I'm not against this idea overall - but a question (one that was missed in your FAQ)... what happens with AUR balances *less* than 1,000 on launch day? Are these going to be lost, meaning we should spend them now? What about those balances "not quite enough" to buy something yet. Do we have to specifically buy AUR now, so that we can spend as much as possible? |

- infinite cyno alts.
- infinite research jobs. just plex for an hour to install the jobs
- infinite ganking alts. plex each alpha for a couple hours each, and gank a few freighters!
obviously its not literally 'infinite', there is still a limit as to how many computers you have and how many clients each of those can run... but why have 1 account for 30 days when you can have 30 accounts for 1 day?
i dont really see this change as useful. it just obscures the true cost of 30d subscription, and bypasses most of the f2p problems that were previously restricted. and whats the benefit? so you can carry 15 days of gametime in your ibis instead of 30?
You cannot buy a sub for 1 hour, you still need to pay for 30 days worth of Omega. So it will cost you the 500 new PLEX for an Omega level sub.

To remove AUR, and replace it with PLEX, meaning they need a smaller measure.

Klyith wrote:though #2 isn't a terrible option. the $50 Aurum pack will convert to just over 1500 nu-plex, which is a better deal than most of the plex packs. If you're in the habit of buying a plex now and then that's close to plex sale prices.
It's still an option that requires you to spend additional money to get something you already paid for. It won't work in all situations - I have 4 accounts, and each one has a few hundred (in the 300 range) AUR. So I either pay for AUR on 4 accounts, or lose quite a bit, since there is no consolidation system that lets me spend the AUR on stuff I want. |

Q: With smaller PLEX, will I be able to buy less than 30 days of Omega time?
A: We currently have no plans regarding smaller game time packages.
Are you guys serious? How stupid is that?
It's not stupid at all. It's avoiding a rash of '1 day omegas' for cynos, hotdroppers and the like.
