It is painfully evident that CCP does not actually play their game at even half the capacity that their players do. This is demonstrated in repeated design decisions that are released and have tens or hundreds of players come constructively post how said idea is awful and needs to be changed (Like the original 5ly range max nerf on Jump Freighters? Are you kidding me?)
It would be nice if qualified CSM members actually were able to work with CCP to jointly solve issues instead of CCP just using a development dartboard and presenting what they are going to do to the CSM.
CCP has been getting on track the past multiple releases, but there is so much more potential to be had.
You do relaze that all the CSM is is an advisory council right? they can't pull or push ccp into any direction it doesnlt wish to go. All they can do is bring to the attention of ccp our issues and desires. they can yell at ccp or argue all they want. but in the end of the day, ccp can tell them to go away.
It doesn't matter WHO is on the csm, the organization is the same. CCP and CCP alone can decided to listen and take into account what the CSM gives them. The advantage to this, is you have a focused voice for the players, and a way for ccp to tell them stuff they don't want getting out, that the csm might already be able to say is a crappy idea, or work withen the confinds to get the info that its a crappy idea. But even then, ccp may still move ahead. They solve issues, but its CCP's world. And they can chose how to handle it.
The Jump Fatigue was how ccp decided to respond to everyone whining about force projection. So the old adage goes, be careful what you ask for. And based on numbers, jump fatigue is working perfectly how intended.
A better example would be the ESS which is never bloody used, and even the CSM told CCP it would never be bloody used (based on the discusstion forum) yet ccp made it anyway, and guess what... its never bloody used.
OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!
