If you became a top decision-making CCP manager, what 3 things would you tell the staff to do first?

My take:
1. giving players more tools to materialize player driven content (more stuff to set-up, build, destroy and fight over)
2. strenghtening marketing of EVE to bring in more players
3. making low-sec space more interesting to go to


---

P.S.: It would be cool if everyone could just stick to brining in their 3 top issues and refrain from flaming other people ideas.

Hi. If you were a manager in CCP you wouldn't be responsible for any of this. Your top 3 would probably be:

1. Carry out performance reviews of your department
2. Have regular one to one meetings with those in your department
3. Organise a fun team building activity for your department

You might want to rephrase to "If you became Senior Producer, what 3 things would you set as your priorities"

Oh I didn't in any way mean it as a slight, just clearing it up. I think it's a cool idea for a thread :)

Sooo... if I woke up and discovered I was CCP Soundwave my priorities would be:

1) Implement the new LEGO modular POS thingies post-haste, if not sooner.

2) Push the ship rebalancing.

3) Fix buggy, clunky or unwieldy UI stuff.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

1. Introduce ponies
2. Allow a giant image of a phallus to be displayed on ships.
3. Implement Hello Kitty faction with appropriate schemed ships!

1. UI
2. UI
3. UI

Somewhere around spot 30, after UI, I'd probably place things like POS, sov, and corp iterations.

Ultimate Frisbee is only half of what ultimate-death Frisbee is.

1. more monocles
2. more pants
3. more missions, ships, items, modules, lore, fun, boosters (DRUGS!!!) and other goody things.


and 4. aliens.

If I was head manager of CCP, I would tell you its not your place to tell me what to do. Then I would fire Hilmar, cause he would propably give me lip as well. Then I would log onto my computer, and change the rules written down, saying I could change anything I wanted to.

Then I would make gallente worth playing.

you do realise that we players call it UI while the GM's insist on calling it Uni. Inv.

For me it would be.

1. Uni Inv.
2. CCP guide on how they actually want us to use the Uni. Inv.
3. Uni. Inv.

I believe Tippia is referring to the User Interface, which is actually what UI stands for, hence the need to call Unified Inventory something different.

Yes. I've come to abbreviate the new inventory as “uninventory” lately because I feel it's juuuust the right level of meanness (although, truth be told, the 1.2 “always treat as shift-click” solved a vast array of issues) and avoids the confusion with the normal meaning of UI. Blink

I still believe that the unified inventory should be more "Norton Commander" and less "Explorer"
