My only hope is that they don't repeat the DUST514 rollout. They can plan integration all day and all night, but I'd like them to make sure the game is solid on the merits before they start rolling the integration in.

Not to mention that CCP forgot that nobody gets credit for back-end work, so however technologically revolutionary the orbital bombardment feature is--and it certainly is--most people will judge it by its in-game effect, which does not even come close to justifying all the "revolutionary" hype.

I (genuinely and sincerely) wish them luck. CCP may fall short, but only because they are always trying to shoot the moon.



^^^^^

Same sentiment - CCP 'needs' to get it right!

Toyota does hold the 2nd place in the yearly worldwide car sales count, preceded by GM in the 1st place and followed by the VW Group in the 3rd. But that doesn't mean it makes better products than Audi. What it probably means is that its vehicles are generally a more acessible low cost option with better quality/cost ratio. Trust me, when it comes to quality and security, you wanna have your ass inside an Audi instead of a Toyota if you are ever unlucky enough to be involded in a car crash. Toyota does make good sports cars like the MR2 or the Supra, among others. But nothing that an Audi TT RS, an R8 or any other Audi Motorsport car cant compete with or even eat for breakfast.


Fair enough, but if you're going to bring in VW group then you prolly know that Lexus is the Luxury wing of Toyota and they make stupendous cars

New info! From CCP's CMO David Reid

Quote:
“Ultimately Valkyrie will become a fully-fledged member of the Eve universe, where all three games will share an economy and will have members in corporations engaging in combined arms operations.” Envisaging Dust mercenaries as armour and infantry units, Valkyrie pilots as the air forces controlling the skies and Eve pilots the interstellar navy, Reid foresees a massive shift in not just how people play Eve, but how the universe is perceived and joined. Reid and his colleagues are however under no illusions that just as Eve had endured its shares of tough times and Dust has for most of 2013 been on rocky terrain, there will be turbulence ahead for Valkyrie: “The lessons of Eve and Dust are clear to us. VR is a nascent technology and there aren’t many signposts to tell us when we’re doing things well or breaking new ground. We have to make sure we get this right - that is the first priority for Valkyrie. Then we sort the connection to the broader Eve universe. It will happen.“

Update on Valkyrie from CSM8!

*(Source: http://cdn1.eveonline.com/community/csm/CSM8_August_Summit_Minutes.pdf )

Highlights:

- CCP Unifex: There are so many potential growth areas in the EVE universe right now which
aren't necessarily areas where pod pilots are. These are areas they're looking at.
They're going to ship in 2014, which is soon, so they're concentrating on getting a game
out that *could* connect but it's not their focus right now

- They just wanna get the game out and get it playing. This connects to mobile-- "what
does CCP want to do with making original titles?". One of the connections you have to
think about is, are you involved in every second of time that passes in EVE? Because
that's significant.

- Each game has to stand on its own, but ultimately, they want it to be one unified thing
with different experiences, and people can choose which/how many of those
experiences they want. It does have to be a game meaningful and successful in its own
right if it's gonna bring people in.



Now that 2014 has arrived, lets hope it's not too long before we start seeing more detailed reveals!

We have the MOST complex, and I must say advanced, MMO on the planet and you're crying that an aspect of the game won't be on Tranquility? What are you doing?

Stop, take a deep breath, and think rationally! Dust was... Well, it blows me away that a platform game and an online MMO can talk to each other! Absolutely amazing what they've accomplished! What's to be sour about? Eve is wonderful! I started playing in 2008 and have seen amazing changes since then. Hell, I come back after a few years break and a lot of this is seemingly a whole new game in many ways.

If I were CCP, I'd stop taking into account all the whiners that seem to complain about just about everything CCP does. I'd ignore them, and I hope they are. They've made an awesome product. Chill out, give them a freakin break!

Trailer Trash and proud of it!

When the game is not tied to actual tranquility they can make it re-enact historical battles from EVE lore such as the battle of caldari prime or the beginnings of the minmatar rebellion.
Plenty of thigs that can be dome with Valkyrie when it's not tied directly to tranquility.

i'll add, just because its not tied to tq doesn;t mean it won;t be multiplayer. You could easily have it so players are connection to E:V and dog fighting and things without being a part of TQ. Thne when people are into doing that, you can add the mmo part.

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

Trolls aside - obviously recent posters did not go through the thread. If they had they would realize that CCP has said 'definitively' that they WILL be working on merging Valkyrie with EVE.
