I've played for 7 years, and all I have to say is go **** yourself CCP. I've fought for your decisions to keep friends playing, but you've gone off the deep end this time.

How many people raging in this thread have a double digit IQ?
Answer honestly, now.
I have a graduate degree in biochemistry. It doesn't negate the fact that there is no clear rationale for having two separate currencies to buy vanity items -- especially when you can only get AUR thru plex. That's either 400 mil ISK or 15 USD for an item in game that can be seen only by you. Ridiculous, no?

So ... people complain that those vanity items are extremely expensive.
And guess what comes next?
CCP's biz devs will decide that it is too much RL money for a vanity item ... and they will add game changing functions to them: better attributes for faster learning, more damage for your weapons etc.

You know, I think CCP have failed to grasp precisely what the word "Micro" in "Microtransactions" actually means. I'm willing to believe that these pricings are a genuine mistake though, so I'll give CCP a couple of weeks to put things right before I declare them "Greedy beyond words"...
In the unlikely eventuality of anyone from CCP reading this, my take on it is that the items are between 7 and 10 times what they should be priced. No one item an avatar wears should cost more than about 2/3 of a PLEX absolute tops, unless it's some sort of limited edition, only-1000-available-ever thing. If and when ship reskins are released, I'd be comfortable paying up to 1 PLEX for one, *maybe* up to about 1.5 PLEXes if it's a *really* good skin. No more than that though.
Time to wait and see how CCP react now, I guess.

I never come to the forums because of all the complaining and have been really excited for some of the new changes. that being said, i have to say the new aurum prices are just ridiculous, and the stance ccp is taking about them just makes really upset i even bothered to be excited about this game. its not the fact i wanted to buy some clothing (if prices were better i prob would have), but it is the sheer obviousness of their wanting to rip off there loyal players to make a buck. this is just crazy

I remember in guild wars people would farm for literally weeks to get the fissure and underworld armor.
If I farmed for weeks in EvE, I could buy vanity gear also.
Yeah, bloody brilliant CCP. Haters gonna hate.

I thought it was meant to be microtransactions not macrotransactions
What a ****ing joke of a money grab, at least make it affordable and not $80 ****ing dollars.
$5 is acceptable. For something REALLY special.

Yeah I told several people I talk to regularly on MSN. They laughed at it, some said they'd never try Eve now, others were glad they never did.
I really hope this blows up in CCP's faces because it deserves to. They're smarter than this. They should have known better, and I have higher expectations from them.

Reposting this quote because it NEEDS TO BE HEARD. If someone walked up to me and told me the above in real life to justify the cost of some trivial thing, I'd punch you in the face without blinking. Time to leash your gm's.

Zinfandel's not a GM. He's a marketing guy, and one of the ones behind this whole debacle.

Hugely expensive items is not how to make money from cash shops, CCP. People don't buy one $15 - they buy 20 75c items.

You're better off not buying them. You're essentially supporting the poor decision making process of the developers / making them richer for their sheer stupidity. Anyone who uses AUR to purchase items in game is simply rewarding bad decision making. That said, once my plex runs out in two weeks, I don't see myself re-subscribing.
Absolutely ridiculous to have two separate currencies; it's plainly obvious that they're trying to fleece people out of much money as possible.
Hmm. I could take my fiance out to a nice dinner at a 4 star restaraunt.. or I could buy a pair of underwear in game that only I can see.
The end is mine to write. Goodbye Eve.

I am completely and utterly appalled that a pay to play game has added this stupid feature that so REEKS of 'free to play with - item shop' bull****!
Shame on you CCP! You've sold out your players for this gimmick to make more money! This is a stupid stupid idea and you're business strategist should be fired immediately and replaced with someone who actually DOES have something larger than a peanut floating between their ears!

On the up side, we can still truthfully say that eve does not have micro-transactions.
Nothing micro about spending more money on internet clothes than I do for my clothes IRL. Though they do probably look better on my avatar than they do on me.
