I will bet that most complains comes from older players. This daily SPs help mostly new players to start faster. I'm a 3 month old char and I'm looking at 120+d of of just more or less basic INT/MEM skillqueue. No ships in there and without the reskill this would be 150+d. At the end of that queue I will start the Will/Perc skills that will take a lot longer. Every SP is welcome to shorten that line.
Even if people sell these point for plex it will just raise the price for plex as this will not create a greater number of PLEX so you can take higher prices.

Can I have your SPs then?
I need these SPs exactly to undock ships or I need them to earn the money to afford them (and their replacement  ) |

If this goes live in this form, I'll just make sure that each one of my accounts has all 3 character slots used and log them out in a belt. That way, I just need to log in, target, hit F1, log out. 30k SP per account and day for doing nothing beyond logging in for a minute. After a couple of weeks, I can just extract and sell. What a great deal of activity and content, right?
So why not? Do it. If it get's a tedious routine to farm SP you will stop it.
IMHO it's just a way to help fresh players. After a year it's nice but not really important to climb mount Skillpoint fast. After a year you have a solid stock of different things you can do. So this helps new players to get there faster by doing some grinding.
BTW: you have to have all your chars up to 5M SP before you can extract so you are looking for a long way to raise some new alt just by logging in.
You could do the same by running a PI on every slot you have but are you doing it or are you falling behind because you are not doing it? Don't think so.
It's a nice plus but I doubt that you will do it for long just to farm the SP. At a certaint point you just can't get better you just get some new options for different playstyles. |

And with this, it's barely going to work. If every account in Eve had 3 chars, and they would all log in for a minute every day (which won't happen) this will raise the daily average by a bit more than 1000, which is less than stellar. Sure, some players might stay logged after that, but most players won't even bother after a while, because it will become tedious rather quickly.
If they want players to play the game, they should *gasp* add content to the game. Ludicrous idea, I know.
Your playing time is limited so you are likely to just reduce the time you play with your main= no raise at all.
IMHO CCP is doing it right. It helps new players and everyone gets a bon which he can use as he likes. The discussion shows that one side has fears to fall behind while the other side mourns the extra income. You can't have both so either you climb mount Skillpoint faster OR you are making extra money. YOU choose which way you will use the SP.
BTW: What do you think are the new citadels? Content or space decoration? |
