Please explain how by them offering everyone access to there accounts for free, old / new / expired and completely free access with limitations to anyone who wishes to try the game unhindered by time restraints, Trial has become pay 2 win.

So you suggest that someone who pays 3 dollars a month should have the same access rights as someone who pays 15 dollars to PI / industry / Invention / Maunfacturing but because they only fly small ships its fine ... Really

So thats one part out the way, how is it that trial has now become pay 2 win

So when it was labelled as "Trial" be it 14 - 21 - 30 days and maybe upto a possible 1 mill sp's gained give or take that was fine albeit limited by skill sets and time.

Now they offer Alpha states ( Unlimited trial / free play mode) you get 5 mill skill points but you can't do anything because theyre too limited or viewed as Pay 2 Win, they have access by unlimited time alone to far more than the "Trial Toons" ever had but its not enough.

So all those people / corps / alliances who have helped trial accounts over the years with there limited skill points have been wasting there time, i mean having 5 mill skill points to work with now and zero time barrier just doesnt cut it compared to 1 million and upto 30 days of play to make your mind up if your ready to commit to playing.

I can understand peoples concerns in certain area's like safety setting in high, ganking the industry / manufacturing / markets but to claim pay2win and not enough to keep them engaged is laughable. Where do you draw the line between a fully paid up player and a free mode player that is a happy medium then ??

You are trying to turn it into a pay to win system, the more you pay the higher the ship class you pilot and how are even smaller ships for alpha's ( free play mode ) going to make them feel like they are able to accomplish anything like what they had even in the old trial system.
Edit: Actually we have them already - Ibis, Velator, impairor and whatever the skip rats fly you want them to be in rookie ships for the duration

To be fair thats utter garbage from the moment you uttered its been pay 2 win for some time, your idea of multiple clones is by far the most offensive way of segregating every single tier of ship i've seen so far and price bracket it in that way. It not trying to be a world of tanks and any other free to play garbage out there which want hand in wallet sessions for everything you do. Its to offer anyone new or old a chance to experience the game unhindered by time limitations upto a certain class of ship and skill set free. If you like it you sub, if your unsure you continue in the freemode gameplay, if its not your cup of tea you leave but you can still try it again with having to start again. It's pretty simple.

So lets be clear here, they're giving you unfettered access to the EvE universe for free to everyone old and new, they're now giving you 5 million skill points for free - All which are replacing the old trial very limited SP accumulation and at max 30 days play. In your wisdom you say that a tiered system of paying is better for people wanting to try and see if this is the game they could play for any length of time

No, it's a convoluted and annoying system, and it's flawed beginning with its inception.

Unless you believe that the current set-up that EVE has makes the game P2W, I can't fathom how you've gotten it in your mind that a time-unrestricted trial account will suddenly make the game P2W.

Time-unrestricted trial accounts do not suddenly make a Pay-to-Play game become a Pay-to-Win game.

If you make the game that alpha clones can experience a lot more "real" and "full" that what they're talking about now, then you run the risk of reducing the number of alpha clones who will ever upgrade to omega.

It will also mean more and more veterans can reduce the number of omega accts they have by replacing them more and more with alphas. IOW, from both old AND new players, CCP will be making less cash.

That doesn't seem like the right way to go to keep the game healthy. The alpha experience MUST be lackluster compared to the omega or else there is no incentive to pay for the omega.

The problem with that is the verbiage, not with the execution. EVE is only going to be P2W with this change if it has always been P2W. If you want to argue that, then you're on your own, because I don't feel like killing that many brain cells just to understand it enough to argue with you.

In its current incarnation, there are people in rookie who are actually earning enough for a plex whilst they are in there trial time. So if its possible to do that when time restricted then in an endless time cycle freeplay mode you will have equal if not more of a chance to attain this level of earning ergo making your pay 2 win scenario a mute point.

That is also with t1 kit and racial ships nothing fancy.

Pay 2 win is where you have a free 2 play business model then with microtransaction you purchase in game items such as booster packs - building materials - x2 or x3 item speed ups and the old chestnut golden ammo. They are not selling these little miracle pack to make you better than anyone else in eve, You have currently trial mode and full access come november trial becomes Alpha - ( just a better trial a free play mode) Omega - full access, They have not changed the business model of the game its a subscription game as always.

Here CCP are doing what others have done, They have merely opened the game up to everyone by removing any limitation on how long they play before the game publisher ends there free time in the environment. They have also given the free play mode player the chance to interact with more of the game with upping there skill point pool three fold.

All you keep quoting are the click bait headlines of the gaming media and maybe to some extent how CCP actually delivered the news to them in the first place. If you read any of the article published on this further than the headline most go into detail on the limitations of the alpha and how the game is opened to full access with omega.
Edit :
I will add to this though, if after a short time we see become available in the NEX shop .....

Beta clone : bring your neural training upto the same as a omega for XXX
Gamma clone: be able to train into small T2 weaponry for XXX
Delta clone be able to train into small T2 hulls for XXX

Then this is a paid advancement above the alpha clone ( Trial - free play mode ) and an additional payment of the subscription model - Omega and would constitute a pay2 win scenario.

Buy 2 play - one off payment and play your game - Expansion still fall under the same category
Pay 2 play - You either have to buy the game or you get the game for free but has a recurring monthly payment
Free 2 play - No cost to base game no recurring monthly payments - Usually has the - in game purchases available

Then you can throw into the mix all the crap like founder's packs or other innocuous drivel where free 2 play publishers try to hook you with one off items rare mounts and special edition junk and you can end up spending more on those than you would a premium well established franchise title for beta access or play for a week before anyone else.

I've never classed a subscription as a microtransaction. Its upfront your made fully aware of what the product entails then its up to you whether you want to continue or purchase a product of this nature.
