Why isnt this been added in yet CCP ?
You can. Just at 50% speed.
Start training on Char 1 for 24hrs > Pause Training > Start training on Char 2 for 24hrs > Pause Training > etc. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Christy D Floyd wrote:CCP already nerfs their income by providing PLEX. Get rid of plex and see all the players who have alt accounts either sub them up or cancel (Most will just transfer those toons to their main account and cancel those plexed accounts.) The argument you can only play one character in an MMO is bunk also. Let me ask you a question does your character skill up when your not playing? If so why not multiple characters on the same account. Obviously this will reduce the costs of character sales but I think it will bring more players to the game thus increasing CCPs bottom line right.
The only players who object to this idea are the ones who spent years training their toons and are usually the same players who say SP's dont matter in this game so why do they object to this....oh thats right SP's do matter in EVE.
Where do you thin PLEX come from?
Every time someone pays with PLEX, CCP gets $17.5 instead of $12-$15.
Transferring toons earns CCP either $20 or $35, depending on whether you pay with cash or PLEX, so even allowing you to train 2 toons on one account for an extra PLEX a month works out poorly for CCP.
If you want to train 2 characters at full speed, buy a second account. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

I would like to have the training queue account wide. Ie still fitting within the rules for one toon setting up queue (final skill starts within 24 hours) I could have my training start on toon 2 without having to log on at some inconvenient time to stop one queue and start the other.
That would be a welcome change. That or allowing us to pause training from the character select screen. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Why isnt this been added in yet CCP ? If they do that then ALOT of people will stop using multiple accts (including myself)... wouldn't that be a tragedy? i have one character, one account. i'd like to have one toon that can focus on trading and industrial skills...and another that focuses on the combat aspect of the game. but...i'm not going to pay double to do so. when i first began the game i made an alt to focus on combat...then i realized i couldn't train skills at the same time. disgusted...she's remained unused ever since. two superfluous character slots. it really is the one thing about this game that i strongly dislike.
So you want something that no other MMO gives you (the ability to advance two characters at once) for Free? Because? This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

So does EVE. But just like with Age of Conan, it's not part of the basic package. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Since the OP wanted the account with 3 training characters to be the same price as current accounts, yes.
Because the 3 Accounts cost more than 1 Account, and that penalizes having multiple accounts.
If it cost a PLEX a month to train an additional character on your account with a 2 PLEX starting Fee, that would be a fine way to make the bookkeeping easier. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Why not just pay for the other accounts and have the ability to log in at the same time if you're going to pay for it anyway?
Some characters don't need to be permanently training. Cyno Alts, SuperCap pilots, etc, all have limits on what they can usefully train. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Why should CCP give you a discount? This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

GǪand what you get for your sub is the ability to train one (1) character. If you want to train two, it's rather reasonable that you pay 2+ù that. That's not in writing. If it was, I would not have agreed to it. Edit: Maybe we should first clarify the distinction between a character training and an account, no?
One account gets you 3 character slots and one character in training. You could have checked that functionality out while on your free trial period.
It also says so in writing in the official game guide's (EvElopedia) page on Skill Training.
If you didn't read that, and would like to discontinue your account on account of that, you're free to do so in the ways available to you via section 5C of the EULA. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Kenneth O'Hara wrote:Oh and it's not "for free" as you say. I already pay my monthly sub for one account.
Which, as in literally every other MMO, allows you to progress with one character at a time. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

When do you claim that CCP made any such change?
You have never been able to train more than one character on one account. Just like every other MMO where you can only advance with one character at a time per account (people Multibox WOW to progress more than one character, and, surprise to no one, each has to be on a different account). This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Kenneth O'Hara wrote:Actually yeah, take a look at all the patches and expansions. When was training of additional characters on the same account at the same time changed? When was the Power of 2 first implemented? When was the plexing service first started? You need to take a look at the games entire history and the stock market history for the company. Also take a look at the market ticker for CCP. Oh wait, you can't because its all private stock. You're not going to find an article on this because it has to be researched from inside the company and CCP is not going to put something like that on their own because it makes them look bad. The evidence of absence is not the absence of evidence. The research needs to be done.
I think that someone would have noticed and publicly commented on a giant change like "you can no longer train 3 characters at once."
Find (and post) some evidence that you could ever train more than one character per account, or take off your tinfoil hat and come back to Earth.
You say the research has to be done, you make the claim, you get to do the research. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Kenneth O'Hara wrote:I never claimed that it was changed. Read earlier post by someone else. You only read mine and assume it was me that made such claim. I like how you "noticed". I am going based off that other player. Ill of me to make such judgement before reading further into it. If it was never so then so what? I have no need to do the research on this particular point. I will however research everything else. You can take that tinfoilhattery non-sense that you claim I speak and shove it.
What's all this then?

So when do you think CCP changed the number of Characters you can train on each account?
Quote:What is up with everyone in this game? If someone disagrees with the majority of the older player base, they are considered "stupid". They then precede to talk down to the player, not the opposing idea. It would seem that thinking outside of the norm is highly discouraged.
I'm of course, referring to the earlier block who resorted to a lot of *s in his post to try and prove his point. As for the others, well done on the debate. I will have to concede and count this as a loss for the judges are the same ones I am opposing
We've already dispensed with your argument of "I want extra training for free." You're now bringing up paranoid claims that CCP "changed" the rules to only allow one character to train per account to "boost overall stats." This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.
