Did anyone ask Hi-sec questions or perhaps WH ones in this thread or the other one, before this meeting happened?

Not that I am aware of most of the questions are on Jesters blog as things he wanted to ask.

Actually looking through this thread most of the questions are on Null and lo-sec.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

really should have been done as a video steam tbh. Could not tell who was talking


this would have been very hard to do ... unless you want to pay to fly everyone together and accommodation etc????


Don't be daft. Easily could have done skype video conferencing and streamed it via Owned TV. Something like this

Don't be a jerk. No need to be mean to the guy that spent a lot of his free time setting this up for us. #whiteknight P

This entire concept is still new and we learn something new about how to improve it every time we do it. As for using Skype's video conferencing, I'll look into it and see how viable it is for everyone. In terms of file size to DL, encoding, etc... these are things we'd have to look into. I don't have an issue with doing it like this if we can make it work. v0v

There is actually quite a bit of information on this in the Minutes. What are you wondering about?

What does CSM feel about the lack of features for winter?


Until CCP finishes Release Planning for the winter expansion, we can't answer that because we don't know exactly what features will be in the expansion. That is just the simple truth; anything that takes place before even CCP has their plans in stone is just speculation.

Release planning takes place in mid to late August after all the summer vacations are over. It usually takes place on a Monday and may spill over into Tuesday. After that, the teams go into their sprints and start working forward. For this expansion, the CSM will have unprecedented information flow with regard to what is happening sprint to sprint. Additionally, CCP will be taking the CSM's Stakeholder status to the next level, as was covered in the minutes. Once we have a clearer picture on how it's going to work and what we can say about it, we will let people know. Smile

telling him to "not be daft" was not being mean. It was more of a "don't be silly" commentPP

but ya, def. look into it please. It will give a way more serious "vibe" to it and probably double the amount of people tuning in. Will also make it much more easier for the listeners to tell who is speaking so they know how their representatives are representing the player base

Not that I received. The agenda we covered before we went to the more freeform Q&A included all the questions I'd received up to the start of the town hall.

But remember - this isn't because high sec is being ignored in any way. If you actually look at what CCP is working on these days, it probably ranks Highsec > lowsec > 0.0 > WH stuff (depending on how you look at each thing they work on). CCP isn't really developing with regions of space as a focus. They're focusing on game play features - such as mining in general, POS stuff in general, combat mechanics in general. So understandably, many players feel that their particular region of space isn't being tackled as a whole.

The reason you hear so many questions about 0.0 is because a lot of players are frustrated by the fact that 0.0 hasn't been truly worked on for a long time now in lieu of the more highsec-type stuff like wardecs, crimewatch, mining, new player experience. etc.

I mostly thought they whined about 0.0 and maybe low sec, because they suck (those areas do). But I usually view them as all dickss, so I am pretty happy about the state of it. There are problems, but if they were fixed it would quickly become overpowered. Much like in hi-sec if there were more research or other slots, hi-sec would be too overpowered. So overpowered and people being dickss, keep me from really supporting a null sec buff, or expansion.

Since the CSM seem to be responding in this thread now.

Any chance of comments on my concerns from page 2? (pref. together with the related ones raised by Malcanis in the duplicate over on Jita park).

That side of the minutes (and my concerns are raised in response to the minutes, or shall we say abscence from those topics in the minutes) gained little attention during the Town-hall. It doesn't have to be me concerns in particular, just that side of the discussion - it felt like it got swept under the rug because it's a critical and not as easily digested topic with straight questions.

On top of that, what do we have to look forward to for the Winter expansion now? In gameplay-related news. It's not veiled complaint. I'm genuinely interested in what kind of gameplay-affecting changes or content we can expect (akin, yet not limited to, the things i brought up as the "3 big" in my prior post: Ships in space, and [in space-] player-POS interaction). Is there anything like that comming with the winter expansion? Seeing as how it was largely abscent from Inferno.

No one asked them any questions on Hi-sec

You forgot faction warfare at the end.

It is kind of funny though, how bad low and null are, but it is so hard to help out.

Faction warfare was getting pretty bad as well, but got a buffed. Which is a good thing, but it is still strange those places are tough to buff.

Also is their any new news from the null space project by CCP soundwave, or did that get scrapped?

In the past there was that push for spooling a cyno beacon

Has the idea of a reasonably weak ship t2 destroyer type the could prevent cyno beacon to be launched on grid,

Requiring a force to jump into system off grid and warp to a targe instead of just jumping at desired point. Thes would cause slower ship to Arrive later at the fight than the frigates


Or is not the main complaint about jump bridging in?

This new ship would be a counter vs a nerd to cynos

Someday I will have the time to play. For now it is mining afk in High sec. In Cheap ships
