Ok going by Hilmars latest interview it would seem that Incarna has been shelved? i would like to know if this is the case? if so then basicly all this agro we have went through for these previous months has been for nothing? the years of waiting for WIS has been for nothing?, i for one am very pissed at this news, i just wish CCP would grow a set and finish what they started, they are now backtracking because of there "greed is good" laundry was aired for the public to see and yet again the player's gets shafted...and as for this....

Hilmar Pétursson: It's definitely not a priority for CCP right now. We're really focused on making kick-ass Eve expansions in the more traditional way that we've done so many times in the past. What becomes of the store and Incarna is something that's not a big priority right now, but there may come a time when it makes sense to revisit that.


Maybe if you wheren't so greedy and actualy had "MICRO" transactions in the first place and gave people the option of CQ or ship spinning, people wouldnt have been so pissed, what about the people who have actualy spent money on your NEX store? now you have there money they are no longer a priority????? WOW! just WOW!

Quote:
Eurogamer: So you can confirm that the situation with CCP today is only different from that of six months ago because of the recent issues with the Incarna expansion?

Hilmar Pétursson: Absolutely. Incarna was the final point of realisation that we were trying to do too much at the same time. We were creating avatar tech for two games, integrating in a single code branch with teams around the world all contributing. It was a very ambitious thing and we didn't do it well enough. We're taking that in and addressing that. We've learned a lot, and we will certainly do everything we can to avoid those mistakes again.


NOOOO! its not that you where doing to much to soon, its the fact you thought "Greed was good" that got you in to this mess....and the only mistake you made was getting caught!, i feel all of this is complete BS, the only mistake he will avoid in future is getting caught. maybe if you focused on EVE and DUST instead of WOD you would,nt have to make huge cuts all over the board, but i still see Hilmar has his job and is high and dry up in his ivory tower while he lays of employee's for mistakes HE made, i feel nothing has changed and again im seriously thinking of ubsubbing from this game and taking my money elsewhere.... and no you cant have my stuff! lol

Incarna is actually considered a prototype, the rendering engine that will ship with the MMO will be much more advanced.

They were beta testing for WoD. WoD got shelved, whats the point of continuing the beta when the other game is dead?

Incarna being Shelved! Yes its great news isnt it? Now CCP just has to remove the Nex store and follow through with what they have said recently.

Well no it's not great, not for the people like me that where actually looking forward to Incarna after 5 years of promises , I feel CCP dangled a golden carrot in front of us and then whipped it away without a care or though for the player base yet again, tbh I'm pissed at yet another broken promis, I'm pissed that I'm loosing faith in EVE, I'm sad that I've become apathetic towards the game that I once loved and invested so much time and money in! Shocked

FiS stuff needs to get fixed first, and then we'll think about the WiS

Why?

Because FiS makes the game, simple as that.

No walking in stations without a nicely balanced and working FiS part.

Then Undock this Winter and get it all back.

You see we have these arrows in the corner of the screen and if you press them you undock into a Spaceship in Space.

We call it the fun part of the game and if you get lonely there are chat boxes.

They tried it, it failed, failed SO HARD in fact, they lost 20% of the ppl in the company and had to also shelf WoD (which as I said, was the basis upon which your Incarna stuff was based and as I said, once that was shelved, Incarna was shelved *gasp*).

Yeah they should totally ignore that (and all the players that would them rather fix EVE) and destroy the company. Thatll really help EVE

They were suckers. CCP got out of them what they wanted.

It'll take about 379 years for them to balance FiS properly given the historical rate at which they've completed, balanced, or broken stuff (that they refuse to review for years on end). ;D

Well my gripe is that CCP promised us both WiS and FiS, but the fact they majorly fluffed it all up by no doubt over spending on fancy shmancy clothing designers instead of using in house 3D model makers who design the ships we fly, then trying to pass the bill on to us in the form of over priced NEX store items. Incarna had so much potential and I'm sure everyone thinks the new avi models do look fantastic regardless of what you might think of CQ and Incarna.

I'm all for fixing the flaws of EVE and FiS, we do need new ships, we need to fix lag and other known issues, but to abandon Incarna after all the effort has already been placed in to it and while employees are loosing there jobs is frankly shocking, a lot of people stuck with EVE because of the promis of Incarna and WiS, I just think this will be yet another blow to eve and CCP as a company, there was and is room for both and to abandon one in favour of the other will cause more issues than it solves.

Hooray, this thread again.

Continued WIS development would have literally destroyed EVE. That is not acceptable.

That is all.
