I would rather ccp went from two new content expansions each year to one MAJOR new content expansion with as much bug fixes as possible and one MAJOR bug fix and current content refining expansion. This gives the devs far more time to work on getting their ideas completely fleshed out and fully tested BEFORE it goes live. I mean sprints are great for getting stuff done quickly but why sprint and possibly miss stuff on the way due to going so fast when you could walk and not miss a thing? Hell as an easy example its time for the next expansion already and we STILL have the game killing lag that Dominion introduced with no solution in sight. Also refined current content can easily count as new content if it gets people to use it that normaly don't due to others telling them its crap and don't bother.

Originally by: CCP Manifest As you know, adding features players want might increase lag. Fixing "what's broke" and reducing lag means taking time off from adding features that players want. They are all the source of endless internal debate (passionate yelling debate let me tell you) and we do our best to balance them all.
If that's the case then I'm pretty sure everyone here would rather you put new content on hold and focused on fixing existing content and eliminating lag.
Heck make it a whole expansion if you want, call it Stakra.
We did that once - it was called Quantum Rise - people complained that there was no new content. And really, the people who are developing new content probably aren't the same people fixing bugs and working on lag. Thinking of new things to do and how to implement it so that it works well in-game is a different task from optimizing code and finding conflicts and such.
Sorry but I don't think you understood my quote (and specially the bolded part in it).
Fun part is I've said the exact same thing to people asking for the Dust and Incarna teams to drop what they are doing to work on fixing EVE main.
But that doesn't apply here because the team in charge of fixing lag in EVE is also in charge of implementing new content (and expansions) for EVE main. As evidenced by my quote.
Just to add fuel to the fire I would wager that fixing the lag introduced with Dominion would be a rather wanted 'feature' for all the alliance players. I mean what good is new content(sov 2.0) if you can't even play it? And now we are going to get even moar new content that may or may not add to the lag issues(or something different but still game breaking) when the old issues are still around? New shiney is nice and all but tbh we have enough content in the game at this point to keep all but the oldest players occupied for years and years to come.

Originally by: DRACO selen please fix eve before adding new content
TBH this should be ccp's primary focus. We Have Moar Than Enough Content For YEARS Of Uninterrupted Solid Gameplay For The Vast Majority Of Players. Put new content on a yearly cycle so the devs have enough time to impliment their ideas without having to 'sprint' to make an artificial deadline that noone really cares about sans the regular pushy juvenile forum whoors who don't count in the greater scheme of things.

Originally by: Pottsey Well I see Verone is making his usual constructive and helpful posts . Some things never change. Why do I even bother trying to have a civilised conversation with you.
I guess his point is that you are one of the only poasters in this thread who wants new content over fixing and expanding the current content so you can actually play it.

Originally by: Kyra Felann I hope I'm wrong and that in this last month of development before launch they whip up an amazing, deep strategy game-style experience with population mechanics like they described, and if so I'll formally apologize for doubting CCP. I just think that that's a lot to do in one month.
Call me a dreamer but I'm getting this twitch that maybe for this expansion they are not putting all the cards on the table like in previous expansions. Its very possible that the stuff that is getting tested on sisi is simply making sure the overall framework is solid and bugfree so they can install the actual content on tq during the expansion. This wouldn't be the first time they kept mum about stuff all they way up to release. Or otoh it could be all we are really getting for this version and it goes the way of faction warfare and other new content that was left to sink with only token updates. But even if all PI is going to be is moon mining lite then it will have the effect of driving down t2 prices again since the moongate scandal and that can't be a bad thing.(stfu u greedy industrialist u already have enough isk)
