Originally by: Seriphyn Inhonores Well, CCP?
Well, I can say I wasn't there. But I will check with the people who were listed on our end. Thanks for bringing this up.

I've talked it over with a few people, including the event scheduler and a couple people from design. There was basically a terrible, inexcusable miscommunication where the session had loosely been decided upon beforehand as a topic, but nobody had properly affirmed their attendance on the dev side.
In the madness leading up to and during Fanfest something is bound to go wrong. Regrettably, CCP's attendance at the FW session was one of the few things that did. So, I'm talking to some of the people that could possibly have been at a FW session to figure out how to make it up to the people who went to the session but found it unmanned. More on this hopefully in a couple days time at the latest.
I'm also waiting to hear back from CCP Gilsev, the CCPer who did attend the session (as mentioned above), but who works on the content team and had nothing to do with FW other than having general knowledge about it. He has been at a team offsite in Iceland ever since Fanfest, so hope to hear from him tomorrow. I want to get his notes and thoughts to at least be able to pick up the conversation had there on these boards.
CCP Krisnitori, one of the main organizers of Fanfest, expressed extreme regret to me and by proxy to you guys, for not properly handling this session before Fanfest. She did a fantastic job with everything else as far as I can see, but she admits a definite fail in this area.
Again, sorry from CCP. We know what a blue ball it is to travel to Fanfest to speak about something you really care about in EVE and then to be hit with a brick wall. Hopefully some generative discussion was had about FW that can continue here apart from the justified indignation.

Originally by: Liorah The single mistake in Fanfest involved the subject that CSM and players have tried and failed to get CCP to pay attention to for years? Man that sure is a heck of a coincidence.
Yeah seriously. Not the happiest of mistakes in my book. CCP Manifest Public Relations || Iniquitous Brute |

Hola again.
I had a brief chat with CCP Zulu and brought this thread to his attention as well as the /facepalm re: Fanfest panel.
Having been an active member of the Minnie militia, a lot of things in this thread rang true with me as well. I got into it as an intro to PvP. After my workload spiked, I dropped out, but recently I ducked back into Ama/Auga/Kourm+ to get some pew pew on and the dynamic of fleets etc has changed...the same spirit just didn't seem to be there. I don't know if that's an FC thing or what, but it still seemed weird. That having been said, like every feature, it was about what I made of it. I ended up hunting down a destroyer filled with Amarr scum and got my first solo kill :) Of course, that's not to downplay or dismiss the very real concerns here, just to put in my perspective.
That aside, Zulu agreed that there needs to be more dialogue from CCP about Factional Warfare--where we've been, where we are and where we are headed. Part of the dev team is going to sit down and hammer that out in some sort of meaningful format and we'll get that to you as soon as possible.

Originally by: Marconus Orion Maybe a live dev blog where players can ask questions and stuff could be scheduled to make up for this? Make a good portion of it about faction warfare? This mistake can easily be redeemed.
Brilliant idea i would like to second this
I already brought up the idea of a live dev blog about FW as an analagous replacement for the FW session missed at Fanfest. We all agreed that in terms of content, breadth, manpower required etc, it would actually be better for everyone to get things down "on paper" first instead of via a live format--especially since most current questions about FW are pretty much the same that have persisted for months if not years. Perhaps later on we could then reserve a portion of a live dev blog about FW. CCP Manifest Public Relations || Iniquitous Brute |

Originally by: Aineko Macx For the record: Apparently also no dev went to the golden circle tour like stated. At least I didn't spot one nor did I hear from anyone who was with one.
sorry ...i have to correct you on that one .I spent most of my time talking to ccp Helgimar who is head of HR for ccp there also was another dev on our bus but i dont recall his name. So YOUR WRONG ON THIS ONE plenty of others on our bus can confirm this .
Afaik that guy works at HR but the place is ran by a French lady formerly from EA since a few months. Helgi often pops up on twitter posting about job positions.
Yep, that's right. Helgi's part of the recruiting team and we've nabbed a top notch HR person, Sophie (who is French), to head up the whole department as we've increased in size. CCP Manifest Public Relations || Iniquitous Brute |

Originally by: Hirana Yoshida My Grand Vision, posted all those moons ago.
The overall vision hasn't changed although one could add features from Incursion and include PI efficiency in rewards - maybe even let PI output increase the amount of work the enemy has to do to flip system back.
Thanks for reposting this. CCP Manifest Public Relations || Iniquitous Brute |

Thanks to everyone for chiming in here. I hope that factional warfare discussion will hop over to the new forums.
Also, thanks to DeT Resprox for the above post. Interesting stuff I need to dive into but haven't had the time to yet.
Now, back to the topic at hand.
IÆve talked it over with people in development and they are currently in the middle of another roadmapping session (these happen regularly) which includes discussions of Factional Warfare iteration amongst other development efforts, which means further information is coming in the near future. The discussion will include continued prioritization work amongst CCP devs, the CSM and the greater community before being acted on.
I just wanted to give you as much of an update as I can. Also, I'm not one who gives up easily until something is resolved, so I can safely promise that this thread will not be forgotten nor the enthusiasm of the 50 + people at the missed roundtable or the people they represent in the EVE community.

If you missed it... here's a pretty good place to ask your questions about FW.
I have not in fact forgotten about this thread (I gaveth my word!), but hopefully the above (which I knew was coming) will get some answers I can repost here for you. CCP Manifest Public Relations || Iniquitous Brute |

In case ya'll missed the "ASK EVE" thread response...there's no need to bump. It'll come shortly after Soundwave returns from Russia and we can sit down together. I told you I can't quit you!
You've been patient for this long...just a week or so longer please. CCP Manifest Public Relations || Iniquitous Brute |
