In other news, the guy whose desk was opposite mine has left my workplace.
He was a workshy idlefop so he was "managed out of the business"

With all the CCP staff leaving for better jobs, how long before EA buys out CCP? Because the Legacy Code has too much Psssssssssssssssh, nothing will ever get fixed until CCP stop wasting money on failed sparkle MMOs and instead rewrite the entire backend of EvE from scratch. |

Between write-offs of "dead product" and the layoffs (nevermind those that leave), I'm still putting even odds on a buyout within a year.
Can't wait for the usual omens (BARDABUNGA ! !) and portents (remember that ECLIPSE that is coming up next year ?) that add such joy to a new owner's inaugural press release: ".... blah, blah, blah... blah, blah... business as usual... blah, blah..."
This will not end well...

They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake. |

By the time CCP gets sold,EVE will already be on it's way to the grave and selling will be Hillmar trying to get some of his eggs out of the falling basket. If EA buys it, it will be for 2 reason. 1- Get the IP for potential future games. 2- Try to pull it out of the hole with investment few company beside EA are able to dump in a game. Most likely number 1. |

People are used to the Eve-model of failcascade. RL company is not Eve-O.
That being said, things need to change. Real effort needs to be put forth to fix the major underlying issues with CCP or it will fail.
Note I have said CCP and not Eve-O. GÇ£I personally refuse to help AAA take space from itself so it can become an even shittier version of itselfGÇ¥ -Grath Telkin, 2014.

Honestly, I don't think CCP will be bought by EA anytime soon or ever. Frankly Westwood was absorbed because EA wanted Command and conquer. Once they had that they killed EnB. The only IP that could maybe entice EA is WoD. I doubt eve has the traction to base other games on if eve and the like was killed. Until you see valk and legion launched and how they fair that's when you should worry. OMG Comet Mining idea!!! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=331766 |

EA would never buy CCP, Icelandtic government would never allow it and I'm sure the Volcanoes of Iceland would destroy the world in retribution and the Vikings would come back from the dead and raid all of Europe in anger. |
