Where have they ever said that?

You mean those things that can be (and are being) modified at will, and which are getting further attention with new mechanisms that will raise them?

…you know, showing that they haven't reached their limit?

What "facts" are inconvenient?
The fact that the capacity has gone up by leaps and bounds; that fleet fights are getting bigger and bigger with less and less lag and server issues; and the fact that in spite of the game already being miles ahead of what other games can provide, they're still working hard on making it able to do even more. You know, the facts that aren't some kind of excuses to show that the devs are “lazy” somehow, but which rather are… well… facts showing the exact opposite.

Sometimes "discussions" here are complex and involve lots of variables and motivations.

This isn't one of them.

This discussion boils down to "cup half empty" people with unrealistic expectations vs "cup half full" people who understand that "man, this is great, 2 years of slow motion something is much better than the previous 8 years of black screened nothing".

I honestly tend to despise the "half empty" people, modern life (including EVE, TiDi and all) is awesome.


The "cup half empty" people don't play EVE Online. They don't come onto the forums and offer their ideas and observations about how the game could be better, because that's a hopeful act. They certainly don't put forward the time and effort to write a blog about the things they do in the game, about the story they live out there. (Have you read the OP's blog? It's pretty good.)

A hopeless act of a "cup half empty" person would be throwing your hands up and just pointing to another time and place and saying, "Well, at least it isn't THAT bad.". I don't see anybody doing that here. Oh, wait . . .

Atleast you admitted to their nature being laziness (since that was what I originally said in the comment you quote) about choosing to stay single shard instead of working to revamp their entire platform. I'd rather have it unknown though but meh.


I remember nodes catching fire at 400 man fights.

What makes you think CCP have reached their limit?



Server cap limits when trying to enter a system.


I assume you mean jita which has had its cap raised several times and has been shown to be able to hold over 4000 people which is three times its normal load.

The only reason there is a cap is because people whined about TiDi. You honestly think we will see no more investment in the most powerful gaming servers on the planet?

It would be nice for the cap to be removed and Jita to be in perpetually heavy TiDi

Almost as good as not being able to enter a system. Because tidi is awesome right?

Even better actually. Don't have cap, don't TiDi, Jita would blackscreen and crash the node every now and then when too many people were in space in jita.

I like it when they scream flame on before they burst into flames and CCP Tuxford has to run into the room with a fire extinguisher.

Yea Jita can "diaf". Self imposed fire at that.
