SOON(TM).
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've heard it all before.
Black Ops un-nerfing? Soon.
EVE COSMOS. Soon.
Upgraded planets. Soon.
Sovereignty revamp. Soon.
Ambu..
Oh you get the idea. I could go on but let's face it - why bother? A massive disappointment and a definitive kick in the teeth to the much vaunted SCRUM (Soon) method.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out then. Can I have your stuff?
I'm not leaving, so no you cant.

The time the fifth variation will be launched is dependant on the interest and pick-up of T3 ships. Would I have liked to have all five at M10? Of course? But considering the life time of assets in EVE, I want what goes in there to be polished and smooth rather than rushed so the decision was taken to focus on the three and make them awesome, which they certainly are.
Bolded/italicized/underlined the important part.
Seriously?
It is critical that T3 be amazing and spectacular upon release, for every other aspect of the expansion rests on the success of T3 being interesting enough for the player base to pursue. If it's not, then there is no point in venturing into wspace for the parts to build T3, or developing production infrastructure to produce T3 ships.
I agree 100% with Bellum on this. Let's face it the lack of the additional subsystems is a huge 'apocryphail' (sorry couldnt resist).
Without the additional subsystems the whole variety and scope of the T3 cruisers becomes significantly 'meh'.
What's stupifying is that t0rfifrans then comes back with 'we might not even do that if its not popular'.
 ?! So basically all that hype at Fan Fest was what? One gigantic marketing exercise?
This news has totally dented my enthusiasm for what promised to be perhaps the best expansion in EVE's history.
Not any more.

I'll put it in simple terms for you:
Reality happens.
Thankyou, I was having difficulty with the non simple terms. Suprising how often it happens around here though.
tbh - I wouldnt be bothered about M10 being a scaled down expansion if I had any faith that the remaining elements were enroute within a few weeks.
But everything in my experience with EVE suggests this will not be the case. T3 will remain as 3^5 subsystems.
Sorry but I just hate seeing so much potential being wasted.
