I'm certain I've given my +1 to this thread before and I will do it again, because this is far too important for CCP to continue to ignore. Maybe they will (for once) admit to their nonsense, and do something about it instead of writing a devblog and ignoring everything we've screamed about.

Come on, CCP. People will still play just as much (maybe more) if you do this.

I agree with Akita,
that said, the Incarna concept is not what is the most demoralizing part of this patch for me, it's the presence of micro-transactions, and even more so, the plans of selling ships etc directly that was in the newsletter.

I think eve needs to spend an expansion cycle or 5 on fixing and polishing the exsiting content which would give them an even more shiny base to add their new content. I remember a time before the devs complained about how many lines of code they had to change to make something work in their new dev blogs.

Edited by: Linoa Hiroshi on 01/07/2011 17:40:50 I support, of course. And CCP must understand the quality is the most important thing for us. More :"free to play" methods, aurum and shiny stupidities are dangerous for the spirit of the game. We want a game with a strong and nice back story, a world complex and interesting. I don't care about facilities, agent without quality and differencies, Incursions randomized... I don't pay each month for a monocle, publicities and pants whitch cost more than two month of gaming...
(Sorry for my english : I hope a french traduction of the client, but no matter about that.)

I'd like a client that works, not something shiny that I can't play the game on.

Originally by: Akita T Save your money that you spend on advertising, word of mouth got you your userbase, word of mouth WILL KEEP getting you a larger userbase.
When you think about what you wrote for a moment you will come to realize that it has to be incorrect. Unless current users miraculously expand their circle of people they know current users simply don't have anyone else to tell about the game anymore. It has already been done and the word of mouth resource is largely exhausted.
Totally new players don't stick around because frankly the game sucks for them in part due to mechanics in part due to the "community".
Shiny new stuff attracts new customers who were previously outside of the area of influence of existing customers. It is inevitable that in order to maintain growth EVE has to move further from the niche and close to mainstream because mainstream is where the money is. It doesn't matter if they lose your $15/mo if they pick up $150 mainstream dollars a month instead. That should really be obvious. |

Edited by: Akita T on 15/07/2011 04:11:30 You think ? Let's see...
PEOPLE ONLINE Source : http://eve-offline.net/?server=tranquility http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/1649/eveonlineuserstrends.png
|___________ Graph below ends about here.
Displayed data : from 16th of March 2006 (more than 5 years ago) to 2011.07.04 (not quite 2 weeks ago). Rough trend hand-penciled in orange.
ACTIVE SUBSCRIPTIONS SOURCE : QEN Q4/2010 http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/5908/evesubcount.png
_______________||================================================== First graph goes about in here then passes over. As you can see, there is an extremely high degree of correlation between average daily online population and number of active subscriptions.
This is a graph merge and align attempt of the above two graphs. Note that the QEN line is a 30-day moving average, while the eve-offline graph is actual online count, so there is a noticeable delay between them, and some extra averaging. http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/9757/evesubsvsonlinemerged.png
An interesting thing that becomes obvious from the above merger is that people used to spend slightly longer time online on average for most of the time before the summer of 2009 (short while after release of Apocrypha), with a brief drop between spring and autumn 2008 before then (between the release of the new Trinity graphics engine and the release of Quantum Rise, all around Empyrean Age). Going by that graph, Quantum Rise has actually been the most (financially) successful EVE-Online expansion !
Another interesting thing is that those that do contribute to the early "spikes" of online counts near expansions are not mostly new players, but rather the majority being older subscribers that just stay online longer OR maybe trial accounts that do not turn into subscribers.
Take that, "shiny new sells, old polish doesn't" !!!

Not supported.
I love Incarna; and I love to see more of it, soon. And fixing old stuff first? Sorry to say, but nothing I do is broken, so I'm good. Maybe there's some Sovereignty sh*t going on in 0.0; but, frankly, I don't care about that. Those Alliances are mostly botting RMT-ers to begin with; so, far as I'm concerned, none of CCP's extra time should be spent on them anyway.

Funny how this topic becomes more relevant with each patch..
I really wish CCP employees would take your initial post, get over their ADHD, read it very carefully and then put it into practice.

Supporting OP.
That this hasn't been addressed in so long is disgraceful. Even Blizzard, which receives so much hate for forcing their methods onto players, at least puts out finished products. They have stayed successful for 8 years while the rushed, market researched clones die 6 months after they release. Copy the plan, not the content. Do it right.
