Yes this^^ Bloody hell, one would think that it's a simple choice, choose a gift or don't. What's this debating about ? Just thank CCP for the thought and play on.

Forum Fighter wrote:Remap obviously. The remap is worth more than everything else combined. really depends....
On my alt that already had one remap available I just used up that remap to go all out on charisma and chose the Neural Remap option for the gift to get a new remap on December 22nd which I can then use at my leisure to get out of charisma again.
On this character my next remap is due in March. Assuming the remap gift is using the same mechanics as the remap gift after the learning skill removal, I would only be able to bring forward the March remap to December 22nd and would have to wait a full year after that before getting a new remap (i.e. not get a remap in March). This would not be of value to me. |

From looking at this it just seems to me to be a desperate marketing attempt by certain CCP elements to inflate their nex store sales figures to make it look like they're doing well, if people spend this free aurum then they can say that people have actually spent money on it even though we all know that isn't the case they can't be proved wrong because of them using virtual currencies.
I just keep it in my wallet so they don't get their hopes up and give up on these stupid micro transactions. |

Dessies? Nope. Useless ships? Nope. Terrible implants, or ones I already have? Nope. Remaps? Hmmm... I never have an extended skill plan. I train whatever I feel like at the moment! Boosters & Quafe? Nope. Laser crystals? Nope, I don't use lasers for PVP or PVE. Projectile ammo? Nope, do I like like I want Proton and other useless types? Hybrid ammo? As far as I'm concerned, only AM, Void and Null exist. Missiles? Nope, I have enough T2 missiles . AURUM? Well.... Fine... Maybe there'll be some nice pants or a tuxedo later.
I'm not complaining, though! We've already gotten two implants! |

I took the remaps.
The giveaway aurum offers are an obviously desperate attempt to breath some illusionary life into a dead and rotten MT store. If you want to play the wise long game just ignore it and it'll end up getting more desperate yet (and giving more aurum away) or will fold completely and give everything away (ie adding the NeX content to the character designer / faction lp stores).

I dont realy care for the Arum, tho there are some things in there that are a bit more intresting; The zephyr or the remap for example.
Also, anyone know if those fuelblock BP's are BPO's or BPC's? |

I picked
2 x Thrasher(lots of ammo) 1 x Medium hybrid 1 x Medium projectile 1 x Medium missile
All usefull to me. I don't use the remaps, I'm happy with my current attributes. Not sure what that guy with 20mil sp is talking about though. Training isn't importamt after 20mil sp?
I still have all my free AUR from eveisreal. Buy most of my clothes on the market. Would have been happy to add 2k more though.
Thanks CCP for all the goodies! -á"Nerf it cause I can't fly it". I want to fly a badass Mon Calamari stlye-ácruiser painted to match my Tron clothes. |

Hmm... well actually, looking around at contracts, I think the Quaffe zero opt'ers might be on to something. In ISK terms, that might be the most valuable option. I still can't make up my mind..

I also took trashers . Dont know why, never flied one.
What i meant that optimalizing SP/hrs is not "the most important thing" in EVE. once you reach some level lets say you can fly BS T2 fitted and well munins or zealots whatever... Then you are actually usable combat character .
Sure for industry and science the level of SP is probably different. |

In case that some of you didn't decided yet, here's a word of advice from Mittens:
http://www.tentonhammer.com/node/208990/page/2
Quote:However, I can say - purely from unspoken nuances that arenGÇÖt covered by NDAs - that CCP seems to have backed away from the NeX store concept. Aurum seems to be a dirty word - or a bitter joke - around the office. This isn't to say that CCP will never implement some form of microtransactions, but the devs now contemplate the idea with a degree of care bordering on the terror - Microtransaction PTSD, as it were.
In case you already took the 2,000 AUR, I suggest to petition to withdraw your choice before holiday gifts are sent december 22nd.
(Frankly, I smelled rats about giving away an esteemed 250 million to people when everything else is around the 40 million mark...)
So... no affordable NEx store... no full-fledged Incarna... no new casual content... no new solo content... no new PvE content...-á
Why should I keep paying to play this game? |

Good. They need to just remove the NeX store completely and vow never to stoop that low again(at least in EvE). |

Good. Seems the Eve developers have come to see Aurum in exactly the same light that players opposed to Microtransactions contaminating Eve online do.

I am sure this is just another example of "The Mittani" blowing smoke out of his ass. CCP can't possibly be stupid enough to introduce something like the NEX store and then just drop it and let it stagnate forever just because of a few whiny bitches that don't understand that CCP needs to make money and can't possibly just ignore something that doesn't effect them if they don't want to use it.

I might've taken the AUR, and I'd be happy to buy some with plex too, if only there was ANYTHING remotely interesting to spend it on...
how about a business suit for the indys? some piratey gear? racial specific stuff? lingerie?
c'mon CCP. it's already there, just add some more clothes... |

Damn shame.
Service that didn't exist before, didn't require a lot of development, provided a nice isk sink and didn't impinge upon anybodies gameplay.
Killed by a bunch of binge drinking frat boys.
Thats ok, I hope CCP just moves the nex store and future items like ship skins etc to account management for real dollars, no more spending surplus isk on a monocle through the market. Account bound vanity items for cash only thanks.
Or just up the subscription rate and plex cost. Probably overdue for a bump. |

those "few whiny bitches" are the difference between the company succeeding or failing. They are pretty much the user base who decided to express their strong disapproval for microtransactions this summer and autumn.
Your are remaking the same bankrupt arguments as NeX-advocates have all along that have been refuted a thosand times. CCP makes money by increasing the number of subscribers. You don't get to make a significant additional income from MT payments in a premium subscription total unless your customers are idiots. Just because some of the idiots are vocal idiots doesn't change this essential dynamic.
If you want to give CCP extra money without impacting the sandbox I suggest you withdraw a hundred bucks from an ATM machine, address an envelope to "CCP hilmar - Iceland", slip the cash inside and feel good about yourself.
(alternatively you could open a 2nd account or buy some extra plex).
Just quit pushing this NeX crap on the rest of us who want our contact delivered by in-game player-centric production systems that express the unique vision of the Eve single server universe.

Or stop wasting untold millions of Eve subscription dollars developing World of Darkness on the dodgy provisio it'll kick back some wonderful incarna tech for us to swoon over.
Wait. Hasn't that already happened?
