It's a tweak and balance expansion, but the changes are HUGE!

Oh, wait, you're not an Industrialist?

You're screwed.

:P

You realize that it's because all CCP ever did was the big content expansions that were never revisited that their playerbase forced them to do all these tweak and balance expansions, right?

I am willing to accept a one time transferring of now unneeded valuables that you may wish to be rid of.

CCp damn near died trying to give people "Jesus Features" that they would then go on to forget about (sure, CCPs gonna get around to finishing COSMOS one of these days, i just know it).

What we as a community told them is "fix the game, screw the big stuff" and that's what they've been doing. The game is soooo much better than it was in 2009 because of it. CCP should keep doing that. Oh how easily people forget the past.

Well if thats your opinion then fine. But 3 expansions in a row of it and nothing decent otherwise is not good. and im sorry but when you played for many years, just tweaks doesnt really make the game feel any different or better.

eve needs balances and overhauls/reworks of current features far more than it needs a new race, land or power set, but it seems people don't think an expansion is 'big enough' without pandas in it?

I've been playing since June 2007 (Revelations II) and the last 3 expansions have added more enjoyment to the game than I ever had before.. Hell, having cheap t1 cruisers for pvp and t1 battleships for pve that don't suck magical ass is by itself worth the price of admission.

I was around when CCP added big features (faction warfare, Wormholes/T3, Incursions, Marauders, Black Ops) and I remember how unfinished it all was, on top of the laundry list of things that needed fixing that didn't get fixed because CCP was to busy doing 'big things'.

EVE is much better now. If you're bored of it that's a personal issue, not something that CCP needs to fix.

To be fair, though, Wormholes were a damn good feature on launch. Arguably the most polished/have held up the best since their introduction feature in the game that I can remember in recent history.

Well, except for Incarna, obviously.

Nobody can deny that that was EVE's most successful expansion ever.

I disagree.

We need the fifth playable race that CCP announced last April.

The ship rebalances have provided more content than most of the other "big expansions" put together. We collectively flipped our **** to get these fixes and are very thankful for them.

Most of these have been in discussion with the CSM per the minutes. Take a break, come back in 12-18 months and maybe you'll be happy. Otherwise it sounds like you are going to be quite depressed for the foreseeable future.

I prefer giving CCP well enough time, even further too if needed, to overhaul the legacy code or whatever it was called, to carry the game over to multicore operation. Mere support for it is coming to the end of its lifespan, and I have a mysterious feeling of dark forces that is not such a good thing.

All posts and mails screencapped and time stamped, including out of EVE, you will not reverse on me.

Might come in handy!

Agreed. The ability to watch MLP on a big screen in-game while EVEing is awesome.

Im not here to play goons online. Also i guess a few thousand people that have unsubbed have a different opinion also then eh? i guess your opinion is the only one that matters? That's fine if you dont agree with me.
Yes some of the major feature stuff was unfinished, so we should just stop doing them? Perhaps CCP should just do them properly perhaps?


Yes the balances have help like t1 ships but its also spoilt the game as now things like FW is just frig warfare mainly. Lots of the ships in the middle are not used in gangs like we used to. So its actually had a detrimental effect.

So we will have had almost 2 years of just tweaks and balances and you think that will keep and bring more people to the game? Why dont you stop thinking about what you want, and think about that the game needs?

PLEASE! Don't talk logic on EvE GD forum!

It's KNOWN that developers can EXCLUSIVELY produce EITHER tiny, well made patches OR terrible, unfinished, unplayable expansions.

NO WAY anyone in the industry ever managed to create an expansion that is actually good and finished Blink

Don't dare to go against the groupthink, else you'll get angry bees on your ass!

This game took its first and only hit to numbers when they gave us big new unfinished features. It wasn't goons that rioted, it was everyone. EVE is now growing in subs again after CCP changed their path and focused on fixing stuff.

I now see ships being used that never saw the light of day before. We used to use the same handful of ships all the time until they were either nerfed or something else was buffed to the point of being overpowered. Now I can pick damn near any ship and have success with it.

Not even the sub numbers agree with you.
