Maybe this is a EA spy infiltrated into CCP, and will dump their SOV and run with the corporation money to hisec (murrica)? Srsly now. Once someone said, indirectly to us, that "greed is good". Maybe he got someone it to make this motto alive. |

Well, CCP is trying to get into Mobiles.... gaming :) ehm Nokia... ehm..
I still am curious as to why leave EA for CCP, was he not being promoted as fast as he liked, something smells. maybe he smelt he was getting the boot, any signs of trouble with im in EA?
Knowing WHY answers a lot of questions. |

That sounds like a typical EA tactic. Take a beloved developer, buy it out and then start pumping out garbage that pisses off the old fans and eventually destroys the company. Next step, move on and repeat the cycle. I'm all for giving people a chance... but my experiences with EA (Westwood, Pandemic, Maxis, BioWare) do not leave me feeling good about the situation. It's like no matter where I go, EA is there, following me.
If EA were to ever buy out CCP, that's it. That's the end of EVE. I don't see it happening, but I bet Mr. Decker would certainly try to bring in a little of EA's culture to CCP. We can only hope they don't listen to the bad stuff, or else we'll have to start rioting all over Empire Space and beyond. Actually, that's sounds kind of fun. |

I can actually see that, as they've done it in the past so many times. Also, isn't all major developers in all media forms (TV, Movies, Music, Gaming, etc etc...) Buying up all smaller developers to secure their future.
See Disney for a perfect reference...Also, EA games is known for doing that........oh wait I'm not entirely clear on the point of this, but I do have a sudden urge to jump in a catalyst and blow up a miner. Twitter! - @AzamiNevinyrall I'm half expecting a ban for this post. |

Repeat after me: Pandemic was already bankrupt and a failure when EA bought them. Maxis was already bankrupt and a failure when EA bought them. Neither of these companies were "victims" by any stretch of the imgination.
Most of the companies that EA "ruined" were ruined because staff walked out upon acquisition, and EA was only able to make an acquisition strategically because the companies were failing to put out financially successful titles. EA is not the devil.

Yes. The key to profit is to ruin a product before you pay a bunch of money for it... winning strategy, that. |

I was thinking about raising the question of EA buying out CCP in the future, but I thought perhaps I was just being overly sensitive... I had however, not thought about it in the way you put it.
Please CCP don't get bought out! It will only destroy your games (Look at what happened to Bioware)... stay independent please!

Right, but why would they run the product into the ground/ruin it first? If they want the company for the value of its franchises, why would they ruin the franchises before buying? Makes no sense. Don't try to back pedal off your nonsense. |

Yeah, not like they've recently demonstrated exactly the opposite is true or anything.
EA has made a ton of changes to Origin and recent offerings based on player and community feedback. Still making more mistakes than good decisions, on the whole, but saying they're not listening is just ignorant of reality.
EA deserves about 25% of the hate it gets online. The other 75% is just bandwagon, circlejerk, "Hey, look at me, I hate EA too!" huff-and-puff. It's kind of silly.

Don't try to back pedal off your nonsense. It'll be cheaper...first off, then they could rebuild the game as they see fit, more then likely change it from monthly subscription to micro transactions.
$5 Jump Clones anyone?

And yes, CCP tried to micro transaction EVE, remember Incarna?

But you just got done explaining that they're willing to throw a bunch of money at things. They don't need cheap. They have money in the bank to pay for things if they're worth it.
Quote:, then they could rebuild the game as they see fit
So instead of just starting a new product development which would be infinitely cheaper, your theory is that they are going to INFILTRATE another company with a highly-paid employee, slowly ruin the franchise so it's basically worthless, still pay a TON of money to buy a now-worthless product, all so they can rebuild it after having ruined it and lost a bunch of subscriptions and gotten a ton of bad press?
THAT'S your theory?
Haha. Come on. Seriously. Can we have a serious discussion grounded in something resembling reality? |

EA isn't flipping that employees salary, and its literally been done to death multiple times in the business world. Didn't that happen with Microsoft and MS-DOS?

Stop being a tard. EA didn't remove content from any games to sell if after as a paid for DLC. All the DLC they sold are added optionnal content not required to play the game. They are nickel and diming the people who are willing to pay for such stuff ant not the whole playerbase like all the complainers are currently making it out to be by making claims that core gameplay emcanics will require you to purchase stuff.

CCP throws crap at a wall and hopes things stick...
Fine for a Labratory type development environment but not a live product.
Remember CCP hired a much faboulous real life Economist, well, have they eaten him or something because after that apointment we stopped getting updates on the economy in Eve.
Now we just get dev blogs with charts on how wonderful new features are.
CCP cannot finish a single thing, I was hoping to see a real change with a real economist running the in game economy now its just same old stale crap.

Please no. Don't be infected by EA. Keep ex-EA people AWAY from CCP team. :( Seriously! I known EA ever since they bought Westwood Studios and they burned it to the ground! All they care is $$ and releasing sub-par/half finished game products.. Once an EA guy, is always an EA guy. All EA guys are liars! Please reconsider about this guy or anyone relating to EA! |

PLEX, was introduced to fight RMT.....it works! (To a degree)
CCP tried to mix it with micro transactions, Incarna and layoffs.
Online store essentially dropped, never expanded.
