basically, each ship costs the currency called ISK. ISK can be used to buy the monthly membership each month so you dont ever have to pay again. They total up all of the ISK lost from the ships to get the final muneys

I'll get the exact exchange rate for ISK to USD tonight.
Unless someone else has a calculator handy.

$20 = 544,813.99 ISK

eve has managed to make space combat look boring
i have no idea how they did it

[lordician]

If i look at the stats and the story, this is pretty cool.
There were quite some players involved in a unplanned big fight.
Lots of ships were lost and stuff.

However, this doesn't really make me want to play it though. ;P
I prefer more action in my space battles.

Also, isn't this supposed to go in the Games section?

[fawkes..]

Reading the story was better than watching the video, but wow

[curiosblockland6]

I've been thinking about playing EVE, seeing this is temping me even more, gaahhh.
