There have been a few forum threads wondering about the state of Tranquility, when to expect a new patch, and just how many resources have been taken from TQ and dedicated to getting Serenity deployed. Mephysto answers these questions, gives a peek into his normal working day and even mentions one of the bugs he was working on.
Read more in the Dev Blog and enjoy.

Get the feeling being ignored?
Heh, oh I dunno, POSes still not working correctly a year after first reports, new snags regarding carrier builds, and of course the piddly stuff about the Sarum, Tetrimon, emperor and president thingie.
Nope, no ignoring going on, we are swimmingly fine!

Nice blog to read, but nothing really interesting or new (at least for me).
Mephysto, can you give us at least a list of bugs, which should be resolved with the new bugfix-patch?
Kieron, where are the blogs from Oveur? I really like to know what¦s up with Kali!

So we lose out on content whilst our subs go towards the development of a server we can't use and will offer nothing to our game play.
No sign of bug fix patch, no sign of new content and no sign of Kali Expansion.
I can hardly wait for the China server to be up and running, like I give a ***t.
Am i the only to see yet more "promises" being broken by CCP.

Now we all know how to make the bug fixing go faster - send donations to CCP's Tea / Coffee Fund

If you also couple it with a donation to the devs' beer fund, your bug is likely to go to the top of the list.

......
ammm.. I read that dev blog 3 times and couldn't find the answers to those questions,
the only answer that had anything to do with TQ was "more on that at a later date."
Anyway keep up the good work, you might get to us in time.

Wrong. We have released more new content in the past 6 months than we did in the preceeding year with RMR and Bloodlines. Kali will be even larger than RMR and Blood combined.
As for adding nothing to your gameplay, keep in mind that Optic is licensing EVE, and the proceeds from that licensing agreement will be pumped back into EVE in the form of more Devs/staff, more GMs, more equipment, and yes, even more content.

I believe Mephysto mentioned the return of Singularity and the testing of patches there. Expect a TQ patch to be deployed to TQ within the next 2 weeks. Kali and all the included content will be coming in the next few months. This has been stated numerous times before on the forums.

are you looking to expand the dev team once serenity starts bringing in the iskies?
also, if you don't mind me asking: how does the amount of cash serenity will bring in (projected, its obviously not certain yet) compare to the amount from TQ?
edit: also, how different will serenity be from TQ? will the universes be identical? or will there be changes to certain areas? (gallente f/ex)

Yes, we have already started to do so, including bringing in a new person for HR. The jobs page will see more listings in the very near future. I know at this moment, we are going through applications for GMs and Content Devs.

I don't have those projections and am not authorized to share that information, even if I did have it.

The static data will be identical. Once Serenity goes live, that is where divergence begins and the Chinese community takes control.

OK, that makes sense. I kinda doubted that info would be available, but it was worth a try.

Was what i was hoping. Would be nice to see another world develop, and see if analogues to the big organisations on TQ occur (like m0o, XETIC, BoB)

I was hoping for a completely different universe for Serenity instead of just a translation of Tranquility with the Amarr, Caldari, etc backstories, just to have the two be unique. Like after the first Eve gate collapsed a second one opened near Earth, so colonists went through that one. But oopsies, that gate collapsed soon after too!
Oh well.

Any idea if they'll be hiring more programming staff any time soon?

...nice blog. The common office day at CCP seems quite intriguing...especially the afterwork 3 beers
I am personally very pleased with the current EVE development and feedback cycle. So far the time with EVE have shown that when the devs are very quiet about their doings, then there's something with good impact is coming our way...
Way to go CCP

i was reading the chinesr forums with google translator and one of the threads was going on about "the new station models/cosmetics" did they get some new station models with a more asian apearance?
also how in most of the l4 deadspace complex missions as soon as you launch drones every spawn aggroes onto the drones and then your ship is that intended or a bug? i dont see how anyone could possibly tank a whole room and it seems to be pretty crappy for people who fly the domi if its intended. theres a thread about it here http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=317347 but no dev seem to read the mission forum anymore.
