CCP Manifest,
I respectfully have to disagree with the sentiment of your entire post, and it saddens me that I feel again like CCP doesn't get why I am upset with them. Who cares? well me, and maybe someone else.
Incarna - Walking in stations was supposed to ACCOMPLISH something. CCP NEVER laid out WHAT? WHY? You guys released a trailer saying that a pilot hated getting out of his pod, but for somethings he had to ...
WHAT THINGS?
Captains Quarters and Disembark - for MONTHS people said DO NOT FORCE INCARNA, for YEARS CCP said Incarna will NOT be mandatory. Then we got a mandatory single player room.
Why am I saying these things? Here was CCP's mistake. No plan for Incarna other than hey look, I have a guy who can walk around. That being said, I REALLY, TRULY, ABSOLUTELY, want Incarna. But I want to DO SOMETHING ...
CCP doesn't fire and forget?!? Are you serious? Until THIS expansion the ignored features list was HUGE. The evelopedia is FULL of topics that the CSM put forth to fix things, that sit languishing to this day. The Fire and Forgotten items included: POS management, Corp Management and permissions (still a holy hell), Wallet management (WHY IS ALL MY ISK IN ONE POT!), UI customizations (still quite awful, sorry Ms P), Missions (zzzz), Mining (zzzzz), Bounty Huntings, Factional Warfare, Assault Frigates, Many poor ships - Eos, Vulture, HaCs, etc.
Why do I say Fire and Forgotten? Because players saw NO improvement for years, I've only been here since 2008, and the neglect just piled higher and higher.
I do agree with you that CCP did an awful job communicating. This player's perspective is that unless CCP will redo an entire area of the game, they'll leave it broken for years. CCP Manifest, your CEO said HE made a mistake. Do you REALLY think CCP didn't?
AG
PS I'm happy you (Manifest) survived the 20%, and I get the need for good PR, but Eve is about courage to do and say what's right.
Let us eat cake! -áI mean open containers in corp hangers please ...
Let us stack all modules (eliminate repackaging), except damaged ones, give them a red hue/icon.
Let us see damaged drones in our drone bay!
