cmf have you ever tried to withdraw money from World of Warcraft or any other game that you put money into ?? Just checking I didnt think so give them time I was a old play and recently returned to the game and I was able to withdraw my money without any problems of course there is a fee to do this but ya know at least if your lucky enough to turn a profit in the game which im sorry its not likely since if everyone turned a profit the game would not exist then you can count yourself a lucky person to be able to have the ability to do so. Too too many people go into this game with dollar signs in there eyes expecting to be the next news article that was able to make a cool million dollars off virtual items. In reality its a game , enjoy it for a game, pay for it just like you do all the other MMOs out there and dont worry about profits, and money loss. You are spending it anyway even if its not with Mindark it will be with Sony or some other company.

My view is this how is PE any different from any other game that requires money to play. Take for example WoW you pay 15 bucks a month do they give it back to you no do they offer even a chance to give it back to you no. So what is the big deal with there is a chance that you will loose your money. I say pay your 15 bucks a month enjoy the game for what its worth and if you make a profit so be it if not who cares you would have spent the money on another game anyway and oh btw you wouldnt have had the chance to get it back.

I have played PE and Latter EU for a very long time 5 to 6 years (I lost count).
I can’t lie I made a lot of money with the service because I invested mostly in very rare items. So far I have took out 38,000 dollars (USD) and MA has deposited that into my bank account , I still have another 50,000 dollars in EU not counting skills ( Mod fap, Eon shadow set).

I have to admit the profits came mostly from other players wanting to buy my rear items, and for the masses its hard to break even let alone profit. By the way Jon and Tina where really good friends and I used to be in their society “Warrants” a very long time ago. I remember when Jon sold all his items to try to buy Treasure Island and lost the bid at the last second to Deathifer.

I can’t lie I am currently in the process of selling out my other items but I have to say that EU/ PE has been really good to me for the years I have been playing. I have invested maybe 10,000 to 15,000 dollars in the early years and have already took out 38,000 and still have 50,000 worth to sell.

and how can you make money in a game full of traders where all markup are really low and cant even payback the cost of what its requier to get stuff.

some common stuff like wool/hide/claw from monster; or oil,stone etc.
i cant think its true you can play without paying.SWEAT?? what a joke.
1k sweat for 5ped…

so even if you make 10k sweat, =50 ped. your chance to win any peds with this ammount is almost equal to zero.

and really i hope to see the day where entropia will be full of trader and
no more noob dogs to gather sweat for a ridiculous ammount of ped.
or selling stuff in low quantity for inexistant markup.

you spend all day to rob newbie money,because they have no choice.
economy is a joke.
so in my opinnion only old players with alot of stats can make money,and i have read alot about how was entropia before..maybe not all is true,but its look its was really more easy and less expensive than now to get equipement,stats ,house etc…

and all players who say its s a nice universe and with a brain you can make money. its NOT true.if you make money its only because someone else lose it.and its you and only you who screwed this game because you trying to make money only from other players, buying all with a inexistant markup and selling all weapons/tools etc with a big markup.

its how the world is…. yes but if we cant really change the world we dont need to play entropia for you.
and one day,i hope everyone stop paying for you.

yea its really a pyramidal system.

and for the end, when i have start playing, 2 global minning the first day with 0 minning skill (110 +40 peds).and ~ 2000 rifle point later +60$ ,
0 global, not even a 40 ped global… 1 time a moslik for 38 peds.

so i just wonder how many cash have pay people,
or when they have start before saying :
“you can play without paying”

try to make a new account and dont pay if you can play without pay.

What her friend did was to carry the BN flag and walk around asking people to vote.. At least thats what she was supposed to do. Instead, she carried the BN flag around, get paid for it, all the while telling people“ Don’ t vote for this flag.”

I’ve been a player of Entropia universe for over a year now, after spending a little over 2 thousand pounds over the full course of my online experience on EU, I have gained a sufficient amount of skills to be able to make money to play without depositing. Over the year I have met and spoke to serveral well accomplished and successful players eg Jon Neverdie Jacobs, he started off like most people playing the game and depositing cash to hone up skills became successful and got asked to become a spokesperson for EU for exhibitions etc. There isnt just those examples now there are hundeds of players with property making a mint from time and patience (mostly since EU began) Some even own a series of shops which they stock themselves, 1 weeks playing isn’t long enough to make any serious cash. Would you get a multimillion pound/dallar company up and running in the real world in a week? The game works on a looting system a bit like a game of chance (lottery) if you are lucky as some players are (uber players – high skilled players) can make thousands per day from Mind Ark and other Eu players All It Takes Is Patience and over time a few dollars turns into a few hundred dollars. YOU HAVE TO SPEND SOME TIME IN THE UNIVERSE BEFORE COMMENTING ABOUT IT.

Lmao reading these comments. I imagine some of you ppl thought you could just start playing and looting mobs and you were gonna make all this money.

You have to be enterprising if you wanna make money, just like real life. You have to come up with ideas or provide unique services. There are many ppl who make monthly deposits and they are sustaining the economy. You can offer to be bait for hunters and they will share thier loots with you. You can be a trader, and make money off the price fluctuations of different resources. You can take part in the many contests that take part in PE. You can join a society and they may offer to start you off with a low end gun and some ammo etc… I could list many ways to make money in this game.

People should be embracing the idea of this game because it’s about time MMORPG’s started to link thier economies to the real world. This creates a new element to gaming and will probably pave the way for some interesting ways to make money in the future.

Half of your these comments are ” wahwah I played for a week and I’m not a millionaire yet”… come on ppl are you really that ignorant?
