EVE General Discussion

It's dead, Jim.

It uses tech that CCP wasted millions on trying to create a vampire game for teenaged girls. There probably aren't even any devs at CCP who know how it works anymore. Enjoy your captain's quarters. That's all you're going to get.

About 80% probability that the poster above is right.

Forget about WiS, in any case it won't be around until most of the current Eve players have moved on.

I like staring at myself in the CQ mirror while eating bacon.

not really. Most of the summer of rage had nothing to do with incarnia.

It had to do with the other three factors plus incarnia. Players got more mad that time was wasted and we were lied to,

CCP coudl easily do more wiht WiS, and that code they wasted millions on is not just thrown away, its just not being worked on.

I think there will be stuff with the CQ coming in the future, unless ccp has again changed gears on the all eve on pc thing

Now YOU are a real sunshine, aren't you?

I love Captains Quarters.

That's more or less what he said right there, you are agreeing with him.
Really to define it, they quit working on EVE for months and months and months and months and months to develop Carbon so they can market a new magic bullet for other developers to license - and to make WoD with it as well (which was a total failure). EVE was left to rot, broken, for a very long time, only to reveal some broken catwalk system. I don't think they ever managed to license Carbon out to anyone either.

Ontop of that, "greed is good" was exposed along with the crazy microtransaction pricing on barbie doll apparel (monoclegate), for a game we already paid for and still pay by subscription, even if spaceships were just left to rot. I canceled my sub for I think 8mos not sure if I'd ever come back. Didn't until they started fixing the space ship game anyway.

All the "we want WiS" griping after all this time is still amusing though, keep up the good work
It's not even a "back burner" project, that team was disbanded long ago, CCP has restructured. Maybe you should be looking into SC Online if you are still so upset? hehehaha

edit: oh and just to mention, the new/restructured CCP has done a good job with Carbon, improving the space ship part of the game over the years. Still lots to do, but would not even be close to where they are at today if WiS had continued. Likely CCP would have closed down years ago.

Oh another edit: About that crossed out part, simply view all the CCP videos over just the past couple years, you just won't get that impression at all. That's sooo not what they are doing, and you should know that, Bro. It's about interaction now, from other games interacting into New Eden. Dust was the first - yes sadly an f2p game on a dieing console, though at least outside funded. Then other games to come, but they know better now to not mess with the spaceship game but to keep improving it. They will only maintain WiS, not build on it, more or less just a platform to launch into these other games. Lots of vids to watch, get cracking.

Came back to see Kate update pictures. Sadly no links or in game mails.

Now i have to comment on this again...something something....WiS where you could sit on couch with a neighbor and watch the wanted members of eve update...something promiscuous Kate.

CCP had no intention to license off their engine. They explicitely stated so.

Simple google for "carbon engine license ccp" shows any claim of contrary is wrong.

Poor code design if this is the case.
Disregarding the user interface it is almost a separate game. The code should reflex that. Calling upon the exact same libraries and not having two sets creates the work that you speak of.
Apart the CQ can remain unchanged indefinately.
