I cant understand why CCP keeps providing New skins. It dont improve the game, its just useless eyecandy. I belive skins should be a free option when players build ships, not a aftermarked isksink. Can someone please explain me why CCP makes skins? |

Maybe because some people want their ships to be nicely SKINned in useless eye-candy and are willing to pay for it.
If there's a demand, why not fulfill it? |

Funny part is how ccp caved in and gave the elite alliance torniment winners a SKIN LICENSE that applies to all Sansha ships instead of how it was orriginally gonna be a battleship skin.
Now the skin they win will apply to the nightmare and the succubus etc etc etc.
Just one license for an entire faction of ships.
Seriously why cant the average players get this option?
Double standard? |

Got the manticore skin on release, had some aur leftover for it and it was not very expensive. So you guys never played EnB, eh? Hah full ship painting and decals. Those were the days before the item shops. Oh well, only ship I think I wanted a skin for. I'd like perma pirate faction skins, most would, but guess not.

Im saying if ccp is introducing a new Faction Skin License anywhere any how in the game to anyone that allows them to have ONE skin license applicable to ALL SHIPS from that faction like they are giving the AT winners so they can use their Licemse to skin their Nightmares, Succubuses, Phantasms and Reverents... all from ONE SKIN LICENSE THAT WORKS ON ENTIRE FACTION OF SHIPS
They need to go ahead and introce others. |

Especially when they release things like the SOE ship skins, in a 3 pack, rather than just one SKIN like this.

To op: Because people are willing to toss money at the skins, so ccp can.
To CAM more then likly this is the firts step to eventually opening up the skins to more then one hull. I don;t have an issue with the AT winners getting a skin for all sansha ships. Doesn;t bother me and i have bought skins.

If they sold faction skins, then people would complain how the main ones cost more than the faction ones because there are more ships.

Because it's only impressive when you call it a "whole faction" when the reality is that this is only 4 ships we're talking about here and most of the Amarrian SKINs have more ships that they can be applied to than that.

Well the reason to restrict it is because its a unique prize, why are ships different to skins? Why are all ships not available to everyone?

Agree with you, the reason for unique prizes is to entice players into participating.
If players want unique items then they should compete.

I would ask you to keep your dramasense confined to the appropriate thread, but it seems like that one got Barstorloded.. and for good reason.

#9 - 2015-07-22 17:43:24 UTC | Edited by: CCP Logibro 1 At this stage, we are planning to also change the Rattlesnake skin. And after a little discussion, the current plan will now involve making it a Guristas Victory Edition SKIN rather than having it still restricted to just the Rattlesnake (so long as we don't hit some kind of technical snag, will know more tomorrow when everyone is back in the office)
Now there is a freaking GURISTAS FACTION SKIN LICENSE APPLICABLE TO EVERY SINGLE GURISTA SHIP And a SANSHA FACTION SKIN LICENSE
Both of these licenses give ability to skin EVERY SINGLE SHIP FROM ITS RESPECTIVE FACTION
That means Worm Victory Edition Garmur Victory Edition and freaking Rattlesnake Victory Edition all from ONE SKIN!
Seriously I demand an equivalent Blood Raider Amarr faction wide skin and A Police Skin applicable to all Gallente Faction.

This just in: notable badpoaster doesn't know what he or she is talking about!
Garmur's a Mordu's ship, boyo.
That said, the Gurista victory skin isn't much to look at.

they can, just buy a SKIN from someone willing to sell. I bought 2 rattlesnake victory edition bpcs for ~2.4bil about the time they handed them out. I built and sold one, and I built and am still holding the second. A bit indecisive about whether I want to hold or sell it. don't really need the isk, but don't really care too much for SKINs either

Every player whether you buy skins or not benefits from the sale of skins. The more profit CCP makes the better they can afford to make the game. While CCP usually blows every possible angle they could use to make more money from EVE, in this case they copied someone elses idea and viola! profit.
Yawn,-á I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really.

We deserve Quafe skin license applicable to all gallente ships just like AT winmers get a Sansha Faction skin license.
Kinda BS guys Supposedly we also deserve what otherwise is 120 bil ships, eh? Seriously though, just collect every Quafe skin out there. Done.

Unlike some people I know how how to appreciate CCP's efforts into streamlining the item database and make ship redering less intensive on the game and more efficient. Intead of getting the Nth ship variant that stays docked because of "risk aversion", we are getting cool looking ship customization items that not only are enduring, but allow us to fly without fear of being singled out because of it.
Because SKINs don't show on the Overview, unlike unique ship variants.
If you want to play zoomed out, more power to you, since CCP already cattered to that particular gameplay style with spiffy new icons. Oh wait, you guys hated that too. There's just no pleasing you people! |

They dont "need" to do anything, an alliance tournament prizes are meant to be above and beyond what normal people have access to, if you want the skin go win the AT simple, i personally don't care what they are getting :P |

When ccp gets lots of money they do not use it on eve or "to make the game better" like all you people always say.
They funnel it out of eve errytime
World of Darkness Vampire MMO took and wasted millions and millions of dollars from eve and threw it sown the drain. Dust514 took millions of dollars from ccp and has lost momey and iant profitable according to 2014 ccp finincial data. They are making Valkyrie which is taking millions and millions of money from eve subscription and macrotransaction and funneling it out of eve and into different game. Legion
Dude seriously when ccp gets money from eve subscription and macrotransactions they take it and put it towarss ANOTHER GAME DUDE
So rhere are my like over 5 years kf proof facts and citations. Where is yours that "more more 4 ccp = more better eve" Lol |

Calm down and stop acting like a child, do you wanna know why they haven't released multi-hull skins? Technical reasons, releasing a tournament skinpack is far easier and quicker for them to create than skin licenses that are applicable to a huge amount of ships. They've already said they're aiming to have skin licenses that are applicable to a multitude of ships, but it takes time, and it has to be done properly, instead of some half assed attempt that causes technical issues, looks bad and hurts performance.
No, before you start spewing rubbish about that amazing bug we had when skins first came around, that bug highlighted the fact that the majority of skins either didn't work properly on most hulls, or simply looked awful. |
