EVE General Discussion

Well, I guess you missed the various CCP Dev posts in this thread starting around page 125 with this one:



Then followed a few pages later by another CCP Dev:



That was followed with about 1/2 dozen pages of question and answer time with a sneak preview of Team Avatar:



Then even more interaction by CCP plus a post from another CCP Dev:



After that there was even more interaction between CCP's Team Avatar and Pro-WiS players.

Anyway, I am truly amazed how some people are so quick to post without researching all of the facts. Sure it's gonna take a little while for WiS gameplay content to roll out, but I'm sure everybody would agree that 'Commitment To Excellence' is much more preferred than rushed unfinished content.

One thing is for sure, I'll be damned to let this thread end on a negative note by someone trying to rain on this parade. Obviously you quickly jumped on the wrong Band Wagon without actually hearing the song they were singing.

Like it or not, WiS is here and more content will be developed and expanded on in the future making WiS an integral part of Eve Online.

Please enlighten us of the tools the alliance leadership uses to track the voting of the alliance membership (and alts!).

Additionally, please explain how the CSM voting is an "out of game thing" when you have to be a paying subscriber to vote.

It's great that WiS will be the subject of a roundtable discussion on Fanfest. The only problem is that unfortunately that means players that aren't going to be at Fanfest will miss out on the opporunity to talk about it with the Devs.

Is it possible to organise a 'virtual' roundtable whereby players are able to discuss the future of Incarna? Perhaps you could incorporate a crowd sourcing exercise as part of it to help gauge interest in different proposed features.

I wonder when this Devblog they promised is going to be published?

Looks like Space Barbie will get more dev time than spaceships ever got while they were working on Incarna for a year and a bit so stop complaining.

Some ppl just aren't smart enough to calculate 2+2.
that ppl other ppl call dumb.
so please don't write again and stop sharing your dumbness.

Any one complaining here? not me
lets wait for that blog they promised and see what they have in mind

The CSM isn't anti-ambulation. They're just anti-Incarna. Incarna was a failed, rushed attempt to monetize peoples desire for WiS.

I'm anti-Incarna too, but extremely pro Ambulation. WiS is, I think, the next big feature that needs to be released, developed slowly while FiS is fixed, since FiS is the core of EVE gameplay.

Gawd, please get your facts straight before you post. And while you're at it, try reading the various CCP Dev replies in this thread. I even posted a few of them at the top of this page.

The hugh piles of subscription money wasn't spent on WiS or the NEX and MT. CCP bought out another company (White Wolf) and invested into 2 other projects. Don't try to say CCP spent 5 years focused on WiS either. There was a lot of other gameplay content developed and released just in the past 3 years.

As for graphic cards burning up, boo hoo. I had a 10 yr old very limited computer which was able to run CQ. Granted it was super laggy and took a long time to load due to game settings placed on low but hey, if my old computer could do it, those high priced new gaming computers should have been able to do it. What really boggles my mind is I just bought a new computer for $400 and guess what, it runs excellent with the CQ active and all Eve settings on high.

So you don't like the NEX store, fine. Nobody is forcing you to buy anything from it. WiS gameplay will be incorporated into the game. Unfortunately right now CCP is a little bit gun shy and is busy placating a very vocal minority. Plus they seriously need to continue fixing all the broken unfinished content in the game.

As far as I know, the current CSM has not supported any WiS development and I doubt they ever will. I will place my vote with Issler Dainze and I encourage others to do the same.

Yeah, I also entertained the notion of running for CSM. At this time I'd much rather support someone who has more conviction and dedication to do it than I do. Besides that, I feel Issler Dainze shares the same concerns and viewpoints as I have on a lot of issues. A hell of a lot more than the current CSM or anyone else even remotely affiliated with them. If I understand you correctly, then you pretty much feel the same way and as you said, why split the vote when you can easily help solidify it for someone else who roughly shares the same viewpoints.

I belong to NPC starter corp which has a lot of players in it. I also have quite a few other chat channels open while in game. Also it seems lately my name often gets recognized in local chat at various times, probably due to the 'Faction Standing Repair Plan'. All of these seem like a good opportunity to do a little bit of endorsement for someone who definitely would like to see WiS gameplay content developed.

As for the Forums, I'm sure we're all disliked by someone. And I don't think the Forums really matter too much. I think the way to get votes is to convo players in the game via local chat. Basically let em know who you are and what your stance is on various topics, discuss main issues with possible solutions and collect ideas for the future. More or less let the public know that you want to represent them.
