I bought a carrier funded by a PLEX I bought with real life money. You see, I make decent money in real life but have little time to mission etc to make ISK because of work and my wife and three kids.
But I lost my carrier to a Nyx. So how come I didn't win? ------------------------------------------

Edited by: Coruso Malefactor on 29/06/2011 21:10:02 What you are describing is not P2W (pay 2 win). Quite simply you poorly used some ISK gained from selling a PLEX.
An example of P2W would be purchasing some unique mod or ship that is overpowered (requires little character skills to use) with Aurum. That is the eventual road that EVE is heading down.
GOOD NEWS! Give it a few months and you will be able to buy the aforementioned unique mods or ships that are overpowered to hunt down and destroy that Nyx.
Cheers!

No worries. Seeing as how I'm quitting Eve just buy some more plex and turn it into isk. Then just send it to me and I'll send you back double AND tell you why you didn't win Eve.

So if I would have spent more RL money and bought a Nyx I woulda won?

Well, you lost the "p2w" war. He payed more then you, so...he won.
You may get a better job in RL to p2w more in EVE, would be a good strategy.

The solution is always to spend more RL money. The more the better. To win you have to buy at least 12 PLEX a month.

It's not pay to win since you're buying an ordinary ship anyone could get with enough ISK instead of a premium ship with 'gold' ammo.
You're also missing that with Plex, the player economy is still involved: You sold the Plex to a player in return for ISK. You bought a carrier that some industrialist had built with resources harvested by other players.
The problem is, with a ship from the NeX store, there's no player involvement: You bought Plex and broke it into Aurum, with no other players involved. You used that Aurum to buy a ship from the NeX that appears out of thin air. |

Did you buy your 12 PLEX yet? Until you do the ships stay hidden from view.

Actually, no. You'll also need a base hull to trade in. On top of just AUR.
Or maybe you'll only get a BPC. Which you need to buy minerals for, to build.
Vanity ships won't be introduced until either one of those two features are in place. _
