The more switch over, the more I think there's goon style infiltration going on. In a few years, executive levels will be infiltrated and suddenly Riot will merge with CCP.

Riot games is backed by a Chinese holding company with deep enough pockets to buy countries.

It's no surprise that they can poach whoever they want from smaller guys like CCP.

Or Navigator is just one of Explorer's many alts ;)

CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.

Either 15-20 CCP employees have moved to Riot Games, or I've seen this same thread at least 6 times in the last 9 months.

Who put the goat in there?

CM's are basically forum moderator's no? It seems like it is probably a miserable job dealing with trolls and spam all day long and I'm going to bet it pays pretty poorly.

Though I can't imagine going from this community to the LoL community is a step up.

When you lament the transition of CCP employees and actually follow them around, then you are losing touch with reality.

EVE is a GAME.

"CCP (enter name here)" is an employee.

There is life outside of EVE but it seems for many, EVE is your life. That is not healthy.

The only thing that should be surprising is how long people stay at CCP. Programmers change jobs, a lot. Before I started working for myself I changed jobs every 2 years. Sometimes for money and sometimes just for something new.

Definitely, that would be epic, and in true EVE style. Big smile

Its a hostile take over of Riot 1 developer at a time.

Does this mean Riot Games pay better than CCP?




prolly just means Riot's development process isn't as archaic as CCP's process
