Smart move.

They can see the space sims like SC are starting to eat their pie, so they need to bring in new blood as fast as possible

Free access to Eve with an Alpha clone is genius plan!

I haven't had a chance to look at it all. Received the newsletter in my email. I know I would like the concept. I enjoy playing Eve-O, just not enough to justify a monthly subscription.

Years ago there was talks or rumors of it going F2P, and there was a lot of people against the idea. This was after the huge strike. It's been a while so I might be wrong about the time line.

I was an avid subscriber and was also against it. I still don't think it would make for a good game if it was but, on occasion I wish it was free for me to play.

I wonder what this is going to do to the price of PLEX.

Anyone still play Eve, I stopped after the training part and would be willing to start up again if anyone wants to get back into it.

Eve is fundamentally broken IMO.

If you have paid subscription fees longer than the other guy, you win due to spreadsheet mechanics.

Skill? None. All that matters is who has paid more money to CCP.

Star citizen is exactly the opposite of that, 100% skill based whether you have paid the minimum $45 or a small-country's-GDP, it doesn't matter.

I got sucked back in, for two months. Now I'm kinda sputtering out. If anyone still plays form a corp (or alliance) and live out in 0.0 space Hi sec turned into a one massive clusterfuck of small corp war decking/roaming. Or try to live out in w-space.

So you got sucked back into the endless pidgin pings to defend things 24/7 huh.
Sleep deprivation doesn't sound too bad.
Because space ship pixels are serious business you know.

That's why I don't play like I used to anymore, Just on week nights and weekends if I feel like it. Which isn't often anymore.
