I'm almost totally lost for words tonight..
as many of you are aware, the Japan client business went ahead tonight, forcing Japan based players to pay a third party in order to play eve.
The fact of this itself had me wondering if I would continue my subs, but CCP went and made the decision for me..
As of the moment of the change, CCP has CANCELLED all of my accounts.
I am beyond disgusted.
Well.. posting in a moment of rage is little shown to be a good idea, but nevertheless.
If the isn't overturned well.. at least you've saved me the trouble of cancelling the subs myself. |

Can someone clarify this
You pay 3 party dudes in lieu of a CCP sub, not an EvE sub + 3rd party fee.
If all thats happening is paying different company, whats the difference. |

Because that third party is NEXON, and NEXON has a horrible track record.

Depends on what heinous deal CCP has made .. if they are cancelling existing accounts, then chances are they being moved to the new "system" and using PLEX may not even be an option. Sincerely hope not or we'll have to go shoot some hapless statue again 
Eve players may be vindictive, scheming, greedy and downright evil at times but we have historically banded together when part of the community gets the shaft due to CCP. |

I doubt that CCP had any ill intention with this decision, looks more like a administrative decision than a evil plan for world domination. Still I think that if a majority of the Japanese playerbase would shift to PLEX that might actually send a signal to CCP.
Just my thoughts really.

But have you done for me lately..
Anyway, I was under the impression the alternative methodes for EVE like plex, and GTC where still very much viable. I don't really get why they would just up and cancel your accounts, even in a nice email thats pretty bad PR.

cancelling just means they stopped whatever recurring payment method account had - that doesn't affect any gametime account still has left.

Shift to the correct payment method, or an alternative.

Did anybody stop and think that perhaps this is being done because the country of Japan requires it? Could, perhaps, have something to do with the way currency is exchanged from other countries while in Japan? I seriously doubt that CCP benifits by going through a 3rd party vs taking payments directly. I am absolutely positive that CCP would prefer NOT to do things this way but are required to for one reason or another.

So for those in Japan, unless they go through this third party, can't play Eve? How does that make sense? Sounds anti-competitive to me and plain wrong. |

That only allows him to play at X fee, it doesn't solve the horrible customer treatment and administrative setup. It's poor showing if it works like the OP describes, subscription form doesn't matter.

You make a good point there. Any suggestions how to solve it for the Japanese playerbase?

Please allow me to clarify,
CCP has not cancelled any accounts. What we have done is that we have cancelled all recurring credit card billing for players in Japan, but note that your accounts and characters are of course completely intact.
There is a message in Account Management for Japan-based players which provides more information about the Japan launch, Nexon billing and special launch offers.
Note that players in Japan still have the option of buying gametime via PLEX/ISK and ETC.
P.s. I hope the OP sticks with us. EVE is still here, and will be forever

Thankfully I don't live in Japan. If I had to pay through Nexon or pay more (for timecards) because they don't like my money I just wouldn't pay.
But this isn't news, there have been multiple threads about this topic. |

Could someone let us know how much they're charging through NEXON, compared to the price you paid before, and the price in other territories?
I recall that was one of the major concerns, that NEXON was likely to charge a much higher fee. |
