ItÆs my turn now.
I'm mad with CCP, not only because NEX, the removal of my ship spinning or for burning my new ATI 5800 HD series GPU. ItÆs something more, that was growing for 2 years now. Slowly with every release I as accumulating frustration and lowering my expectations and that was making me login less and less. My decision to abandon EVE was the sum of many problems, the last ones added to the pile, were just the trigger that led me to push the unsub button.
I play to be happy, to relief my daily stress, to think in something else other than my RL problems. For 3 years Eve was that game, I invested many hours on it, I invested lots of money on it, but in the last year I wasn't getting nothing in return. The reasons I play this game have disappear. I was only hanging because of the investment I did, I was trying to save it by believing CCP would fix the game soon.
It's last actions prove me otherwise, so my decision was easy.
Looking back, everything started with Dominion. An entire expansion dedicated to 0.0 where only 20% live, bringing almost nothing to the remaining 80%. This expansion didn't fix any Sovereignty because CCP left it half done! It completely unbalance the mother ships, leading to the super blobs we see today. Finally it bring the LAG, something is still didn't fix completely today. The only thing that save that expansion from a complete flop was the new In-Game Browser and Mail, the Planets makeover, some new factions ships and the new Fleet tool.
Then it gave us Tyrannis. A big piece of nothing: PI and Eve Gate. 95% of Eve don't care about PI, 90% don't care about the Eve Gate! The only think good in that expansion was the New scorpion skin!!!
The we had Incursion. A disaster expansion, with many delays and a unique feature, new Sancha PVE dungeons. Taking in account that in 0.0 nobody does then, low sec ones are made by 30 goons and high sec ones have like 300 guys doing them around the clock -> FLOP, with no value to 99% of the players!
Also with this expansion CCP did something never seen before in the world of gamming, they ôsoldö fixes has release features! They fixed LAG -> hey feature! They Fixed PI -> hey feature! Fixed bugs or done some minor changes to remove annoying behaviour -> Feature! It even sold internal code architectural changes has a game feature! -> itÆs a joke right? (1.3 carbon inventory! - 1.6 - Carbon UI). The only thing good out of this was the removal of the learning skills and the Noctis!
Then they nerfed ratting in 0.0 and the JBs, destroying the last 2 things 0.0 had to offer players...
And now Incarna... Everybody already explain to the exhaustion what is wrong with it. NEX is too expensive, the leave ship button is not optional, It burns ATI cards to the ground....etc, etc, etc.
so that is it. my glass is full, I'm out. This is not a goodbye forever. I CCP fixes EVE, one day I might return.
Some tips to CCP:
- FIX 0.0, low sec, supers, galente, t2 ammo
- Revive dead ships like the dreads, electronic assault ships, black ops and many others
- FIX the skin of all ships like you did with the scorpion
- Find a way for small corps and alliances can live and make a difference in 0.0 without being ****d by blobs of suppers and be pets of major alliances
- Improve graphics, they are 5 years behind the industry is using today
- Improve the interfaces and windows, itÆs a game not excel!
- Differentiate live in 0.0 from empire, Empire should live from the goods coming out of 0.0 not the other way around
Start by cleaning this todo list and itÆs a start...
