This is why we're locked into a room, with no social interaction. We're supposed to be angry, bitter, hate, and hopefully go AFK or log off to reduce the load on the server.

Had WIS actually happened instead of captains closet I wouldn't have had much time for walking around stations on the promenade. I did have an idea for opening up casions in major trade hub stations sockets to try to generate some passive income though.

Considering how popular gambling is these days it could have been a decent isk sink if there were npc owned sockets.

WIS would have taken another company's worth of people to produce it and still maintain the current focus they have on FiS.
CCP only had enough people for FIS or WIS and quite frankly there was to much in FIS that needed fixing and iteration for them to radically alter there focus to WIS. Maybe one day CCP will grow to the size where they could produce both sides of the game FIS and WIS.

For now the current focus on FIS is what they need to rebuild/grow there business.

Fis is what were known for any ways.

Noir. and Noir Academy are recruiting apply at www.noirmercs.com I Noir Academy: 60 days old must be able to fly at least one tech II frigate. I Noir. Recruits: 4:1 k/d ratio and can fly tech II cruisers.

Serious question: why are you not doing these things in Second Life or some other such 'social gameplay' environment?


Because I want to play with spaceships too. Why can't I do both? I have friends in this game, I don't have friends who play WoW or Second Life.

I like to play pinball.

Feel free to do just that. I won't mind. (See? Slightly angry.)

Whether or not you win the game matters not.  It's if you bought it.

This blog must be epic in size if they are taking this long to polish it.

Hopefully they have come to their senses are are going to open the
door and use they assets which we know already exist.

I don't even care if it's an "enter at your own risk" senerio whereas it's
accepted to be a test area for those who wish to try it out and offer
feedback.

You know, this brings up an interesting point. They could just toss whatever they have ready out on SiSi and keep it there, upgrading it as they are able, until the playerbase agrees that it's ready for deployment to TQ.

Isn't that what Duality was originally for?

Although alot of the assets are done, its not clear if there is enough done to have a system that works at any level. Additional effort would be needed, and we do not know how much, and if re-assigning Devs to get us something that works (and QA to insure it does not have any unintended consequences) would cause a major delay in getting a good WiS expansion in place.

But if its not too much effort, I would like to see that door open too.

Yeah ... no ... EVE is way more than just another PvP game but in space.

Key words: single-shard, sandbox, simulator, science fiction

Might not be able to make "the ultimate science fiction simulator" just yet, but it's important than we do what we can to get there.

Deleting the NeX store, however ... now there's an idea.

Yep, there is tech like that for the Dustbunnies. They could always make it in lore that the capseleers switched to the newer tech or something. So the getting shanked and losing your clone part is kinda a moot point.
