And there I was in another thread suggesting that the way it was going all that would be left for the HTFU types to shoot was other HTFU types, where each of them would be waiting for each other to do something in game to drop on them which of course they would not do... Would be hilarious to not watch...
Well you are at least giving them something to shoot, I just wonder if their ego's will still be massaged shooting such easy to kill characters, my bet is yes. Well a great way to give them the thrill of easy kills.
Why don't you go the entire hog CCP and give them free ships and stuff to be shot in to keep enough debased cannon fodder in play for the poor misunderstood HTFU players...
Actually I am a bit amazed at this move to be honest...

Still cannot get away from my initial feelings, this just introduces people to be farmed as easy kill cannon fodder, how many people will play a game where they will be slaughtered with ease by paying players. Eve is a kill farming game, the simple thing is that people got fed up with the imbalances around this and left, and now you want to bring in free player cannon fodder to keep the kill farmers interested. I noticed people who I classify as kill farmers who just like easy no risk kills liking the idea, their ego's need massaging obviously.
It will not work.
You would have been better off removing the imbalances and making the base account have two toons usable and trainable at the same time and six characters to chose from, while your free to play game on a single character only with no restrictions and reduced training speed. But I guess that you are too worried about your fall off in cash from that change to subs
I had a question whether the kill farmers would still find it satisfying to kill alpha clones and I think they will, after all they shoot anything that moves, and the white knuckle fights are not their fun anyway.
So CCP I just think you are going deeper into your destructive rabbit hole, it is a pity as there is so much good about this game, however I was already de-subbing and I for one will not play in an alpha clone to be an easy farm kill.
You are obviously hoping to attract old players back, but they left for other reasons which you don't deal with and coming back in an easy kill clone ain't going to work as it makes those issues even more evident. And those new players once they realise just how naff their clones are against paying players will walk away too.
Sorry but this is not going to end well...

People have been calling multiple accounts "pay to win" since I started EVE in 2006.
EVE is just an MMO with 30 eur/month fee if one wants to get the full EVE experience (which starts at 2 accounts).
This is the important point, you can only really play Eve effectively with two accounts, I either play with two accounts or de-sub and I am not into grinding for plex either. That is perhaps something that CCP needs to look into on top of this suggestion, I have raised this issue a number of times on the forums and suggested a number of different ways to do this, because CCP may need to control who has Alpha accounts perhaps looking into this aspect too would be a good idea.
I can tell CCP that were I able to run two characters under one sub I would not be de-subbing, I can also point out that from November when these Alpha accounts are available, I will log back on to chat to people, but I have no intention of undocking in any of my mains.

With a character stacked to 5 million SP you do not have the pleasure to see your skills grow and your character evolve. So yes, Omega clone is better. Perhaps in pvp, alpha clones can fight Omega and win.
It is because he is not a very good player, just look at his Proteus loss and you will understand...
