Personaly, I would not want this to happen. This is because it would seriously unbalance the game. Capital pilots would be able to plex solely for a fight, those who have month long subscriptions would gain no real benefit from it. In turn you would see the price for 1 NuPlex end up the same price as 1 OldPlex, which would defeat the purpose of the new PLEX system.
Edit: Having a bit of trouble with removing the lock on this thread. Disagree 100%, The new Plex system was only implemented to reduce the number of alphas plexing their accounts By artificially raising the prices 50-100% to force subscriptions. CCP is trying to raise subscription numbers but theyre actually just pushing new players away who can't afford to subscribe or Plex now. People who can actually afford to subscribe are already subscribed, new and returning players are back because it was supposed to be cheaper to play and go directly to Plex. Old Plex system was much cheaper and intuitive for everyone involved, Plus a broken down chunk of time for one day let's say would mean your still not training for 29 days. Assuming I was going to queue up a 14 day skill it would take me over a year if I only bought one day per month to play as omega with 0 impact on the market.
Well you're entitled to an opinion, even when its factually incorrect, PLEX and AURUM were merged, the combined mini PLEX can be used as either of these currencies without the need to exchange them, before you had to convert a PLEX in to aurum and there was, as far as i know, no way to turn it back in to a PLEX, now you get to skip all of that and just use PLEX to buy whatever you want, yes, as a result the price went up, can't say most of us didn't expect that, PLEXing an account is already more expensive than buying a subscription so it would make very little sense for CCP to discourage it, they want to sell the maximum number of PLEX as they make more money from it so making it harder for alphas to PLEX isn't the end goal here and was not the reason for the change, might want to loosen that tinfoil hat you're wearing :P |
