Great changes!

I specifically like that there's a team working on sound. Hopefully they tweak the engine itself too, it needs some work Lol

I guess you haven't been to the corresponding discussion panel at this years fanfest where we heard of this new stuff - the sounds that were played were awesome.

Well, they oughta know what to do with them hogs out there for shure.

Would appreciate any efforts towards caption/subtitling the feature videos you guys put out. Seriously.

*Text the the important part e.g. when she introduces each team, it helps to caption/display the name onscreen for clarity (video producers ought to have paid attention to the whole context).
*English with a heavy accent makes it hard to follow whats being said. It's like trying to understand a pack of Scotsman when they're drinking Big smile

Great stuff, but I'm most excited about the new team dedicated to sound and music. Sound systems are currently in infantile state in EVE and I'm sure improving the situation is one of those little things, that few think about until they actually experience the improved sounds and dynamic music.

The video doesn't really have any useful content or new information, but I still love it because Ms. Ripley is cute and CCP Guard is just hilarious Lol

What makes you so sure it's a cinematic? That would be a bit clueless of CCP to tease us with a cinematic, wouldn't it? A bit like unwrapping a Wonderbra... Cry

Wait... I thought Unifex is senior producer? Anybody care to explain what the relationship between Ripley and Unifex is?


CCP Unifex is the senior producer of Eve Online and CCP Ripley is Senior producer of Release Development. Based on that I would guess that their relationship is thus:

CCP Unifex = top
CCP Ripley = bottom.

PS. Team Klang? Did I hear that right? Doesn't matter.. welcome aboard and throw us a dev blog already.

It's looking like it's gonna be a fun time after winter. Can't wait to buy lots of kill rights.
Great video. More please. I too would like that cinematic to become a "Hanger View". Please consider it for future developement.

When exactly did they talk about the new sound during fanfest 2012? Could anyone please post a link to that?

Awesome video CCP Big smile

One quick question though: It was said that you are currently working on a visual indicator for all timers in EVE. Does this include one for the automatic cloak that you get when jumping through a gate/wormhole?

Btw, @2:08 am I seeing some WASD activity going on there?

CCP Guard FTW, also nice to see CCP Ripley : D

Is that part of a future trailer?! Is that a new screensaver?!


Yes! I loved that bit too.

Overall a great little video dev blog. There's a lot going on here for Retribution, most of which is huge improvements on old parts of the game. THIS is the kind of stuff Eve so desperately needs right now and I'm glad to see it getting top priority.

Oh, and the hunting bit was hilarious. Gotta love CCP Guard!
