Hi Guys,
I want to see more new users coming into the game. I feel lot of systems are empty.
I don't know what can be done but maybe 6 months trial with some certain skill limit or whatever is the best choice. People need to play the game free a little so they enjoy it and pay for it. 30 day trial doesn't help. A lot to learn and get use to this game. Also there should be corp that accepts new users and take them around mining, shooting etc to teach people this game. also we enjoy the game when channels full space has more people.
Lot of game's do free gaming these days with shop that people buy extra modules skin guns etc.
I'm not saying do the same or not putting ideas but WE NEED MORE USERS MORE PEOPLE so You need to give longer trial or skill limit trials like 5Million skill limit etc and do some advertisement. Need to block people using this trials to create 10 people mining fleets lol. More people, more fun, more money for eve, more content, more workers.
Lot of important aspects tied up to this.
This should be the main priority.

maybe follow other MMO by offer unlimited time for trial account, and need to pay price of full game to upgrade from trial?
And, maybe add more skill to restricted so Trial can't use them in order to encourage them to buy account and play |

1. Reset Eve known space somehow (maybe not entirely) and add completely new universe to settle in 2. Free to play for trial users but not letting them to become threat to experienced chars 3. Lower sub fee 4. ADVERTISE! 5. Built in Valkirie-like mode (ie Elite-D mode) with Oculus integration asap

I'd abuse that to have unlimited free spies. Spies don't need much for skills.

there is other one thing I am concern as well, unlimited PI alts. thus may need to move all PI to restricted. But it is up to debate
second thing,
no amount of skills can block spies, but maybe make it so there is TRIAL banner similar to WANTED banner?
so that way, it is up to corp to decide if they should risk to accept trial account or not. |

Anything over a month will only be an abuse to the game and make EVE far from outstanding thus limiting new players as Vets just grumble. Games that put newbies as a priority usually fail. CCP seems to be headed in generally the right direction.

I don't think an extended trial will accomplish much - if you enjoy this game, you'll find the 50 cents a day you need to play. Eve's strength - the unpartitioned sandbox - can also be its weakness. When hungry sharks and minnows are swimmiing in the same pool, a lot of minnows aren't going to make it, but those that do will probably stay with the game for a long time.
Broadening the appeal of the game will probably require partitioning the sandbox. New Eden is a big place and most of it is empty so there is room for a theme park if CCP and the player community want one - but making it destructible would kind of defeat the purpose! |

The think is 30 day trial doesnt help generally. I remember I couldnt learn much in 30 days. This game is big. you learn this game more fun when you actually get into it later.
I definitly thinking 6months or skill limit. So people can play free but cant go further with buying plex or paying or it.

I agree with the first paragraph. Eve by it's very nature is going to have a relatively low new player retention. The fact that actually playing eve is only rarely like what the advertising makes it look like is part of that. But a commercial showing a gate camp of bored nerds linking fleet porn isn't likely to attract new customers.
As to the second part, only if the theme park were very small, and provided little to no ability to make actual money. Maybe enough to screw around with some t1 fit t1 frigates and not much more. Otherwise people would just use it as a shelter for their carebear activities.

The trial idea is already plausible, because the amount of open clients is limited..
but.. that's no implication that the game would get a bunch of subs. There are plenty of posts about this, but the most helpful are these:
There are plenty of studies on motivation and reward (including in video games), and SP progression fulfills almost none of that: socialization, competence, and freedom. It doesn't fulfill socialization because of the low value of fresh characters (for corps and gameplay), nor competence because of the limitations on piloting ability and ship selection, nor the freedom and autonomy of gathering and piloting great ships.
Would it not seem disgusting for the playstyle trait that enjoys mastery and competition, that stations are empty because of limited marketing and industry SP, that null discussion's exclamations of boredom would be simply mitigated by alliances having enough fully-functional characters for fulfilling fleet requirements (and thus challenging sov efficiently, and at all), and that the game might seem unworthy of the sub if there's not enough budgeted for getting a character from the bazaar? "Yet there's so much gameplay," it might would be said, because there's nothing more than surveying the MMO and having no role in it because the development design disallows it.
Games like Star Citizen that would actively provide the same benefits of role fulfillment and would set that gameplay up without monetization gating.
In other words, if the game doesn't provide a competitive scene, those potential subs will probably find other games. Competitive here is summarized in tandem with the other forms of motivation and reward that are mentioned, including competence ("Does this support eager learning and feelings of relevance?") and freedom. |

I was going to try to disagree with a premise hiding in here or some of the logic or something. Unfortunately, I quickly realized that while this is syntatically English it manages to convey absolutely no meaning beyond competence in buzzwords and strong opinion.
So drop that. I'll just say something else entirely.
Having new subs is indeed a Good Thing, especially if they stick around. Breaking the game for new subs, however, is a Bad Thing since it drives away the base. Walking that line is indeed hard, but honestly I don't think CCP is doing a bad job right now. |

There may be less subs now, but I doubt there are all that many fewer players.
Many recent changes have devalued the value and need for alts, and I would bet that's the largest part of what we are losing.
I find that to be a good thing in itself, because alts are one of the biggest reasons we can't have nice things. Every change has to be filtered through a 'how will alts break the intent'. The problem there is that it reduces everything to mindless shooting, because any other form of profit through competition can be gamed through the use of alts---when you are playing all sides at the same time, you are bound to win.
That said, if more subs are what you are after then a change in the direction of the games development away from all direct PvP all the time and toward making EVE an online world again with more than the fiction section of their website will help. All those nasty things the PvP crowd hates like walking in stations and allowing for more security in building and growing things.
Pure PVP games have always been popular, but ones that grow are the ones that foster teamwork. EVE isn't pure PvP, and it actively undercuts building teamwork or community. It worships screwing over your 'friends', while placing the most materialistically profitable activities into ships intended to be prey. That makes it extremely niche in terms of retaining players.

With the jump range changes and jump fatigue many of the cap ship pilots do not need as many accounts to house their cyno alts all over the EvE universe so they are letting those subs expire. In my prime game time we are down from about 20,000 characters online on an average day to about 16,000 to 17,000 and I wonder how many of those lost were cyno alts? I know that my son has dropped 3 accounts and a friend of mine has dropped 5 accounts and all of those characters were cyno alts.
Before we can get all up in arms about changes needed to keep accounts / characters in the game we need to understand how, where and why the character count has dropped. Given that the affects of the sov changes are really just starting to settle into the game as a whole I would side with them going away because they were cyno alts that are no longer needed.
I still am on the -1 side to your OP idea as there are to many ways this could be abused to the detriment of the game, that and I am not convinced that you are correct despite all your "scientific" mumbo jumbo. |

you'd have to link some of these studies for starters. Ones with data and methods used explained in detail and available for download. I am studying data science. One of our basic laws is research must be reproducible. IE....give us the data and the code used. One of the key things we look for is confounders. Something that looks like its linked...but its not. I've seen science research, talking lfe or death implications....suffer from improper analysis.
I'd also like to see its age break downs. See I have a theory....its the young bloods who do not know of life before "dlc" that drive this drivel really. I started gaming on a commodore 64 when it was new from the then viable company. Many years of gaming the take away basically. I remember when games had everything you could ever have in them.....day 1. In the "base" game.
How to unlock it? Lots of hardwork and dedication. I unlocked Tofu in Resident Evil 2 on a PS1 loooong ago for example. Google how to do this. its not easy. Today's DLC crap....this would be a cough up a few $ for it really.
I have seen this crap kill racing games. I long for the days of GT1 and 2. Rare exotic car...wnat it bad enough you run the races to get it. Not cough up $ for it. Also long for older FPS days. Want that skin? that weapon? Spam that game till you unlocked it. This mindset seems to be more in tune with older gamers. Younger gamers seem to be the DLC it crowd. Not all of course...but that's me eyeballing it.
Secondly what star citizen are you playing that isn't monetized gaming. It already has tiered rewards for backers. Over several pledge drives. Rewards that to me incur some benefit to actual game play. They are far from cosmetic for damn sure. Now when production SC is going to have to make a hard call. Make these exclusives to backers stay exclusive...or not. Tough call....as well I missed a few good backer deals. Do I want to be head to head with the peeps who got these....nope. I'd want them too. So do they make me happy an tell backers umm, yeah, your exclusive not going to be exclusive anymore. Or do they tell me sucks to be you,.....you didn't back us day1. Can't wait to see how that plays out tbh,,,, |

Problem with an outstanding game for vets is how they often also being poor games for newbies. I'm not saying it's impossible but vets telling their friend to try it out won't work if they friend has to deal with a metric ass ton of BS before getting to the outstanding part that the vet appreciate.
Every MMO wants more subs but it's not easy to pull off no matter what line you try to follow. If it was easy, they would all have have millions of subs. |

I'm dead serious. The majority of the words you strung together don't mean anything in this context. They are words that management consultants and grad students use, often quite differently, to describe things in specific contexts that may and may not apply. Without actually, you know, citing a study or two or bothering to define your terms you've communicated nothing. Not "nothing of value", literally nothing.
But sure, for the sake of argument, let's assume that the amorphous "research" has indeed been done and that some sort of theoretical framework has been applied to the data to explain the observed phenomena. The categories used make sense in the context of the study and seem to offer some sort of predictions. Maybe we can even identify some real correlation coeffecient that isn't entirely arbitrary -- but let's face it, this isn't real science and so that is maddeningly tricky to do well.
Even if all that were true it wouldn't add up a definite prescriptive formula for Eve. Until we were to satisfy ourselves that Eve fit into the theoretical framework of the aforementioned studies then it would be a mistake to even begin to draw conclusions about what ought or ought not be done to change the game. The fact that Eve often defines itself as explicitly not like, say, Wow further complicates matters and likely renders the entire conversation moot.
tl;dr: You can't just march in and say that some ill-defined "research" justifies changes without doing a hell of a lot of legwork getting from one to the other. |

Guys let stay on topic.
I feel like we can definitely use some free gaming. Like I said High sec limited and Skill Limited will be fine. We paid users wont be affected and this people will be learning the game and grow into high sec and eventually pay for moving on to lov sec null sec or wormholes,
Of course there are spies and haters and some bull people but that is something to discuss later.
Main ponit is 10K-20K more people in to this game might be more fun for us. I see lot of recruitment channels empty. with school starting we will get new people but it is perfect time to start some free gaming and get them into start the game. |

Actually, that post very clearly lists a question, "Does [SP] support eager learning and feelings of relevance?" In other words, does it promote immediate depth of play.. or feelings of confidence and competitiveness?
Does it promote item-filled stations and autonomy and freedom? |

1.Repair corp mechanics 2.Make scaning sigs much more difficult and more engaging (actually hide some sigs from this stuipid overlay completely) 3.Redesign stars so youd see it getting smaller as you warp away 4.Make eve more realistic and explain why things work in a certain way. Saying that the world is different from ours and phisics does not apply in a fantasy waterlike space does more harm than good for those who are looking for scifi experience. 5.high res graphics 6.new nullsec on the other side of wh in a different galaxy. Seperated small seperated isle of claimable space of few stars here and there(few thousand total) Perfect for smaller alliances. If ccp continue to deny access to sov for anybody who doesnt belong to big coalitions then the game will suffer more and more. 7.And the biggest one - WIS .

These two being next to one another makes me laugh.

I'm not saying do the same or not putting ideas but WE NEED MORE USERS MORE PEOPLE so You need to give longer trial or skill limit trials like 5Million skill limit etc and do some advertisement.

I do not think an unlimited trial (or even a longer trial) would eb good for the game. at 20 days you can have an incredibly proficient suicide alt. at 20 days you can have an incredibly proficient scout. New players often decide to sub to get rid of the restrictions of the trial account long before the 20 day limit because they wanna try something that they can't. I don't see your idea making many new subs but I do see it's potential for serious abuse (and that's just what I would do with them)

Quote:We paid users wont be affected and this people will be learning the game and grow into high sec and eventually pay for moving on to lov sec null sec or wormholes, You lost me right here.
As long as a player can... - affect the economy - act as eyes for another - move/loot items
... they are affecting others. Mind you, if you limit the skills enough, you can minimize the impact of each character's/account's effects. However, because characters/accounts are basically free and IP addresses are trivial to fake/scramble you can create limitless amounts of alts for any purpose you can dream of...
as long as it isn't terribly skill intensive...
... which is pretty much everything in the game that isn't fleet warfare or high-end industry.
A character specialized in hauling with Deep Space Transports, Blockade Runners, and Freighters take about 2 months to train. A character specialized in probing down stuff takes less than a month to train. A character specialized in market trading shenanigans takes less than 2 weeks. A character that is geared for ganking? Less than a week.
My alt character on this account? I trained him up to 30 million skillpoints and then stopped. He doesn't need to have more because I do not intend to do more with him than run missions, play the market, and ferry stuff around. And he still finds the time to affect others by occasionally ninja looting carebears and crashing small regional markets.
EVE was just never designed for the "free-to-play" model. And you can't really change that without fundamentally altering the game itself in a way where it stops being "EVE."

Listed Ideas So far:
1) Longer Trial Period to get users more familiar with eve 2) High sec free gaming only. (Free gamers are only allowed in high sec also with skill limit) 3) Lower sub fee for beginners 4) ADVERTISE! right place right people 5) Discourage random acts of stupid aggression (Stealing) (Lot of users left the game due they corp get robbed and died) 6)
in the same time: unlimited PI alts, unlimited spies, need to watch out for this. (1 Free account PER IP maybe ?)
Please sent me in private what you think it is best idea to bring users i will add to list.

Hello there,
Here is my humble opnion: EVE is a special kind of MMO, it is not for everyone but we should still try to make every new player feel like they have a chance to settle in and find a place or activity within EVE that they enjoy.
It should be about giving people a chance to try out as much as possible.
My suggestions are not about monetization or restricting the gameplay of veteran player but about making the game more fun and exciting for new and old players.
1. Remove / hide attributes, remove learning implants and attributes from other implants and introduce more skill hardwirings to slot 1-5.
Why? Attributes prevent both old and new player from trying out skills that are outside their current attribute configuration (learning missiles as int/mem and so on). Learning Implants or attributes on other implants make people more afraid to undock because they fear to lose out on precious skillpoints either by undocking with +5 implants and losing them or by using only a +3 clone. Replacing these learning implants with skill hardwirings (that actually improve the performance of the clone) will keep all the people happy who like big numbers from pod kills.
2.Let new characters learn skills at a faster pace. Example (with only 30 days per month): 1. Month 5000 SP/H (3.600.000 SP at the end of the month) 2-6. Month 4000 SP/H (14.400.000 SP during the 2. to 6. month) 7-12. Month 3000 SP/H (12.960.000 SP for the last 6 month of the first year) Every character older than one year would learn at the current 2700 SP/H.
Hope these numbers are correct. Numbers can be adjusted but the basic idea is to learn fast at the beginning and slow down to the normal learning rate by the end of the first year.
Why? One of the most exciting things when you start EVE is this huge amount of skills and possible paths to take. There is so much to try out but it takes so long to learn but this change allows new players to make the most of their first month and at the end of the year you feel like you can stand toe to toe with the veteran players (skillpoint wise) but still have alot to learn.
During the first month a new player could easily learn all necessary skills to IV for several career paths in EVE and try them out or focus on one and come very close to perfecting it.
After the first year a new player (or character) will have aquired 30.960.000 SP. That is around 7-8 million skillpoints more than a character with +5 and perfect remap could achieve and it is enough to try different things out and still be competent at more than one.
3. Introduce missions that ask a player to travel to low, null or w-space. No special item to aquire or station to land at, only a certain low / null system (random for every player) or a certain number of different w-space systems to be visited. How a player gets their doesn't matter. No time limit, no way to fail it, can only be done once per week. Payout (5-15 milion credits should be enough, alot for new players) should depend on the number of jumps to reach the destination or number of w-systems to visit.
Why? All the EVE players who want new people to go outside of high-sec are right. The first time it feels dangerous but sooo exciting even if the system was actually empty and there was no threat at all. So this type of mission gives new players a direction to start with, a reason to leave high-sec, a goal to reach, a destination to travel to.
The reason it should be done only once a week is simple: prevent abuse of more experienced players as much as possible and give new players time to complete them without the new player feeling rushed.
So with these three suggestions we gave (new) players a way to try out different career paths in EVE by letting them learn faster, we took away the fear of losing skillpoints by doing something dangerous and/or new for both new and old players and we gave (new) players a reason to leave high-sec (perhaps they will like what they see out there).
Of course Malcanis' Law still applies. For veteran players it will be easier and faster to train alts for certain purposes and the new mission type will allow players with alot of characters to gain alot of credits but it also means more targets because more people will no longer be afraid to undock because of their expensive learning implants.
Thanks for reading.

If anybody knows about corp theft and it's effects on players it is master thief Nitshe. We have determined that of the last 11 reported thefts Nitshe was behind 9 and is suspected to be involved in the on going investigation 11. Check out C&P forum for more details
