Dorian, you're just being obstinate.

Surely even you can see that 2+ years to get to where WiS is now is a massive failure. Hell, the bloody CEO has admitted as much.

Yes, it takes years to develop a new game. But Incarna is not a game, it's a graphical demo with no actual gameplay beyond walking around a single closed room..

thats not corrects sorry. Incarna uses a in-house graphics engine and building one IS expensive. It is even so expensive that WIS alone could never justify the investment.

(-> no WOD no WIS)

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

4) Captain's Quarters. You've been working on WiS for how many years now, and this is the best you can come up with? I'm truly disappointed.

6) Eve is the only MMO I've played or ever heard of where I can walk away for 2+ years and come back and go right back to what I was doing like I was never gone.


those two things!

I canceled right before Incarca came out because it was the worst excuse for an expansion I've ever seen.

and yep I'm right back where I was.... turns out that was spinning ships and forum posting :<

WB, I came back for Crucible too. Still looking for my EVE epic moment.

Saw the T3 DPS/ EHP saw Winmatar won the Scan res contest, stopped there.

Still can't have all my accounts in one CQ. Was a sad Panda Sad

Bought a whole bunch of stuffs in Jita, made 3 billion when they launched Crucible. Was a happy Panda Big smile

Massive expense leading to substantial complaints from players and the firing of many employees while contributing nothing to the game is a failure. No matter how you slice it, CCP management ****** up terribly. From every perspective, management, innovation, marketing, and design, the company failed. I do give them credit for trying desperately to rectify these failures. So far so good, keep working CCP - your life depends on it.
