Originally by: Arrinlay CSM Investigating Faction Warfare
Please visit my topic and support it or provide simple feedback on getting CSM on this. The idea is to take FW and improve it to that it both benefits the NPE (because FW is the first thing new pilots are directed to after completion of career agents relative to PvP!) as well as introduce mechanics that veterans will enjoy.
I support this.

Originally by: Rodj Blake In addition to the other excellent suggestions in this thread, could we please have a return to the days of the militias getting orders from VIPs (like here)?
It was good for immersion (for everyone, not just the RPers) and helped to focus the war onto specific systems.
Supportedùamong many other suggestions and the general ethos of this thread.
And while you create shiny stuff for my next beauty session in CQùwhy don't you add militia uniforms that are tied to rank and glory?
I like the uniform idea - unfortunately carebears will have uber ranks without ever shooting an enemy militia member (i.e. non-NPC) due to how FW works.
This could be managed by binding it to VP/kills or something better. It would be great to have meaningful actions that produce visible tokens. But I guess, this isn't the best place to discuss this matter.

You guys would agree with that, wouldn't you?

with regard to 0.0, yes it gets built on all the time. Sadly, not with FW among other.
HOWEVER, i still love FW. I just know they can make it better -------------------------------------------------

Originally by: CCP Manifest In case ya'll missed the "ASK EVE" thread response...there's no need to bump. It'll come shortly after Soundwave returns from Russia and we can sit down together. I told you I can't quit you!
You've been patient for this long...just a week or so longer please.
That was May 13. Has it been a week yet?
(I don't think FW fits within goons' plans for the game guys, sorry 'bout that.)

A well-designed FW would be attractive to lots of pubbies, who would then leave 0.0, which in turn would increase the dominance of the Goons out there.

Hey did CCP Manifest/Soundwave ever get around to posting about FW on the devs answer your every question thread (http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1508537&page=2)? Been about two months since you guys last gave us an update that you're going to be delayed.... (hopefully too busy working on awesome new FW stuff...one can only hope ^^) Another update would be appreciated.

Not really, has been some scattered replies related to FW but none of the big questions have been answered yet.
Also the little matter of the promised blog en lieu of the fanfest fiasco .. my guess is that they can't agree on who's head to sacrifice to the mob which is what will happen when they say "no further development, working as intended"

So, another question then. Did Soundwave ever talk about FW in that EVE radio interview yesterday? -------------------------------------------------

CCP Homonoia, you've actually made some decent (ad hominems aside) efforts at communicating lately. Could you at least confirm that CCP lied about addressing (through actions, not words) customer concerns with FW and put these poor bastards out of their misery?

In the meantime I suppose we can get everyone we know to vote for FW stuff for the crowdsourcing (and maybe outpost destruction and ship balances :D )

Yes I actually spent sometime trying to count how many FW votes had be cast so far. The problem is that there is a lot of FW stuff in the list everyone should look to vote for the same one or all of them so we can get the most points behind them. I voted for 41 as it seemed like the best option to cover FW as a whole, 44 is good too. So go with 41 or 44 or both I'd say.

Won't matter. We have had hundreds/thousands of people vote for FW related issues since the crowd-sourcing began to no avail. Previous two CSM have been pretty vocal on it as well and have submitted loads of concerns over the years (reason for the high number of topics on list).
There is no easy fix so it involves :effort:, which unfortunately means that work won't begin until after pigs takes to the skies and the denizens of Hell are frolicking in the snow.

They don't care about fw anymore, there are so many FW stuff in this vote so they won't have to care about fw in the future either. Move on.

Originally by: CCP Manifest I've talked it over with a few people, including the event scheduler and a couple people from design. There was basically a terrible, inexcusable miscommunication where the session had loosely been decided upon beforehand as a topic, but nobody had properly affirmed their attendance on the dev side.
In the madness leading up to and during Fanfest something is bound to go wrong. Regrettably, CCP's attendance at the FW session was one of the few things that did. So, I'm talking to some of the people that could possibly have been at a FW session to figure out how to make it up to the people who went to the session but found it unmanned. More on this hopefully in a couple days time at the latest.
I'm also waiting to hear back from CCP Gilsev, the CCPer who did attend the session (as mentioned above), but who works on the content team and had nothing to do with FW other than having general knowledge about it. He has been at a team offsite in Iceland ever since Fanfest, so hope to hear from him tomorrow. I want to get his notes and thoughts to at least be able to pick up the conversation had there on these boards.
CCP Krisnitori, one of the main organizers of Fanfest, expressed extreme regret to me and by proxy to you guys, for not properly handling this session before Fanfest. She did a fantastic job with everything else as far as I can see, but she admits a definite fail in this area.
Again, sorry from CCP. We know what a blue ball it is to travel to Fanfest to speak about something you really care about in EVE and then to be hit with a brick wall. Hopefully some generative discussion was had about FW that can continue here apart from the justified indignation.
I bet no ones missed to drink a beer or something tho

I did FW for several months over a year ago, hoping to get in on some fun and cheap PvP. The fleets ended up being blob-fests or station games, so I resorted to chasing mission runners, which turned out to be more trouble than it was worth with them all flying stealth bombers or cloaky tengus. So I ended up just running missions, cashing in some 10m LP at the end.
From my experience, there was little incentive for small scale PVP (which is how it was pushed at the beginning), some of this is down to the players and some (not all) of the FW corps seemingly bringing a 0.0 mentality to it - bigger blobs - until no-one fights at all, or just ran away all the time. You did occassionaly get some large or interesting fights, but that was the exception. There are so many smack-talkers who are actually just risk-averse it is incredible (more than I thought tbh).
The neglect by CCP, and the feeling that they never got the mechanics right, reinforces the risk-averse nature of many players. Free faction frigate replacement as long as you have been in FW for more than a week, or achieved a certain rank would be good, and possibly encourage more risk & small fights. Maybe make the frigate given in this way unsellable/non-reprocessable on the market/contracts.
Obviously, there are many other issues as many have pointed out too.

I wish that CCP would just come out and admit that they have no intention of fixing FW.

That's unfortunate, because I did FW when it first came out, and at least my experiences were the opposite of yours. Fun small gang frigate/cruiser fights, with the rare BC/BS if people had holes in their pockets. I quit EVE a couple years ago, before you did FW, so I'm saddened that one of the main reasons I'm coming back has been warped and twisted into something a former shade of itself. I became hopeful when I started reading this thread, seeing all the promises made, until I noticed those post dates. No word since May, especially after screwing up the fanfest panel? Wow, way to really drop the ball there CCP. |

The first 6-12 months were pure awesome. It was brand new (thus exciting) and CCP had people working on tweaks, events and bug-squashing. Then the Next Big ThingÖ came along and all resources were diverted elsewhere, went so far as to make bug-squashing part of 'normal' rotation ..
FW is a great concept but with lousy implementation .. like a steam engine made of tin, biggest damn thing ever made but falls apart when actually put to use |
