My suggestion is to give support to 3rd party developers who do it out of pure enthusiasm. One type of support could be well documented and maintained API access. Those people are providing a service for you, its not the other way around.
I doubt you will see a sprawling industry based on commercial 3rd party applications. There may be a few that make it, but I think you may end up crushing the hobbyists in the process. I don't think that would be a good tradeoff. I know that bizdevs and lawyers don't understand the concept of idealism and doing things for free, but it happens all the time in the world of gaming and software.

So $99 covers what costs, exactly? The API is already there and free. (And without warranties...)
Identity verification would be a one-time thing. I can't really get what other "service costs" you mean.
Unless of course you mean the API, in which case I think at least a minimum level of support and warranties would be in order.
Look at Apple's iOS developer program. For $99/yr Apple gives you development tools and SDKs, tons of documentation and sample code (free, actually), some tech support and they'll host the downloads for your app, and so on...

Originally by: CCP Atlas So, what's going on in my feedback thre... HOLY CRAP, 9 pages of hate!   
Anyway, thank you all for your input so far. Based on your comments, I feel I should step in to clarify a few things and address some concerns.
1) The blog represents the first draft of what our bizdev department is thinking of in terms of the license agreement. We published it to get feedback from you guys. This is not the final word on the matter and we want to build this service up with you so that it's fair and empowers you to build these applications and services which better the game.
2) Regarding this clause: Q: Will services for in-game currency require a commercial license? A: Yes, if you require any sort of payment for your services you will need a commercial license.
I've spoken to Biz Dev and this is something that might be revised, possibly to exclude ISK payments. I'll let you know as soon as I know more.
3) This project is not about CCP making money. Whether we charge $100 or $50 or $10 for a commercial license won't make a big difference to our balance sheet. $99 is the lowest that we estimated that we could reasonably go and still justify the cost of the service. If this is too high for app developers, this is something that could possibly be revisited.
4) Nothing is set in stone. We're willing to reconsider anything you deem unfair about the program. Donation and ad supported ventures is a tricky thing to allow without any sort of a commercial license though and that's a legal slippery slope. Whether that license needs to be $99 per year is something we might reconsider.
Please help us by continuing to give constructive feedback into how you want this service to be since our motives are really to empower 3rd party development and not to try to squeeze money out of starving programmers.
Our Biz Dev department will give us some more answers and clarify ambiguity. Rest assured this will change to suit your needs and our aim is to make you want to develop software and services for EVE and not to throw obstacles in your way.
Why do you even think you HAVE a CSM?
Seriously, have you guys not learned your lesson yet? I'll spell it out for you in short 1-syllable words, real simple, just for you:
DOES YOUR GREAT IDEA DIRECTLY DO STUFF TO EVE PLAYERS?
RUN YOUR GREAT IDEA PAST THE CSM.
IF THEY SAY THAT THERE WILL BE RAGE THEN IT COULD BE THAT YOUR IDEA IS VERY BAD AND YOU SHOULD FIX IT.
THE CSM WILL HELP YOU FIX YOUR BAD IDEA.
THEN YOUR BAD IDEA WILL BE LESS BAD OR IT MIGHT EVEN BE GOOD WHO KNOWS?
Malcanis' Law: Whenever a mechanics change is proposed on behalf of "new players", that change is always to the overwhelming advantage of richer, older players. |

This is exactly what it is. Once a license is required, they can sue these websites out of existence
Since banning them ingame isnt doing crap, making their businesses require a license will do two things:
1. the ones who dont want the License will get sued
2. the ones who do, will have given then information to CCP.
Its a drastic step due to the legit and helpful people are getting hurt too but I hope it works out well, otherwise its gonna hurt them alot more than RMTers

Tell "Biz Dev" to get off their lazy asses and come face the fire directly. It is unreasonable for you to take the community backlash for their statements, and inefficient to have you serve as a middleman.
Edit: After reading Malcanis' reply (above), I'd like to revise my statement. Have "Biz Dev" get off their lazy asses and run their ideas past CSM. Any ideas that make it past the CSM are good candidates for a blog.
Seriously, the dev blog should *NOT* be a "this is a work in progress" -- that's why the CSM exists!

In 8 years of EvE online has CCP EVER brought out some brochure that even remotely resambles a manual?
NO.
Yet a Hungarrian guy and his team make a booklet named ISK_## and it beats the living crαp out of any other manual for games i ever laid my eyes on. (Falcon 4.0 included, and that is a feat.)
Has CCP done that?
NO.
It was done by one of our best members of EvE community. If you had this silly idea 4 years ago this man-team would never most probably had taken the effords to make it.
Really now. Charging others for having the privvilege for working For you?

Edited by: Dracnys on 15/06/2011 20:03:45 This is how I read the devblog:
Quote: CCP Atlas has some great news for 3rd party developers in his latest dev blog.
Great CCP, what's your great news? *Click on Link* A wall of text with the headline "Monetizing 3rd Party Apps". Ok I have no idea what you mean with this. Do you want to make money or do you think 3rd party developers can earn money?
Quote: tr.v. mon+e+tized, mon+e+tiz+ing, mon+e+tiz+es To establish as legal tender. To coin (money). To convert (government debt) from securities into currency that can be used to purchase goods and services. Cha-Ching.
Wow now I know what monetizing means, thanks a lot. Now, who is this guy thinking cha-ching?
Quote: Starting this summer you will be able to charge people for usage of your applications, websites and services for EVE Online.
Who would want to do that? I certainly don't want to pay for 3rd party apps. Download that new market order software? 5 Dollars. Update character in your skill-plan app? 0.50 Dollars. Now this won't happen because the people developing the software don't do it to earn money but because they like helping the community and I highly doubt that many would pay for a service or app.
Quote: Highlights
Simple process - Sign up on a webpage, get started straight away Inexpensive - $99 per year, no other fees Developer-friendly - Very few restrictions Open-ended - You can charge subscription fees, receive donations, sell your app in an app-store and more Non-commercial websites and apps will now require a (free) license
Highlights. Highlights of what? Is anything of this any good? Is there any value provided by CCP? 99 Dollars per year for what? For getting permission to charge somebody for 3rd party services? CCP was developer friendly before, we know that. But that's no highlight, that's just doing nothing. Why is it an advantage if non-commercial websites and apps require a free license?
Quote: Rules and rights but nothing new except charging for permission to charge RL money.
So where is the value that you provide? Continue searching.
Quote: Will corporation and alliance websites require a commercial license? No, (...)
At least this.
Quote: Will services for in-game currency require a commercial license?
Yes, if you require any sort of payment for your services you will need a commercial license.
Will website ads require a commercial license?
Yes, for ad-supported websites you will require a commercial license. Will donations require a commercial license?
Yes, for donation supported websites you will require a commercial license.
HOLY CRAP! Does this mean that everyone who asks for donations or puts ads on the website has to pay? For the great ability to charge RL money for their services which they won't because of the reasons mentioned above? So this does really mean that people that work their ass of to improve the game for all players are CHARGED to do so? CCP, is that you? The company that lives off a game which is mostly played because of its great community? You DO realize that this is what makes EVE, right? That the sandbox doesn't end with the game but is extended all over the internet?
Quote: Why charge for the license at all?
That's my question. Better have a good answer.
Quote: The licensing fee is there to partially cover expenses from this initiative and more importantly, we need to charge a fee so that we get proper non-spoofable information about the applicant. We have kept the fee as low as possible and hope that the $99 fee is low enough to not dissuade serious developers from participating in the program.
Why does it cost 99 Dollars to note a name? This is zero value.
Quote: I'm sure we will have plenty to talk about in the discussion thread. :-)
Yes we have.

Seriously, why do you even bother, when you know, and we know, and you know that we know you're going to push ahead with it anyway? You ignored the people who told you factional warfare needed to be fixed. You ignored the opinions of players who told you race-locking art assets such as clothing and hairstyles in Carbon was a terrible idea. You ignored four-fifths of your consumer base who don't want microtransactions.

Really? $99 a year from a handful of people? I probably make more in a month a work.
so if even 100 people (and I feel thats a stretch) do this, its 9.9k a year. yeah thats a HUGE bottomline increase. and even one thousand people its 99,000. thats maybe 2 peoples salaries? if that.
I mean its not like 400k active users paying $15 a month adds up to much (72 MILLION) but yeah, 9.9k, they are just ROLLING IN THE MONEY

IMO, CCP should be paying anyone that hosts a website or blog that practically endorses EVE because it is basically free advertising that CCP (and EVE) is getting.

I dislike the idea of dust on the ps3.I certainly didn't like the ships for cash idea, but i could of ignored it. But this? Charging people who actually improve your game more than you do it, you ****ing idiots, is ****ing stupid and while i love eve, i hope it goes down at is now. Why? So they can go down in history as the idiots who ruined a great game and forever be branded moneyhungry asshats.

This is not the final word on the matter and we want to build this service up with you so that it's fair and empowers you to build these applications and services which better the game.
Please do not take this the wrong way, or personal, that is not how it is intended.
It is not very smart to say the least, to "dump" an announcement to any userbase without having made sure that you know what reception is going to be like.
A topic as sensitive as this, which you (CCP "the company") should instinctively realise and communicate on, should never be treated as an experiment.
There is a very simple reason for this. You sell a service. Your core currencies are those of belief and trust. When you do these things, you violate those currencies and deplete their reservoirs among user group types.
It does not take a genius to see how that is bad. You sell and keep on the basis primarily of that, no matter how much shiny is added on top, this is what doing business comes down to. Period.
If you cannot guarantee that you can stimulate, motivate, or guide reception and adoption, you should never take any step which compromises those two currencies. Ever. Period.
If you sold soup in a supermarket, you could get away with that indefinately. But you are selling a service model. What you do and say, is carried along forever. The specifics will be forgotten over time, but the sentiments and memories carry on, far outside existing userbases. In these days of social networking, transient media, and distributed communities you must never forget that the word of mouth that is your instrument, which grew your product, is not by definition the same as the concept of "drama sells" or "there is no such thing as bad publicity.
Why? You said it yourselves. EVE is real. It's so real, that it is life. It is an experience. When word of mouth reaches that treshold where it overshadows your own messaging (let's be honest, even if you hired half the gaming and advertising industry you would not be able to compete with the concept of social and other networking) you have a problem. Not just for EVE, but for the integrity of your brand.
Which, I am sure you are aware of, is what the currency of your enterprise is in capital and prospects.
So really, don't do these things. Just don't.
And please do not ever again (see CCP Zinfandel) experiment like this. Regardless of whether that was intended or not, perception defines reality so intention matters a lot less than the consequences. Taking the angle of "we wanted to get feedback" is wrong here. It does not match your presentation of the devblog, period. It is also the wrong angle for damage control, or even open communications.
Besides, you have a CSM, who heard nothing of you on this, if you really sought feedback. Ok fine, this CSM is not representative for the userbases of EVE, that is a shame, but so be it. But even then you have tools at your disposal. Live devblog, surveys, do a questionaire in the development section on these forums (or rather, since they are no longer representative for the actual eve community start passing word there to reach third party developers).
Sorry guys, the roundtable at fanfest, it touched quite specifically and constructively on the very issues that were put on the table in this blog as the next "stone tablet".
Please, this is not some personal playground anymore. You have an enormous potential here. But stop getting in your own way each time.

i'll try to be calm and constructive:
- It's not fair to lump in developers who provide 'free' services and ask for donations/use ads with people who are outright charging for them. I'm cool with you guys charging $99 to some guy who is selling his skilltraining iphone app for $5. I'm not cool with people like Chribba, the dotlan guys, etc being charged because they have a donate button. It would push them to either not accept any donations (which is stupid), or force them to start charging RL cash for access to all their services (which is also stupid)
-services which are isk-only shouldn't be charged anything at all. _____________________ Look down. Back up. Where are you? You're on a forum, with the alt your alt could post like. |

First of all, let's clarify that this is not about the money for CCP. MT: Yes, This fiasco: No.
Some suggestions
1. Free development license: allows you to develop your service/website/app or deploy a non-profit version. 2. Nominal fee for ad-supported websites and services: One time $10 or $20. Developers who join will be listed on an "official" eve-hosted list of sites - give a little something back to the developer 3. "Whatever bizdev decides" fee for subscription apps/services: Honestly I don't see the point, but separating a pay-to-use app or service from the average website will inoculate CCP from some of the backlash.
Finally, please no more bull**** about how much it costs to support the service. We love to see the APIs and Static data dumps, it's why we develop services for EVE. If you don't like it shut them down.

Your Bizdev team needs to have a long talk with admin. How could you all NOT EXPECT so much backlash from such as stupid idea. Was it when main addon devs spoke out where something clicked saying "Well golly gee maybe getting virtually nonprofit support sites to pay up isn't the best thing in the world as far as relationship with our customers?"
When a part of your company is doing serious damage to another part that is when the meetings on their skill and or termination of employment needs to happen. This isn't a damn fan game it is a commercial game that requires good relationships with customers in order to survive. If they can't handle that they need to go home or get another job.
You change NOTHING with the current system and ONLY start allowing those who WANT to make nonstandard profit to do so. Virtually none will anyway.
