It's a busy time over here at CCP while we switch to the new "many releases per year" development cadence, of which Kronos is the first.
I just wanted to pause my dev day inbetween drafts of media alerts and social media postings to jump in here and highlight a few reasons why, as a player, I'm excited for Kronos tomorrow. There are plenty to choose from which I am awaiting, these are the ones I'm super excited about.
Mordu's Legion ships. I'll most likely be investing in a Orthrus for PvP once the prices die down (the warp transition animation is awesome), but I have to say the Barghest is one of those ships that made the SciFi enthusiast in me say OHDAMN when I first saw it.
Solar Flares. I use CTRL F9 a lot to grab random screenshots while warping around New Eden, so this little change brings much joy to my starfaring heart.
Little Things. Specifically the color-coded fleet broadcasts. As an occasional Logi pilot, yes please.
Ok ok one more. Drone changes. May Caldari and Amarr drones see the light of day! ======== o7 CCP Manifest | Public Relations and Social Media | @ccp_manifest |

We'll find out soon.
MMOindustry mega-expert CCP Loktofeit shot me a note saying "These threads are way too transparent. If ours doesnGÇÖt backfire, it will be the first. It also means our players are far stupider than your average [[REDACTED]] forumite." I took his words to heart so, in the interest of fullest transparency, a bit of explanation.
I started this thread because I was genuinely excited for Kronos as an EVE player--having been training some characters towards it for weeks. I did encourage devs (not encourage like "you might want to do this or I'll break your legs" mind you) to post in here if they felt moved to, but it certainly wasn't mandatory or any thing other than a simple email saying it might be cool to show some love to yourselves or others. Glad some of them shared in my excitement.
I think the world can use with a bit more positivity at the end of the day, both internally when everyone is hard at work getting ready to ship stuff and externally when new stuff is coming for people to play with. However, too much positivity does become disingenuous I agree, which is why we're not doing a full social media blitz, series of video interviews etc with "dev excitement" as the theme.
The features, at the end of the day, speak for themselves. Here's hoping I don't have to do any post-patch damage control ======== o7 CCP Manifest | Public Relations and Social Media | @ccp_manifest |

It should have been mandatory to never do this ever
EDIT: as I believe Kane said below this; don't fap in public about how "awesome" and "exciting" your product is if you cant be bothered answering genuine questions and queries
I refuse to curb external exultation of personal interests, EVE being one of them. Life is too short not to geek out over geek stuff.
Although it is kind of ironic when I am the person who does edit out mentions of "awesome" and "excited" from devblogs on a regular basis. Maybe I should look into my apparent inconsistent schizophrenia, so your EDIT is well taken.
