Soooooo, where can I find a list of stuff that's going to be added in the Crius release? I know about the industry and science changes. What else is incoming?

Also, I haven't seen any prospects yet. Anyone having a blast with them? Do tell :-)

For that matter: is there a list of the various updates, including what will be added in a roadmap format? I work at a tech company, and we have a rolling 1 year pipeline with all projects and additions to our platform.

You don't tend to see Prospects, largely due to the CovOps cloaks they fit.

yah, was more talking along the lines of I don't see any Prospects in my Neocom App on the iPhone :-). I'm aware of them funky cloaky type things. I fly a Helios quite often.

In the patch notes once it goes live

Crius is live on singularity now, below is the feedback forum for the various features involved and information on how to login to the test server (singularity) can be found in "information listing".
Read the rules regarding player behavior beforehand as they are different to tranquility.

Didn't they go to the 6 week expansion schedule in order to avoid this? Stuff gets released when it's ready, not on a predefined schedule. There will be a list of what's coming, once the patch notes are released.

I get that, and it's what I mean by a rolling pipeline: i.e. not fixed in stone. Everything is an approximation of course, but it would be fun to know if CCP is working on T3 interceptors with tricycle models before or after a nerf to AFK cloakers (disclaimer: these are examples). For instance: at said tech company, every project comes with a traffic light. green: will meet cut off for new release, yellow: might slip, red: will very likely slip. The 6 week cycle is pulling to more into modern project management thinking of course, but more info would still be very much welcome. With higher iteration, releases become more fluid, but there's always a pipeline behind it.

I very much doubt that CCP has X projects going at the same time and just sits back and waits for Y projects to be complete and then go: well, we'll add those then.

If they are smart and listen, the NES will be updated with stockings and tights.

Does your company make that information available to the public/clients? I honestly wish CCP was more disciplined in not announcing new shinies until they're near deployment.

Personally, even IF I have a 1-year rolling work outline available to my employees, that would be with a non-disclosure agreement attached. Rather, I prefer my ROLLOUT plan to handle the reveal. Makes the stock holders much happier.

How had no one just mentioned dev blogs yet?

Just dev blogs in general, is exactly what you're looking for.

Goto the community site using the EVE Universe button top right. It has news, latest patch notes, lore, everything.

Thanks for the replies all.

They released a DevBlog (yeah I do read em already) on the starbase stuff yesterday. So that's something. Still, just the bullets and holistic set of changes would be nice.

I'm a returning player. Way back when, in the olden days when salvaging was new and before the graphical update I believe, there was this "What's our plan with EVE" part of the site that had all the features they still wanted to include in the game, up to and including the 'crazy professor' phase. Does that still exist?

I was checking up on fanfest blogs and stuff (as it just happened) and I see CCP is updating a bunch of processes such as science and industry for 'reasons', which should eventually lead up to player owned stargates or some such.

I guess what I'm getting at is the mid/long term plan CCP has feature wise. It was always a big draw for me.

Well you wont be disappointed, it has never changed

Announce a year's worth of plans

Release entirely different unrelated things in that year instead

And due to the fact that most overviews still wont have them set on it (its under expedition frigate btw)
