Secondary is the leaked document that suggests game play items will be spawned by the company for cash. EvE's economy is brilliant, this will fuck it right up.

I agree with you on Incarna. Seriously the worst expansion they've ever put out, only the turrets and the change in the Maller model were worth anything, CQ makes everything slower and releasing it with only one fucking model was ridiculous. Fair enough release the rest of WiS when it's done, but for a named expansion they could have at least had all the captain's quarters ready to go.

With regards to the economy, if they offer ships, items or ammo that will most likely screw it up altogether, however the vast majority of posts on that threadnought are ignoring that and just varying the same old bullshit "WILL RMT GIVE IN GAME ADVANTAGE CCP!?!?!! /ragequit".

PLEX already gives in game advantage. Give me a few grand and a brand new account and I can have a character in that account sitting in a Titan within a couple of days. It's been that way for years and none of these berks have had any problem with it, yet CCP offering stuff direct is a concept penned by Satan himself.

So, yeah, Incarna is awful and microtransactions for items would bugger the economy, but anyone screaming about microtransactions giving advantage to players who'll pay extra is either seriously out of touch with EvE or a drama queen.
