Originally by: 111kartel111 Edited by: 111kartel111 on 11/12/2010 13:41:50 Thank you CCP for a wounderful christmas present and I wish everyone there and everyone on these forums a merry christmas and a happy new year.
PS: I would remind everyone that its not the value of the gift thats important its the thought that has the real meaning.
There is a difference between a gift that is useful and another that is either a re-gift, refine fodder, or storage never to see space... CCP has created a niche ship that will be useless to 99% of the people in this game.

Another useless ship, at least snowball caused a lot of fun, this is like opening your presents on xmas and seeing a bunch of clothes...

Well done CCP, a massive FAIL! again, ffs!
Nice tease too, lets have a "create a starship contest"! Announce a winner, AND NOT USE WHEN IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AWESOME TO DO SO!
When will you actually give us a decent gift, do you guys really think about this or just leave it to one person who doesn't even play EvE?
KEEP IT!!!

Oh for the love of Pete!!!!
Do you guys really think CCP is going to give every subscriber a ship that has stats that can meaningfully effect game play? This is just a little trinket to introduce an aspect of Incursion,(as the Primae was to PI) and at the same time give us a collectible gift.
Stop whining and be appreciative of the good material they produce, I am sure we will see a further incarnation of the Echelon in the coming months.
Merry X-mas
p.s. I hear WoW gives out little bears that follow you around, on special occasions...

The ship is doing nothing to affect anything in Incursion, it brings nothing to the game at all. All it will be is a noob ship that will make the noobs feel all powerful till they realize they will loose it the first time they undock and bring it into low or nul sec.
They should make a ship that not everyone can fly out of the box with a one skill training to sit in it.
Give one of the new ships to the people, make it that they will receive one of the new ships depending on their race. Mim will receive the mim ship, gal will receive one of their own, etc... noobs will have something to work towards, those older characters will be able to use them, and choose to keep it or not.
Now that would be a Christmas present worth having. Not the ship they are offering.

I checked out the vid shot of the ship. It looks cool. It does kinda remind me of a frog with one broken leg though, if u see from a good angle :D [url=http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1390541][/url] |

If I may be so bold, while I can appreciate the idea behind the Echelon, and the Zephyr, for that matter, I find these rather, um, useless when they're just collector's items, and can't be built. You lose your shiny ship, you're done for, permanently.
So, personally, I rather welcome ships like the Noctis: ships that are buildable, and replacable. --

I've briefly come onto the forums recently and seen that no matter what conversation starts everybody just *****es about the game all the f***ing time. "we want gifts", "not that gift, thats useless", "theres bots everywhere, get rid of bots", "you're not doing enough to get rid of bots", "CCP want bots cos it makes them money", etc.
I just wish you all wouldn't be such an ungrateful bunch of ****s 24/7. You pay for the game 'as is'. Anything that is added through expansions, etc is bonus. If you don't like the game, stop paying for it. The reason you all criticise every single move this game makes and talk nonsense about it 'dying' all the time is because it isn't dying at all. Games that are actually dying have communities that scream about how amazing the game is and what can we do to save it.
Stop acting like a bunch of spoilt brats and start appreciating an effort that didn't have to be made at all.

so let me get this straight. CCP paid an employee or a team of employee so "create" or "design" (I call this puking if you ask me) a ship which will hang inside a hangar all it's life ?
Seriously, most hacking sites will have NPC's and if that's the case, that little frig won't be able to defend itself. Why in the hell would I use it...or undock it as a matter a fact ?
CCP, make it a combat frig at least which has the potential to defend itself against NPC cruisers at least. That way this frig could be used in hacking sites in high-sec...at the very least. If you ask me, make it a cruiser size and make sure it can defend itself against 1 battleship and a couple of battlecruisers.
Remember, your talking about Sansha and Concord here, it's not idiot faction. On 1 side they got the ability to anal you and on the other side, you got the ****ed off race (high electronic and superior technology) and yet.... you give us this..tiny frig which will be killed in 1 shot ?
go back to the drawing board please.
ps: it's so useless I want to gank it so hard in high-sec

Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.

The point a lot of people here are trying to make is it's not a free ship, it took resources to design and implement, resources of dev time that could have been put to use getting stuff fixed in the game or worked on towards the incursion expansion. All these "free" items and "vanity" items we'll be getting in incarna are paid for using our monthly subscription fees. |

I understand what you're saying but you're wrong. The items you have NOW are paid for using your monthly subscription. The items you 'will' be getting are bonus. Your subscription is that you subscribe to the game 'as is'. Thats all you're entitled to. If you get bored of 'as is' you can quit but CCP don't owe you anything. This is a bonus on top of the bonus of Incarna etc.

I know nothing is owed but at the same time, all money paid in subs goes to pay their wages so whatever time is spent on bonus items has already been paid for with past subscription money. It's not like the devs come in unpaid and work on the stuff. |

ThatÆs like saying that because you pay for a service from McDonalds (those delicious burgers) and that money is used to pay their employees then we can all band together and tell them what burgers to make. How CCP spend their money is none of your business. The bonus products (including the multitude of decent free expansions) are an extra that they choose to make because it improves their business. If they choose to spend the money collected via subscriptions to their virtual world making holiday videos that they then post here as the game falls to pieces then that is their prerogative. At the end of the day, like any Christmas gift, if you donÆt like it just suck it up, put on a polite smile and say thank you. The responses to this nice gesture in this thread are a look at peoplesÆ disgusting attitudes today. ThereÆs no effort made to be civil about it and this kind of rudeness is just so unnecessary.

If they paid someone out of pocket instead of with the money they get from our monthly/yearly fees then you are right... but since we know they aren't doing that, we have a right as subscribers to *****.

O.K! I may not sound appreciative, but......its useless to a majority of players!
Question-
For Christmas would you give a blind person a beautiful painting or a best seller book with no brail? For Christmas would you give a deaf person the latest music cd? For Christmas would you give a person with no legs or feet a pair of designer shoes?
NO!!!
You wouldn't because you realise it would be ******* USELESS for them!
And if you did it would just look like your taking the ****!
Thats the point!

CCP,
Thank you very much for all of the freebies received during the past few years. It's always nice to get an unexpected gift, especially for Christmas. I like collecting 'Special' limited run items so this new ship is greatly appreciated.
Seems some of the players would have been much happier if they had received a Toy instead of a Tool they can use.
Now don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed having the Snowball Launcher fitted on a Rookie ship and having Snowball fights with friends or shooting Snowballs at other players ships while sitting at a Jump gate. I even shot some Snowballs at Concord ships. That's probably the only time players were allowed to engage Concord without any retribution or aggression from them.
I'm sure there's a lot of players as well as myself that have been waiting for a random Cold Energy Wave to pass through the Eve Universe and refreeze the old melted Snowballs as well as resupply us with some more new frozen Snowballs.
Is there a small chance of Eve getting another 'White Christmas' this year?
Anyway, I like this new direction CCP is going with the game. I look forward to seeing more new and exciting changes as well as new items being introduced into Eve in the future.
Merry Christmas to everyone,
DMC

The same way we have used the other niche ships... as something we store in our hangers and never to be seen by daylight again.

just curious as to if it has been released yet, or still too early in the day.

If you went up to the average EVE player on the street and handed him a ten dollar bill, he'd spit on you and call you an idiot for not giving him a c-note.
What a bunch of ingrates.
I, for one, thank you CCP for another interesting gift this year.
