If the EVE Bible specifically states that "if it looks good it is good" then how com planetary ring textures poke through the planet textures? That doesn't look good at all and it's been this way for months. Why have the light effects from suns have been poking through asteroids since before Revelations? Aesthetic reasons?

Originally by: CCP Wrangler We are working on a player guide, something more updated and maybe more detailed than the current one, but no ETA unfortunately. It will come when it's done.
This seems to be the right place to throw in a quote I recently rediscovered, and although it's not about EVE, it very well could:
Quote: In summary - nethack is documened very well. What you need to know you can either directly read, or discover within at most two years of frequent playing. All you need is brains.

Taking into account that WW will be working on the EVE IP will player actions/organisations in the online game be reflected onto the tabletop version?
(ie im reading the eve:rpg rulebook and theres a small bit of factola about the great war of new eden) --------------------------------------- Furious Angels are recruiting Carpe Pugya Pyga - Seize the Buttocks

Is it bad that, other than SoniClover's apparent moments of insanity, that the blog made absolute and total sense to me?
If any of you have played the game Halo (as more than just a plain ol' FPS or deathmatch game), you probably noticed that there is a great deal more depth to the game universe than you see from the first or second games - hence its further extension into the realm of printed media. If we're talking about a book that explains a Universe where the routes of the empires is going to go, and whats going to happen with the Jove, and where the ancient, now dead empires went, it cant come soon enough ---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|--- This isn't the signature you're looking for. |

now tell me you have another 'bible' that details how everything in the game works, or is supposed to work, and when you are going to release this to the masses
We are working on a player guide, something more updated and maybe more detailed than the current one, but no ETA unfortunately. It will come when it's done.
We also have an Evelopedia planned, no ETA there either, though it's something I personally really want so I troll people every chance I get for it to come faster.
Maybe the paper format WW introduce will make people get interest in the background. You know, for me, Eve is a game described with a foreign language. I won't bother to read novels on electronic format. If I can found the book in my local tabletop dealer, I'll buy it, like what I did for Vampire 1st ed. I don't need "more" info, I just need to discover things. you know... Eve for me is player shooting AI in space or each other. The only background I see is how Alliance X loose the war vs Alliance Y, I never took the time to search more info on a computer.
For background things I need to take my time, turn the pages, feel the paper, etc. I'm not sure it will sells well but WW have the habit of it (Tabletop edition is an hard market, I was close to some irl corp that sold in France, almost been publish, was about to... then the compagny sold :( ).
If you sell 1000 books in France you can consider that it's a great succes (Tau Ceti is 1100 lpayer, maybe we hold 1/3 of the french players but you know the digits more than I do :) ).
I don't like Amazon. I need to touch the book before buying, like all the things I've bough for tabletop. BUT the problem is in France tabletop is not popular as in US. say, there is 1 shop for 100000 inhabitants, it's pretty rare... And i'm not sure Tabletop fans are eve fans so... Amazon :( -----

Great news, glad to see CCP is addressing the really important issues.
Will there be a chapter on cheating? you know, like "How to spawn BPOs in 10 easy steps" or "How to recruit Devs and GMs in your alliance" ... that sort of things ...

ok, i might shoot myself in the foot now, but whatever...
does this blog mean that now, 3 years after launch, you finally decided to create an actual game design document?
makes on wonder exactly how you ... well, did stuff at all, before.

Edited by: SoulBlythe on 08/03/2007 22:52:06 na this isn't a design document...
I would consider this more along the lines of the Forgotten Realms Campaign Sourcebook, the Eldrich Might Sourcebooks, and similar products. It may even be a close sister to the Compendiums for the Tolken books, the Dark Tower Series, and such book series.
It would definately be a great book for the Eve Roleplayers and even the general public so long as it provides both a player guide and lorebook.
I know I would drop the cash to buy a hardback copy of this. (maybe 2 or 3 if I can get one signed by the CCP staff )

So what does this mean? That you'll be releasing some sort of large book with game mechanics, backstory and illustrations, like Warhammer 40k ?
How terribly retro, it's gonna be obsolete as soon as it's printed.

OK... who asked the underage marketing intern for advice on how to regain trust from the community ?
...and acted on his advice of:
"We need to bond, show them we're just like them, k3wl d00dz who can't type nor make any sense, but instead feel the vibe."

Now you have announced the existence of the +1000% damage implant of Titan slaying... i suggest you take a careful look at everyone who passes outside/inside your office, as one of them may just have the TII body covert ops cloak to slip by and run off a copy onto a USB key....
I can see LOTS of people interested in it, including me.
This is, as they say, 'to die for'...

How about you guys update the player guide...with all the new stuff, new players really dont have a place to turn to.
I would like an in-depth corporation management and security role guide as well (an overhaul as well, but thats another issue).

QFT
I for one am sick of reading well put together but completely out of date guides written by players. I know they mean well and I thank them for it. What is sad is that the company who owns the game thinks any sort of instructions is so unimportant that it has been religated to the land of "soon" most likely never to return. Promise all you want, but reality is not made of wishes.

Edited by: Forum Alt on 10/03/2007 08:13:39 I didn't understand that blog. I read through this thread also and I'm still not sure what he's talking about. An Eve guide? A new manual? Just some silly collection of stuff to read that really has no impact on the game?
I'm sorry but this blog does not deliver.
Specifics are your friend.

Sounds a lot like "The Halo Bible" to me. In essence, it contains everything ever happened and what will happen in the Halo -universe (if you haven't been living under a very large rock the last 7 years, you know what I'm talking about).
I can't recall though, I've heard rumours that it'll be released once every last bit of money is squeezed out of the Halo -franchise - most arrogant rumors say it'll be released after Halo 3 and the movie has come out. -------
Hmmm? Oh right right. I really goddamn hope that CCP's Eve -bible will be released in the distant future. If not, I'll come and bite your toes off. You have ten years of mercy time, starting now. -------------------
