For the unfamiliar, EVE Gate is the renamed New Eden feature, which in turn is a rename of the COSMOS feature. But what is EVE Gate exactly? Well, according to CCP it will be your "gate into EVE." D'uh! EVE Gate will allow players to interact with EVE through any ordinary web browser. The feature has been designed with scalability in mind from the get-go, though initial offerings will be limited to communication and collaboration tools, including access to in-game mail and a calendar. Players will also be able to use EVE Gate to post updates for players, corporations, and alliances.
However these supply sources and rates have changed over the years as we added new sources or favourable activities but the insurance values never changed relative to the market cost of your replacement ship. This means you might end up getting more money cataclysm cdkey than is really desired to the extreme of occasionally getting more than the replacement cost of the ship itself making death meaningless and going far beyond the intention of allowing you to pick yourself up again.
The crux of the issue is the fact that the mineral values that factor into ship insurance costs are static and have not been modified since the launch of EVE time card, even though the in-game prices shift all the time. CCP Chronotis explains more below:
Ship Insurance is our mechanic by which we compensate you for death, essentially. By risking your ship in combat and giving you some compensation to allow you to get back cdkey shop in space and continue fighting whilst ensuring combat and death and the economy that springs from it, is both meaningful and relatively easy to recover from.
The core principle is you are compensated some of the ISK cost needed to replace your ship. However that payment was based on static ship values decided at the launch of Eve when we set the value of all minerals on the market. Since those cheap sc2 cdkey days we removed those caps and relied upon the scaled potential supply and demand rates of each mineral source to maintain relative value.
Beginning tomorrow, EVE players will able to access the very first public iteration of EVE time code Gate, which will be limited in features. The aim of the test is to essentially stress the hardware in order to find bottlenecks and weaknesses before the system goes live in May. |
