[Discussion] PLEX and Omega price changes feedback thread

Neither is $15/month, and here we are :man_shrugging:

Cool, well its been fun, I’ll go find some other game to play.

Well not totally true. If you have a product you start offering since let’s say 2004 let’s pick a hotel room. The hotel room is much older 18 years later, if you maintained it it could be the same quality as when released but if you don’t it would be a lesser product due to age. The question is then if this 18 year old game which requires more then 1 account to play properly worth the same amount as a complete new title in store every month.

Plex prices go thru the roof!

Ok , and could we speak of the true reason of price increasing.

I means it’s to avoid people stop paid when they broke the game, basically you could paid the older price if you take bigger subscription time.
CCP learn from they’re mistake: now they will be abble to planify to kill the game on more month/year before suffer consequence.

COuld you as CSM member please explain to they : $
"
If you have made that after rollabck all indy change (ALL) an dall cap/super change for farming , it will have reduce the amount of account needed to play for fun (and not waste time after time to made isk to pvp).
But you choose to force people to have more account or spend more time to same pvp as 3 year ago. So if you increase subscription price you just give people incensitive to sub less account so spend even more time to made isk, so create more player departure.

Before increase you’re sub price fix you’re ingame economy. (and by fixing we means rollback to rorqual era if you want a 33% increase in price)"

Could you send they that ?

I think significant is going to be an understatement. Personally, I have 7 Omegas, I just canceled auto-rennewel on all of them. Today, EVE has died for me. I am done.

Thank you for the transparency, I think most people are likely to agree with your points

The new prices on Omega include all upcoming content releases for the game

You know what that wording means. Paid content is on the very near horizon. That sentence opens the door for paid expansions just like “All SP will always come from player training” opened the gates for SP in packs for real money. The implementation of such a system is very simple, too. It will be instanced space like Abyss that you can only access if you bought the expansion.

Fun times ahead. Thanks for the early warning, CCP.

Seems like you called it exactly, every other mmo manages to release multiple huge content patches every single year for a $15 sub and somehow eve cant manage to do even 1 content patch a year. Players are already tired of the same old thing and charging more for the same content is just stupid.

Just so we are on the same page…

Significant changes to the sub price, yet I’ve had an open support ticket for seven days? Who do you think you are, Audi?

Brisc don’t sweat it man, you can only flog a horse so much before it keels over and dies. I don’t blame the CSM the fault lies purely at CCP’s feet, and the way this is going down that fault may end up 6 feet under. PCU and the in-game market may never recover and we are just entering the summer period as well, when traditionally player numbers decrease. Everyone should cancel fanfest and just meet up with each other and not attend any Eve event put on by CCP.

You’re a pretty decent fellow, but I still need to ask:
what’s your stance on acting upon that kind of valuable information on the in-game ISK-PLEX markets?
Are the rest of the CSM on the same page?

Prices getting “cheaper”… As it should be. At day zero, it was a brand new game with new -everything-, constant tweaks and changes, a dev team that cared.

Now, while from a -purely financial- prospective you’re right. it is still ‘cheaper’.

But instead of a new game, we’re paying for what, exactly? an HD remake? no. A flourishing economy? also no. something that any one of us honestly believes will still be standing in two? five? ten years??

By your logic, they’re asking us to pay New car prices for a 20 year old Ford Pinto that had the radio jacked by the dealership.

EVE is already circling the drain and you guys pull this? I’ve never seen a company with this much contempt for it’s customers in my entire life.

Yeah. That’s certainly the risk. I hope that doesn’t play out that way. But it could.

Who needs green siege update?
You just raise the prices, unsub all alts, the offer goes high and ships became cheaper.

WTF are you doing CCP

That’s a violation of the CSM Code of Conduct and has been for a long time.
