Yea there is big group of polish players who don't understand english very well. But polish version wouldn't help them much. They still need english to comunicate with other players.

I would not agree with that. Most players always first will be looking for his contrymen. This is why most corps/Alliance in EvE are french-only, russian-only, or polish-only. In our corp we have people (polish) who use greman version of this game because they dont understand english.
I think that making polish version of EvE would be great to community in Poland, and many new players will start this adveture.

Hello everyone :)
I am very pleased to see so many constructive replies already. Keep them coming O0
I was already familiar with empik and many players seem to point so i tried to contact them twice so far but got no response. I might give them a call soon if they dont reply on my e mails.
Regarding the CD Action mag i am happy to announce that there will be an ad about EVE in the April issue ;) Also they will be doing a review of EVE-Online soon. Something to look forward to.
I should also mention that we have a deal with gry-online to run some banners in april :) This is all part of our test marketing campaign. If it goes well we will devote more time and resources to Poland. It is still too soon to speak about localization of EVE into polish, but if player base increases significantly, next step will be GM´s from Poland.
And speaking of GM´s, Vulor, i am not a GM :P
Regarding the sale of time codes on eve-centrala, that is something i already had in mind, but i need to discuss it with people who are responsible for it here in CCP and Xarthias too.
Thats all from me on this rainy Tuesday morning :)
Best Regards
The Orbis

First of all welcome you on this site ! For sure it is the best source of information for all Polish new players and BTW the oldest one.
I would like to split my post on 3 separated parts:
1. EVE, launguage and new player base
2. Advertisment
3. All "other stuff" and old player base.
Ad.1.
There is a lot of players which do not know english, but know other lanaguages (I myself know at least 3 using: French and German). It would be much simpler for youngers to gain access to the EVE. Other thing is fact that our education require from all of us to learn other foreign language (the most popular... English), but level is not very impresive.
We discussed this subject several times in the past according to the EVE in Polish. As far as I remeber the agreement was that not everthing should be translated (i.e. names shouldn't). For sure there would be a lot of pleasure to find native information about history and short stories from website. I think that mission description would be welcomed too. All together (UI, stories and mission description) could make EVE more attractive for younder and older players (we found some day in the past that most of us are in age between 28 and 35).
Ad.2.
There should be e-advertisment and tradictional one. For e-ad I would recommend the most popular portals (mentioned before and I will add www.onet.pl) and for sure those for players (I will add www.gery.pl and www.valhalla.pl not the biggest ones but for banners could be ok). There is one another which wasn't mentioned before: merlin.pl, this is a e-shop and most popular source for books in Poland via internet (it has section dedicated for games) as another source of TC and... books with stories from EVE.
Ad.3.
You should know better than me how big is player base from Poland (via payments ?). The biggest problem for new and old players is availability to get TC and pay for EVE. I hope with all those proposed sources there will be enough places to get them. It could make older players to back to EVE but I think that there is one other thing in which could make this kind of back more attractive. We have several stories made by ourselfs (most of them on: Dzienniki Pokładowe) I think it would be great to have them officially translated and put on EVE website. Next one could be mentioned "gadgets" (i.e. mugs and "other stuff"). I think that there would be a huge interest from players if they could get them from stories in Poland (i.e. Empik and others). The problem with them is in fact that shipping costs are too high. A lot of us would have to have a game box and other official materials (EON is the most demanded as far as I know).
On the end... it is great to know that Poland is attractive for CCP ! It's a pleasure to see EVE official on Eve-Centrala board.
And the last one - it would be great for all of us to have official web package provided. We trying to do our best but by providing it the work could be simplified and faster for our webmasters.
