Problem: "They gave that [Band of Brothers] guy a blueprint, and that's not fair"
My Response: well first, life isn't fair, second - it's all better now and the person giving out candy to the most powerful alliances has been dealt with. The rest of CCP flies right.
The real thing here is the person who gave them the BP (I think) wasn't fired. This is very bad for PR and accountability in general. They're trying to reverse it with CSM but I dunno how seriously people take that.

Problem: "Servers crash 'ALL TEH' TIYM!"
My Response: You try and code this beast. When servers crash I've heard of game administrators getting up in the middle of their night so we can keep playing video games through ours. MMO servers crash - that's what they do. In my experience Eve has crashed the least out of all the MMO's I've played over time.
Maybe you would have a more stable server if your code wasn't based on a demo you made in pre-alpha. Apparently they just kept the "EVE demo version" code and thats what we're still using today. I don't know if that introduces inefficiencies but I'd imagine it does. Apparently it also moves items very inefficiently.

Problem: ôMy boot.ini was pwned and now my computer is screwedö
My Response: Oh my boot.ini was æpwnedÆ too and my computer still booted.
This was a really horrible error and no MMO developers have an excuse for that. Blizzard would never allow something like that (IMO the gold standard of game development, not necessarily products, but methods).

ccp rock, its just like most things in life people with something to complain about are alot more vocal than those who are perfectly happy with the situation, its human nature.
There is a very obvious difference between whining and legitimate complaints. Legitimate complaints, such as saying the UI is horrible (watch your overview delete settings and jump around every time you undock) would help everyone if CCP responded to them and generally make the game better. Whines, like all of the nano posts, just go on about how a certain group of players (FW noobs) are unable to deal with anything but other slow ships that sit on the gate. |
