You Can't Spell "ConsPiraCy" without "CCP"

Remember when they came out with the Dominion trailer? Remember how it was the English-speakers vs. the funny accents guys in the beginning?

Remember how the Russians came in with their supercaps at the end and owned everything?

Yeah, it's a CCP conspiracy. They knew from the get-go that the Russians were going to build the largest super fleet and just rapeface any group in their way with overwhelming firepower. They knew that supers were going to become the trumpcard/endgame/swiss army knife of the game. They knew the game was going to die and so they decided to kill it off in a spectacular fashion filled with tears and Machiavellian drama.

They knew. They planned it this way.



...



If you believe any of this you're an idiot. But that's not the point of this thread. The point of this thread is, CCP is not going to get their balancing changes right this winter, and they're going to leave it that way for another 2 years before doing anything. Because that's what an :excellent: :iteration: is. Just look back at this thread in :18 months: and see if I've lied to you.

CCP mostly sucks at their job, but Veritas is a pretty cool dude.

btw OP I've got this screenshot of prob you, took it ages ago pre incarna and noticed it taking useless hdd up. you can have it.

we've known about lag for years. You should shake a magic 8-ball and that'll give you a better concise answer than CCP will reply about a fix.

Is it coincidence that the former Soviet Union was known by the acronym CCCP (Сою́з Сове́тских Социалисти́ческих Респу́блик)? Blink

Yeeee!

Fun Fact: In the trailer they say: "Target that supercarrier", but this was while they were still known as Motherships.

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

At least they depicted the carrier getting repped going down in seconds correctly.

Maybe.

I am just wondering how long till the drone regions are made like all the others.

With system upgrades there really is no reason for drones to drop minerals anymore.
Maybe they should just give ISK rewards now like the rest of EVE.

I did find it humorous when I was watching those a few weeks back then saw that and thought of all the crap that just went down.

Also worth noting, you can't spell "Fix Lag" without "F A G".
