There, better? Because I am pretty sure 90% of us think like that... I certainly do. wrong mister Freezehunter 99,99 % is happy about the last patch ,done in 6 weeks stated by CCP but a lot are disappointed by the fact they can do a lot in such a short time and don,t find a way to get a few % of their workforce back to WIS (i didn,t say Incarna) And most of all they lack response on a thread like this. even maybe that 90 % you think of
it took six weeks to make all the FiS for crucible and a couple of years for all the WiS in Incarna. So, it looks like the dev resources are better spent on FiS by a factor of 2 million or so ... |

There are so many things in EVE that needs a big overhaul (FW, dscan, local, sov mechanics comes to mind). Fixing these things is what will make EVE thrive and ultimately stand the test of time - adding more half-baked features such as WiS only makes that list longer and serves to enhance the impression of EVE as a broken game ultimately killing it.
Do you really want to kill EVE? |

Jonni Favorite wrote:One could argue that it's the attitude of crybabies like you that caused, in part, some of the layoffs. I hated the Incarna release as well (it's useless in its current form) but I never unsubbed, the game goes on, evolves, but again we're now regurgitating 70+ pages of this post. Clearly there is enough passion for this inevitable progression, one way or the other, that it deserves some attention.
He's one of the "crybabies" that helped save EVE. If CCP had continued with space barbies the layoffs would have been far greater. You do realize that a couple of dussin pro WiS players is not enough to fund development of EVE - unless you all started your day logging into NeX and bought a box of monocles.

That is only about 147 million ISK and not worth the effort.
http://www.exchangerate.com/currency-converter/USD/ISK/1200000/?XR-200Plus_Converter=convert&calc_short_from_iso=239&calc_short_to_iso=108
And while we are pulling numbers out of our arse lets just se what we want WiS really means:
1) We want WiS and FiS and everything else too (including free beer and peace on earth).
2) We want to pull resources from FiS development and put them into avatars WiS.
What most people does not seem to understand is that 1) will never happen and 2) is the only reality. Now how many support putting FiS on the backburner again? |

Actually, there is a handful of them but that thread is a good read for all you WiS advocates - it shows what players really cares about in EVE.

That'll show em who the drama queens are. Thats called protest, taking a stand for something you believe in strongly enough.....seriously, you guys just come across as whiny little 12 year old girls having a little foot stomping tantrum. Maybe we can unsub and come slinkin back later after CCP has laid off some more people then let the CSM take all the credit for effecting change. That seems like the mature thing to do, rather than make a few complaints in a single forum thread which WiS haters still can't stay away from.
You know, focusing on FiS never made players to unsub and CCP never had to lay off people because of FiS. It was focusing on WiS that did that. |

The people who rioted and canceled their accounts were sending a message that if CCP continued to waste time on WiS nonsense that they weren't going to continue to pay every month for access to the game.
So it was WiS that caused the riots and not WoD , Dust, Ishukone scorpion, Aurum, golden ammo or the fearless newsletter. Never stop posting.
It was WiS since it was their intended platform for everything in the fearless newsletter. From CCPs point of view, WiS was there to market NEX - that should have been obvious for everyone by now. They don't have any gameplay developed. All they have is NEX, AUR and barbies.
Now they have come to their senses and realized that their core business is internet spaceships (duh!). Don't expect them to 1) develop a completely new concept of WIS and 2) solve all technical limitations of their current avatar engine, anytime soon.
Expect them to continue work on internet space ships, most of their customers do.

Game need new game inside it to live again.
EVE didn't have proper expansion for years now.
And you can see where that lead.
I think that WiS, if done well, is the only thing that can save EVE now.
You are so pessimistic. A good sandbox does not need much new content from the developers. Just look at the sandboxes our kids play in. They work because all the meaningful content is generated by the kids themself. The rest is just sand. EVE is not much different unless you are an incursionbear. |

Keep saying that over and over again and you will start to believe in it.
Players need fresh content, always new content.
In a sandbox PvP game all the meaningful content is generated by the players. There is always new content, every single day, unless you are an incursionbear. |

Changing the sand every now and again should be done without question, if you don't want your kid to play in filth. Im sorry but your backyard sandcastle will never compete with the massive beach sand castles you keep seeing being built in much larger boxes unless you get more sand. That spade can only dig so deep before you start hitting something that isnt sand and is not as fun to play with and running out of sand is the most horrific thing that can happen.
So you are basically saying that EVE would be a better game with 75k star systems instead of 7.5k, with 20k different ships instead of 200, with one miljon different MWDs instead of a couple.
Repeating this "more sand" meme over and over again doesn't make it more true.

With you two desiring WIS to be completely kill free and a safe haven for all, you two may push players normally not interested in that aspect of the game to ~force~ CCP to parallel the FIS aspect of the game just so they can take pot shots at those targets you two are painting on your backs...
Isn't that what they have desired all the time?? I do hope CCP is smarter than that though or they will kill EVE. |
