Just an idea here 😉 If they want to buy ships from the current player base and sell them to new players - by the way they claim it leads to higher retention of said ‘new players’; and I support retention methods - then perhaps to appease the current eve community and add a p2e aspect they should offer a ‘kickback’ to the player base supplying the ships. Give us a percentage of the sale price for supplying the ships. For the slow to comprehend, that means give us some of the real money $-) (Not isk) /me braces for ensuing comments ---

> [@EmpO3](#): > > If they want to buy ships from the current player base and sell them to new player That’s not how it works. Loonatics are running the asylum. Disband and dissolve the CSM. What Eve needs is CCP to engage with the player / developer base directly via surveys and feedback otherwise, shut down their Github issue trackers, opening tickets there is a waste of time now it seems. It seems their Github is basically a PR landing page. CCP will do what’s best for CCP. CSM will do what’s best for CSM. If their interests intersect with your interests, it’s random luck. ---

Eve is a game full of double standards. People log in with multiple paid accounts
surely they only do so for some kind of _advantage_
yet they complain about ‘pay to win’. People who pay zero towards the game complain when their source of free ISK gets diminished. Like, er, _someone_ is paying for those ‘free’ ISK believe it or not. Yeah, and the people paying absolutely nothing at all moan loudest about ‘pay to win’. People trade skill points, indeed farm them, buy entire characters
and they too moan about ‘pay to win’ The only thing missing in Eve is mirrors
for people to look in. ---

This feature will also not only supply each ship from the player base but allow the community to influence which ships will be put in these packs.

 to screw new players, they can just stop producing and go on strike and get their demands met? I think I would prefer CCP just sell packs as “consumables” than give more power to these blocks.

As all EVE players know and remember, being a new pilot in New Eden has many challenges. Some players are lucky enough to make their way into player corporations quickly, where they are shown the ropes and supported by our veterans. For others, however, this path can be hard to find or feel intimidating, so they go it alone. We’ve spent much of 2020 and 2021 devoting resources to researching these players and trying to find ways to h

I will wait on the survey from CCP. Considering they don’t even respond to tickets on their official github account for years, I don’t think a survey will be coming any time soon. ---

Just because the CSM doesn’t respond to folks here, outside of brisc or mike, doesn’t mean they don’t pay attention. EVE mail does exist to reach out to them that way. There’s also twitch and reddit. ---

They could do it like their economic reports. Though I don’t think CCP would likely publish any unfavourable results, at least a chance to submit survey feedback regularly would be an improvement, direct from the players. ---

P2E would not result in Eve + some people getting paid for playing. It would destroy Eve as we know it. The resulting game will have the same name, lore, graphics, and other trappings of Eve, but it won’t be Eve. P2E will dramatically impact player and developer incentives, and cause a massive shift in player demographics as the player base shifts from P4F to P2E. Anyone who suggest Eve go P2E either doesn’t understand the ramifications, or doesn’t care, and just wants to get paid. Either way, they should not be listened to. ---
