Hmm...

That is HIGHLY questionable. After all SOMER-gate and some questionable decisions I am not sure that these devs leaving is so bad...

Eve could use a change - the current direction is going in circles.
And the removal of the jukebox (jukebox-gate), that's a whole can of worms in and of itself. Hah! I hope that there are rules against listening to music as they work over there at Riot. *flings their worn Bee Gees albums out the window and kicks the door closed behind them*

I'm in it for the money

CCP Soundwave stole the jukebox source code before leaving, he is going to implement it in league of legends.

It's winter. It's Iceland. They're all in Florida right now, spending your money.

Wait until spring and they'll get back to work.

CCP lost a few faces, but they've also gained new ones.

CCP Mintchip, CCP Rise and CCP Fozzie...for an example.


There are probably more new faces in there, I just don't keep track on em Blink

Really? What rate is that?


If you can't be arsed to keep up with current events, don't post in a thread about them.
Navigator was the most recent BTW.

Some of the guys leaving have been with CCP for 7 years. It's fairly normal to move on after all that time. No panic required.

10 years making one game is long time in game development. No wonder some of them want try something else for a change...
ot to mention they get new experience on development methods since different corporations use different models...

We are Minmatar, Our ship are made of scraps, but look what our scraps can do...

If ship = x, and rats = y, solve for a

Lets see....

x-y = a
x = a-y

As long as there are nerds, neck beards, and other rejects from ~normal~ society, Eve will remain afloat. If Stevie SG can leave a few years back and the number of subscribers increased, then a few guys leaving should not be of concern...

...unless a few guys make you all hot and bothered, well whatever floats your boat!

Combine this with no future plans from CCP about Eve even being announced, failure to fix issues that have lasted for years, and CCP's recent "Cashout" policy of allowing everything for plex, and first dual, then triple char training.

What does this add up to?

Eve is a sinking boat, the rats are running, and those that are left are grabbing for whatever they can before the ship goes down.

So the question is:
How long before CCP announces the closure of the Eve online server?


Is riot making any cool space pew pew games ?

I certainly hope so.

Bad Posters are getting their threads locked at an alarming rate! Some of the oldest and most popular trolls have been banned, or simply just moved on.

Combine this with poor grammar, played out trolls that have lasted for years, and a general lack of interesting content.

What does this add up to?

Bad Posting is a sinking boat, the rats are running, and those that are left are grabbing for whatever they can before the ship goes down.

So the question is:
How long before Bad Posters stop posting?

Locked:

31. Rumor mongering is prohibited.

Rumor threads and posts which are based off no actual solid information and are designed to either troll or annoy other users will be locked and removed. These kinds of threads and posts are detrimental to the wellbeing and spirit of the EVE Online Community, and can create undue panic among forum users, as well as adding to the workload of our moderators.
