Wall of text of pure tears, not many replies to this thread ey?
This will be my last..

None of the improvements affect me and therefore CCP has literally created Incarna 2.0, we should all unsub in protest!

What a fine and balanced review you have given to this expansion. Everything in it is wrong, you are right about everything. So everyone go home and OP will design the game from now on.

tl;dr



Oh, and the unified inventory is awesome.

Guess I'm staying away from GD for a few weeks, til all this badrage fades.

I don't make 100 million ISK per hour in highsec, WAAAAAA, WAAAA, CCP SUCKS!!!

This is what CCP does too. Every. Friggin. Time.

Then after 2 months in seclusion, they come back a behave like the rage never happened...

You should try out WoW, bye.

9: Unified inventory
Almost every player cried on the test forums who tried it. STILL you added this feature. The only decent thing you COULD have done would have been to add a ticker at the settings: Do you want new shiny thingy? Yes/No. If yes then "you bought it, you broke it" if no then back to the old one. You added this option to the Walk In SmallSpaceAppartmentWithaBalcony thing, you know... Now where did I leave my large ammo for the gun?

7: Modules
Stuff that is not really necessary. I wonder how many Bhaalgorns will have to die to bring you this message...

Please explain.

as your the very definition of a WOW reject, its something you should be more than familiar with Knulla..

all you do is troll the forums with your alt insulting people.. maybe you were kicked out of WoW too...

No, because the rage is always ridiculous and caused by self-entitled people who can't handle changes, and most people just keep enjoying EVE.

I derped my pants

I had to write it. Otherwise it would have been unheard...

I actually read it all, was not worth my time.

OP, the bounty system has NEVER worked. Fix this and all your other points before i bother to read your work again :D

Now in STEREO! http://eve-search.com/thread/112201-1/page/1

Some things (and people) are best left that way...

@ Gul'gotha Derv'ash

CCP actually listens to the player base, Crucible is one evidence of their ability to change direction that pleases their customers. CSM also played a role in this. Ship balancing ideas are discussed and changed according to player feedback, see AFs, titans, rig changes for examples.

CCP also runs periodical surveys to gather direct player feedback.

Inventory seems to have been rushed live with some bugs and unfinished details, but this is rather typical for software releases. I'm confident they will iron the quirks out soon enough, for me personally it has already decreased the hassle and time I spend in the inventory.

Unfortunately I don't consume the amounts of tinfoil required to believe in any CSM conspiracy theories.

My main concern is that I do not see the "improvements" CCP said they have done.

They said they will listen to the player base (which they did in the Crucible expansion - no point in arguing about it). And would have only needed to continue down that road. Now I see the EVE GD full of whine threads and mine is relatively modest compared to others. And this could have been averted if some people in the development department weren't so keen on pressing a release date (or a feature change) by (and through) all means.

ps. I filled out every survey they've sent with the newsletters...

1: missiles
Looks awesome and it's a petty that my rig can't handle it properly so no 60FPS for me I guess... must be running an old PC, I know I am so last year...

You are going to love their next expansion. It's nicknamed "Win- you can please some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not please all of the people all of the time-o". It promises to be the most illustratively named expansion to date.

Kidding aside, I think everyone is open to constructive feedback, but a laundry list of complaints won't do much, unfortunately.
I'd check to see if your drivers are updated. I have an ATI card that loves to take vigorous dumps whilst I am in a hostile system.

1: missiles: Looks awesome and it's a petty that my rig can't handle it properly so no 60FPS for me I guess... must be running an old PC, I know I am so last year...

2: Graphics update: Did you run out of GOLD for the Amarr, or is that the Minmatar lobby was too strong in your midst? Right now Amarr ships look dark and darker. No golden hulls for me. Silly me, I expected something shiny. Or is it the dark grim future that you are literally painting us in advance?

3: War declaration: I haven't been in a war dec for some time now. And while I applaud the chance on the terms that fleeing a war is just ... meh, I do feel like that cost-scaling will only hurt small corps running a business.

4: Kill reports: Cool, we had that for years, it's called eve killboards. There are at least a 100-300 (thousand) of them lying around on the net, programmed by third parties FOR FREE.

5: Mercenary marketplace: Not sure it was what we really needed. (Bounty system anyone? I could give you advice on that for free!)

6: Factional Warfare: I am sure as hell no one really needed THIS change. Altering FW - good, doing so on your own terms - bad. Every player comment I have read is negative towards stations changing hands every other day.

7: Modules: Stuff that is not really necessary. I wonder how many Bhaalgorns will have to die to bring you this message...

8: Character creator: 16 new skin tones, cool... a: I have already made my decision ; b: where is WiS so that I can groove with the other players "oh you used skin shade #15... you are so cheap!" ; c: don't care because I am using station view most times.

10: Incursions: Ripard Teg has a nice blog post about your fabulous Incursion revamp. Pretty much neutered the whole incursion stuff from where I can see.

11: Effects Bar: Nice, although I really miss the option to lock up the whole bloody group by one click.

12: Opportunities: What? Where? Mining? Don't be kidding me! You did not boosted mining, you negated other incomes. That is a BIG difference! And not a feature. I know Apple tried to sell the copypaste ... again ... but you could have guessed where this will lead: a bad taste in the mouth of most people (Datecores, anyone?)

13: more UI stuff: Good, pitty it cannot add stuff properly together.

1. No issues with missile framerate despite all but one component in my PC being 3 years old.
2. Granted it's a little dark but Bronze > banana yellow any day
3. The new cost method has just shifted decshield methodologies, but it closed some other gaps nicely.
4. Nice to have it IN GAME and not need 3rd party tools to look at a kill
5. Merc marketplace and the bounty system are so different that I wonder if you know how either work
6. The rate at which systems change hands was nerfed. Do you actually read about the changes?
7. Unless everyone is wasting a mid on cap batteries all the sudden, this is a non issue
8. Some people use station and others use CQ. Some care about the avatars, some don't. Just because you don't doesn't mean it's a bad addition.
9. Choices mean more dev time to support both and slower updates to the game in general. Better to have change and continue to improve than to just do nothing with the most complained about aspect of the game (user interface) IMHO.
10. This is being revisited, most likely within the next 2 months
11. When were we ever able to do that?
12. When other incomes offer in large quantities something that is another occupation's sole product, that is abit of an issue. For mining this was resolve. For R&D this was... Well, were 1 of 2 I guess.
13. Not sure what you are referring to.

Other than the fact that I have the skin tone of a piece of charcoal, I really don't see what's wrong with inferno...
