Micro with a caveat, purely cosmetic and not for plex. Make aurum a currency you can buy with cash.
You get the same subscription fee i'd pay to any other mmo, no special treatment to prevent doing something you haven't done for the last 8 years anyways. It goes up, I pay with plex until I can't afford the plex (which would be fast, considering an increased subscription fee would skyrocket plex prices) then I unsub. |

Yes. With the caveat that a higher sub price will make me expect more in the way of content.
2 weeks ago, I would say "micro" because I never imagined CCP would consider introducing game-affecting items. But now, unfortunately, I see that vanity items are just a starting point, and as such they are a starting point that cannot be allowed.
It's a shame, because properly done, microtransactions could be both a great revenue stream, and unobtrusive. Almost every player in this game would pay for a ship paint job. How cool would corp bomber jackets be? Corp uniforms? But as of now, I don't trust CCP with scissors.

1. CCP are spending a major chunk of Eve subscription revenue on developing DUST and WoD.
2. The policy of rolling out new, buggy content in Eve is already a source of annoyance, whilst ignoring older mechanics that are critial to gameplay.
3. Eve is designed so that many players need multiple accounts, as a result it's already one of the most expensive MMOs on the market.
Why should subscribers voluntarily pay more revenue to CCP that will NOT be used to improve Eve. They don't appear to be listening to the CSM, or the playerbase. They iterate on crap that the players don't want. All this proposal does is throw money at a problem that cannot be fixed until CCP change their agenda.

Yes. Account 1 Yes. Account 2
Obviously the standards of CCP's updates and community service would be higher to accompany this higher subscription fee.

MICRO
ONLY if the microtransaction market is completely optional to the player base - to participate in it or not, that is the question. I personally prefer not to.
I didn't come to EVE to pretty up an unrealistic virtual persona of myself - if I wanted to do that I'd go create a Second Life.

Edited by: Mattio11 on 25/06/2011 03:29:06 MICRO
However this vote is flawed. You need a 4th option for VANITY ONLY.
Originally by: Hans Jagerblitzen Vote MICRO if you would prefer to implement *optional* microtransactions (cosmetic or otherwise) instead of increasing subscription fees.
It is clear that you, yourself, disagree with MT and you have therefore cleverly designed the voting options for this thread so that people will be forced to choose YES or NO which is exactly what you want them to do. This thread is biased and stupid and should be either fixed or deleted.
There are many players who probably can't afford to pay for an increase in subscription fees and there are many players who don't want players to be given an unfair advantage by buying character enhancing items via microtransations - you are taking advantage of this.
Furthermore there are a lot of people who are mis-informed and who have been fooled by outrageous speculations and rumors - no facts.
There is nothing wrong with VANITY items. IT WILL NOT AFFECT YOU and your ability to play the game (the only problem with the latest expansion is the Captain's Quarters being to hardware hungry - this is another issue). If players want to spend money on fashion accessories then good for them - it's their choice; and if CCP can generate some extra income then good for them! THEY DESERVE IT!
CCP has worked long and hard for us (many selfish) players to provide the game we love and have given us many many FREE awesome expansions and improvements. It is their goal to create the ultimate online sci-fi experience FOR US and if we can help them achieve that goal, then we should! _____________________________________

EVE subscriptions are already at the high end of MMOs. It's obviously profitable, evidenced by EVE providing enough revenue to be developing two new ambitious titles simultaneously.

They are using their revenue to develop cash farms like DUST and World of Darkness at the same time. Not many companies can do that. One would think 1 title was enough and use the rest of the money to improve eve and get even more players...but NOOOO...Greed is supreme.

In a way true, but seriously if we can stop this kinda behavior a few euro increase in sub fee is acceptable. So i say Yes x 3

If you want to spend $20 for your avatar to have a skirt, then go for it. If there is going to be more than just cosmetic MTs, then I would be willing to pay more to keep the MTs out of the game.

NO
I don't want to spread the extra money they want to get from vanity items across all of us in the way of subscription fees instead.
Micro is fine as long as it's only for vanity and cosmetic stuff. The day that we get any kind of pay-to-win system is the day I quit. Heck, I don't really care if I can buy a megathron from MT as long as it's plex -> Aurum -> Megathron, and as long as that megathron is no better (statistics wise, not looks) than any other megathron I can make using BPs. Seems like a bit of added redundancy since you can go plex -> isk -> Megathron but meh.
I have no problem with CCP trying to make extra money, but not with increased subscription fees or MT that involves paying for better stuff than the rest of us get.

EVE is already one of , if not the most, expensive subscription based MMO's out there.

NO.
Sorry, but the world lets WoW get away with charging for expansions, while they recoup their enitre production costs for the release within a day or two after it lands. THEN people CONTINUE paying subs till the next robbing takes place.
Every EVE player pays almost the full amount that other developers charge for a one-off, fully priced AAA title... and they do that every 2 MONTHS. That PAYS for expansion development. That pays for the design and implementation of new features (clothing, etc.), and that pays for server maintenance and admin.
For additional money to be justified for development, or justified in allowing feature-use privileges, CCP would have to explain what exactly we pay our subs for. And also... why their new content production pipelines are so inefficient to require this scale of recompense.
Sorry, but what is going on here is exactly the same : a total -disconnect- between the proportional value of commercial media (in this case, 'features' within a game) and it's commensurate value in real world money.

HELL NO to increased sub fees. YES to Microtransactions as long as they don't affect gameplay balance.
Eve sub is expensive as it is (60 days World of Warcraft = $30, 60 days Eve = $35) plus due to stupid restriction of one training character per account most people actually pay two or more accounts. I believe this situation is quite unique in MMO world, where so many MMO's struggle financially, often resorting to free to play model before going out of business completely. In contrast to that loyal Eve player base goes out of their way and gladly pay for several accounts, but that loyalty has its bounds...

YES but i believe that some information about why they need more money and how they plan to use them would be useful.
