Wasn't the OP quitting or something? Why bother asking about the changes?


Seriously. Actually had the guts to say in all seriousness that unsubbing 2 characters was not even a form of quitting.


I'll take that, but I could have sworn I saw a string of iquits get shuffled into oope recently and one had his name on it. Or maybe I saw it up here I don't know.



All I have said is that I am going to stop the 3-month auto renewal on my 4 accounts, which were scheduled to occur in May, less than a month before the Odyssey deployment.

Without knowing what changes will be made, or if those changes will alter my need for 4 accounts, it would be imprudent to allow all of my accounts to auto renew for many months beyond the change.

Also, you won't quit.

Your kind never does.

I've never said I'm entitled to anything.

CCP can change the game anyway they want. However, some of those changes may alter how many accounts I have, or, in fact whether I have any accounts at all.


I'm not demanding they not change, though I would prefer they not change the game too much. I'm simply asking for some details on the planned changes so I can make an informed decision as to whether or not I want to continue subscribing multiple accounts.

Now he's just copy/pasting previous posts. I'm getting dizzy.

I wish CCP maintained full posting history. If they did, you'd see I was very active for 2 years, from 2009-2010. I then went away for the better part of 2 years, and returned late 2012.

Not only does "my kind" quit, I personally quit for 2 years. I came back with the mindset I was going to play in a much more casual play style.

But change (any change) is good for the game, and you should simply adapt to that change or go away.

Right?


You asking me that?

If so, the answer is NO! I've been very much against change. As I've said many times, I pretty much like EVE as it is right now.

I'd be MUCH happier seeing NOTHING change, then I'd be if most of the ideas presented on these forums were instituted.


Sure, there are some changes I'd like to see. For example, I think the current war dec system, where if I get war decced, I just don't bother logging in, is in general, not only lame, but pretty bad for the game. But, I'd be happier that the system not be messed with then, say... remove NPC corps that allow me to escape the unwanted war dec.

I'd love to see the addition of a way to uncloak an AFK cloaky. However, NOT if that change was accompanied by an even more radical, removal of local as an intelligence tool.


Stagnation is the FASTEST way to kill a successful MMO.
even bad changes don't generally kill one instantly.. look at how long SWG kept holding on... that thing had a series of about 4 terrible paid expansions... then it got killed to make room for SWToR.

if, as you seem to wish, nothing about eve ever changed again, the game would hemorrhage players like an open vein.

MMO's evolve. Things change. Much like existence it's a simple case of adapt, or die.

as a final note... CCP will release the data when they are good and ready... they won't release data before that (unless someone loads the wrong maps into a dust game for instance.)
Simply put... you want to know, do what everyone else does and wait for CCP to release the info.

Look at this ******* carebear crying already over the upcoming Great Hisec Nerf of his own imaginings. I can't wait until they start announcing actual details, so people will have some morsels to then warp to suit their paranoid nightmares.

Technically, they didn't. The bombshell was dropped 9 days ago, which doesn't even round up to "weeks".

Besides: figurative vs. literal. Look it up.

"You can't just..." is a figurative expression usually meaning, "It would suck if you..."

Example: "You can't just leave me hangin' like that." In this figurative expression, the speaker is not really hanging, nor is it impossible for the person spoken to, to not continue.

Only on EVE forums could asking for details of an upcoming change, or making prudent changes to long-term account auto-renewal, be construed as crying.

And, all I'm asking for, is something similar to this for the stated Spacescape changes. Some details, or even hints, on what they are thinking or planning, even if it is accompanied by a "some or all of this may or may not happen".

How about this.

Cancel the auto renewal until you get a dev blog and then re sub when you realise you are being special needs?

Stops you whinging on GD again and again surely/?
