EVE General Discussion

Well we will get one thing in winter...

... more tears.

I think I'm the last person I expected to be talking about the company values - don't get me wrong, something like that was needed when CCP was growing by 200 people per year, but having two degrees in Philosophy, those types of words always make me cringe.

That being said, being fearless shouldn't mean that one is reckless. Innovation is being done, sometimes it just takes time. I have no idea about putting other projects at risk and staying a course that most, if not all, agree is not the right one should be called reckless.

What we in Iceland get in winter is usually snow... (yeah, I know, bad post). You should "watch some space" to get more information - when, I cannot say as I'm not the one writhing the stuff up.

Actually its good that senior management has changed course at least in word. We'll actually see what they do. I don't like the rebalancing it just ensures more rebalancing as there are always unforeseen consequences. Better to create new weapons and defenses just like real military would do.

Truth is whoever rolled out the CQ in its present form made about the biggest marketing blunder you can do. The people that might of come and stayed because of WiS tried it and left, it'll be harder to get them to try it again. They should never have rolled it out until you could interact with others, but they needed to alpha test it for WoD, so they pushed it out thinking all would be well but in the last 2 years much of the love once held for the devs I've seen erode. Changing course might well fix it.

CCP has earned at least some respect back at least from me, for actually somewhat admitting that things aren't going well development wise and plan on making a change. Most companies won't subdue to that type of humility until its too late. However words are just words, they don't mean much in the end. Its what CCP does that counts in the end, and we will see if that happens.

Taking a step back from things like NeX and holding off on going all out on Incarna is good. Since NeX for the most part is useless until the multi player aspect of Incarna is implemented, and Incarna itself seems rushed and needs a lot of fine tuning. Not to mention the multitude of issues that are plagueing the core aspect of the game.

Millia in derivative obvious whine troll thread shocker. Don't watch this space :eyeroll:

Reckless eh?

That means we DID hit that metric that makes WoD an issue :)

And especially pay for it.

When I watched "this space" this played in my mind.

Ooh ooh

We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but
You're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)
(Ooh)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)

We've know each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but

Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye

Wait Dust..................... ok Buy a PS£ and buy Dust514 aka Winner

Basicly u are saying this:

It is not normal to talk about company values as a ccp employee

It should be normal when ccp was growing by 200 ppl a year but somehow u guys forgot your company values

due your philosophy deegree it made u cringe, i can conclude from this that ccp is a strong top down organazation

U say ccp´s current course of action is fearless but not reckless, (pretty reckless to me though)

Innovation is being done and it takes time, nice clothes innovation though im sure it is time well spend

ccp general employee thoughts is that only a course that is wrong and u stick with it is reckless, thus saying the incarna patch is still a good thing despite all player reactions (i bet the top down organazation has something to do with this)

In the winter u get usualy snow so we should all play eve so we can see the new changes (what if we dont like it, guesss we HAVE TOO play the game to see)

So from all said, i can conclude that ccp finds there course fearless and not reckless. Its a organisational mess at ccp because they have grown so fast. (prolly cause small poject mangement only works in small companies, so ccp actualy outgrown themselves). This is also a vision on the upper mangement team way of fuctioning (not well). Too many communication lines, i bet the must have meetings everyday. Elmucho meetings Elnjeta eve play

Should i go for a pshycologie degree?
