I've been training this character for a while as a nefarious alter-ego for my carebear main. I decide that the perfect start to my life of crime would be a suicide gank. Thorax? Check. Highs full of blasters ? Check. Lows full of magstabs? Check. Passive Targeter? Check. Fully insured? Check. Unsuspecting Retriever? Check. Dead Retriever? Check. Concordokken? Check. Full insurance payment? Che.....
The Insurance payout was half the quoted value. Is this normal, or a recent change? |

CCP would not implement such a severe change in the insurance system without even ever talking about it.

Edited by: Taram Caldar on 29/07/2009 22:51:44 If true... it's long overdue and only half what it should be. Concordoken shouldn't pay any insurance, imo. I have never understood the logic that the 'insurance agencies' pays people for being blown up by the 'cops'.

Not complaining in the slightest. The change makes a lot of sense. I was just wondering why it had'nt been publicised.

petition it then, it's a mistake. While I cannot wait for that change to be enforced, it has not yet been.

Insurance is a game mechanic, not a business.
CONCORD was already balanced by shortened response times. No more changes are needed.

Are you certain you got plat insurance? Half is the default, basic payout.

Technicly, CONCORD has nothing to do with insurance.
Try it in real life, hit a police car and crash your own car. Yes you are going to jail for a week(end) but do you get your insurance money? Hell yes!
Unless you live in America, then you have to PAY insurance to THEM. _____________

Now try this.
Hit a police car while fleeing the scene of a crime you just committed and see if you get an insurance payout for your car.
My guess is no. Which is actually what this discussion is about - receiving insurance payouts for ships lost due to a criminal act (as defined by the game mechanics) by the pilot. --Vel

Ha-ha! You're so right! America is full of fascist pig cops and the justice system will lock you up for any accident involving a police car, then make you pay for the damage and refuse you insurance!
Except that none of that is true.  ---- Suddenly Ninjas Blog: My Loot, Your Tears

If you're paying for collision insurance, I'm pretty sure you would get paid for the damage to your car. Just expect your premium to go up. ______ Why has the number of players online dropped from 50k to 25k? BECAUSE OF SWINE FLU |

Read your policy more closely. I'm willing to bet that buried in that really long list of exceptions to coverage is a note about damage caused or suffered in the commission of a crime. --Vel

Edited by: De''Veldrin on 30/07/2009 01:24:17 I looked at my policy. Here are some exceptions that specifically cover this topic.
My insurer will not pay out if: for deliberate loss or damage caused by anyone insured under this Policy; (one could argue that suicide ganking falls under this category, since it is deliberate, and you knew you'd lose the ship when you did it).
any liability, loss, damage, cost or expense due to confiscation, impounding requisition or destruction by any government, public or local authority (i.e. CONCORD destroys it).
Or the use of my vehicle in any of the following acts: * threat of and/ or actual endangerment of the life of a person(s); * threat of and/ or actual serious violence against person(s); * involving the threat of and/ or actual damage to any form of property; Edit: For clarification, I read a bit further. The three items listed directly above this are limited to deliberate acts - most of which would be considered crimes in just about every industrialized nation on the planet.

0.0 - never lo-sec - never ratting - never mining in a 0.8 or lower - never missioning - never pirating - never anti-pirating - never war-dec (either side) - never paying 40% above market value for a single 30% premium? - never
"Insurance" in EvE has nothing to do with RL concepts of insurance.
Just as RL concepts of law enforcement have nothing to do with a situation where immortal pilots who are allowed to fly battleships with nuclear weapon around "safe" areas. And where we can pay off the police to ignore huge battles directly outside public ports. You're trying to apply the rules and mores of 21st century western suburban civilization to a a game set in a hypertechnological far future with radically different cultures.

Because the forums are the correct place to ask? You did remember to change the default option from the lowest insurance to the highest one didn't you? You do realize its only the hull that gets paid out don't you? If yes to the above, petition it.
No such change has been made. No such murmurings have been made on the sisi forums.. Take it up with the people that can do something about it and stop bothering us..
Also yes, I'm well aware that you are trolling..

Removal of insurance would have been a far better fix than buffing CONCORD response times and giving them permajamming ECM. Yet here we are. Insurance nerfs at this point would just be piling on.
