like any good quote it is ripped completely out of context Big smile

It isn’t really hard, but I think there are customers that you can lose in a good way and there’s customers that you can lose in a bad way. If people come in and fundamentally don’t like EVE Online, then I think that might be a good way of losing customers. EVE isn’t for everyone. I wish it was, but the reality is that there are some people who just enjoy playing another game more. And that’s not really that bad.

I think the shame is when people see EVE and they really want to play it and they get hit by this learning curve and the system discourages [them from playing]. Sometimes our players ask us if we’re dumbing EVE down, and I don’t really think so. I think we’re just getting closer and closer to a place where the people we lose are people that it’s okay to lose. If you don’t like sci-fi games, if you don’t like spaceships, then this might not be a game for you. But if you really like spaceships and you can’t get past the fifth page in the tutorial, then we’re losing you for a stupid reason.

These changes we simply have to make. That’s absolutely doing good stuff with the learning curve, and as Jon said, we’re working on that right now and hopefully making that easier.


That brings me to One, Two, Three (Ah, Ha, Ha) perfect quotes for mining whine threads.

CCP Wrangler's Hello Kitty one, Soundwave's Rubik's Cube one (both the out of Context fanfest one and the better context PC gamer one), and now this one from Soundwave.

Excellent

By the way, I really like this one from that:

Why shouldn't the empires who claim the space not have the responsibility to maintain the gates? Empires who claim the space are the one risking there investments and resources. Not concord, yet they have rights to charge us... I say screw concord... Pirate

Spelling is important. It is the difference between knowing your **** and knowing you're ****.

CONCORD vs CFC + Southern Coalition in Delve. Please.

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

its needed to pay the power bills of the lowsec gate guns

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

in reality. ISK sink... its why there are random costs for anything in an MMORPG.

in Lore, could just claim upkeep of the Stargates. or the subspace beacons that the chat channels work.

EVE is like swimming on a beach in shark infested waters,  There is however a catch...  The EVE Beach you also have to wonder which fellow swimmer will try and eat you before the sharks.
