LukAsh	Posted - 2004.02.18 10:09:00 - [1] Edited by: LukAsh on 18/02/2004 10:11:22 For me it's not just mere $2 a month - a candybar price... For me it's change from $13/month to 15EU/month. It's 50% raise. My internet connection cost will be more or less equal to bill from EVE. St I could buy myself normal game w/o bugs, frequent crashes (I lost a cruiser yeasterday becouse of a crash and beeing unable to connect soon enough) and lazy devs on top of it each month ! Fk this I like EVE a lot but it's not worth 15EU a month - it's highest bill I've ever seen on a mmorpg. ___ WTB: +5 Implants.

Bear in mind you've got to add in all the extra admin now that they actually have to deduct and pay the tax. For the americans blame your government for driving the price of the dollar down by 30%. As a side not you know how the american stock market has been rocketing away over the last year.... I wonder how big those gains are when you consider that the dollar is worth 30% ish less than it did a year ago.... Oh that's is just big bullsh... So why they don't rise everything equally - just the 1 month subscription?? Why they have 2 currencies not 1? My best guess is that they want more people on long-term subscription becouse they have too many 1 or 2 month players who quit for various reasons. After more than 8 months having only 7k players isn't very impressive... [conspiracy theory mode on] Another thing - what if Shiva wont be introduced soonÖ ?? Or what if there will be nothing after it? [conspiracy theory mode off] ___ WTB: +5 Implants.

But for me 15EU - $13 = 12 good beers !!! Quote: Now if beer went up ú2 in one go then I WOULD be miffed ;-) Now if you were me, wouldn't you be miffed?? ___ WTB: +5 Implants.

I did becouse I'm pis'ed, and do irrational things in this state... Monty Burns: Quote: But it hasn't gone up 15 euro has it? If it has gone up 15 euro then fair play ... moan, but if its NEW price is 15 from say 13 .... then ??? come on ... You haven't understood what I meant by 15EU - $13 = 12 beers. In my country - that is Poland - we don't earn as much as GB, France or USA, we earn much less, but we have this nice perk that our stuff like food or cars cost much less. Now to the beers - at current exchange rates I will have to pay (Poland will be in UE in May whooope) about 50% more (not a joke, now paying 50zloty for month, will have to pay 73zloty) each month. In beer currency I will have to pay them 11-12! more nice beers for playing EVE, totaling about 33 beers. And that is making me mad, becouse it's not worth it... I mean really - 33 good half-liter lagers form local brewery ___ WTB: +5 Implants.
LukAsh	Posted - 2004.02.19 10:12:00 - [5] Quote: Polish eh ... kewl ... spend a lot of time in Warsaw, Krakow and Wroclaw so I understand your pain (yes im from London). Been in London myself mate very nice city ;-) Quote: I agree that it may be more for you but at the end of the day you have to weigh up, can you afford/WANT to afford this much for the game? I can afford it... But I honestly think that the value of this game is not worth it. And if they want to add the tax, that would be ok for me, but they should add 22%VAT (as it is in my country), but they force me to change to euro and pay almost 50% more! If they want more money they should say that and not feed us this tax bullst. Quote:** If the price for 6 months has not changed why not just buy that? As long as you don't break the VERY liberal rules in the game you have nothing to loose :-) I thought about it, but again its about value... I want to decide what I want to do with my money and not beeing forced to choose 3 or 6 months. Especially when I'm quite bored and see not much positive changes after much anticipated Castor. Damn I haven't even seen one tech2 item with my own eyes, I just know that they are there somwhere. Doing R&D agent mission every day for over a month, and mining omber with my Omen every day just isn't so fun as it was before. So today I've cancelled my subscription I still have 20 days more left, maybe there will be a miracle... ___ WTB: +5 Implants.
