We know its coming. We all know in the darkest place in our hearts EVE is going to go Pay to Win. SO lets have a little fun. How much do you think CCP would charge for each ship, now you have to remember, CCP don't understand money quite like us, so usually you have to greatly inflate your predictions.

I'll go first and start small. :)

$80 for a purple one.

We''ll lets see a Monocle is what $70 that does nothing but is shiney.

A Titan I heard cost 70billion isk last I heard from some random post I saw a long time ago, not sure now but lets just use that figure. 400mil isk per Plex for simplicity. 175 Plex at $20 a piece $3500 for a Titan at current plex cost. But this is the Aur were talking so theres a markup. So im expecting over $9000. After this will be a "designer purple" Titan.

Ohh you said Tristan, not Titan. I'm betting $300 for the designer purple color, after all it's blends in with space. Rolling Eyes

We will survive our rifters are made out of rusted old space junk for the hull and the engines are made out of old refrigerators. And on a different note I need another beer, brb gotta go to the engine room.

Considering the biggest ship IRL cost some 6 billion dollar, you can expect a similar price tag on a EVE titan.

I stand corrected I forgot to factor eve into my math. So we should up the count to over twice that because it's a "designer" ship on top of that. So lets see Bill Gates, and mabey a few other people can afford it. Laughing

The only MT items i would accept are funny hats.
Let them cost 12k AUR, but seeing a jester hat on Avatar titan would be for lols and alliances would even pay for that.
Owned by jester fleets? PL with hellcat fleet with funny hats on abbadons? Now there is the money.
In the lol department....not a crappy monocle, and not in 1000$ pants comparison.

I've made the calculation here:

The result is astonishing.

Or a skin that turns Avatar titan into a giant purple dildo.
