You'd need to get a free trial for a week and then somehow make 700million isk to pay for PLEX unless I'm looking at this price graph wrong
Good luck

You do whatever you do to make ISK and once you have enough ISK you go onto the market and pay for a plex. Once the plex is purchased you click it and select add game time. Making the 700M ISK is the problem. Prices are way up and they are expensive right now. I have been doing two accounts for a about 8 months now. With good mining skills you can plex one account with about an hour of mining a day but you have to have an expensive ship and do it every day.
https://secure.eveonline.com/trial/?invc=d99bc42f-98ad-4ac9-8216-6bcc344b71e5&action=buddy is a 21 day trial, if you pay for the first month I will give you the plex I get. That will be 81 days for the price of one month. If you don't like it by then or can't make the ISK then you are only out $20. If you do choose to do it just let me know so I can give you the plex.
I will give anyone whom uses the link and pays the first month the plex.

You can, but an average player wont be able to do it anytime soon after signing in.
An average player will have to pay and level up in the first months, up to the point where you can pull enough ISK to buy a PLEX in-game and apply it towards 1 month of subscription.
A Plex is around, idk, 600-700 million ISK.
I with 2 ships, being an average player without mega setups and just ratting, can pull around 100M per hour (2 accounts), ratting in null sec.
I would say you would need at least, idk, 3-6 months to get to the point of being able to fly a good ship for ratting to the level where Plexing may be comfortable.
Of course, theres ways to speed that up. Exploration pays very well, if i remember right some sites can pay like 600 million and up, but they are high level sites that need to be done with more than 1 ship, or have a good pilot and some higher risk for solo. And depending on competition, you may take time to find them, like hours.
Theres other ISK faucets, like Incursion Sites (need to do them with a group of people, some travel risk involved) and Loyality Point grinding, which I am not familiar with.
Other ways to get rich are industrial endeavors and market gaming, if you like more the play style of a businessman.
I am pretty average and not that invested. Other people maybe can give better impressions.
And yeah, deduce from the gains the ISK you will have to spend to play the game, like replacing ships, which might get steep if your alliance goes to war.
Tl;Dr;: its possible, but may take some time.

If you get into Goons or something like that then you will be able to make ISK more quickly by going into null space and stuff like that and some of those pilots will even shower you with gifts if you find the right place. If you choose to play then finding a corp like EVE Uni, Brave Newbies or Red vs Blue will make a big difference. EVE Uni will teach you everything you need to know, Brave is having some problems right now and Red vs Blue is for PVP.
Good luck and don't forget to mail me if you choose to play. Burl en Daire

Stay away from eve cause its a mind numbing game with repetetive gameplay which makes "whack a mole" look like a challenge. |

It's a sandbox.
People who find EVE boring are those who came into it without any kind of purpose to begin with. |

I have to agree. EVE is what you make it. It is easy to get in a rut and it can be repetitive but there are lots of things to do and if you get bored doing one thing then it is fairly easy to go do something else to change up the pace. If nothing else it is fun to go sight seeing.

to buy PLEX in EVE with isk, you just have to go to the market and look for it. but its crazy expensive as of recently, i think like 600-700 mill.
there are many easy ways as ive experienced to get isk to pay for it.
when i used trial accounts many people if you did certain things or got together with certain corp of certain areas will help you get isk to buy PLEX.
i use to min and salvage and had like 300-400 mill from a few days of salvaging, but i had school so i wasnt entirely on a lot.
another way is PVP or bounty hunting but that takes too long.
basiclly if you find the right people they will help you out, but be wary of those who like to "bait" or kill new players just for fun because they know that you are weak and defenseless. but thats apart of the expeirance and fun of learning EVE.

I'm seriously voting this as the best reply I've seen all day. Couldn't agree more. The whole purpose of Eve is to NOT be like the 'theme park' games where everything you do is pre-planned and you follow that course. Eve is a sandbox, make your own destiny! |
