Ever thought of yourself as a VIP? Want to become one now? We at CCP have carefully collated various replies from our customers and would like to present to you what we consider our finest achievement to date - namely Subscription 2.0.
Yes, from now on each player can decide what features they want to pay for, giving you unheralded choice in the world of New Eden, now EVE is a true "sandbox" game.
First up on the list is AmmoAnywhere. Running low on XL Antimatter when you've been pounding away at that POS? Fear not, merely hit the button and we'll wing you a full cargo load to your bay so you can continue to mete out that damage. Naturally we've had to make a few changes to proceedings to allow for this so prepare yourselves for ammo changes and in the future, if everything goes well with the launch, enhancements to the docking experience, industry production and more.

I must have missunderstood something. Is there going to be 1 general ammo that is bought paying RL cash for and all the ammo BPO/BPC's are going to be eliminated. Ammo isn't going to be available for isk, but for RL money?
If that's the case I have a problem with the new system, unless there is some way to opt out. I build all my own ammo with the materials I get from gathering all the loot from the wrecks making ammo cost me a little in time, but no real money.
If I'm off base and the system functions some other way please let me know.

I so can't wait for the BlueprintNow! - T2 subscription ... just like some older players used to be able to randomly subscribe to (could never find that option myself )
I so think that Zippy Pinno's idea of "30%-Less-Lag subscription" would be well over subscribed ! ...

"First up, all weapons will now use "NanoAmmo", which automatically morphs into the desired ammunition type at the point of firing."
Fantastic! Now I can take all of those looted 1MN Afterburners, and instead of melting them down, cram them into my guns instead. =)
Happy April 1st CCP. Keep up the great work.
(Suggestion for next year: "In an effort to make Caldari more relavant in PvP, we've decided to quadruple the speed of all missiles." That'll make people mess their pants. =)

More plausible than last years but still too far out there.
Still, I am sure that half the people here were ready to wage CAPS LOCKS WARS until they noticed the date.
It is good to know what CCP employees consider as impossibilities for future expansion in the game, however. Sort of like a blog that outline what they will never do. Last years thing about the clone insurance fit that pretty well and this one about your feelings on games charging extra money for benefits inside the game both fit that role very well.

I wonder if dock-o-matic would improve the current broken dock code... currently you click on a station, hit dock, the ship aligns, warps, arrives, then about 20% of the time crawls to 0 and keeps going. 10 minutes later it's still there... bumping against the station. Maybe dock-o-matic fixes that, eh

Here at CCP we care very strongly about our product, and we're constantly evaluating new paradigms and thoughtspaces in order to better realize our Total Market Potential. Our goal is to enhance the customer experience by offering new product channels and opportunities, allowing our customers to participate through selective transactional channels and fully realize their potential as Valued Income Partners û VIPs!
Just the first part made me think of a bull**** bingo. Jeez, there are so many marketing words in it. This has to be a joke. Right?

Originally by: CCP Mitnal Ever thought of yourself as a VIP? Want to become one now? We at CCP have carefully collated various replies from our customers and would like to present to you what we consider our finest achievement to date - namely Subscription 2.0.
Yes, from now on each player can decide what features they want to pay for, giving you unheralded choice in the world of New Eden, now EVE is a true "sandbox" game.
First up on the list is AmmoAnywhere. Running low on XL Antimatter when you've been pounding away at that POS? Fear not, merely hit the button and we'll wing you a full cargo load to your bay so you can continue to mete out that damage. Naturally we've had to make a few changes to proceedings to allow for this so prepare yourselves for ammo changes and in the future, if everything goes well with the launch, enhancements to the docking experience, industry production and more.
Will this be horizontally or vertically positioned in the marketspace? -- (Sarcastic mission running veteran)

Seems like somebody was drinking a little too much Web 2.0 Kool-Aid when they wrote this joke...
Next year, consider something like:
"Quafe Shipments Through Eve Gate to Resume, Somehow" "Concord Calls It Quits, Cites AmmoAnywhere as Factor" "Jove Disease Cured Through Acupuncture, Announces Invasion Plans" "New Playable Race: Cybrids" "Empires Admit Security Rating Mistake, All Systems 0.0" "AI Rats 'Wake Up', Form Union, Petition Greivances"
In-game screenshots or clever renders also heighten the sense of reality.

"Due to an unfortunate programming error, we have discovered that the latest patch will accidentally format your entire hard drive unless you uninstall and reinstall Eve before you reboot. Rebooting without doing this will result in a corrupted hard drive."
and then put out an actual patch that was totally meaningless in some fashion.

Tired of empty asteroid belts in 1.0 systems, you don't want to travel to 0.0 space to hurl your mining lasers into crokite or kristallos ?
With one click on the button "ROIDS ANYWHERE", any desired asteroid type will materialise in a private instance anywhere in your current system (any security level). Since it's a private instance, it's all yours, you can't even get ganked in it, cause you can't be scanned.
