Edited by: infused on 29/08/2005 23:26:49 What gives you the right to question how much they make? That is damm rude TBH.
I'll gladly keep paying my fees. I run a small hosting company and it costs hella money to run these operations. You forget, these are Windows servers, windows licencing which is $$$$, IBM support plans $$$$, 24/7 network team $$$ customer suport $$$ and upgrades. One server I imgine would be in the range of $10,000 with all its licencing and hardware.
If you can't afford to pay, don't play, simple as that really.
Whatever you are smoking, stop.
To whoever asked about what CCP started with... As I rememebr, they got a government grant (that is how I started my business) and they injected their own money into it. Download the CPP videos of when it all started. It's all explained there.

Let¦s not forget that most of CCP expenses are in Isk, and 750K $ today is not nearly as much as it used to be. Here a two pictures of the devolopment of the dollar and the euro towards isk for the last three years.

A mmorpg needs about 100-120k subscribers to be a profitable bussiness. Not "every dev drives ferrari" bussiness but good enough to bank some. At 60k+ I assume they make a decent living but nothing to write home about
