Mara Rinn	Posted - 2011.06.27 01:18:00 - [11491] Well, I'm sure CCP have some pretty good metrics on just how much load their sol servers can handle now :) I know if I was a dev, I'd have gone into the office over the weekend just to watch the software's performance under this load. And the forums held up pretty well too! What if this was all just carefully crafted by CCP to give their servers a trial by fire? So CSM is off to Iceland soon. Hopefully we'll get some kind of roadmap, statement of values or some such nonsense where CCP can tell us where they're going to draw the line on what constitutes "vanity items only". And who knows, perhaps there are enough folks playing EVE who enjoy World of Tanks that we'll eventually have players demanding that NeX provide blueprints for higher quality ammunition?

I do not agree that this is entirely true. I am certain that i am not the only one that actually enjoys the new CQ and the promises it brings for face to face interaction between characters. I do agree that ship spin would be cool but in the grand scheme of things that would be just as cosmetic as CQ from the players end and just add more code to the game that really isn't necessary when dealing with movements in space. I do, however agree wholeheartedly that there are some serious video performance issues that need to be addressed to get CQ and its decendents to a functional level for all players. I do not have any major performance issues until I start running multiple accounts on the same machine but not everyone has the resources to build a machine like I did. Something to be addressed. Thanks, Kelt

Carli Zandrya Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2011.06.27 01:20:00 - [11494] Just wanted to get my comments from another thread here to add to the threadgendary (love it!) Quote: (CCPZ's response is) ..2 days late and a few bucks short imo. The gag order over the past few days did more damage than the MT problem itself. I respect CCPZ's response, it shows he is human, but you know so are we. Quote: Therefore we have asked the CSM to join us in Iceland for an extraordinary meeting June 30th and July 1st to discuss the events of past week, to help us define and address the real underlying concerns, and to assist us in defining and iterating on our virtual goods strategy. The result of this meeting should be mutual agreement of how virtual goods and services will evolve in EVE. Why wasn't this done before rollout? Isn't this the tail wagging the dog?

I used the link i had before and now it is a recorded 2hr video. Did ccp gag the person streaming it? ... Cheers man! Was a blast! I would, but i cannot run eve, that stream was my one of my last lifelines to eve. I understand, life goes on, and i will still be following the threads, but i hope someone could pick it up. Thanks for foloowing it for as long as you did, It was greatly appreciated. I am sure someone will. I felt totally humbled by how many people popped their head in. I know CCP Fallout had seen it. We had several members of the CSM come by. We also had some Eve Radio DJs. All in all, I think the numbers were somewhere around 90k viewers for the 3 days. The highest peak we had was 2k viewers on Friday. Completely amazing stuff. I hope to see everyone out and about in Eve (as long as CCP doesn't screw this one up) My accounts will stay unsubbed until I hear good news from the CSM. -

I'm waiting for santa. You think CCP will give the CSM the powers to change their last 3 years of revenue planning? Sad but true, there's a real possibility it's already too late (like 2-3 years too late) and there will be nothing but a slow and painful death for the game with a very plausible sellout in the near future.

Kraundewr	Posted - 2011.06.27 01:48:00 - [11516] Originally by: Saska Samar Originally by: Kraundewr Has anyone stopped to think about the possibility that CCP is doing this on purpose? CCP is "calling a CSM" emeregency meeting to make the players happy. This is perfect. The next step is reducing prices and making apologies. This in turn will still allow them to sell things for cash, but also maintain their loyal fanbase. This is all about drama my friends, welcome to the world of "As CCP turns". If you think anything else, your fooling yourself. Selling things for cash is not an issue (in the main, however they should still be player made and cost resources). Idiots will buy clothes and ****. Selling game advantage items when subscription based should never happen. The day that occurs is the day I leave (well the day it's confirmed - maybe the reason why CCP won't say one way or the other at the moment) They will not sell things in game that will gave an unfair advantage to a player. This is still part of the hype and drama that all of you have become part of. This is pure genious in my opinion. Just like EvEbank and the many other game ploys of master CCP. This drama is generating them an amazing amount of publicity.
Lolmer Amarr Merciless Reckoning	Posted - 2011.06.27 01:48:00 - [11517] Originally by: Seleene Valerie, If you really want to understand how a lot of folks feel in a short amount of time, I suggest you read this as it sums up a lot of player feelings: Originally by: Jade Constantine Sure when you have been playing Eve as long as we have you learn to take the rough with the smooth but you do so with the general feeling that CCP developers understand and ôgetö what makes Eve great û and thatÆs the problem now. This internal newsletter (if real) shows that one of the leading developers does not ôget eveö does not care about eve, and simply sees eve as a cash cow to be milked ferociously to fund other projects. This is about keeping the golden goose of eve subscriptions (on a drip feed if necessary) while chasing and grubbing every little loose cent he can from the player base. Let me give you a couple of examples of how this can and does (and has already) impacted our enjoyment of this game: 1. The Captains Quarters û itÆs not gameplay its a display cabinet for vanity items. And the price of this display cabinet for you and I is that multi-client performance in stations is now terrible û if you have a bad graphic card itÆs a jerk fest û if you have a decent graphics card itÆs heat-fest. I can run 3-4 clients with CQÆs turned on û I can run it smoothly û but do I want to? Hell no because my Gtx 580 sounds like its melting my motherboard now! So I need to turn off the CQÆs on multiple accounts and as a result have more limited functionality on those accounts and an ugly wallpaper. No more station environment, no more clicking on my ship to open cargo hold, no more dragging ship to the hanger to board it. The delivery of the CQ vanity item display case has impacted my gameplay. CCP could have made it optional and given us the option of keeping the old hanger view and added a ôdisembark shipö option to the UI but ôoh noö to do that would have meant we werenÆt being forced to look the vanity display case that marketing insisted must be front and centre if weÆre to even think about buying these ridiculously overpriced items from the Noble store. 2. If you read the newsletter youÆll see reference to saved fitting slots û and I donÆt know about you Verone but in JF weÆve run out of saved corp ship fittings. We want CCP to up the limit but is that really going to happen while the ôbiz-devsö talk honeyed words about how to squeeze extra income from players for such ôminor upgrades.ö? How long till we pay aurum for extra corp standing slots? For wardec options? For a usable corp management screen? 3. And who develops these vanity items? Yes thats right its Eve artists and developers whose salary we pay with our subscriptions. Given the choice wouldnÆt you rather have engine trails and flashy cyno effect for all players rather than a bunch of overpriced tat in the Aur store for a fleeced few? Because that is precisely the compromise being made here -> CCP using our subs money to pay for vanity item production they want to sell back to us for greedy prices and it is something you SHOULD get mad about. So hereÆs the thing. The time to fight for the game we love is not in six months time when these concepts have bedded down and CCP is feeling bold enough to start selling Noble Faction ammo and +9 implants. The time to fight is now. Because this newsletter embodies everything that many of us feared but didnÆt want to believe CCP were becoming capable of. It is a massive betrayal of the compact we shared as players and developers of this game and indicates that CCP is preparing to leap down a very dark and deep path of self-immolation in the months to come. I donÆt want to see Eve Online die Verone. That sounds dramatic I know, but gameworlds die when the dreams and visions are extinguished and that can happen through a succession of bad ideas foisted on a community by people who really donÆt have much of a clue in business. +1 QFT
lech lizdian	Posted - 2011.06.27 01:49:00 - [11518] Originally by: Chesty Buws I occasionally have time to mission, so making enough ISK to buy PLEX and monocles is an impossibility. If pay-to-win really is the future of this game then PvP becomes very difficult unless you are rich in game, which I am not. I play the game for the PvP, so I guess the game would not be appealing any longer as I would constantly lose to richer players. There is a class society lesson in there somewhere... no one is saying yes to including golden items... i am saying that if there is going to be mt for vanity items make those items be bought as bpc's that way the finsished product will be sold on the market for isk
Kaaeliaa Amarr Ministry of War	Posted - 2011.06.27 01:49:00 - [11519] Adding another post to the threadgendary. Come on, CCP. Your time is running out. Misdirection isn't going to work. The big yellow question isn't just the elephant in the room. Even P.T. Barnum couldn't make it disappear. It's more like the blue whale in our fishtank.

That isn't exactly proof of anything though. We pitchfork welding geese have a common theme too. Hopefully CCP sees the light and we can all go back to arguing with one another and settling it in the sandbox :) None the less, curious behaviors. My faith in CCP will return SoonÖ We'll watch what you do not what you say.
