The good old judeo christian guilt our bankers like to use is that simple?
Thats the thing, they donāt. Paragon confirmed that they donāt have ANY issues right now with keeping the lights on. this change is to fund āfuture development projectsā that they will āreinvest into eve onlineā
Which translates to āTrust us! weāll make something good!ā
The way he worded his responses even implied that the ānew contentā theyāre announcing at fanfest IS NOT EVEN DEVELOPED RIGHT NOW.
So they want us to pay them more money on promises, when the last several promises have ALL fallen flat on their face. 2010 era, they promised us an āexpansaloneā, DUST 514. Everyone was excited, and they even did it⦠by releasing a PC gameās āexpansionā as a console only tag-on.
Fail.
How many games have they made and promised?
How many first person shooters have they scrapped because they failcascaded?
How much of the profits from EVE Online have they already SQUANDERED on dead pet projects?
But now theyāre asking us to āTrust themā to spend MORE of our money on their PROVEN track record of failure? Just because -this time- theyāre āreinvesting it into EVE Onlineā?? but wait, are they? āfunding other projects is how business works. if one succeeds, they all succeed!ā Right, CCP Paragon?
I found an explanation. It is Putin and the war in Ukraine that are to blame. Is that so?
Just before I came back to eve I was playing Neverwinter. A decent game and I played for free, I managed to acquire some top-level armor and weapons. I may go back there, still have my desktop link for the game
No, its so that they can āfund future projectsā which will āreinvest into EVE Onlineā
Good god, and why not the lizard theory and all this crap?
No I told you about fact that are teached in school.
Open a book someday
All these people canceling subs may throw the in-game market off that steep learning cliff we as Eve players Bragg about.
They need to JUSTIFY the price increase
what not enough donuts
promises and promises and nothing to show for it sense 2014
You need 2 account to use a cap , 3 to use a super , the isk you make is way to low - you loose your ship is going to take for ever to make the isk back and with cloak campers and all is even hard just to undock and not loose the ship - so now to do that you have to pay 60 dollars a month hahahaha . Is not the 14 to 19 - is the 42 to 57 a month ⦠hahaha this sis crazy - was about to sub 2 alt and see this im going to stop once foa all ⦠the nerf i take but pay 684 dollars a year is way over line ⦠then this time is game over ⦠684 dollars and the plex hahaha - so this game now is likw 1000 dollars a year to just get nerf like all the time , this time the Pearl incompetent abyss went way over line ⦠good luck you need it hahaha
Also someone who has played since 2003 off and on
I run 8 accounts, a lot with multiple skill queues bought and already spend way too much money on this game, I have been struggling to pay as it is. Surely you are aware of the cost of living prices etc and while itās at itās all time low, you hike up the prices?
This is insane, Iāll be cancelling my subs, so enjoy the Ā£300 a month from me, and the lack of the thousands of pounds I have paid in plex over the last 4 months. If your game isnāt dead yet, it will be soon.
Youāve broken industry all around eve, yes BROKEN it, killed off a load of interest for people in our coalition to try use the same and expect us to pay more for the pleasure of getting ignored and / or refusing to roll out of changes which are killing the game, from what appears to be ego. Itās pathetic
I hope your CVs / resumes are up to date
Youāre rightā¦
Playing a game is not a god given right.
We all know how well this logic is received too.
A 33% price increase is ridiculous. There are plenty of other games out there that provide equally as much enjoyment for less. When you all add 33% more content, we can talk, but for right now, Iām going to unsub my 10 accounts. Maybe if you release something cool (like, I donāt know⦠walking in stations?), Iāll resub these accounts.
I can play FFXIV, WoW, Escape From Tarkov, Elite Dangerous, or a plethora of other games that bring me the same amount of enjoyment for cheaper than what you all are trying to get monthly now.
At least those games have released new content that the players wanted in the past 24-months and seem to actually listen to their community.
itās your main job to provide updates and I pay you. It is quite obvious that you will not release updates EVERY month. But at the same time, I have to pay you more ⦠forever and ever ā¦
Next update? Subscription increase again? 25$
Just because you had to WORK?
And if so, then the QUALITY of the content you release is constantly falling. You canāt even put information on the site without all sorts of glitches.
And in general, it is not clear where you are moving, for example, a statement about the desire to get rid of our multi account sounds extremely wild
And these words āwe will arrange a big announcement at the fanesteā do not inspire hope. I still remember your ābig announcementā about the return of the alliance tourŃŃŃŃŠµŃ⦠I remind you it was a 1 minute 30 second video⦠BIG!!
Having a good job doesnāt mean we want to give away more money to everyoneā¦
I have a pretty good job, I donāt want to give people more money than as necessary, or if a number required is higher than the worth of the product.
Ok, so ill now leave the troll alone.
My job is fine enought, Iāve never writted that iāll unsub xAccount or so.
Im just angry about the injustice the5$ raise will bring to ppl who need better job/better life.
I wish you a good day/night whatever, and a good life too
I donāt care if you or anyone else canāt deal with the logic.
You think if they were smart they would announce whatever they think is so super to stop their exodus as by the time they announce at their fanfest, their only gonna have half their player base And it will be another flop
A final word for today.
After rising price by 25%, CCP will still earn a profit (or cut losses) if they keep >75% of their paying customers.
Of course, youāre free to wish them to fall short, lose more than 25% of their customer base and start firing people to keep the lights on. Nothing lasts forever⦠but then if you didnāt care about your sunken costs in EVE Online, you wouldnāt be objecting that the access price goes up, rather you would just let it go.
Forget about this dark troll, Im pretty shure heās masturbating already
Are you trying to kill this game? it sure seems like it.
