EVE General Discussion

Once again CCP are following the exact pattern to their past "mistakes".

Once the media has caught wind of this story, CCP run off to the media first and give some sorry and lame excuse about current issues, leaving their customers, the Eve community still in the dark.

How pathetic.

CCP has not learned, or even care about their past "escapades" and the Eve community.

Thanks CCP for ******* on your customers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To The CSM,

Please remember, you do not represent CCP to the Eve community. You actually represent the the Eve community to CCP

As such, please do, for what you were voted for. Or are you also in it for the free stuff?

Am I angry? Dam right I am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CCP stop this favouritism, and please give the community a response to this issue, soon.

…and it's still as useless and :ccp: an answer as ever, completely missing the point of the concerns people have.

CCP missing the point and being entirely clueless on their own game.


THAT NEVER HAPPENS!

10 years playing this game.

10 years working hard to earn my isk so I can buy and sell on what I thought was a level playing field.

I remember when we all started talking about all the cool things they could/would do with unique ship skins


...this CCP company, it's like they WANT me to leave them.
They acively undermine what it is we are supposed to like about this game at every turn.

We could have separate LP markets across even spitting out unique ship skins.
We could have a department at CCP that does events that gives these things out.

But no... we have this stupid crap. "here website that runs what is probably a scam, have a half trillion isk worth of stuff"

And to the rest of us that aren't "in the club?" , we should just shut up and pay our subs.

//Oh !!
//and dont' forget to go to scamblink and buy some tickets for blah blah blah !!!

I am becoming more sanguine about this debacle with every passing hour.

Anyone who reads my posts knows that I am accused of tin-foil hattery on a regular basis when I comment about the probability of favouritism by the devs toward certain in-game groups. Most of my posts flag the potential of it, to keep it in the public eye. For that , I am constantly hammered with ridicule.

Well, stuff like this validates my points, which is nice.

But on the other hand, it now seems given that 300 billion ISK handouts seem to be an ongoing thing, are not that uncommon, and meant to be kept secret. It leads me to believe that the concept of a level playing field maintained with the structure of the game is something that not even upper management at CCP pays lip service to.

A sandbox, where everyone has equal opportunity, it clearly put to the lie with these actions. These are not valueless items, since they command in excess of 10 billion each on the open market. 10 billion ISK can alter many a small war, which makes the game rigged.

So for someone like me, trying to fight the good fight in a game supposedly NOT rigged, to say that CCP's actions are disheartening, is an understatement. But it is also liberating, to know that any attempt by any forum poster to suggest that anyone can rise to the upper echelons of the player pyramid is just a complete fabrication, and something I don't have to bristle with righteous anger over anymore.

When the goons and I are on the same side regarding dev favouritism and altering the balance of power in the game (even in a small way), there is something seriously wrong with Eve.

30 somewhat-inferior Scorpion variants that CCP never promised as capped in numbers has altered the balance of the game?

Pfftt. Pull the other one - it's got bells on.

apparently it doesn't matter even if it's true

1 tritanium

if I had 0.5% of that I would finally be able to fund my pvp adventures

see where the problem is ?

If you want .5% of that, go out and do something to make CCP want to gift you. IOW, you have to WORK for these things, not just wish for 'em.
