EVE General Discussion

Seen CCP Wrangler ask for this, and to me it seemed only fair.

We are watching CCP right now, and waiting for them to make their move and release their winter expansion. Obviously the expansion will not please everyone but if it pleases those that were displeased with the past three or four exps (like me), let us go to Jita and meet to rep the damn statue we wrecked this summer.. like one week after the release or something.... since we don't have a release date yet.


And before people decide to go all original and call me CCP alt, or posting something from a contrarian corner because "agreeing with an OP is too mainstream", be advised that i don't have no intention of repping no damned statue, because i am daring CCP to deliver. I don't think they will.


Prove me wrong and i'll rep your bloody statue alone if i have to.

Interesting idea.


But I need to know, have I missed something?

I've seen 1 Devblog about bringing back an old function(what hard work that must be) and changing text(oh I bet thats hard as well) and 1 that said nothing and looked like ****. I've also seen 1 day when CCP employees posted a lot on here and the MMORPG article that CCP was very quick to challenge because it said the winter expansion would be damn near what other companies would call an update.

Is that all? Because if that's it here's what we should worry about.

A company infamous for interpreting their statements in creative and often misleading ways has told us almost nothing and shown us 1 very easy fix to a problem they should have avoided entirely to begin with. When an article about the winter expansion came up they where quick to call it inaccurate(quicker than they are on petition responses) undoubtedly meaning it was claiming more than they intended on giving us. The article itself was hardly full of new features and the features within it definitely where not worthy of the word expansion, this is even worse because if they aren't delivering all of that small amount of stuff then it's barely ranking above a patch.

But have no fear we've been told that we will be surprised by the next expansion. Unfortunately they could not elaborate which means they don't know why we will be surprised but since they interpret what they say however they want and sometimes just lie and ignore us we can be pretty damn sure it's going to be like surprise! we are converting EvE to WOD entirely so we can watch you be emo about it and say "working as intended".

So unless I've missed something that is making all of you guys feel some hope then I hope some of you read this and realize what's going on.


*Also I totally intend on continuing to play EvE but my post represents how I want to play EvE for more than just until 2 years from now when they've chased everybody away by being complete assholes.

Damn you beat me to it.

O.K. you've proven your IQ is above 70 but still not over 100, I'm saying they are full of **** and calling them liars. Sorry to spoil the defining pattern recognition moment of your life.

If you've never tried telling somebody it's going to be a surprise when asked a question you do not know the answer to you really need to get some friends.

So your definition of a friend is someone that you lie to? And you're calling bullshit on CCP?



At any rate....

2 months ago CCP was all "No, Incarna will not be optional and you will not get the old station hangar back in the shape and form you used to know, because we think that sucks and we don't want you using it anymore" and "Old turret icons suck and old cyno suck so here are some new ones. Yes we heard you when you said these suck even worse but you're wrong we like the new bling and so should you".

So you see its not that they are just returning features, its that they have changed their attitude. They have acknowlodged that removing those was a mistake, and that's not something CCP does. Doesn't fit their MO. So that makes us wonder what else they will do that doesnt fit their MO. Like doing more stuff that we have asked for, perhaps?

Perhaps they stopped seeing their playerbase as clueless trolls, and started to see them as real-life graduated economists, businessmen, designers, IT managers, programmers, lawyers and people who might just know what the hell it is that they are blabbering about?!


Nah, i don't think so. So this time, for a change, i'm going to expect **** and hope that they prove me wrong, instead of the other way around. Why? Because they always prove me wrong.

Dude. Thx for the 70 rating. According to another expert I was less than 20 last week. Must have levelled up.

It also received no physical damage when 700 people shot lasers at it. The damage is emotional.

The statue is still a wreck after what we've done to it.

fixed that for you

and for the record, I think continued subbing is plenty of reps, no emo guilt trip public displays needed.
if you are into that stuff might I suggest going to a Powwow or Native American tribal conference, they love guilt-ridden white men

Physically small, nope - but intellectually stunted people who want to repair "emotional damage" done to the pixelated image of a statue in a video game? Take a guess.

wait, you make a completely emo thread about how we need to repair "emotional damage" and now you want to take the highground?

gtfo, and gtfu.
