Opportunities Abound - The New Player Experience - Feedback
A new system to introduce players to the game mechanics and user interface of EVE Online is under development, it is called "Opportunities". This new system will be non-linear, gives new players much more freedom to discover EVE Online in their own pace and encourages them to actively look for opportunities. A first iteration is available on the test server very soon. We highly encourage you to test this new system and to provide us with feedback.

In Celebration Of CSM X! - Feedback
The Council of Stellar Management (CSM) is the player elected body that regularly discusses ideas on behalf of the player base with the developers and plays a significant role as consultant. Voting for CSM 10 begins February 25th and ends on March 10th! To celebrate the CSM and the community who fills the CSM with life, we also hand out to every active subscriber a Council Diplomatic Shuttle!

ISK seized from characters violating the EULA
Don't bot, RMT or violate the EULA in general. Those who did will suffer the consequences, such as ISK confiscation. CCP Peligro reveals that the confiscated ISK alone (not counting items) sums up to quite a couple trillion ISK.

With the emergence of numerous huge unidentified structures all over New Eden and the sudden appearance of ships of unknown origin, CONCORD decided to put his home fleet and DED on high alert.

CONCORD Assembly Lowers Alert Status as Capsuleer Encounters with "Drifters" Raise Questions
CONCORD has formally lowered its fleet alert status from 'High' with the authorization for maximum response to 'Ready to Deploy'. Following the uncloaking of countless unknown structures in New Eden, CONCORD and the empire fleets have raised their alert status in varying degrees. Caldari and Gallente fleets have been quite active, while the Minmatar Republic has increased readiness of their fleet. The Amarr Empire has responded in a muted way. Capsuleers were highly active, conducting investigations, trying to communicate and even attacking the new and unknown...

Thank you again for another look back, CCP Phantom!

You are fast!

For some reason one entry (CCP Falcon about CONCORD ship hulls) didn't make it in the original post, I have added the missing entry now.

Thanks for the headsup, I'll add it to my translation

If you want sold them a lot, make a Corp/Alliance Bar with some games (Like Chess, Checkers game ect)

CCP, plz, stop killing YOUR GAME.

Thank you for these updates, that Opportunities Abound is of particular interest for me.
