Why is every patch simply a rejigging of EXISTING content? Every patch seems to be just focused on rebalancing this or that or removing things from the game. With the exception of a few new ships here and there, I can't see that much actually meaningful NEW content has been added to the game in awhile.
Where's all the NEW content? Can't we have more sand in the sandbox? Game is getting stale without the addition of new things.
Why not add more player housing options for solo players? Why not add Pirate FW? So many things could be added to game but instead we just get rebalanced rail guns and or a 'rebalanced' half-ass change to T2 production.
Why aren't CCP adding new content to the game? |

@Aria:
Yes, I think it's a worthwhile endeavour to make previous content meaningful, just concerned that this seems to be CCP's almost exclusive focus for some time now.
I want to see the game moving forward as well as tweaking historical content.
@Omar:
Yes, in a sandbox game the players make meaningful additions to the content. But I expect CCP to also help us out and add new things to the game (especially as I'm paying them to do so). Am I to expect that CCP think the game is 'done' and that players are now solely responsible for making content? |

Actually, you are paying to use their server as outlined in the ToS.
Why, thank you, Thing!

Because you are paying them for the privilege of providing content for them. Win/win for CCP  |

But I thought sandboxes were all about throwing new toys in, and a bucket of sand or two!
A new ship very odd patch is more than plenty for me. |

Part of what slows down the expansion of the sandbox is the expansion of the sandbox.
Whenever something new is added it also causes rebalances and tweaks and sometimes even complete revisions of existing sand in order for things to function properly. Needless to say, this is a lot of work in and of itself.
The game is never done, but ultimately we the players bear the primary burden for making it fun... CCP just provides us with the tools to do so.

Great.
I look forward to the next patch where they add a new skin to Scanner Probes and rebalance Genetic Livestock.
Happy days! |

There is nothing wrong in that but as OP said we need badly more sand in the box. Adding ships doesn't count we need tools to reshape the universe around us.
We heard about player owned gates from the Fanfest 2014(?) and we they still didn't mange to deliver it, and they reintroduced the gates again with more tools (new structures) and we still didn't got anything, don't get me wrong I'm excited about all of these new features from the Fanfest but nothing new in our hands yet...

You get a new patch every 6 weeks you can't honestly expect them to add new things every time some games get a new patch maybe once a year... You should be grateful for this... |

You really didn't pay attention to the fanfest presentations did you....... where the gates were at the END of a SEVERAL YEAR roadmap, which we are working our way down the path of.
As for new. Well, there are these things called seekers & drifters and jove observatories and shattered WH systems and T3 destroyers just to name a few new things which add to the sandbox.
I think you just have lost sight of the sand for all the toys. |

Yes, let's look at EVE's 'Updates' page: http://updates.eveonline.com/
- [REBALANCE] Rebalancing the Ishtar
- [REBALANCE] Medium Railgun tweaks
- [TWEAK TO EXISTING MECHANIC] Changes to installer and download
- [TWEAK TO EXISTING MECHANIC] Skynet Fighter change
- [TWEAK TO EXISTING MECHANIC] CSPA charges change
- [REBALANCE] Rebalancing T3 Cruiseer subsystems
- [TWEAK TO EXISTING MECHANIC] 3D Starmaps
- [NEW CONTENT] Drifter and Seeker additions
- [NEW MECHANIC] Yearly character stats
- [NEW FEATURE] Ship skins
- [SECURITY] Two factor authentication
- [REBALANCE] SoV Mechanic rebalancing
So the only really new content there i see is the drifter and seeker stuff. The rest is all just tweaking and rebalancing.

'Hello? Yes, operator, can I have a waaaambulance to GD right away please? Yes, another one. You'll see him right away when you get here; he's bloated and petulant with a big-baby hair-do, and he has big salty tears trailing down his cheeks. Okay, thanks, bye.'

'Calm down everybody they're on their way. CCP, you get to making that new content OP is talking about - yes the space-houses and conceptually-redundant system for letting pirates shoot at each other. Quick before he unsubs dammit!' |

Because every once in a while you have to scoop all the cat sh*t out of the sandbox and clean it a bit. Otherwise people wouldn't play in the sandbox anymore because it turned into a litter box.

This hair-do is called a 'Caldari Quiff' I'll have you know!
And bloated? That's muscle mass damn you!  |

Let me see.
Done
- added wormhole resembling PvP arena.
- added nullsec data/relic sites to low class wormholes.
- added a new class of (OP) ships.
- added a new class of wormholes with plenty loot.
- changed jump mechanism
- streamlined industry
- introducing drifters
Planned
- complete overhaul of the SOV system
- complete overhaul of pace structures
- adaption of null sec ores
I'm sure I'm still missing something. Anyway I prefer this to 10 new levels of the same old spells, attacks and enemies with bigger numbers for a small fee. |
