As a 2 year vet I say yeah cool.
I'd like to see them available but at the price of a genetic mutation meaning you can't train any further skill points.
Instead you can re-manipulate your skill points every so often with the right expensive Jovian equipment and techniques.

Bad idea, vets get enough perks as it is. Anyway, I'm hoping that when they finally do get introduced, they'll be sufficiently gimped that theyre sort of a 'finesse class' if you will, great for doing whatever jovians do but not something everyone and his dog is gonna go out and train for.
That being said, it would be cool if vets got some purely cosmetic toys, like an apoc shaped like a beer bottle or something. Other MMOGs are starting to do this as a little incentive to stay beyond the 8-month average or whatever it is now. _________________ [IMAGE REMOVED] -- aka Cpt Bogus -- Is that my torped sig cloaking your base?

You do get something. You've had the opportunity to get on all the ISK-printing bandwagons, the opportunity to accumulate 60 million+ skill points, the opportunity to form and administrate a major alliance, etc.
In other words, considering how this game works, the fact you've been playing for four years already is enough of a reward in and of itself.

And you have started off with more money, better attributes, more skills, less requirements, better protection, nerfing and ISK you can buy.
What would be the difference, you cant use items and ships until you take X amount of time to train it, so time is already an issue. Why not apply the same to races?

More money: I'm not seeing all that free money, but if you say so, sure.
Better attributes: Not everyone picks Achura, dude.
More skills: Oh, wow, 800k SP to start off with. That's what, 15-20 days' head start?
Requirements/protection/nerfing: Which you also have now.
ISK you can buy: You have that now, too. And not everyone buys ISK.

As a new player, I have no problem if a veteran wants a special jove perk - I propose you can have any character you want become Jove, that character will only have to pay 40M SP taken from thier highest ranked skills. Oh wait... the OP wants to have 60x more SP than a new player AND get special perks beyond that simply for being old? . |

Yeah, cause starting with 900k skillpoints equals 60m skillpoints. And starting with 500k equals the isk you were able to make in the past 4 years that gives you an advantage over new players. And your in-game experience equals that of a new player.
Oh wait, the other way around.. My bad. That said, 'nerfing' (how is that an argument?), better protection, less requirements, isk you can buy, it all applies to you as well.
The fact that you even mentioned 'isk you can buy' is just another argument that totally destroys the 'we've played for 4 years, we deserve it more' reasoning. Why? Cause you can grind for 6 months and buy a 48 month old character, or just buy isk and buy one. Then those who do not deserve it get to play this extra race, while others don't.
This'll just further widen the gap between new players and uber players which will ultimately destroy EVE in a few years, when people with 500k isk and 900k skillpoints can be wardecced by a corp worth in total 50b isk with in total hundreds of millions of skillpoints (among its members).
EVE is fun as it is, and having played for 4 years has a massive advantage over new players. Else you'd probably not be playing on your 4 year old player, but just made a trial account every 2 weeks, according to your logic.
My last post, as I like to help others go from (what I see as) wrong to right.. But if you won't accept it, then I won't try. That said, I'll bet 500billion dollars on it that CPP won't ever do this, so it's not worth any more posts from me.

CCP would have to be so careful if they where ever to introduce the Jove because SWG set the precedent of having a hard to obtain uber race and look how that turned out.
To become a Jedi was very difficult and the char could suffer perma death, lots of people began to figure out how to become Jedi but then whined about perma death, so they removed perma death but people where whining they couldn't become Jedi so bit by bit they made it easier to become one which upset the people who used the older more difficult methods. ----------------------------------------------- My new years resolution is to give up nonconstructive posting |

i actually sugested something similar, just with skill points instead-- i would ofc say yes to this idea also... BUT whatabout letting people with 80 mill sp get the ability to become jove, AND in the process loose all skill point, and start in the jove world fresh.. normal players should not be able to enter jove space BUT one day the border is open-- and a new war can start.. JOVES versus the rest.. mmmm now this idea i would FULLY indorce.. this idea would also make some people not wanting to go jove as they cant fly anything but frigs again hehehe.. but theresso many other positive sides to this.. like u wouldent see many macro miners in jove land.. i doubt the farmers have 80 mill sp yet :) OMFG

Better yet.
A player can become Jove after a certain skill point level. but in doing so they lose their current ship command skill points, and Jove Characters (due to their genetic defect) cant be cloned and suffer perma-death.

Why not have a 80 million SP needed to become a Jove, and then your character got a 99.99999999999999999999...% chance of catching the Jovian Disease. If they do (which they will) they looses all will to live and dies! Perma death. That would be awesome!
TBQFH These threads that some people make that say that old players should get so and so because they have played a long time annoys me. If you are going to make a demand, at least ask for a hooker or something. * Reavers are recruiting

Edited by: Tarminic on 20/01/2008 22:07:06 Rewards for veterans that affect anything in-game is a dumb idea. Why?
You already have 60+ Million SP, more than 90% of EVE's population, and four years of experience.
Regarding how hard it was for players "back in the day," don't bother with that argument because even with the advanced learning skills now and 20% better attributes, it would take fifteen years for a player starting now to catch up to a 4-year vet.
So quit whining. ---------------- Tarminic - 31 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.78.2 |

Edited by: Lady Branwen on 20/01/2008 22:19:18 I think being a 4 year old vet you should have the choice of being carted off to Jove space (kicking and screaming if nessasary) of course Jove space restrictions would apply to you as well, so no returning to the rest of space, ever, i think this is a great idea and if 4 yr old chars want it they should get it, personally I won't be accepting the offer when the time comes, but I wish the OP all the best in his new geriatric home

Jovians are meant to be the "big mystery", the Other People, the ships and people that everyone talks about. Handing out Jovian ships to any players, even "4 year vets" as if they are super-worthy of flying some kind of god-ship, would ruin that aspect of the game.
Also - if you are honestly saying that a 4 year veteran has no advantages over a newbie, go look at your character sheet, check your wallet and your assets, and wake up. ----In before Jonny JoJo turns this into an Amarr whine----

I agree. In fact, characters less than 4 years of age should have their ships self destruct immediately after being locked by a veteran. You know, as perks for buying an expensive character off the forums. It's only fair if it's completely unfair.

If you ignore the 5 years of training skills,wich you had to make isk to buy the books and the +3/+4/+5 implants,wich were a lot more expensive in the past(400 to 500 million isk for each +5 implant before the recent addition of the LP shop),and above all else,5 years of subscription fees to CCP,wich probably isn't too far off 750$ in total.

High SP characters are in some way like Jovians:
from http://www.eve-online.com/races/jove.asp
Quote: The most mysterious and elusive of all the peoples of EVE, the Jovians number only a fraction of any of their neighbors, but their technological superiority makes them powerful beyond all proportion.
low numbers: check ability to use advanced and expensive technology: check

You already have 60+ Million SP, more than 90% of EVE's population, and four years of experience.
I'm approaching my 4th anniversary and I only have just over 50 mil. You're mean.
And I say no.

And for 1 Bil ISK I'll prove this. Contact me ingame with the system you'd like to meet in and your ship and setup. Chances are I'll still die with this info.

why ***** about some wanting to be jove ?
lol anyway. i endorce the idea of becoming jove and would go 0 sp anyday to become one.. you see ever since the old players in the game started we have heard about the jove race etc.. hell some of us even fought em from time to time..`
once i even made a corp who worshiped the jovian wargod in a RP corp-
the jove goes deeper in somes mind than others, and that said i dont see why it shouldent be posible somehow to become a jove. its someones dream to be so..
and yes ccp could favour old players.. without them the new players wouldent be here u know ? if the ld players diddent pay gazilions of isk ower the years there would be no eve. and one day you can become jove to if u choose to so stop whining because some older players actually want the ability to go jove...

I will tell you something though................4 years ago the game was brilliant and you didnt get all the stupid whiners you get on forums like you do now complaining , and wanting things nerfed etc........ I seem to think that the average players age has become about 14 rather than 34 when i started.

Well i bought the "Eve Art" book near christmas, when i saw some of the artistic creation that went into the Jovian race, (not just the ships that look brilliant) i felt that somewhere the other races look rather bland. I don't agree that the race should now become available to any players. It would be nice if we could however fight them now and again.

I find all this vet hate amazing. If players like us didn't stick around for longer than 6 months there would hardly be an Eve. What is the issue anyway? jealous we got into the game before you? WTF?
Anyway, some interesting ideas about Jove. I reckon one day it would be very cool to open up Jove space, make it hard to get to. Maybe offer some form of genetic engineering with a suitable and permenant penalty. No need to limit it to vets, but make it hard to obtain and something you would consider carefully before doing.
I think it is something that should come a few more years down the track. After ambulation is out, after the faction war has raged and ended leaving the cluster completely changed.
Could be very interesting. I'd like to see an Eve where the 'landscape' changes significantly. Interaction with the Jove is too significant to be done soon or lightly.

Posting in a pointless thread!
I'm sure even before the devs want to think what the hell to do with Jove, we'll have chars approaching 200m SP.
Whatever happened to Devs having Jove chars? I miss their ugly faces.

No one hates you for being a veteran, at least not unless they're dummkopfs.
However, I (because I can't speak for anyone other than myself) don't believe you're entitled to anything above and beyond exactly what you've already earned ù i.e., special trinkets and/or ships and/or characters.

This.
I have no problems with vets, but no one should have any additional advantages due to the age of their character. If you want something like a medal, that's fine, but it shouldn't affect anything in-game. ---------------- Tarminic - 31 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.78.2 |

In AO they had this fantastic Veteran Points-system where people who has paid for years of game got nice almost useless items.
I wish EVE would somehow reward long customer relationship. 
It's great being Amarr isn't it.

Make it based on account age. If you have been around for 4 years, fine, you can start a Jove character.
What you gonna do with it? Train the same boring stuff that every other race has, in the (almost - not taking into account implants) same amount of time that you have made your other chars. Oh wow, big deal if they get a char.
Compare it to RL if you like (bet you don't :) ), When I started to insure my car on MY own, I had to pay around 1600 EUR per year @ 140% insurance rate. Been driving long enough now and done special courses to have it lower to 70% over time. Been a good customer, no major accidents, no damages in the millions... don't I deserve to have my rates lowered?
Apply the same to here.... you have been a loyal customer for 4 years on your ACCOUNT... here.. take this little 800k SP Jovian buddy, train all the crap you wanna play with it. Fly Amarr ships :)
You know what... nevermind.... guess it's a moot point anyway....

Edited by: Crimsonjade on 21/01/2008 14:22:06 bah bunch of carebears tbh.
only 2 things are needed 1. make a HUGE ISD event!!make it a huge event and make it HUGE not 12 ccp guys against 250 players.. more like 200 ccp employees make a surprise invasion somewhere in random space. a little random destruction is a good thing. ***** to make it happen and yeah some twits would whine. but seeing a Jove capitol fleet would make 99% of your player base go bonkers
2 make it so Chribba can mine in Jove space.. he deserves teh cookie

No Kidding. I dont post much, I can see the decline of thought process in the company we keep lately.
The funny thing is, everyone is complaining about something that either will never happes, or not be that good anyway.
