Just a data point for you all: none of this week's devblogs were shown to the CSM in advance.

I'll be happy when more details emerge. Apparently, there were supposed to be some. Blink

In the meantime, a short cautionary tale, written a few days ago:
Triumph of the will

aka Jester, who apparently was once Deemed Worthy To Wield The Banhammer to good effect.

First, i do find this quote about someone who comitted suizide inapropriate.

Second, yes i am not happy with your PR. This is mainly because i loved this game for ages and i get the feeling that CCP is more and more a ship without a pilot and i get anxious that there will be no more eve at some point.
Don't be rude people, get constructive. There are more ways to show your disagreement.

You are the one speaking down about the dead here Thoth Rothschild. It is not a bad thing to remember war heroes that has passed.


Also, I find my alliance pilot to be quite solution oriented.

While superficially positive, and encouraging cautious optimism, I am considering this to be a place holder message while CCP nails down their short-mid term term plans. I heartily endorse the notion of promising what you can actually deliver.

Right now in a sinister conference room, arguments are being made that it should be spent on :awesome: flashiness and exploding planets.

Meanwhile, a plucky band of rebel developers champions a radical proposition -- that development should be refocused on fixing existing problems in the game. Stuff like POS's, the user interface, mining and manufacturing, Sov, and a host of other annoyances that plague the current community.


I would argue that UI overhauling can be both flashy AND address existing problems. Particularly if it involves tearing the existing corp/alliance management tools out of the code base and building a new system from the ground up.

Same goes for POS; a major revamp delivering better content AND slick visuals to go on the marketing. POS could look better and more impressive than they do atm.

horrible, bad, bad blog!

This inability to communicate of some CCPs blows my mind!



oh yes, I almost forgot: FIX WHAT IS BROKEN, THEN do new stuff

Our logs show nothing.


Really.....



No I don't see a devblog. I see a promise of a devblog and a promise to review past promises and fix broken ones.



This is not the blog we are looking for.

The words show promise so let's now see some substance.

Scientists reckon they may have made neutrinos go faster than the speed of light at CERN. In the light of the suddenly very weird and frightening world of mystery physics we now find ourselves in, your devblog disappoints me.

talk about a dev blog which says absolutely nothing new, on the 19th CCP released another dev post to link to THE EXACT SAME DEV BLOG that zulu links to and talks about here....

Content, this blog has none.

I've seen less hot air and empty promises in Jita local at the weekend

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

More devblogs that havn't been run by the CSM Roll

How about putting your head together with them and deciding on some decent iterations that the game desperately needs. For example an announcement on a reworking of something gritty and nasty like POS mechanics might actually capture my attention.
