If CCP is going to do any side projects, I would rather they just continue to focus on Dust 514, bring that to PS4 and PC already. At least a PC version is semi-happening. Valkyrie is a cool idea really, just the VR thing kills it for me, i'm not buying a VR headset. The system requires to make that work are way too steep, no one is going to want it.

Multiple actually. None of which are 3d. Wanna take bets on how many people will confirm having actually watched something 3d on their tv in the last week? You think it's gonna be a majority percentage?

CODE has no position on walking in stations until we know whether or not we'll be able to enforce ambulation permits.

I'l leave it at this, why is CCP finding it so hard to learn from their mistakes? Maybe Hilmar is the entire problem.



Agreed +1

Its time someone else who been with CCP for a long time to run as the CEO.

Then new and improved idea would come out to improve EvE Online.

That would be better for business.

Nor will it revolutionize anything or be something that everyone has or wants. Put it in the dust bin with all the rest of failed VR, 3d tv and the power glove.

Valkryie (so long as it dependant on VR) is just WiS disaster x 1 million.

I didn't even watch the "speech" but just the fact that they are putting that much faith/interest in oculus still is so sad and disappointing.

The V.R you think you know, is not the V.R. of today. It's not about the next fad, or the new cool thing, it's about escapism and environment immersion. Graphics so realistic you get lost in the experience.
There is and will be a HUGE demand for it.

Hmmm, my kids watch 3d movies on our set in the living room all the time. It's a little bit difficult to find a decent TV anymore without that capability... unless you want bargain basement bin stuff.
It seems like more and more companies are coming out with VR headsets that keep getting better, lighter, and cheaper.
I suppose time will tell, but the entertainment industry seems to have pretty much made up it's mind that it's happening.

I have a TV. It's a 27" CRT and it's been sitting in a closet for the last ten years.

Am I trying to make a point, here?

Yes. A TV...any TV... is a relic of the past. Like having a land line phone. They're just something old people keep buying out of habit.

The discussion shouldn't be about what kind of TV to own. It should be about whether to own one at all. When you add up the cost of the set along with the outrageous cable bills and come to realize you are paying more to watch a movie on the telly than in a theater, I think the answer is obvious.

I mean, seriously. Anyone reading this has fast internet and thus access to more visual media (for free) than they have enough time left in their life to watch. Save yourself a few hundred dollars a month and unplug, people!

CCP has to diversify, they can't rely on a single product for ever and survive, they have done extraordinarily well out of EvE while competitors such as NCSoft and Perfect World have to shovel-ware titles every year to maintain a financial foothold.

E***e has huge historical/emotional following in Europe and poses a very real threat to competing products, CCP has to face this threat to survive. As much as it may irk some players to see them developing other titles, it must happen.

"Themepark" "Sandbox", these do not mean what you think they mean, EvE is as on rails as a freight train, and has as many attractions as Disneyland, but soundbites are easy, thinking is not.

Probably about 80-90% of the CCP staff could use a few public speaking courses before the next Fanfest and a maybe exempt a few of the ones that are really horrible from even having to get on stage.

But I cut them a bit of slack and don't watch live so I can just skip ahead at the really painful parts. I totally skipped Hilmar this year. Does he still make everyone do the embarrassingly awful wave thing?
