I'm sorry .. I'm unimpressed with this response. Essentially he's said that despite years of clamoring for dev attention on this feature, he poked his head in to see what the hubbub was about. There is no clarity that the Devs understand the content of the complaints or even recognize that there's a problem. Hey he got a kill so why are you moaning?!
Patronizing to say the least. The burden is on the devs to show some good faith effort at substantively responding and communicating. Instead we get the boilerplate. We'll look into things.
The only thing the Devs agreed on is that there is a lack of communication and they're hammering out what they're gonna say. Dollars to donuts, that's a PR strategy polish the turd that is FW.
Mission Accompluished .. Bone thrown ... pathetic

Saying its bad is an opinion and you know it.
That being said of course it, along with other things could be modified to be even better, no doubt. There has been a lot of suggestions, some on this thread, about changes to make it better.
Ahem .. from page 3 ..

I know that it's just political however lets just explain the issue again in-case they missed it.
* Plex spawnning mechanic is broken.
For the first 3h after downtime it is possible to plex PvP.
This is the most dynamic form of PvP in the Eve universe.
Imbalances between gangs can be mitigated by the use of plex and many fights per night can always be found.
Soon after the mechanic breaks and no more plex spawn in target systems until the next downtime.
A public service allowance to counter your "I find pew pew .. all is right with the world." Funny that's just what the Devs said .. and its still wrong.

Karl,
You're echoing the devs, CCP Manifest who said,
Originally by: CCP Manifest
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, you're saying this to do precisely that which Manifest said he was not ... and I have to suspect that this is where your and CCP Manifest probably agree.

Of course, that's not to downplay or dismiss the very real concerns here, just to put in my perspective.
But all that aside, really, we've been waiting 2 months for even a sentence to make the following true. I expect we'll be waiting some months more.
Originally by: CCP Manifest
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.

Stop fantasizing about they think they game could be, then getting ****ed when CCP hasn't delivered their dreams.
How bout this?
"Stop fantasizing about what CCP has promised a feature to be, then getting ****ed when CCP, first, doesn't deliver on what they explicitly said they would and second,ignore player complaints to that point for months on end."
Sorry, not buying it. You can spin the complaints here any way you want but fact remains CCP dropped one of many many balls and then insulting says "we'll get back to ya."
PLEX for fanboy?

I'm not asking that FW get treated better than any other part of Eve. Only that CCP iterate on the feature as they've consistantly said they would.
If your point is that CCP always and will always lie so why complain and somehow think this wins you the argument, I've got a jumpbridge to sell you. Your snarky cynicism isn't cool, its rather pathetic.
I do make a stink when a business does me wrong, its called self-respect. I'm not expecting the company to bend to my will. But I will make sure that their failings as a company are prominently displayed on their own forums until such time as they do the smallest courtesy of addressing those failings.

Thanks for bumping this thread showing CCP's abject disregard of customer feedback.
Promise to keep it up?

Honestly I don't think it's a matter of losing faith. I think CCP has lost competence .. that or Eve has grown way beyond their ability to respond accordingly. In part, I think that is due to their ineptly piling half-completed feature atop one another for years on end. Looking at the 0.0 changes and mission agent changes, I think they're trying to cut down on the complexity for their own sake. Suppose time will tell if they have the ability to get the bull by the horns.
But I'll not dispute that they're either willfully or ineptly ignoring the problems of FW and rather hoping it quietly goes away. Missing the roundtable after people flew to Iceland was a sign of bungling ineptitude.

Color me shocked, shocked I say! that the fanboy who admittedly blows off any criticism of FW downplays the problems with the Plexing mechanic.
