On this third and final, thrilling weekend of the New Eden Open we would like to bring your questions to the Devs in the studio.

This weekend, along with the Dev commentators we will be bringing you some additional guests from CCP. Please post your questions here and we will bring as many as possible to our team in the studio.

Anything that you ever wanted to know about the tournament, questions about facial hair for CCP Dolan? Make up tips from CCP Fozzie? What happened to the fire beanie CCP Falcon used to wear? Or how to make the perfect faux-hawk from CCP Soundwave... ALL THESE AND MORE Twisted

Is this limited to questions about the tournament?

Nope, it doesn't have to be specifically related to the tournament but preferably something vaguely to do with internet space ships Big smile

Questions about the tournament may however be more relevant than what personal grooming products the commentators use, we will try to bring a good variety and a selection of the best questions to our guests.

I'm mainly trying to pin down what kind of questions are likely to get an actual answer, so both sides don't have to waste their time or get disapointed. Is there for example any point in asking about when some specific part of an obscure mechanic is going to get fixed or asking when CCP plans to implement realistic breast physics on our avatars or any additional WIS content? If the only likely answers are going to be "we don't know/I'm not responsible for it" or "LOL", I'd like to know, so I can ask something which might have a good chance of getting an useful answer.

With the new mining frigate in retribution it seems that CCP has not totally forgotton gas harvesting. When will they un-nerf this profession by making fullerite gas items compressable using the rorqual capital mining platform. pre has been comnpressable for years and yet in reality its actually easier to compress a gas?..

Well then...

Recently there were PLEX promotions whith give players a painted(with a new skin) Catalyst. I was wondering then what is you intention to do with the skins for ships. To make those ships a "collection" items or and item with a price that would be aveilable for "everyone" to fly and die in ?

Im curious about what they keep saying about cruise / torp changes and being able to hit smaller targets. With speed / sig radius / explosion velocity all going into how much damage a missile does to a target.... how exactly are they fixing the issue of larger missiles being able to do damage to smaller targets?

Keep in mind that we have a mixture of Community guys and EVE Game Designers in the studio, and that Retribution is just around the corner. Questions obviously outside of their areas are going to be pretty tricky to address.

If we have a guest who might be able to address your specific questions then we'll see what we can do as always.

I would like to know, since now that the CCP Dolan moustache has been removed, if it will be appearing in the NEX store as a purchasable in-game item that can be applied to any face, be it male or female '?

Thank you.

I'm interested in knowing what kind of long term plans you have for the music system or if you even have any? I know about the changes that come with retribution, so I'm mainly interested in hearing what you have planned for the future in the music/sound area.

Also, since you're implementing officer drones and modules in retribution, does this mean you're also planning to implement drone faction modules, implants and possibly even ships in order to make them equal to the other factions?

Whats the ETA on POS changes and will you nurf moon mining so bad that 0.0 isn't worth the additional logistics effort associated with running POS's at the moment.

All the attention to high sec and criminal flagging is futile, when will CCP give 0,0 their full attention and stop molly coddling the noobs.

I would like to know if there are any plans for for Deadspace/officer Large shield transporters (we already have Deadspace small and medium ones) and Deadspace/officer Trackinglinks?

I'm sure most people will not use them for PvP or something but they could be very nice for missions, Incursions and PLEX's.

are there any plans to build actual gambling in to the client, ie we havce seen somer blink and monocle madness and EOH formed by players, will this be limited to OOG and those with the technical skill to code such cool things or will ccp introduce an eve poker of their own?

Also, are you planning to introduce any secondary careers, like banking, in a real, trackable, legitimate perspective.

A lot of cosmos items are worse in all respects than even meta t1 items but are harder to obtain and expensive to build. Will they ever get rebalanced to reflect time and costs?

Based on the current success or lack thereof of the New Eden Open, will there be a future cash prize team centric pvp tournament?
