CCP Guard wrote:Hey!
CCP Tallest did something that caused him to recently become the father of twins (they'll probably be taller than me by next week...)! So he's away on paternity leave for a little while and his team is mostly focusing on their own areas of specialty while he's away. But continued re-balancing is still very much on the agenda for upcoming releases.
Oh snap... I take back all the mean things I said... Tell tallest mazel-tov for me eh |

That is why more than 1 guy should be balancing the ships, not that Tallest isn't awesome :D |

Dude! Dude! Listen! Tallest is multiplying! In a few decades time you will be knee deep in ship changers!
The game has a tutorial that gives you a mining laser and a railgun and tells you to go shoot rocks and red crosses. It teaches you nothing else. It's been that way for 8 years, so are you really surprised that there are people who aren't aware that this is a pvp game? --Jafit McJafitson |

We actually have three people dedicated to it now, the other two are just working on other areas (titan tracking, anyone?). |

I was thinking along the same wavelength, soundwave. Luckily Tallest and other CCP employees are male, so they can continue to drink the whole time the pregnancy comes to term. Was afraid his child(s) would have problems with how much drinking happens. But that dont matter, keep up the drunkedness, women only can't drink. disorientating |

What a goof !!
Work environment with women around is always better, believe me I almost know what I'm saying. Thing is that when you pin one it's like plates drawbacks, you look better but you get slower and you'll have to work harder. Tallest is just testing IRL Dominix piloting, this time he will do the right thing ! |

Damnit Punkturis, you have to take on his mantle of the saviour of the Gallente people, then. Get into that source code, change a few values and be hailed as a hero. |

To be fair if one perosn goes on leave for an extended peroid of time, important parts of the game should not be neglected becuase of it especially when it was a focus for the new expansion, that is poor corporate organization and planning. That said CCP is honestly the most interactive and engaging of the playerbase of any mmo publisher i have seen to date. You guys have a sense of humor that i love, and you seem to treat your people well from my point of view.
So congrast to Tallest and good luck with the double work load at home ;) (I too am a fan of dogs over babies lol) |

Just be sure to distinguish between GM, who read, write, have some professional social skills and Devs, who do actual programming, image muckery (while using illegal substances i.e. camouflage paint), meshes and database administration. Although, a lot of it is playing with programs that make games, such as 3D Max.  Ideas & stuff EVE - the game of sand castles, either building them or kicking them down. -á Status: Taking a break |

Let the games begin Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.
