This should be lots of fun, good luck!

P.S. I'll vouch you into PL faster than Jeff.

For the record...I'm a huge fan of this.

I'll make sure CCP Falcon's alter ego gets invites to Agony NPSI roams...just like we would do with any rookie player looking to learn PVP.

haha, wow, look at this guy

how to act un-professional 101

edit: content so this doesnt get deleted-

Sounds like a good idea, Id suggest taking 0 donations or direct help from older players, that would pretty much defeat the purpose of the "experiment", do stuff a noob would do, low lvl agent missions, mining and such, maybe after a month move into FW and a month or three later have a go at piracy to see if you still have the old Veto yarr in you.

It's going to be an interesting thing to watch, although nothing like a new player experience as your knowledge makes you about as far from a new player as it's possible to get, and the main part of the NPE is how do you get that knowledge in the first place.

I think it's a really great idea, maybe new players can use the way he does it as a guide.

Ignoring the dumb post from IA, if this new char isn't named "Because of Flacon" or some other variant I will be sad (I am assuming Because of Falcon is already taken)

I've got a good idea, maybe send him a PRIVATE MESSAGE or also potentially WALK A FEW FEET DOWN THE HALL AND TALK TO HIM IN PERSON instead of attempting to neuter him in public after he starts doing something a lot of EVE vets have been clamoring for for ages?

Having Devs playing this game in the open with full disclosure is not a bad thing for the game, it's a very good thing and should be fully supported by CCP.


Dat NEUTERING in the face. Arkanon must be new to forums ))

Mh...
As an employee of CCP you are not allowed to join a player corporation (at least that's what I heard) - will there be a change to this policy (for your project) as the trailer showed us the importance of player groups?
If not - this project will be interesting in showing how to live the life of a lone wolf.

For sure you'll be threatened not like other "real new players" - I'm unsure wheter you should go incognito or not.
But maybe that would suit CCP Rise or CCP Fozzie better.

Let's see what kind of impact you'll have on market speculations...
"CCP Falcon bought a huge stock of EMP S - there must be an upcoming devblog where they buff EMP S, we all need to buy now!"


Also, this is not true. CCP employees are not allowed to lead large nullsec corps, but they are free to join any corp they want. They aren't allowed to scam or suicide gank as well.

Pretty sure one of the pillars of EVE over the past 11 years is public neutering.

For sure, but there are ways of saying these things, Im very aware of "why" hes IA and why its of interest to him, you could say my corp got him his job :p.

Just doesnt need to **** on a colleague in public, could have said "IA are aware of this and will be monitoring it closely", bam, everyone is happy.

Falcon, I know it'd be a bit of extra effort but you should potentially look at transcoding clips and sections of this project onto a YouTube channel (maybe not the official CCP ran ones) so that new players interested can see a semi-Let's Play from a dev. Just an idea.

Way to miss the point completely.
