In EVE there are tasks which us players have to go through regularly. Some that are recent, some that have been around since the very beginning. Some of these tasks may have you pull out your hair from frustration. Not all developers actually play and use the systems they design, so they may lack the intuitive insight needed to build a proper system.

I would personally love to have a dev take 200+ corp bpos, lock them down. Then unlock them a few days later. To the brave dev that actually sits down and goes through with this. I will Paypal you money for a pint on me. (Dead serious) *You have to do this as a player, you can't use any of your dev tools.Blink When you're done, I'd like you to share your thoughts on the entire process.


So, what horrible player task would you like to have a Dev experience?

To be fair, Grendell, you should take up the challenge that the Devs face. For example, plow through the 56+ pages of the most recent "little things" thread (see https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=167795 ). Your task: separate the posted ideas from the trolls and the discussion, then organize the ideas, then rate them as to difficulty and desirability. Finally, create a "sales pitch" (for management) listing the ideas most worthy of pursuit (in rank order) along with cumulative effort (so management can draw a "cut line" at some point).

(It isn't all sunshine and flowers being a Dev...)*

Yeah I don't doubt they have a lot to do, this has some core point to it, as well as a fun twist to have them physically try what they are making.

Looking back on it, my post was unduly harsh and not made with proper motivation. I've been around enough to know you're (Grendell) neither an idiot nor a troll, and the motivations behind my post included an uncomfortable-in-retrospect amount of hubris. For what it's worth, you have my sincere apology. I think your intent in this thread is worthwhile.

No apology necessary, I wasn't offended. My goal here is to get one of the devs a drink.Lol

I think Grendells main thing is that one feature? that is just sooooo flawed its reta.rd.e.d.. (It is the feature is not taking things personal I asume?)

I recall the try catching a wallet entry "feature" where it was live so it just scrolled every micro second when you have tycoon (or more back in the days)..

Some things in EVE really should take higest priority when its these OMFG things. The Lockdown seem to be very much one of these..

I believe it should be something the next round of CSM should take very serious. To PUSH ccp to drop evreything and fix things that are causing severe pain even if only for a minority. There are some operations that may seem unknown to the masses, but when they are management issues the consequences of say rage with what Seagull called instigators is potentially a HUGE issue.

210 clicks to get 30 slots running, assuming you don't mis-click....


This but with planetary interaction: Advanced Industry Facility

select facility, select blueprint, route output, create route

storage

select item to route to facility
create route

repeat x times the facilities you have.

1. Do anything with corporation management.
2. Set up a large POS with at least 30 gun emplacements.
3. Program anything through their API system of use, and make it reliable.

Be CCP Punturis and post on the furms for a day.

For every creep post made they must deal with a petition about losing a ship to goons. A shot/bounty bar for every creep post is optional.


It must be a source of constant frustration to CCP Punkturis that devs aren't allowed to scam.

A lot of things aren't sex according to Bill Clinton.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
