What you expect, ccps trailers are BS and so are the notes and everything else... they likely saw the troll vid of what it COULD be... and are like... O ****... this EXP sucks balls like almost every other one.

They all sucked only two of them were useful at all!

I thought that was for the winter expansion or even further down the track.


Yeah, that was the Winter 2012 expansion.


So now we are complaining that CCP wants to make only one big expansion a year, with a smaller expansion in the summer?

I thought everyone was mad at CCP for making two big expansions a year and not delivering? didn't we fight to get just one large expansion a year? Most mmos only one expansion every 2-3 years, I'm ok with only 1 expansion of content every year. I try to consider each other expansion a fun extra bag of bug fixes and balancing.

yes you hear me, i WANT A BALANCE EXPANSION ONE A YEAR, followed by a large feature expansion, which will have a whole year of work into the planning instead of 6 months.

I know most features are being worked on for 2 years, but they usually only choose which features should be ready and polished 4-6 months in advance. By planning out 9-12 months in advance we'll get bigger, less buggy expansions. Which monthly patches of work they finish that is balance or seeding related.

IN other words if Inferno only has war dec changes, missles, and new minmatar and ammar V3d, that would be enough. I'm happy they won't rush out a bunch of unfinished content anymore.

I'd even be happy if eve only had 1 expansion every 2 years, with balancing and tweak only in the meantime, with a giant 2 years of work expansion, massive addition to the game.

I've watched several fanfests over the years and many (if not most) of the concepts the devs talk about there never make it into the game (fleet formations, player-owned establisments, atmospheric flight, comet mining, etc etc)

Adding to that... worthwhile PI, with libraries creating skill books, actual PvP with your neighbors, pollution, population control, yeah it was going to be freaking awesome = click-click-click. Only excitement you have now is when you PI in low or null.

So I agree, I believe it when it hits TQ.


Don't forget, all of this for is for the Dust154 beta. IT's going to interact with eve directly. That's a HUGE feature, even it has been made mostly by a different team other than eve online. The new PI system is usable in DUST on the PS3, from what it sounds like they are mostly throw away the current PI system.

Which was a terrible idea in the 1st place. Making a feature 2-3 years before the other half is released.... we all knew it was going to get the axe when dust came out. And that's a good thing. Weneed population control, and land to fight over.

How can you have conflict if as many players as possible can be building on a planet?

We got shiny new Noob ships.

You thought they did that for no reason at all?

WarDec Overhaul - This is big for eve and will change the empire experience for sure. No more dec shields - can demand ransoms via the mechanic - can hire merc corps to defend via the mechanic - penalty charge and extra long timer to drop corp during war plus it's on your characters record - cost of dec based on size of target in terms of pilots

Crimewatch - New aggression mechanics game-wide. Can turn in officer and commander tags to up your sec status (from -10 to +5) - 2 levels of high sec crime: misdemeanors (anyone can shoot you but no police or CONCORD) and felon (CONCORDDOKKEN). Can flippers and looters flagged as misdemeanors now.

These are radical (for CCP) changes that haven't been touched really since this game was made. I think it's going to give the game a much needed shakeup... I mean these are foundational mechanics of the game!


They better follow through with the misdemeanors. The tears it will create will be glorious

i made my first 500mil selling faction loot off pirates who were camping YMP<-->Kari bridge..... three weeks after the above.

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

Actual features, afaik:

· Wardec revamp.
· Corp and personal history revamp
· Missile graphics revamp.
· Crimewatch revamp.
· Amarr / Mintmatar V3
· Mining made meaningful

…and maybe some of the UI revamp as well (unified item management and all that).

CCP dun tricked us again. Promising a war themed expansion and then focusing 100% on minerals. It still a war expansion, just a war on rocks. Sad face.

Blizzard said it themselves, customizable addons was the worst thing they ever done because its forcing players that 'addons' are required to play the game and that those with addons will always have an advantage over those who don't.


Who said that?

Was it the team that made WoW a game with millions of subscribers?

Or was it the team which put a gun to the cash cow's head and pulled the trigger?

If it's the group that though Giant Talking Pandas were a great idea... then you need to pay more attention to who you are listening to.

While I am appalled at the OP's badpoasting I do agree Inferno seems to be the sorriest excuse yet for an actual "expansion" and hardly even qualifies for a +.1 to Crucible's current version. The list of features are by and large a list of gameplay tweaks and feature removals.

At the current speed , Eve needs at least three more bugfixing/balancing expansions after neglecting the game for almost three years.

They could just speed up the process by simply nerfing projectiles of course.
