Yes as in IRL dollars. It was $116K worth of ships lost last update I saw 12 hours ago. I am sure it's way more than that now as more people joined the battle.
Screw that shite. If I had one of the bigger ships I would be the biggest pussy in the EVE galaxy.
What the ships cost in real life

People take video games too damn seriously.
Go for a hike or a swim. $100k on video games? No thanks. I'd rather buy another house

I tried to get into the FPS console version of EVE but it was just too dense and I often felt like the battles were completely random with no real purpose.

lets remember thats the game that hired its own in house economist to study the game economy for inefficiencies and unbalances. they take that shite very very real.

As someone who used to play this game, let me clarify that no one actually sells these ships for real money and I'm 99% sure all the Titans (the biggest ship in the game) that got blown up were made by the Alliances in the battle. These alliances are comprised of thousands of people working together to put together fleets of these things. The dollar amount listed wasn't actually lost in this fight, but it is nice to give a sense of scale to the amount of in game currency that got blown up.
Also, keep in mind most of the people piloting these things were probably just excited to get to use them in a real fight - I'm sure several of the titans destroyed were built years ago and once your pilot is in one of these ships, they don't pilot another ship until the Titan is dead.

Its a good thing I didn't know about this game in my younger years. A full blown economy? frick yes.

This is all kinds of ghey

I spent probably almost 2-3k on WoW gold, around 5-6k on City of Heroes cash and a another 4-5k on D3 in the past 5 yrs. I'm actually throwing a low ball. I work all the time, so to have the best gear/stuff or ships in this case, its a must to purchase for staying competitive.
