Our Senior Producer for EVE Online, t0rfifrans, introduces our next expansion EVE Online: Apocrypha in the first of a series of upcoming blogs. Over the coming weeks we will publish further blogs going deeper into the various features and aspects of Apocrypha. But first, we present: Fury of the Apocrypha.

We need MOAR details, plz!
Are we going to have the "ctrl-overview update freeze" for this expansion? CCP Zulupark said he'll look into it, and Tux (I think it was Tux) said this would be really simple to implement. Thanks!

"In the coming weeks, each of these teams will be writing a couple of blogs on their features and how they are developed."
That is the most stupid devblog I have ever read here.
We already know that the expansion is scheduled for March 10th. We already know about the deal with Atari. And it shouldn't be worth any mentioning that the employees are enthusiastic about their work on really focused onto it.
Only really new info is that there are 11 scrum teams. Who cares? I don't.
Why not at least mentioning about what the 11 devblogs will be? It should be perfectly clear to the senior producer on which each of the team is working and so he could exactly tell us the nature of the 11 devblogs.
Far to much PR going on.

If you guys don't start getting something on SiSi, beginning with the Premium Lite client, then CCP is going to have new respect for the term "Beware the Ides of March."
Get us something to test! Your in-house test systems simply won't catch all of the problems!

This is the age old problem really. Any time I've ever worked on a project for work it's been a horrible struggle between actually working on the project or writing up reports for managers saying that I'm working on the project.
Personally I'd prefer the actual teams work on what they are doing rather than work on writing about what they are doing. All software development has a code freeze before publish at sometime, that would be the best time for the teams to write devblogs I think. |

ItÆs better than that, 11 teams couple of blogs per team = 22 blogs. As for who cares about 11 teams I do, itÆs an interesting concept and way of working.

Maybe I sounded a bit to negative. What I meant is: what interest is it if there are 11 teams and not 10 or 12?
Also I meant that just writing the topics of upcomming blogs would have been a better move like:
"There will be 11 blogs, these will be
1: t3 ships
2: unstable wormholes
3: epic missions
4: ui
5: npc ai
..."
Ahh, each to their own!  |

He has a point. This dev-blog is serious deficient in actual new information and rather burdened by PR talk. |

Several teams each working on specific features....
Isn't there a big risk of something going wrong when the whole thing is put together?

I have a bad feeling about this...
Many independent teams... each working on something else... tight deadlines... oh, boy, do I smell patches and bugreports and hotfixes galore !
P.S. Oh, and a lot of "STATUS : changed from bug to feature (eh, works like this too)".

Scrum teams to be exact, each of which is self sufficient, has their own game designers, artists, QA people, programmers and producers. These teams are capable of tackling entire features on their own
Hooray for wildly inconsistent code!  |

Past experience shows that this sentence of the Dev Blog is a tiny little bit wrong :
Quote:
Iæm eagerly looking forward to simply logging on to TQ come March 10th and playing till my eyes bleed and fingers go numb.
it should be more like this :
Quote:
I'm hoping that after two emergency Patches i'll be able to login on to TQ come March 14th and that after reorganizing all my Settings to get to play...

If there's anything t0rfifrans is good at, it's teasing.
I can also confirm that he's NOT moved to the marketing department despite how people seem to think so

"and new world maps"
I dont know if this has been mentioned before. I have certainly heard nothing about it. Does it imply more, new (jove???) space or is is just the crappy 3D maps are getting a boost.
would like to hear more about this
