Frigate paint; around 45 AURUM (~$0.23-$0.26) for a single application
Battleship paint; around 350 AURUM (~$1.75-$2.00) for a single application


This is some pretty greedy **** considering your making 20 bones off plex prices right now, and 15 bones from people paying for sub's your going to charge a fee for spaceship paint? Your expansions are just barely relevant enough to be considered expansions a new ship here a new module there just give it to the player base enough of this Arurm marketplace garbage.

Stop ******* whining already.

And ******* use ISK for it.

Its not whining, people are entitled to their opinions and this is the place to express them, don't like it, bugger off.

Idiots are entitled to their simple opinions just like I am entitled to mock them. Without the mockery, then people might start treating really, really dumb ideas as viable ones. If you don't thin the herd it gets fat and stupid.

Explain to me why they should be free, and not paid for like every single other thing in the game?

I love the idea of ship painting, but since this is a monthly subscription based game I hate that it will involve the cash shop. How greedy can a company get!

Would you like your subscription money to pay for ship paint, or better game mechanics and better servers? Development costs money. And this is what microtransactions are for. EVERY MMO has them. However, while most allow you to buy things that make your stuff better, CCP is only selling decorations.



It's entirely whining. QQmore.

Not free, but ISK and LP store related and not AUR.

Just love you internet tough guys who can't engage in discussion without insults. But this is Eve, to be expected.

Ultimately though, this is a pilot program to see how much mileage variable-skins have. Should they decide to go into full operation on this, they clearly can't use this system much further, for many reasons. Firstly, it would hopelessly cludge up the market, since at present, every reskin is a new ship type (imagine listing a Green Rokh on the market, wondering why it isn't selling, then discovering the Red ones are all going for 5 million cheaper, but the market comparison isn't showing this because it cant compare different items). On top of that, it would render future balance passes treacherous - imagine having a dozen identical-statted ships, just with different ID's due to being distinct items, and imagine the screw up if they accidentally missed one of the colours in a balance pass. Hell, they already did exactly this with the Ishikone Watch Scorpion, as it has the stats of the pre-tiericide Scorpion as it wasn't updated when the normal one was.

I vaguely remember talk of adding a paint slot in the fitting screen if this gets developed further. It would be kind of funny if they made it a lowslot and people swap out plates or a dcu for paint.

What's better than an officer fitted ALOD ship? A painted one!
