Good afternoon capsuleers 
There's been a lot going on in New Eden recently. Old ties are being broken, and perhaps new ones will be forged.
New Eden's political landscape is beginning to shift, and chaos is coming with it. CCP Zulu is here to very swiftly provide a few sources of information to recap what's happened so far, and to detail how you can keep up with what's going on.
More will be made apparent in future but right now, just as a teaser, check out his new Dev Blog. CCP Falcon -á || -á EVE Community Team -á || -á EVE Illuminati -á || -á Live Events Organizer

Still awesome though!
There are definite plans to host live events in the US timezone.

Will any but RPers or the folks that grief RPers have reason to be concerned about what the NPCs are up to?
Yes, on both counts.
We're starting small, but we're hoping that things will get bigger and bigger.

Niveuss Nye wrote:Short dev blog with little meat.
But, assuming these are about live events....
Are the outcomes of these events going to acually permanently affect the landscape for the average pilot?
Are the "stories" set in stone as players as merely observers and no real change can come about or can the players shape events?
Will any but RPers or the folks that grief RPers have reason to be concerned about what the NPCs are up to?
So without giving away any specifics and just to reiterate what Falcon said; these events and this story is about changing the world. That's a two way relationship as the world impacts the story and the story impacts the world. Someone further up the comments actually linked to a nice little hint dropped by our CMO in an interview recently :) |

For reference, the four characters at the top of the Dev Blog are not any form of new/mixed races, they are the four heads of State from left to right :
Tibus Heth - Executor of the Caldari State Maleatu Shakor - Sanmatar of the Minmatar Republic Jacus Roden - President of the Gallente Federation Jamyl Sarum - Empress of the Amarr Empire

mkint wrote:more dust marketing schill? Who cares? If the whole point of live events is to sell copies of dust, then not only are they safe to ignore, they are better off ignored. Still, eve lore is, always has been, and likely always will be completely divoreced from the experience of eve. It's that meaningless prattle you click through as quickly as possible so you can get to your mission.
You couldn't be more incorrect, given the fact that DUST is free to play. There's no need to sell it.
As for the purpose of live events? They're there to help bring New Eden and its backstory to life. While we accept there's some people in game who aren't interested in backstory at all and just want to blow stuff up, in the same respect we'd like to cater to those who actually want to be able to immerse themselves in the game world's history and discover why things are the way they are in game.
We make spaceships for people to fly. We make mission related content for those who want to PVE. We make tools to drive conflict for those who want to destroy and tools that encourage people to build and explore for those who want to manufacture and research. Live events are another facet of EVE, designed for those who want to involved themselves with ongoing storyline.
