BTW one issue that seems to be greatly missed with the idea of "interation" or what is really known as "agile" SDLC is what is now just starting to be understood by the larger software companies.
Agile SDLC will lead to stale coding and eventually the shrinking of a userbase
What I am trying to explain is....
.... interation leads to less and less content. It may be good for someone who plays "Titans Online" to have a systems of changes that do not greatly effect thier powerbase or assest base. But for the rest of us it just makes the game old after a while.
Fixes are good... like say Service Packs for an OS .... but really who can honesly say they wish they still ran Windows XP |

next expansion has already been confirmed to be war-centric, and from what I've gathered there will be strong focus on vitalizing nullsec sov by shaking up power structures somehow. Nobody wants a stale status quo, most boring thing to happen in any game is to become invincible. As what comes to those supercap blobs, I see it more of a resource issue tbh - alliances have too much capital in relation to supercap expenses, ruining the original idea of titans. Obviously those with actual supercap experience might have more educated views, but imho fleets like that devaluate the spirit of titans, no matter what is means in power balance.
I see Crucible and perhaps this spring not so much as focusing on iteration, but a company working through their neglected backlog.
Still, on a personal note, I don't feel it's CCP's primary function to provide content. They should maintain the balance, and add a trinkle of new ships, items and perhaps even some new gameplay every now and then*- but the real beef of a virtual sandbox is emergent gameplay. What we do with others and to others, is the biggest reason I think we keep on playing.
EVE rewards initiative <3
* I sometimes dream of a more volatile economy. Instead of the steadily climbing expansion, it would be interesting to have recessions and depressions. These would need CCP intervention to happen, perhaps in the form of Empire borders. Different empires would have different taxes and customs fees, perhaps substitute different areas of industry and then make changes to these with the purpose of creating economic imbalances. In a pretty much uniform economy with endless, stable resources the market is not likely to ever crash.
Good points, allow me to retort
Some people do in fact want the status quo
Cruicble is the CCP equivlent of Windows 7 .... really just a large service pack of Vista
CCP's fuction IS to provide content .... untill you can make you own ships and items this will continue to be what they do (the very idea that eve is a pure sandbox is laughable ... your "sandbox" abilites are severly limited)
your last point is contridictory to a sandbox.... you do know this yes?
As a note .. THE GREATEST acheivement of CCP was the market ....this IS the best example of a "sandbox" that the game has to offer. What? you don't think the playerbase can change the market
ask Mittens :)
Oh and OOK OOK |

good question,
If you nerf titans and moon goo then you effectivly turn PL into just another merc corp. Maybe then PL will get back to what made them great.
Its about time that "the easy button" is turn the **** off. |
