Who would spend real life money on a game that has shrinking numbers, less opportunities and less need for more expensive ships?
1) Players are unsubbing 2) Capitals are now more of a burden than before 3) Deflation is starting to become a problem in all other markets (See Pith and T3 prices) 4) New player numbers dropping (they tend to sell plex on the market to vets) 5) Lack of new players means a huge isk sink is gone (Skillbooks) 6) Game is losing its focus and fun for many, which means more PLEX and less SUB
Problem with a shrinking player count, shrinking opportunities and lower entertainment value means people won't spend cash on this game, whether that is cash for pay to win (PLEX) or cash for subs (Play with Plex)
As a result, Plex has no limit, this is hugely bad for the game.

A dozen of new Skins almost every week since various months is for sure another pusher for the Plex price. |

*shrugs* meh Considering some PLEx Specials offer by CCP occurs on a few accounts at $9.99 or $13 or $29 for 2 PLEx. You have to include your finite dollars and pay before the offer expires. As for electricity , get a solar panel or a bike with energy convertor / generator battery charger (if your food bill is worthwhile). (This does not include a $60 cab fare to avoid being late for work due to PvP delays... Or diversions)

First of all, what happened to the Ministry of Defence?
And reading this thread makes me wonder what the price will be by the time I get back home in October. Crikey!

I think the last time we had so less PLEX in the market i made a topic about it https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=152886.
Price spiked like crazy when someone else bought them out completly and CCP had to intervene. I guess CCP will do that again if PLEX are spiking that hard again but in the end it won't matter. PLEX are profoundly over 1b and i doubt they will ever go back.
I'm glad i stocked up my PLEX at 755m with 1100m i'm up 138b profit, nothing can beat passive income ;)

Nothing lasts forever. Vacation is over, time to pay attention to real life for a while. Some day...
I remember when PLEX was stable at around 500 mil mark, then suddently it went up in a matter of months, same thing is happening now, it will stabilize, I just wonder when...Long term though it's not going to stop. When I began playing it was less than 300 mil...
So like ori McKie said, it's always a good idea to stockpile in the right time, however in his case that must have been 400-500 PLEXes, not everyone can invest that much. |

It still looks good in the books.

I actually ran out of liquid isk yesterday ridding plex. I love unstable markets, preferably when I create them myself but I'm happy to ride them when I see them. I put 7b+ profits in the books yesterday.
I do well in seeing short term trends and futures, but what does the long term future hold for plex??

Sudden spikes in price will always bring in new investors. You'll probably witness another price hike before it falls.
My question is how has it taken so long to go from 900 to here? Shouldn't we be at 2 bil already? I know hard core ratters can farm 25+ bil/month in null so its not a matter of having a price that's too high.

CCP Terminus wrote: We've seen over the years a fairly consistent percentage of our player base PLEX their accounts. If this percentage begins to decline consistently, and is not being counteracted by an increase in subscriber counts, then I'm sure we would take a look in to the system. So far, to my knowledge, even with the ruble plummeting recently, the overall subscriber ratio hasn't really been affected. People who couldn't afford to pay subscription began PLEXing their accounts. The same is true in reverse for the PLEX speculation spike that happened late last year. The overall subscriber count wasn't really affected. After the Black Friday PLEX sale PLEX prices hovered steadily around 800m ISK for around 4 months.
That's CCP's explanation on the steady prices. It's player driven market anyway, so they are not obliged to react, but they observe it anyway. I am sure CCP keep an eye on this thread too. |
