To celebrate CCP being such a huge bunch of assholes I think I'll show them how I feel by not buying a PLEX and not paying a sub tomorrow.

I'll go play Perpetuum and I hope you guys will give it a go as well. Hopefully they may even employ some of the people that lost their jobs due to managements ignorance within CCP.

What is Perpetuum? It's a game where the developers looked at EvE and saw the flaws and planned around them in ways to make it fun for everybody without becoming a polarized PvP blob with infinite energy logi. It even has very fun industry. So go give it a try and see what CCP could integrate to make EvE good then tell them if they want you back that they should fix what is broken instead of firing people who fix the things that make them money.


This is my last post, you can't have my stuff because there is that slim chance that some day CCP may wake up and make EvE what it can be instead of telling us what it can't be.

So to get this straight -

1.) Players demand refocus on EvE, and demand that work on WoD be stopped.

2.) Disgruntled players encourage each other to unsubscribe and play Perpetuum instead as protest.

3.) CCP responds by refocusing on EvE, stopping work on WoD.

4.) Disgruntled players encourage each other to unsubscribe and play Perpetuum instead as protest.

Perp is a interesting concept, however lacks staying power. There is very little to actually do and very little depth. Though its too be expected in a new MMO. Give it about 1-2 years when they actually add in more content and it might be decent.

3.1 CCP does major corporate blunder by firing key PR personnel.

I am also into Aliens.

Ever since I saw that Alien burst out of that guys chest all I could think was that is so hot, I want one inside me. My parents were fine with it, until I showed them the movie and they found out he was Black.

Seriously...Derpmar/upper management should be the ones to get fired, not the WoD team, for completely ignoring the playerbase until critical mass was reached. However, since that obviously isn't going to happen, whatever it takes them to refocus back to EVE at this point is needed. Sucks for the guys getting fired, but if I were working at CCP, I would have been looking for alternate/backup employment during Monoclegate anyway.

As for Perpetuum, I tried it during Monoclegate, but unfortunately the graphical style is awful, and I cannot get into the setting. I like the space setting. After the Incarna screw up, CCP at least looks like they are trying to get back on the right track, and so I will support them for now. We'll see if they actually deliver, but returning ship spinning/removing WoD focus is a good start.
