When will supercarriers and carriers be buffed in size ? They are way too small consudering the fact that you can store up to 4 battleships in them.

Will supers ever again be able to use normal drones ? Would be ok if it were to be only 5 of them but to have a carrier completely without any drones seems more then odd to me.

1. Will there by any focus on small gang pvp to force more conflicts outside of the big wars and structure grind?

2. Now when TE modules and speed of popular tier 3 bc gets nerfed, big gangs will have more of a upper hand. Will there be something in place to "compensate"?

When will we see progress on the modular LEGO POS idea?

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

How is the community web page improvement progression going?

When will the wiki get its needed update?

Will there be video casts after fan fest when you can actually talk about what is coming and give up to date answers to players questions?

Dev posts on the forums have dropped off again except for two or three devs. What are you going to do to increase the communication level again?

Will we get game stats again soon?

CSM8 voting what went wrong?

Followup from the previous thread - the skill queue. Will this ever be extended? Or will we be able to set it via a mobile app in the near future?

I realize that you guys want people to log in every now and then but if certain people are only logging in to set skills, what are you losing? The problem there is that those people need something to do in game, not to be forced to log in every time a skill finishes to pad your PCU count.

I am asking on behalf of those of us that have jobs that require us to be away from home, the internet, and actual computers that can run Eve Online (a spaceship game). Pretty much everyone that is deployed in the military, working on a ship or an oil rig or otherwise working overseas in less than stellar places have this issue.

Getting family members to log in and set queues is not only impractical, but also violates the EULA.

Torfi is awesome, I will forever remember his joke at one of the fanfests about how every time he should come with a warning that his crazy ideas may never come to EVE, or something like that.
I love hearing him speak about the EVE universe and his vision for it, always dark, cruel and compelling.

/me end fanboi mode

*Edit* Might as well ask a question...

When can we have more WIS? There are still many of us who love the ideas and opportunities it creates and would like to see EVE expanded both gameplay and lore wise with WIS.

What are the plans for avatar based game-play? Common areas? Establishments? Wreck diving? Releasing already created clothing assets? Anything? Is it still your vision that Eve Online is to be a complete Sci Fi simulation including avatars walking?

+1 that. Also, what about portrait/avatar customization?

In what ways have you found the CSM useful in the past year, and how do you see their role expanding during CSM8's term?

How convoluted is the current Overview legacy code?
have any devs personally observed the famed overview bug?
Are we going to see iterations on the overview code other than cosmetic UI changes?


what is CCP's end goal or preferred direction to making capital and supercapital warfare more interesting?
(how do you want to iterate on it?)

At this point many of us love the idea of the fixes, but it's time for the oh god feature to come back in play for a but with new content for us all to enjoy. Keep doing the fixing in small parts but in the bigger picture we need newer stuff.

So my question is when will we see something new and not redone?

do you ever talk about getting "small scale" pvp to a priority on nullsec versus the blob/coalition pvp way?

Answer will be: "CSM has been incredibly useful, and everyone on CSM has been great, except for Hans Jagerblitzen, who is a total spergelord"... Twisted

+1 I also wanted to post a suggestion on supercapital and bridge balance.
Could we instead of the bridge mechanic get some sort of docking option on supercaps?
Increase the size of fighters/bombers and get fleet to choose if they want to get a support fleet with them or a bunch of drones.
Meaning you can jump with fighters/bombers OR a support fleet.
People wouldn't bridge blobs just anywhere because they would risk loosing a SC, also the Mothership would finally earn it's name.

+1 AND can we see poses above districts, maybe even limited in size as a orbital defence / customs platform.

I would be very happy if we could at least squeze in some changes suggested in the "What to do with the panels in Quarters" topic.
Watching tournaments on those would be epic, and don't forget about corp news.

1. UI improvements. Specifically around drones and the d-scanner. Any improvements planned in the short term?

2. Are there short term plans to add WIS play to EVE? We have these cool looking avatars and CQs and I would love to have more play options around them.

Keep in mind that these are the high level decision makers and visionaries, they won't necessarily be the best people to answer questions on percentage bonuses of specific ships wheras they will be able to share their mad visions for the future of EVE more likely :)

Are you happy with the new player experience as it is? If not, what's your vision for it?
