Thats incorrectly worded. They can CC up in skill points, but experience is a hard lesson learned that you just can’t buy.

Not entirely true. With cash, you can afford a few losses getting that experience. 🙂

You’ve yet to be able to say anything against the mechanic itself other than make up silly scenarios in your head.

Adhere to the topic, a discussion about the mechanics of a suggested feature.

You’re right, I do view it through a narrow lens.

I really think that if EVE were brought back down to 1 person = 1 account, it would be a much better place, but I also understand WHY multiboxing is all but required to play the game at this point.

Scout Alts  
Market Alts  
Cyno Alts  
Etc Alts

Would revert to being actual players. I saw someone ask for a pricecheck in Jita yesterday and four people told them to use outside tools… and we wonder why the playerbase is shrinking.

As the game is now, I completely agree with you that certain alts are all but required in many circumstances but I also don’t think it’s healthy for the game to remain like this, hence tossing suggestions to generate discussion about proposed mechanics. As I said above, I don’t think this will ever be adopted but discussion of potential mechanics is how we progress, no?

Also, it’s YC127 why can’t we check prices remotely?

Already did. To reiterate:

• Many alts are used for scouting, cynos, trading, manufacturing, etc.  
• This requires at least two (2) separate accounts for the first two activities.

Thus, this negates the entire idea of “tertiary” ships on a single account. I’m really not sure how I can make this more crystal clear: **THIS IDEA IS A NON-STARTER**.

What are your thoughts on allowing all 3 characters from an account to be logged at once?

We already have them.  
It could potentially substitute multiboxing.  
Fixes the Cyno, Scouting, Manufacturing, etc Alt issue.

I think it would entirely defeat the purpose of MCT certificates - which is a whole kettle of fish I don’t even want to entertain…

I have 1 account and 3 characters I play with. My main does trading, can mine in a Rorq and anything below, is a maxed Amarr dread pilot (incl. maxed Bane), maxed on Amarr, Minmatar, and Gallente subcaps (f\*ck Caldari!) for PVP, maxed on science and industry jobs, maxed on scanning/explo. Did I miss anything? (He’s training for max titan capabilities next).

All 3 also are maxed on PI and science jobs. Not a single skill injector ever used either (accelerators though, plenty).

I love it that I have one character I can use to do everything with. I’d hate to have to shuffle multiple characters for different purposes. Also, I have one identity in real life, and I can’t sustain so many identities in my characters either. Just one main, and 2 supporting characters is enough for me. If I need a cyno, I’ll just ask a friend for a favor. This is a social game too, after all.

So, you can play EVE like this, with just a single character. It’s just – most guys don’t have the patience to do it like I do.

CCP would go bankrupt over it, leading to the servers shutting down, leading to nobody being able to play at all any more. Which would of course end multiboxing, but singleboxing as well. Doesn’t sound like a good change to me.

Your proposal will directly, negatively impact CCP’s financials.  
It’s a legitimate point to raise in this context.

Read and adhere to the OP and point of the thread.

We are not discussing CCP’s financials. We’re discussing the proposed mechanic itself.

If you are unable to find anything wrong with the mechanic itself, it must mean that there is nothing wrong with it.

Yeah, you got me there. I didn’t consider rendering an entire item obsolete.

Though, assuming 1 ship per character on the account, MCT could still work, no?

I think you’ve hit on something important. While I don’t perceive multiboxing to be outright incentivized by CCP/EVE, the game itself seems to shuttle you towards it, doesn’t it?

I extracted my old main when Skill Extractors were released so I could split his skills across three characters. One for industry, one for PVP and one for PVE/Exploration. It seems that we thought in exact opposite but reading your post makes me sort of regret that now.

How do you figure? Aren’t we talking PvP? I don’t mean Titans. Cruisers are cheap. They don’t break the bank. Theyre good practice and can build experience
