion. Just do so in a constructive manner.
Yes, ‘defund’ the volunteers who don’t get paid, because they did the thing they’re contractually obligated to do. Holy carp, Manbat…
Just got started with the game in december, on 5 accounts. Guess it is as good a time to stop as any
at a very fast pace seen over 100 disappear
That’s the joke.

No why should we do any of that? That has never worked in the past with you dense ■■■■■■■■■■■■■. Im glad this forum page and reddit are a burning hellscape and im glad so many people are unsubbing that your servers are bogging down. Hope this kills the company. Keep ■■■■■■■ crying about our mean comments on the forums. Its great to watch
In a time when people are struggling to feed their families and pay bills. Eve is a all-time low for providing a decent game, CCP has decided to increase the price of plex and subscriptions. It’s demonstrates exactly how out of touch CCP is with their clients. I have already un-subbed 2 of my 3 accounts. I will be strongly contemplating un-subbing my final account. CCP has demonstrated that they are interested in making EVE a pay to win platform and they no longer care anything about the players except extracting cash from your wallet.
■■■■ YOU CCP!!!
We will start a Petition and mass Boycott Campaign
u will not get away with that bullcrap
Yeah, so am I, dumbass. That doesn’t mean you’re gonna get anywhere screaming about free speech on a privately-owned computer system, and going about it in a way that pretty much guarantees your efforts will just end up crapping all over themselves.
You don’t care if they take your feedback. Awesome. Then stop cluttering the place up.
I see a lot of complaining an whining, This is what you wanted.
its this or sell ship packs.
First off i am not an omega player (yet), but i will try to find a way to make ingame plexing work … :).
Why the hell are you all crying about this “3x% increase”? Why are you threatening to quit (same as when CCP annouced they are selling SP imo)? And then 99% of the players who threw a tantrum ingame and in the forums wil just pay and play on. As to the players with more than one account, i never saw anyone being forced to pay a single dollar for EVE. If you aren’t willing to pay for the game just don’t and stop crying.
Have you ever thought about the side off CCPs employeed that want to be paid or the costs for energy?. CCP has to make ends meet like any other business in the world.
Sure you can go ahead and just say they earn a shitload of money with “microtransactions” and existing subs but i need hard numbers to say the new price is “too high”.
Saying that you do not receive new content is plain wrong (afaik Povchen was new content) just because you don’t play it doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
One of the biggest (most known) mmos on the market simply released earlier versions of their product and have been hyped through the roof for their ingenuity, and there you pay a sub for 17 year old content … don’t get me wrong a price increase is always something to look at, but as it seems to be the first amendment since 2004 for the 1 month sub at least, i say let em have the money and just enjoy the game!
Cheers
