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.

And when can I get my personalised express delivery for T2 releases of BlueprintNow!

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.

that is a cool Ideal CCP , I really need my business in ammo dealing to go poof lol. Now to sit back and see how many people forget it's april fools day.
Any wagers? If I had any isk in my bank I would say 200 people will post a flame forum on this and how unfaire it is to the community it is lol.

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 ! ...
Go CCP ...
Make it so !!

"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. =)

Just in, Subscription 2.0 would like to announce the availability of "Random module lag" (oh wait you already get that)....I mean "Jump Lag" (ahh opps that is already in there)....Here here we go no way to top this.... Free Noob ships no charge to you in isk only an extra small micro payment to your existing credit card.....

Now if you had said...
"Pay more for faster learning...gain 10M SP for $100.00"
"Skill training queue has been installed...pay $50.00"
Then maybe this would be EPIC. Sadly this thread FAILS.

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.

Rumour has it that the system we are going to use involves placing said ammo in a specially adapted Sodastream, add beer to it and voila, ammo straight to your cargo bay.

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
