Where sometimes people might not buy a large ticket item, they will be more inclined to buy a raffle ticket for one, in hopes of winning the said raffle. The Hypernet Relay’s goal, according to CCP, is to increase the sale of products. It is possible for anyone to buy tickets, including the seller, as a way to make sure the raffle completes. In effect, the seller loses the broker fees. If the tickets do not sell out, all tickets are refunded, but not the HyperCores. Each raffle lasts until all tickets are sold, or up to 3 days, whichever comes first. In addition, a further tax on your raffle is set to 5% of the total value you’re looking to collect. These can be purchased from the New Eden Store, or on the market from other players who themselves purchased it on the NES. Second, you need an item called a HyperCore. So how does it work?įirst, to be able to sell an item on the Hypernet, you have to have it in an NPC station. They also run the risk of losing all their ISK and ended up with nothing.
This lets players to gain access to higher-value items for a sliver of the normal price-if they win the raffle. It allows players to set their own prices for the item, how many tickets to sell and the price per ticket. It will allow EVE Online player to sell items in-game, including items that can’t be placed onto the market. But what is the Hypernet Relay? CCP answered that question in a dev blog released on Wednesday, along with the system’s arrival on Sisi. Hilmar described it as “something future forward a trading paradigm that can be used for wealth redistribution that can be used in New Eden, but also in reality”.
The update was to arrive on Singularity on November 27, and go live to TQ as of December 10. At EVE London, CCP informed us about something they called the ‘Hypernet Relay’.
