Let me give you guys a little more information on what is coming. Starting next week we will be producing a series of 'In Development' video blogs which will look at what the various teams are planning for Winter 2011. I want to stress that these videos will not contain release dates as we are aiming to provide a lot of stuff and do not want to commit to a date we cannot keep. These will include:

Engine trails - Yes, that's right we are adding engine trails to EVE and we will show the work in progress so far.

New ships - Recently we featured a shot of the Tornado, the Deviant Art contest winner, on the EVE Facebook page. We were not happy with just giving out one ship so we will be showcasing all four new ships.

New nebulae - These new background sin the EVE universe are stunningly beautiful and will add to the immersion and feeling of being in deep space.

Team BFF - This team should be Best Features Fullstop and CCP Soundwave will give an overview of what his team has in store. Capital ship balancing, balancing hybrids, assault ships bonuses and much more will be added during winter.

Customer Relations - The Lead GM's will talk about changes to how petitions are handled, more options for Stuck petitions and how we aim to deal with your issues as fast as possible.

We are not just going to stop there. We will bring you more video blogs about what is in development for EVE Online.


OMFG!

THIS IS THE BEST POST EVEEERRRRRRRRRRRR

Edit: *straightens up, lifts jaw off floor* Okay... the best features ever if/when they are delivered.

First let me start by saying thank you for listen to the players and so far the ideas that have come for the winter expansion look cool. Love the supper cap idea, time dilation, little worried about the customs office thing. Also Thank you for ship spinning.

But my real wonder is what is going to happen with low sec. In the blog, http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=946, we got a glimpse of what was said to happen.

The players have not heard anything after that. I was wondering, is the Ice still being moved out of highsec? Are there still going to be individual buildings for people around planets? What is changing in the Sov mechanics? The players were asked for the feedback, but we have not heard anything from this point on.

In this blog you gave us an outline. http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=2428

Hybrid weapons balancing, Factional warfare, Assault ships, New T2 modules, Starbase logistics management, New EWAR-Drones, T2 Rigs manufacturing

Capital ship balancing, Ship spinning, New font, More captains’ quarter, Time dilation

The Bold we have heard about. What about the rest? And is there more to come?


Yep, there is definitely more to come. In fact we just published a little dev blog on one of the changes.


Excellent now can ye do the same for showing stuff that was in a victim ship's fuel bay, sma and corp hangar, and ore bay too.

For example: I kill a rorqual that had 5 hulks in the sma, a full fuel bay, an ore bay full of Chribba's favourite stuff "Veldspar" and more ores in the corp hangar and cargo hold. i'd like to see the real value of the kill when ya factor in the market value of all that.

These are very welcome additions indeed - but after begging for them for two and a half years (and longer, for a few of these), the company is only now finally getting around to implementing them, and it's all being done in the span of four(ish) months.

This raises a rather uncomfortable question: Since CCP has been able to address these problems so rapidly, what took (the royal) you so long to fix these age old problems?

The easy conclusion to reach is that nobody in charge of feature development cared until the subscriber counts nose dived and the organization could no longer afford to ignore the collective outcry to fix what's broken rather than make more, new, shiny, ego fulfilling features.

This is incredibly frustrating to me.

Team BFF will deserve a hearty clap on the back if they get their wish list online

Any change to petitions has got to be for the better, the system couldn't get much .. could it?

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Thats a good start. I'm looking forward to that stuff.

But I do have a very serious warning. Do not release ship skins via the NeX store if you know whats good for the company. Provide them for loyalty points through the faction (pirate) navy LP store. Any content provided through NeX at this point will be a slap in the face for the Eve player base.
