:) A statement from the SVP?
Why not? I think it would be a good idea if he were to say hi to his new customer base.

Well look at what is happening now, the Incarna flames are reigniting, that is not what you want and yes a statement can either help fan the flames or put it out. Rumour and doubt is not what you want as gamers do jump ship at the first sign of panic.
Anybody from the CSM wish to comment ? What is going through the CSM's agenda on this now? |

How are the popular Asian / Eastern games set-up in terms of gaming - free to play with micro transactions or subscriptions? I thought during the last fiasco, CCP was basing many of their decisions on following "market trends"...? |

CCP tried the asian market, how is that going on? I heard nothing of it now, no dramatic change in numbers from it.
I think it flopped. |

Welcome Sean Decker to CCP and the Eve Online world. If you read this thread you will no doubt notice some very strong opinions about your employment history. Take note of this. The player base of Eve is passionate, opinionated and despite our in game efforts to make ourselves look like knuckle dragging reprobates with low sloping foreheads, we are actually generally at the higher end of the gamer skill, intelligence, experience and age. Many of us have long memories of games long past. If you do not take note of the history of Eve Online, if you repeat the mistakes of the past, then watch us do what we the player base did before.
Consider this a welcome, not warm, not cold, but a wake up call to the world you have stepped into.
Best of luck, I think you will need it. It's all about how hot my mining lasers get. |

CCP EA's job
Quote: Sean is to be the head of product development across all of CCP's games, not just the free-to-play titles, but I wouldn't worry about EVE going free to play any time soon.
Quote: One of Sean's responsibilities as VP of product development will be to figure out what developers should work on in the next cycle based on community feedback.
CCP EA's handling of community feedback can be seen in the great Command & Conquer 4 - Tiberian Twilight, which he was responsible for, and which EVERY C&C player hated, because it abandoned EVERYTHING that was C&C.
I wonder how long it will take until the same happens to EVE... I give it about 2 years, then it will be infected with the EA cancer... Say NO to CCP-EA.

This guy and guys that worked for him ruined a lot of games that a lot of people love, and didn't listen to the players while they cried about him doing it.
Whats to make us think that he wont do the same thing here?
Like seriously, if they had gone and hired ****** people would generally be less pissed, he's the AIDS of the gaming world, and we hate him already, before he started fumbling around in our game.
There is literally nothing this guy or CCP can say to sell this guy as not a gigantic sack of ****, this is one of the worst things they could have done.

If he comes up with stupid, destructive MT proposals, CCP will be told clearly and strongly what the consequences will be. It'll then be up to CCP to decide whether they like our advice or not. As has so often been said, the CSM can't force CCP to do (or not do) anything.
If happens that way, it happens, and we say "that's a damb shame" go play something else.
Let's wait till it actually happens before running around in circles screaming and yelling and pissing our pants, eh?

Seriously? You know nothing about him but you know he's the wrong person for the job?
Some of you guys have a seriously deranged relationship to this game. The people who made EVE are the ones who hired this guy. You did not actually make EVE. You just think you did. I really don't care who CCP hires. If for some reason this game tanks, my life will be fine.
Honestly, why do so many people here think that every time CCP makes a decision, the players of EVE get to vote on it? If it's because you're so connected to the game (the nice way to put it), then maybe you need to rethink the connection. |

Please don't get me wrong
Im not from the "I hate this man, I want him gone" crowd or the "CCP Mintchip Hateclub"
I don't care who people are, I don't work for CCP's HR department, I don't get a say and I accept that
But I just don't like pointless roles that's all
Im sure he will be paid a fortune to actually do nothing
