EVE Information Portal

Thank you Himlar, nice to hear you have started to listen to us now and your appology really helped put our minds at ease even a little bit.

i believe

CCP:

What you do, not what you say.

So I guess Hilmar was getting sick of seeing that he effectively lost 25% of his revenue with the massive number of people that were unsubscribing due to the asinine bits that were being put in and the voice of his customer base being ignored.

Hey Hilmar: what we DID, not what we SAID. Can you hear us now?



Ok, with that off my chest and said, I am happy to have read both the blogs. It has not (yet) fully restored my faith in CCP and the devs but it has done one hell of a first step towards doing so. Towards making me happy to play this game. Towards making me want to brag to others "I play Eve". I look forward to the day when my trust and faith in those that make this game is fully restored. These blogs haven't done that, but they have at least made me see a bright light at the end of the tunnel, after a long time of being in the dark.

As my dad used to tell me all the time, "It's not how you f*ckup, it's how you recover". CCP, we are watching how you take this chance to recover and I at least am hoping and have faith that you will do it right.

/soapbox

That little page of text just gave me back part of my hope for EvE.

But the game clearly needs new features with the Incarna stuff.

Flying around in a ship killing stuff is fun, but it's pointless after a time... We need more stuff to do, be it inside a station or whatever.

You know what would be awesome ?? Space Casino Stations.... man i'd waste all my time playing casino in EvE with all my ISK.


You've put CCP Back on the right track, now stay on it.

Hard to fix a mistake until you admit it at least to yourself, and a hard thing that unfortunatly many are unable to do.

I understand the need for primarys to be immortal, but to have an alternate (leutenant etc..) to run in Dust (dissapointed in no PC I am not buying a game console period) or other enviorment (Landing party, damn captain shouldnt be out there anyway) would bring back the excitment of role playing that most have no memory of. Scouts (ala rangers) come into their own when you can be greased in an instant. The problem, was the whiners won and ruined the genre......

Also I have a hard time conceiving a battleship run by one person......a bridge enviorment with weapon specialists, fighter piolets,engineers etc etc would be a better player team interactive in my mind.
Its not like a battleship shoud spend its time mining or other mundane tasks unless in dangerous waters....

Players could still run marketing , alts etc.. in the downtime. That makes your sound to general quarters a good drill...woe to the corp that cant get people to battlestations within 60 seconds.......

Good blog, you failed, you're aware, you'll fix it. Couldn't ask for more myself.
Just focus on making this awesome game even better and remember what players want to keep playing is just a few basic things (no bots, less lag, less bugs), not state of the art carbon (if you have it, great - but remember that's not what brought us here and sure won't keep us here by itself).

All I say is Thanks for that Hilmar. Also I wanna ad I never lost my trust in CCP compared to many of the angry kids I saw in the forum I know that HUMANS makes mistakes and yes I say kids cuz of the way they behaved. Sure they are right to be angry but they can still behave and also I wanna add in my opinion to all of you on the forum that got rely angry if u think u can do a better job than go ahead start making a new eve game that is superior, well I did not think you would u bloody hypocrites.

And they say wow players are immature well eve player sure showed they can be worse.


Next Time be more Mature eve community.

Sounds good to me

Kids huh!!

He spit in your face and you say be mature. I bet you think the TSA will keep America safe too.

blah blah blah, words words words
i'm still stuck paying for a crappy game only made crappy by your crappy decisions.
we've given you the answers on how to make things better, you blew us off. now you want to say you're sorry and make it all better.
you're right, actions speak louder than words, will i have to wait 18 months™ before things start getting fixed?
you're too powerful and your pay scale is too high for this kind of screw up.
get it fixed or find another career opportunity.
i'm tired of waiting for you to get your act together.
