Originally by: CCP t0rfifrans We have a fixed amount of resources working on the subsystems. We decided to opt for quality rather than quantity for the March 10th release, thus scoped down to have better looking graphics and are introducing more assets later once we're finished with the graphis. Meaning SOON(TM).
How dare you give us LESS stuff that works BETTER?! 
Don't you know that this community has always opted for more non-functional stuff to be put into the g...
No wait, i must mix these people with someone else.
*waggles finger at people*
This is exactly what you usually ask!

The problem once again is "being nice" and letting people know what's coming.
Most of the people would be orgasmic about the features that are coming, but because it was speculated(a concept unknown to fans) that there was more, now suddenly Apocrypha is "bad"?

Well, EVE is "do what you want" isn't it?
This brigs more "do what you want" options to the table.
If T3 was end all ships to use, it would limit your freedom.
Now, you can keep on flying and doing what you do, and those who DO want to go to Wormspace and get the amterials and sell them etc etc, can.
I'm in the process of fitting a rokh with projectile weapons and armor tank to make it akin to the Galactica. Is it good? Probably not. Is it optimal? Hell no. Is it fun? Abso-flarning-lutely!

Originally by: MotherMoon also jones, the fact that it's 500 instead of 13,000 is a big difference.
Last i heard it was 4000, not 13.000. But, these numbers are irrelevant.
The fact is, without any info, people would rabble for the lack of info.(as they did) With info, that IS speculations when concerning features that are not done yet(there are unseen problems and things don't always go smooth), people rable if they are not 100% correct.
So, either CCP stop giving pre-info at ALL, or people understand that pre-info is an estimate.
If they had said "New player mission arc, 500 new ships to start with, Wormspace etc", what ARE coming, people would be happy.
They simply aren't happy 'cause reality hit.

Hmm, let me ask it this way;
If you had the choice, would you rather the expansion came with all the bells and whistles, or on time?
Would you be willing to give another month for the expansion to come?
IF you had to choose, would you rather have less content which is "perfected", or more content that is half-donkeyd together?

Edited by: Sheriff Jones on 26/02/2009 07:45:24 Actually a simulator and an "arena" would be JUST what EVE world would have.
Maybe not EVE GAME world, but EVE world. You know, RP side of things? The world we live in?
You seriously think that in a ruthless world like ours, there wouldn't be some form of arena combat thing, filmed for the masses?
Ofcourse "real" PVP guys will start to hate "arena" PVPers as nothing more then "pansy arena pilots", but that's a GOOD thing.
I'll add to the general topic we're having this;
What are you going to do? Take it or leave? Then do. You can't change things with this, so why waste everyones time?

Which is more important - whether a mechanic fits in with the game world, or whether it fits in with the game?

Aww, okay, I guess I'll stop trying to provide feedback on features I don't think are good ideas and are bad for the game and just quietly fall back into line. 
A: TO YOU. YOU don't feel it's a good addition. Doesn't make it a bad addition. Fits the world, works as a stepping stone to PVP, eases alot of players into that aspect of the game etc. Plenty of good in it, but since you already ARE in PVP(i assume), you don't like it.
B: No, the second part was towards the Apocrypha and what is coming no matter what. That you should just shut up about and take because there's nothing you can do.

Originally by: Doctor Penguin Edited by: Doctor Penguin on 26/02/2009 08:30:09 Wouldn't a major risk of arena fighting be the massive ISK stakes you'd need to put up to fight?
Say, 50m a fight. You win, big reward. You lose, big hit to your ISK levels.
Good point really. Or even "pink slips" style arena fighting where you could set your own "simulated ship" as the prize.
If it's done ell, it creates a whole new way of setting up events etc.
At current it's the "flip a can and fight" thing, but even that is cumbersome sometimes.

That's fair but it's hardly a stepping stone. You and I both know that there's a lot more to PVP than just the shooting. Besides the biggest problem with starting to PVP is getting over the fact that you'll lose your ship, a lot, and it'll suck. You know, the "risk" bit. Taking away the risk is... well, it's exactly what CCP did with the intro to character creation really. People found all the choices too complicated and confusing, so instead of making them more clear and meaningful, they just made all of them mean the same thing - nothing. It's the lazy way out imho.
Quote: B: No, the second part was towards the Apocrypha and what is coming no matter what. That you(people in general) should stop complaining about and take because there's nothing you can do.
I agree completely. Everything on Sisi is completely final. That's why they're asking for feedback and changing stuff every day.
A: That's speculating that there's no risk in the arena combat. Let's not go there. Your concerns are valid, but even if it was simply a "funsy time" addition, i don't see a harm. Let's leave that arena discussion to when it's more current affairs.
B: Those on SiSi do have a reporting tool i assume? Also things like "3 modificators instead of 5 'cause we don't have time", well, that just can't be helped. Ofcourse if something can have a feedback effect, those on SiSi should use the power to do so.
