Thanks for being brave enough to step up.
Yes, mostly you have it right however the primary mood is fear. Fear that micro-tranactions having an impact on the game other than vanity are in the works.
Many don't want to see the game take that direction and fear it will ultimately ruin the game.

The problem isn't the game anymore.
It is their smug, deceptive, arrogant, dismissive attitude.
He actually acts and thinks like HE INVENTED MICROTRANSACTIONS. (and changing / saving the world)
That is how WACKO he is

Originally by: Corrak I can tell you that this is one of the moments where we look at what CCP is doing and give them less of what they want $$$
Actually...
Currently we are seeing _very predictable feedback_ on what CCP are doing. Having the perspective of having done this for a day now, I can tell you that this is one of the moments where we look at what CCP does and less of what they say. Innovation takes time to set in and the predictable reaction is always to resist change.

Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:16:54 -0400 To: [email protected] Subject: ccp ceo global msg sent today From: [email protected] Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=.UTF-8. Message-Id: <[email protected]>
sent by hilmar to ccp global list-
(strt)
We live in interesting times; in fact CCP is the kind of company that if things get repetitive we instinctively crank it up a notch. That, we certainly have done this week. First of we have Incarna, an amazing technological and artistic achievement. A vision from years ago realized to a point that no one could have imaged but a few months ago. It rolls out without a hitch, is in some cases faster than what we had before, this is the pinnacle of professional achievement. For all the noise in the channel we should all stand proud, years from now this is what people will remember.
But we have done more, not only have we redefined the production quality one can apply to virtual worlds with the beautiful Incarna but we have also defined what it really means to make virtual reality more meaningful than real life when it comes to launching our new virtual goods currency, Aurum.
Naturally, we have caught the attention of the world. Only a few weeks ago we revealed more information about DUST 514 and now we have done it again by committing to our core purpose as a company by redefining assumptions. After 40 hours we have already sold 52 monocles, generating more revenue than any of the other items in the store.
This we have done after months of research by a group of highly competent professionals, soliciting input and perspective from thought leaders and experts in and around our industry. We have communicated our intention here internally in very wide circles through the Virtual Economy Summit presentation at the GSM, our Fearless newsletter, sprint reviews, email lists and multiple other channels. This should not come as a surprise to anyone.
Currently we are seeing _very predictable feedback_ on what we are doing. Having the perspective of having done this for a decade, I can tell you that this is one of the moments where we look at what our players do and less of what they say. Innovation takes time to set in and the predictable reaction is always to resist change.
We went out with a decisive strategy on pricing and we will stay the course and not flip flop around or knee jerk react to the predictable. That is not saying nothing will change, on the contrary, in fact we know that success in this space is through learning and adapting to _what is actually happening_ and new knowledge gained in addition to what we knew before and expected.
All that said, I couldnGt be prouder of what we have accomplished as a company, changing the world is hard and we are doing it as so many times before! Stay the course, we have done this many times before.

CCP IS A COMPANY! THE OBJECTIVE OF WHICH IS TO MAKE MONEY!
NO MATTER THE SITUATION NOT EVERY PERSON CAN BE MADE HAPPY!
I Like walking around in the stations as it does add another level to the game but I think it should stop close to where is it. the entire CQ idea I like.
Think about it peeps. Don't let your own self importance go to your head.

Email is offsite now - so this could get interesting.

You know...I've never seen a company so easily destroy itself. I mean, seriously, it's like an EVE Online Corp Flip in real life. Ironic in a way - the game will survive, but not ever as it was truly meant to. People will stay and keep playing, a new community will come, but the game will never reach its full potential - except as a cash cow for other games, that likely also won't reach their full potential now.

You obviously don't understand what has happened.
Everything every one of these geeks ever worked hundreds of hours for in this game.

Nuked and quickly, strange, I wonder how much over time those little eye glasses are purchasing to try and keep the new email silent? Come on CCP, get the guts to step back in. Sure we'll even talk to your fail PR manager who started this thread.

Not for those who refuse to see the truth. Not even a live broatcast would convince some of the people here, they'd just revert to 'well it is just vanity items'. It isn't because of Monocles FFS. |

This isn't about walking around in the stations, I like that too, it isn't about the CQ. I like that as well.
The Nex isn't that big an issue except for the outrageous amount of money that they are charging for the items.
THE REAL ISSUE:
Lies, coverups and deceptions by CCP.
If they lie about one thing, they will lie about other more important things.

What apology? "We're sorry that you are mad at us."
Since the Dev's are madly locking / deleting / banning player's involved in posting and reposting the email... rather than saying "aw **** guys, that crap is fake" it's HIGHLY likely it's totally verified now.

Dear CCP et-al,
I have played, and had fallen in love with your game/vision since July 2006.
Now, it's all over.
I found your game by accident and truly believed it to be the successor to David Brabens 'Elite'. A space game where you could trade, mine, pirate... whatever. Never mind the rhetoric, anyone that bothers to read this will know what I mean.
2 accounts since 2006. Not much maybe. Also 2 visits to Iceland at not a inconsiderable expense for Fanfests - 2009 and 2011.
I don't know what the overall cost to me personally has been over those years... I know what it will be now.
Nothing.
Before anyone asks, no, you cannot have my stuff. It will remain in the netherworld until such time YOU, CCP, pull your head out of your commercial backside.
I am disappointed in you, not angry. That would convey emotion. I have none. I am hurt and disappointed that you have gone against everything you promised US, your playerbase.
You promised EVE would remain free from MT and you have betrayed us.
For that I have to turn my back on you. Until you can be honest about yourselves and your intentions... and more importantly, be honest with US. We pay your wages. You are rapidly losing sight of yourselves, and more importantly, US.
- 2 accounts.
Was fun while it lasted, and you have yourselves to blame for this.
So long and thanks for all the smartbomb induced podkills.
Much respect to all those I have killed/podded/been killed by ingame. I shall miss you all.
Good luck.
Kras.

I have three accounts in eve online that I'm going to let slide into expiration until CCP fixes this debacle. I have a plex on each ready to use if CCP smartens up, if they don't I'll reactivate for an hour and give them away (one less thing for someone to pay CCP for)
CCP you have gone too far this time. Get a grip!

Originally by: CCP Pann Edited by: CCP Pann on 24/06/2011 00:50:29 Hi, everyone
Some of you who have been around for a while may remember me. I was the original community manager for EVE. These days, I oversee the PR and Community teams. While most of what I do happens behind the curtains, I am still aware of whatÆs going on front and center. I would be lying if I said that whatÆs happening now didnÆt make me sad, but IÆm not here to ask for your sympathy. To be perfectly honest, IÆm here to buy time while we try to sort things out. No sense in lying about it so I'll call a spade a spade.
ItÆs clear that many of you are <understatement alert> angry </alert>. ThereÆs a lot happening, things are changing quickly and we havenÆt been as forthcoming as you were used to in the past. IÆm willing to step out front and take a lot of heat for that since I was the one who made the decision to hold off on responding for a while to see if things cooled down once the new wore off. I was wrong to do that and I apologize. We should have said something much sooner. We should have done more to address your concerns and be forthcoming, even if we werenÆt going to be able to immediately give you all of the answers you were looking for or the answer your questions in ways that will instantly turn those frowns upside down. To be even more candid, I cannot answer all of your questions, either, but I am working with the people who can to start getting those answers for you. Again, I know weÆre doing this past the expiration date of your patience but I hope youÆll bear with me. I know that, with very few exceptions, most of you donÆt know me from Adam. I havenÆt earned your trust or respect; therefore I have no right to ask anything of you û but I am going to try, anyway. Can I please count on at least some of you to help bring the pitchforks and torches down a few notches?
Like I said, I wonÆt be able to answer all of your questions tonight, but I promise weÆll start getting some info out tomorrow. As I see it, the chief complaint is regarding the high cost of goods in the Noble Market. Second, many people are unhappy about the CaptainÆs Quarters. Third, there are some performance issues with Incarna. I would appreciate it if you would confirm my observations or tell me what IÆm missing, but I do ask that you do it in a productive way. I will remove posts without prejudice if they are counterproductive to the conversation I hope to have with you.
If youÆve read this much, thanks for staying with me. If you have something to say, IÆd like very much to hear it.
Humbly yours, ~P~
*edited to fix a "doh!" typo
With the recently leaked e-mail from your own CEO... which your own forum moderators are currently madly banning / locking and deleting off your forums... as well as the absolute lack of feedback on the CORE issue everyone has. Can we assume you were just simply lying to us all along?

This isn't just going to go away after a few days, I'll spend as long as it takes for there to be a 180 degree turn in the company or till the company itself goes bankrupt. At this point I don't care which.
