EVE Online Introducing Social Scoring for Players

Published on:

In a surprise announcement, CCP Games introduced a new system allowing players and devs to rate each other both in and out of the game. The “Social Credit Assessment & Tally System” or SCATS for short will help clean up the riff raff ingame and at events hosted by the game developer.

The system will go into effect next month. Players with a positive score will receive discounts on Plex, subscription prices, and other unannounced packs. Those with negative scores will have their characters muted in game and eventually given enough feedback, banned from the game and in person events and will have to “purchase” SCAT tokens to get their accounts in good standings again.

Devs will also be subject to these positive and negative scores. The devs with higher scores will have increased responsibility while devs with negative scores will be given more “free time” to play other games or work on their resumes.

CCP Games says they hope to provoke a more positive and less toxic environment by putting the power into people’s hands to create polite society amongst the players, devs, and community alike.

EVE Onion applauds CCP Games’ innovative SCAT System and hopes in the long run that people will embrace SCAT.
