Hey all. To clarify this blog, its intent was to address two topics and two topics only;
1. What Fearless is and the nature of its content
2. The pricing strategy behind the NeX store
I do realize there are other concerns you have and those will be addressed, but doing it all at the same time would make the messaging tricky and muddled and not allow for a focused discussion. I understand a lot of the frustration going around but if we want to discuss then we need to do so in a constructive and focused manner.
Thanks,
Arnar
Thanks, and Zulu, while you likely were told to post on these topics and these topics only, rest assured they were the WRONG two topics, and CCP should prepare for the firestorm to rage even harder.
I was amongst many who was pretty ****ed at the community response initially, more than company's leak. CCP employees should indeed be able to say whatever the **** they want, and it should have remained private. They deserve to have an internal debate before final decisions are made and released to the community. But **** happens, and the player base has spoken loud and clear that we now primarily care about ONE issue and ONE issue only - WILL AURUM BE USED TO OBTAIN IN GAME ADVANTAGES??
CCP as a company is not dumb, the player base are not dumb. But both are belligerent. CCP has the right to sell outrageously priced pants. People lose carriers in dumb ways every single day, anyone who's played the game several months or longer has at least one profession that could obtain the 1.6 million isk for a monocle in a few days grinding if they want, no real harm there.
But we have demanded an answer on one simple question, and CCP has had plenty of time to give a simply answer to a simply question.
For many of us counter-ragers intially, who told everyone to calm down and see what CCP has to say, the honeymoon has worn off. The PR machine is in full force, the PR machine is now the 1,000lb gorilla in the room, and has failed to address the remaining primary question (now's the time to take notes CCP Fallout) -
WILL AURUM BE USED TO OBTAIN IN GAME ADVANTAGES OVER OTHER PLAYERS?
