Nutshelled.

And here's the thing, I am NOT defending whether CCP have made the right decision about lack of FiS or Incarna (THEY thought it was, otherwise it wouldn't have been done duh.).

But I am getting really annoyed at the way SOME the "playerbase" is reacting to supposedly achieve an end.

And for mine, I reckon I've been here long enough (and I've walked on Earth long enough) to say I can find NO REASON why CCP would stonewall their customer base when their entire forward offerings RELY on Eve to survive.

There appears to a common theme that CCP is DELIBERATELY sabotaging their game. WHY on Earth would they do that???

What I see is that CCP has a grand design of bringing console gaming side by side to a PC environment.
WiS WILL be huge.
NeX WILL be huge.

The only ISSUE that I can see is the timing and methodology of deployment.

The fact that company resources NEED to be channelled into the grand design is obvious. Unless CCP go to the bank with cap in hand seeking unlimited funding to deploy and employ more resources to handle both FiS and Wis projects, then something has to be sacrificed in the short term. This is a commercial reality.

Which takes me back to this whole "protest crap" as coming from players with spolied brat syndrome. I want it yesterday and if you don't give it to me I'll scream. waaaaa

I've got kids. 7 of 'em. I just tell 'em to stfu. I got big picture to deal with. You're part of it, but you ain't the solution. Trust my judgement and you'll get everything you want, and more! Eventually.

And in my experience, only children have no concept of time, patience and big picture.


This has been the argument from the beginning, they know. This is an asshat campaign and has been from the start. Try not to waste too much of your energy debating with them because there is no reasoning with them. Your points, however valid, will only be ignored or trolled as being the views of a dev alt, etc. They like to claim they are having such a huge impact on the game but all I see when I log in are players going about their daily routines, enjoying the game. I'm sure they see that as well and it bothers them, hence the media attention as the players haven't revolted as they'd hoped.

You, too, can be a Solid Gold dancer.

THere is huge difference between the community getting together and telling CCP that a nerf or a mechanic change is going to do more damage then good.

It is a completely different story when the players ettempt to tell a company what their next expansion is going to be and if not the players are going to try and destroy the game all together.

This.

It's quite irritating to have a very self-entitled, obnoxious, and loud minority supposedly "representing" the majority of Eve players threatening and pretty much wrecking havoc every time CCP doesn't bend to their will. They really believe they not only have the right but ultimately the last say on how CCP spends the money they are "investing" in Eve.

And even more unfortunate is that as much noise and threats they make they never really seem to follow through with their empty promises of rage quit.
