What's it about? What is CCP going to cook up in 6 weeks or however long their new release schedule is? When will sov warfare suck less? When will POSes get redone? When will the game get new areas of space to explore? THE NUMBERS, MASON, WHAT DO THE NUMBERS MEAN?!

What, you can't read the dev blogs? The next patchspansion after Crius is going to be FREAKIN AWESOME!!

It's laid out right on page one if you took 5 seconds to look.

They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake.

POS revamp.

edit: I keed I keed. Most likely module changes. They have already laid about the changes to meta levels somewhere. No more meta 1-4 crap. Each meta level will change to affect a certain stat.

for example a t1 gun. meta's would be divided by like optimal, falloff, fitting, rof, tracking, etc etc.

No one told you? CCP is shutting down Eve to work on hello kitty online. Most of the fanbase is already there so its going to be a welcome merger.

bear in mind, the short time between releases doesn't mean the development period for any particular feature'll be as short

A lot of people are looking at the releases in the wrong way.

They're not really 'Expansions'. They're slots that CCP can stick whatever is ready into.

That way, a piece of work that takes 4 weeks comes out in 6 weeks, rather than 6 months later. A piece of work that takes 7 months, comes out in around 8 months, rather than 12.

Change gets smeared across the year, rather than being dumped on us twice a year.

I'd expect most releases to be reasonably quiet ones, with the occasional larger release.

Woo! CSM XI!

You know what you see if you go to the eve main web site and select "latest expansion"? Rubicon. No mention of Kronos, much less Crius or anything after it.

CCP, I think you are a little behind on your upkeep of the main site.

I'll add, this also prevents ccp from doing this:

"Ok guys, our next expantion, corruption, we are doing a huge pos revamp and redesign, its going to be amazing and comes out in 9 months... we will havethese 5 fatures so it will be great!"

*4 months later*

"Sorry guys, features 5 and 4 are cut, we will address these later they were gonna take too long"

*3 months later*

"Crap guys, feature 3 is too buggy, we are removing that, sorry"

*1 month later*

"Ok feature 1 is coming... the rest? oh we could not do them in that time, so we will address it later."

*corruption launches*

"Alright guys the next expansion will be bright star! it comes out in 9 months and will have based around a.. whats that? Oh the rest of the pos revamp will be addressed later, but we are moving on to new shiney now."

What we now have is that if say the pos revamp takes 1 year, they don't need to try and crap it as fast as they can into an expansion out in 9 months, and thus cutting huge chunks they can't finish. If the pos revmp takes a year, they get the year, then the first available slot they put it in. This, so far, is showing its a much better system, but we will know tomorrow if holding the industry stuff off from kronos was a good idea or not.

Technically Kronos and now Crius are not expansions. So they are not behind.

Usually the cause precedes the effect, but who knows maybe it'll happen like you say.

Either of those will probably not happen.

In the meantime, I would suggest having fun with other parts of the game.
