The EVE Community Spotlight series continues this time with a prime example of an activity organized and executed by the EVE Community for the EVE Community: real life player gatherings.

All over the world we can find player gatherings, small or big, established or new and everywhere the feedback shows how much fun these gatherings are where fellow pilots come together to discuss incredible stories from New Eden or just to have a good time over a beer or two. Now it is time to have a closer look at this wonderful world of player gatherings.

The sixth Spotlight is about EVE Vegas. Lights on!

EVE Vegas 2011 was awesome, you all should go to EVE Vegas in October since I hear it's looking to be even better.

First of all I think it's great that there are events like this. The more of them the better.

That said, it has been a month with only 2 "Community Spotlight" dev blogs and not a single post of substance.

What are you working on, when, why, how, etc. As evidenced by recent "completed items" input sooner than later is best.

[EDIT] removed off topic ranting [/EDIT]

Sorry for derailing your post. If you could please poke the other devs into posting I am sure we would all appreciate it.

Thanks!

People have been on summer vacations and we've been looking at the ideas we have for the coming months and prioritizing the ones we like best and think we can complete in time. So news of upcoming features will start to emerge as soon as the devs have had time to arrange more of the details. And we'll bring you In Development videos with more info about the future real soon too ;). Ttue there's been little news, but that will change.

Oh, and get a ticket to EVE Vegas! It'll be awesome.

If you cannot go to EVE Vegas (you totally should go though because it is a fantastic event), then maybe you can go to an event closer to you.

We have also the Veto meeting EVE London on September 29, 2012 in London, UK. Or you can go to the EVE DUST Summerfest EVE on a beach from September 14 to 16, 2012 in Loutraki, Greece.

Yeah, I meant more it's a matter of money and time, would absolutely love to got to Vegas but it's so far haha

I've been looking into the Veto meet, and I actually got some Eurobonus points I must use before the end of October so my flight to London would be free at least, but we will see what happends Smile

I d really like one day too visit all those events or the Fanfest (saving already 3 years for the next one). But everything is so much expensive for my country standards :(

The events like these just show how great of a community we have. Who knows we might one day arrange one for the Balkans.
Tough i might give a go for the Greece one. Its quite close and so should be lot cheaper.

How about prioritizing the ones we (the subscribers) would like best?

Fancy holding an EvE event in Vegas.

The place is full of scum, thieves, killers and such immoral behavior. How will EvE players manage to cope with that.

Honestly, sometimes CCP's "gifts" aren't always all that desirable and their recent track record for delivering awesome content and staying out of the sandbox (enabling great gaming) isn't very good.

CCP's customers are justified in asking for more customer-centric deliverables. It is CCP's choice to ignore or address those customer communications.

I'm probably a little late on this, but I just want to say that I did go to Eve Vegas last year, and I look forward to attending this year as well. Was a lot of fun, and last year, being the new player, I got to meet a lot of people who were willing to explain stuff to me if I didn't understand something; so the experience overall was just awesome! I am a Vegas local, so it works for me too Lol

Can't wait, and GJ on community spotlight *salutes*
