This. From my perspective it's the last chance for CCP to redeem themselves

What are you looking forward to?

The only thing I know about are bringing back ship spinning and nerfing supercaps and drams. They are nice, but I can contain myself. Did I miss something other big change?


Nothing official has been announced. Only "it's gonna be so cool we promise, please-don't-cancel-your-subs-because-we're-barely-starting-work-on-it-so-close-to-launch-date-and-have-no-idea-what's-actually-gonna-be-in-it."

We're supposed to get a dev blog this week, one that was supposed to be more interesting than either that got published today (who cares about what new lighting stuff you're adding to a "feature" nobody uses or likes without qualification.)

I care, and lighting was only a part of it, the rest of us will still like new cyno, new font, old gun icons and return of ship spinning :P

Besides the useless lighting crap, all the rest was announced before. Old news. Sure, dev blog confirmation isn't exactly bad, but even then being excited because someone rips something violently away from you and then says "oh yeah, you'll get it back some day" shows extremely low expectations from both parties.

This is a positive new direction CCP is taking and looks like someone in upper management was taking notice of the rage.

Until there is a meaningful dev blog about something that is not Cosmetic. I don't know how any true fan of the game can be excited about the next 3-4 months.

Unless your just here to collect pixel shirts and stair at yourself in a pixel mirror.

I'm looking forward to multiplayer WiS which I hope we will get in Winter expansion in some form. I still have over 130 pairs of boots to sell and I want price to go up. Roll


but by then the boots will not be in season as trainers will be the footware of choice. Lol

Fixed for you :) That's a pretty cool role in you're job description. you might even iterate the idea into new Eden to become a witch/vampire hunt " in space" mini game, I'd suggest this should take place within anomalies. Lets implement that for the winter expansion, why should CCP employees get all the fun of hunting down the CCP alts. No fair!!! :P Thanks for replying though Fallout. Most will see that you have actually considered "players" concerns then get paranoid yourself and take time out of you're day to make sure they aren't actually correct, rather than brush it off with a "this could never happen my company are not even human I couldn't possibly think for myself :)

Not to mention that posting on "DevAlts" is basically a deception tactic, and I doubt CCP really stands to gain anything from such tactics. (Plus, I'm sure there are rules barring it, in general, when dealing with sensitive issues.)
