Suddenly the "Logout to Character Selection Screen" turns even more needed than before.

I've been 7 years waiting for it. And counting...

First off who says people do this. You might but not all.

If you use multiple clients & don't put each client in window mode, then you are doing it wrong.

I have 4 monitors for my clients, so each monitor has its own client in window mode for it. I never ever, ever had to use (Alt+tab).

There's one feature that no one seems to really ask for.. If you have space in your queue, why not allow the other char to fill some space? Say 19 hours free. Add 9 hours with your second char, fill the rest with your char's 90 days freighter 5 skill.. Should not be THAT hard - or is it?

Where is the remaining time of the Dual Character displayed?I cant find it in account management

Yes, this is something I want as well. The only thing the Account page tells you is when you can add another plex for additional training, but it does not tell you how long your current dual training will last.

I think I would consider using it if a plex bought me 2 months of alt training. As it stands, it seems like poor value to me because it's the same cost as funding 2 accounts, but with half the utility (I can only use one of the characters at once).

"For improved visibility, please note that activated and remaining Dual Character Training time may be seen at any time in the Account Management page."

Some interesting posts here. I will apologise in advance if i repeat anything that has been prevouisly said. These forums just send my eyes all funky.

Ok Duel Character Training, its a great thing About Time.

However, it is too expensive! You are paying over the odds for a character you can use at the same time.

I have however, used it twice. And i now realise it would have been cheaper to create a new account train the character to how i want him, then transfer him.

I agree with a previous post it should be free!
The above is not going to happen. So there should be a cheaper option.

For example, 1 plex will allow 60 days off duel character training or even 90. (i prefer the 90 day option myself )

After all you cant use both characters at the same time, and CCP will still make there money. Proberly more to be fair as more people would use this service.

Just my 2 pennies worth

It is a shame 1, Devs pretty much stop monitoring threads after the 1st page of replies. So the good suggestions and ideas remain just that, suggestions and ideas. 2., That it really doesn't matter what the paying customer thinks. The thinking seems to revolve around short term high gain, rather than long term gain but at a slightly lower rate.
$20 / 550+mil isk for 30 days training is not really something the average player will be using more than once or twice, due to cost. Twikki's suggestion of 60 or 90 days would in fact probably see the use of dual character training taken up by a lot more.

We love getting feedback and you guys have already pointed out some really good improvements to the current implementation. I assure you the lack of feedback from us here has more to do with the summer vacation period than anything else Rest assured, there will be iterations on this feature in the future, hopefully sooner rather than later.

This post contained no information or actual feedback whatsoever.

Specifically which comments have you taken in to account, and exactly what iterations will you be making, and where are they on the development plan?

Please don't insult your players with politician-like waffle. It damages the relationship between me (us) and you.

Thanks in advance.

What they should respond to generic feedback like "whaaaa, CCP, I cant afford Dual Training and this is some strong evidence that no one else can afford it! So make it free or super cheap because I'm very important"?
If you looking for reasoning behind necessity of dual-training - then you don't know what you want and shouldn't use this feature.
If you know why you really need dual-training alt on single account- then you will pay the current price without any doubt.


Why only two months for one plex? Let's ask four months per plex and wait for CCP response to this "great" suggestion \o/

seriously, why can't we see our balance of remaining training time (a resource we paid for)?

unless it's published somewhere i can't find... however, SO many other people can't find it. if there was a clever person out there i'd hope they would have shared the answer before 15 pages of "wtf is my balance"

i hope your vacations were nice, because we would really like you to get to work, and allow us manage our training.

i can't think of any reason to do this besides 'lazy.' this is speculation, true. what else are we left to do w/o more information? help us out!
