Maybe EVE just isn't the game for you, or maybe you'll warm to it in time if you stick with it through tough learning times, who knows?
In the same respect, we have a
forum that's dedicated to discussing player thought out features and ideas that they feel would make the game better.
With the amount of effort you put into writing a rant, you probably could of outlined some of the features you proposed very briefly in your post a lot more thoroughly on the right forum.
We value player feedback and involvement massively, hence having the CSM and a forum dedicated to helping you to help us make the game more awesome.
Why not check it out and show off some of your ideas there?
Firstly, thank you for replying to my post. Your response lacks a certain banality compared to the efforts of your co-workers and ISD forum alts. For that I am appreciative.
Secondly, my OP is a post, not a rant. I am making an attempt at genuine discussion. If I wanted to rant my OP would contain a large proportion of "*". Calling something a "rant" because it doesn't toe the party line is right up there with the current trend of CCP and their employ calling anything disagreeable "Slander" or "Rumour-Mongering". It would be laughable if is wasn't continually used as a mechanism to stifle discussion.
Thirdly, Are you suggesting I leave? I've been playing since 2007. I've done drunk hi-sec, drunk low-Sec, drunk null, drunk piracy, drunk mining, bored carebearing and terribly drunk missioner - take your pick. I'm fairly warmed to the game funnily enough.
Finally, I'd love to share some ideas as there are literally tens of thousands of players out there more experienced than myself with arguably more brain cells clanging together to come up with useful suggestions. CCP like all other half decent game developers know it's smart to ignore the scatter gun of suggestions that they always receive so I would prefer to have a discussion to see if someone could unearth a real gem.
Unfortunately, that will probably not happen as anyone suggesting a departure from the status quo for good or bad is personally attacked here.
As for the CSM they seem to be more interested in gerrymandering than the game at the moment.
Once again, thank you for your reply.
Fly safe!
