I was not specifically posting about the author of the article in which I linked previously, more so pointing out the comments by some of the more avid readers of his quaint blog.
CMS is not needed. Devs and CCP should focus more on updating the game versus ''expanding'' it every few months with a ship or two and a visual update with maybe some clothes or a new door to a new box to do absolutely nothing in with your character.
Judging by posts on the forums and from what players say in general, not taking into consideration 2 year old trolls that just want to argue against your point just to show how immature they are, CCP is doing a **** poor job. Sure they ''allow'' a group of CSM to be elected each year to go on a safari to Iceland to pet CCP Employees but come on... What the hell is with Aurum, Clothes, Captain's Quarters, and so many other things they put out that just doesn't make sense when other things CLEARLY need more attention that wasting time developing new content? Don't you think people would **** bricks if they actually said... ''The next expansion is going to be nothing but updates to major mechanics of the game and things that have needed work for a long time...'' Instead of ''Inferno! Set Space On Fire With Smoke Trails From Your Missiles!''.... Fawk Me... I didn't think I could play EVE another day without smoke trails on my missiles. While my POS's are still ******** as can be, SOV is stupidity beyond description in some respects, and the UI is still sketchy as hell same as the first day I played the game as a trial account.
Would it be so bad to take a hard look at what currently exists, fix it, move on and then add new content? All I'm saying really. I think that would appease a lot of players and show new ones that they aren't going to be subject to neglect by out of touch staff.
I'm am very sure that CCP, their coders and other employees have a general direction for the game(I dare say that they have any sort of well thought out plans after seeing some of the bullshit pictures and videos of the staff working on the game(like the horribly done white board of stuff that was scatterbrained with ideas of what is up in the air, real pro guys)). I am also pretty sure they are passionate about their game since they work on it everyday with the rest of the staff and want things a certain way, but you probably should look to your customers first instead of I dunno maybe turning EVE into a clone of World of Warcraft?
Who the hell wanted to walk around inside of a station and play barbie with their character anyway? I sure as hell didn't ask for that crap. |

This.
What you're missing, OP, is that Riverini is doing that because he's fed up of having his butt kicked around in nullsec all the time and trying to save face the whole time. No one really takes him or EN24 seriously at all because it's insanely biased and un-factual. That post is more of a joke than anything.
It's not a failing on the part of CCP or the CSM, it's a butthurt player ragequitting under the pretenses of branching out. Nothing new really and not CCP's fault in the least. |

Again, pointing out the those who made comments on the article, not the writer of the article. I personally could give a **** less if riv jumped off a bridge. My view also comes from more than the comments of the readers, including people that I used to play with who got annoyed and frustrated with EVE and CCP, but not limited to either of the aforementioned.
If Riv choses to ragequit like a ***** from EVE because of how crappy his blog is or how bad he gets kicked around in null, I say LOL. I also share the same view that most of the articles are pretty biased and EN24 is pretty much a propaganda machine for the alliances the writers are members of, but as for it being un-factual, sometimes it is - But not all the time, sometimes.
Either way, I've watched people leave the game personally over some of the crap CCP has put out there or neglected to fix for so long. There are too many other games out there that just do a better job. About the only thing EVE has going for it is a large player base and it has been around for a while. That isn't going to work forever. You know they can still drive everyone off eventually? |

His problem with the POS revamp is completely unfounded, unless he has some insider news that nobody else has.
Blob warfare isn't going anywhere. There is absolutely nothing that can be done to change that, and whining about it just makes one look like a soggy carebear. Fairness is irrelevant.
And the CSM - while not having any real power to control the direction of the game - has the power to do something that is going to help keep Eve alive for many years to come: it gets people involved in the community. |

I can see some of what you're saying in this post, but I do believe CCP has the best wishes for this game at heart. They tried to update Sovereignty and take it away from the POS bashing.
I think some of the changes they made were in dire need (removing Meta 0 loot from NPCs, a concept I championed when I served on the CSM). They do listen to the players, and many of the needed changes were as a direct result of the CSM's involvement.
I think the next major change to help Eve will be ring mining, almost eradicating overnight the whole moon goo imbalance. I know it's still a ways off, but it will be welcomed when it does arrive,
Unfortunately, Blob warfare is here to stay. Try telling the US army not to bring a good chunk of their soldiers to a war - it isn't gonna happen.
TL;DR: Eve is changing, and the devs are working on it constantly. Just be patient and have hope. |

Maybe the changes should have been done a long time ago - That is the point.
I've played for two years and the game has gone stagnant in some ways. Just cause you add wormhole space or smoke trails doesn't make the game all that much better to me honestly. There are major things that need to be reworked, updated, etc.. Now things are starting to get done yes, but they need to keep their nose to the grind stone.
Clothes, Aurum, Smoke Trails, this that and the other. Really all unneeded crap. They should fix what they got and make it all work, stop keeping yourself busy with new stuff. Sure look at the future but if what you have in the game is crap and needs to be fixed, stop stacking crap on top of crap.
Go champion that in your CSM. |

And about blob warfare, that is only natural. Anyone who bitches about that needs to play a smaller game anyway. |

The POS revamp needs to happen. If you honestly don't see why POSs are in such desperate need for a fix, you've never used them before in any real capacity.
They're in such terrible shape that yes indeed it needs its own dedicated expansion to fix it. Hijinks of a highsec pirate http://cyprusblack.blogspot.com/ |

Well i dont know why so much bithcing but with the last year, with last 2 expansion CCP is doing great work. New Bcs, new modules, lot of UI improvement, FW , Wardec, lots of graphic updates.
CCP doesnt have founds like many other companies, so we need to have some patience. They already said that they are working on mining, POSs and exploring.
Last 2 expansion showed that they got it, and i have faith. |
