OP's logic is valid, but not necessarily sound. -

Excellent post OP. I think you indicated the sentiments of many older long term players, but I think your post is worthless as CCP has already lost the people who made this game great and the new ones do not have the ability or vision to make this game into what it was supposed to be.
Yay Ambulation!

I wish I could say I think you're completely wrong, but I don't.
But we'll see, not ready to give up just yet.

well, i guess, as the years passes and the whole mmo industry is growing,with more games released and more people being aware of this type of entertainment, its more or less unavoidable that a larger part of the playerbase will be made up of people from outside the older gaming groups. and my guess is that many of these people is expecting to be entertained rather than feeding a hobby that they have nurtured for a long time in different forms like roleplaying or tabletop games.It will be interesting to see how ccp is going to tackle this dilemma if they want to keep the hard nature of the game they once created and at the same time finding new players.

And doom did rain down upon the earth from the heavens, as it had since the creation of the forums.
You're not the first one to predict the game's death, you won't be the last, and you're just as wrong as the rest of them.

Originally by: Cygnus Zhada Ok, to try and have the new CCP understand a few things I will explain what made it possible for the new CCP to actually have a job in the first place.
Delusions of Relevancy.
P.S. You're wrong.

Meh, why do people make up all kinds of BS to ratify the fact they just got tired of the game.

Im surprised that the topic isnt locked yet . What op says about is completely right . He is worried that the developers of eve are not working for it anymore .
Its damn easy to realise that , i know people that can create games in 1 day out of nothing , no library no prepared work . So thats what a capable developer can do , although none of them are eve or even tetris maybe. But , that 1 day work is easily more than last 3 patches eve spammed on us.
While the game still has major bugs , exploits , failing systems , ships with no purpose , bot miners , everything are still there and they are not being worked on.
And while i was finaly waiting for some effort, some patch , they spammed fw. Whats that , 5 lines of code ?
Just input 4 faction corps into game and make them permawar between eachother, there you go , a new patch !
So yes , eve is abandoned . Think whatever you want to .
You dont need to read dev's minds to see this, nor have to be a very old player. Just look at what they have done in the last 3 year , the patches and spammed content .
None of them are actualy something new or fix to ancient bugs , they are merely new imputs to already existing database's with different hue textures. And yes, boost amarr . Tired of playing with laser toyguns. |

Edited by: Siigari Kitawa on 29/08/2008 11:47:07 I agree with the OP. And I don't think he's whining about nanos.
To be honest, I haven't even thought about nanos much recently, though I have been playing less.
When I started EVE there was a deep sense of culture. Everyone was out to make money: miners were mining in lowsec in 5-10 person gangs, mission runners were exploring for the best agent in the lowest security, pirates were feared and the community was very respecting of them, people were getting scammed left and right by intelligent scammers and escrow was cool as hell.
Now we have the diluted version of the original EVE. It's true, really. So many things have come into play to make EVE an easier game to play. Not so much that EVE was a "difficult" game but it has always had a high learning curve. I spent an entire DAY doing the tutorial. It was that confusing. And I almost quit too... had it not been for spaceships with lasers.
Now a lot of things are different. It has me apprehensive and sad as to what CCP may be thinking next, but as I am a person in a world of capitalism, I realize that CCP will try to turn every buck they can because they are a business. Businesses are in it to make money FIRST (always). They have to pay things up front before they can even make a dime, so you have to take that into account.
I don't have a crystal ball that tells me what CCP is thinking. But then it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that CCP is here to make money. I have seen literally dozens of bits of marketing around the internet trying to draw people unawares into EVE and it is disheartening.
EVE-Online used to be a game that came from word-of-mouth with awards for best PVP and more. CCP to this day has the award on the front page from a 2003 June PC Gamer magazine of "90%".

CCP, don't leave your game. It was once a game of distinction, and now it is slowly turning into a pop game.

I agree with Nightsheir, the patches which have been churned out are generally to cause hype and to sink your isk and time. the developers they have working on spamming "content" could do a lot more if they fixed their current products problems which have been around for far too long. the amount of hype they created about FW was a joke, biggest isk sink i have seen yet. I get the impression that the devs who created a game with so much potential and such great ideas are either off doing design on another game, completely stumped with ambulaion and cannot take a week to examine the degrading state of their game, or in hawaii enjoying peoples monthly payments. the nano nerf is the first sign of actual dev intervention i have seen in a long time, and it is so very overdue that i'm thinking some eve player must have met them in the bar in honolulu and complained in person, only explaination i can think of. I dont think they will turn this game into a simple cash machine for a new project, but i do think that at some point a better design company will come along and buy eve because of its player base and do some improvements to the gameplay and interface bugs instead of hyping up fake content patches that take no more than a week to program. thats me 2 cents.
