[S.O.A] is now recruiting.

We dabble in all aspects of EvE

- Small Gang pvp
- Mission runing

What we are looking for:

- Players with a sense of humor *A must*
- Level headed and mature players that respect each other.

Who needs tears for amusement?

Again, see how the barely incoherent arguments against WiS amount only to rhetoric, finger pointing, and breath holding.

Nobody is wanting Incarna to be about playing dress ups.

Incarna was the latest in a long series of mistakes that caused subscribers to drop and the resulting job loss. Attributing the drop in subscribers as being sorely due to Incarna - whilst making for great (albeit simplistic) rhetoric - is lazy analysis.

Nobody is asking that CCP abandon anything, quite the contrary actually.



You are indeed asking CCP for WiS, which would, again require them devoting time and resources to developing it, which would in turn require them to pull people from FiS to work on WiS...unless they want to hire a whole new team to work on WiS, some how i dont think they will.

As for the drop in subs due to INCARNA...for me personally and the other people i know who left, all th other stuff made me angry, but, it was the amount of time and resources used to take EVE in a direction neither they nor i wanted to have any part of, if this is the direction EVE is headed, im outties, and so were they.....thankfully CCP has re-focused back to what made EVE great.

As to the "dress up" thing...give me one instance where WiS is of any benefit to the core play of EVE, just one.....how is it helpful to shooting other peoples spaceships ?
Do you just want to walk around a station ? do you just want to come face to face with your friends avatars ? SWTOR has all that, maybe you'd be better of there.



CCP devoted time to stuff other then WIS ,people forget the fact that WOD took a major part of it.
Dust comes next .
Two games a lot of EVE will never touch.
Still WIS seems to be the only one to blame
About devoting resources ,they still try to make a console only game only a few believe in.
Nobody is crying about that or shooting statues .
Crubicle was done in six weeks according to CCP so next expansion period should give enough time to make some WIS lovers just a little happy (and i don,t mean put stuff in failNEX)
So WIS supporters happy and only FISwhiners happy(bc whining about a barbie seems the only thing a handfull of people can do)

That definitely makes some sense, CCP, how about it, some clarity?

I read about EVE in a magazine before it was released and thought to myself 'Now this game I have got to get into.' Having enjoyed Frontier and Elite previously.

I have read some of the content of this thread and I have to say that I was one of those that wanted to hop out and mingle in a station because to me EVE is NOT a game about ships and explosions.

We all have different reasons for tuning into EVE and I for one really like the INCARNA improvements. Now finally I at least have an avatar I can see and he's just so damn good looking and all my friends so how much he looks like me.

From day 1 I traded while others did missions. I looked at the losses sustained from missions versus the profits accumulated from trading and just went from there.

I LIKE walking around and seeing my ship. I LIKE how damn good my avatar looks. I LIKE being able to customise him and I LIKE trading and science and market speculation.

It was very interesting reading through this to see the different reasons why various people play EVE and how they view the moves made by those who provided that place to experience.

Eve gets me out of bed early and that is the real truth as to why I play eve. Sad possibly TRUE 100%.

Eve is the market and my wallet with occasional irritating excursions into space.

This are only tears of laughter about your whining. But go on if you like, your whining gets more and more entertaining for me Big smile. It is really funny to see the same two or three "haters" desperately trying to make a fuss and not getting anywhere Blink.

I unsubbed the first time due to Incarna and now am unsubbed again (using hours for plex to clear out my account and make a few posts) until CCP has enough respect to address the future of WiS in more than just a flippant brush-off manner.

EVE has always been about something more than just spaceships, but an entire expanding sandbox, that feeling has been gone for a while with the last content-less expansion and this content-less (though fix-full) patch-spansion.

I'll be keeping an eye out now and again for CCP's much-needed response on the WiS issue, which I and many others believe needs to be on the immediate path forward if EVE is even to have a future past a few years. I don't necessarily think unsubbing en masse is the correct action since it's clear CCP still needs people to tell them why they are displeased (this is apparent because they still don't get why people, including myself, unsubbed en masse due to Incarna and hint to them an FiS-only patch-spansion isn't even close to getting a clue). However I'm not going to contribute any more resources to a stagnant game that had I known years ago while watching gameplay videos of Ambulation, would amount to this.

CCP needs to formulate a definitive plan for WiS and either say it's a go and give us sandbox players hope or say it's definitively terminated, so at least we know now where the sandbox ends. Effectively this is my line in the sand.

Correct. They have a lot to do with the FiS part of the game. I think there are not many posters here who really deny that.

Doh, yesterday I bringed this abandoned thread to the attention of CCP Guard in another thread where he asked some guy what threads he would like to have looked at...

No results yet.

Maybe just there is no dev who can talk about the issue because this whole thing is no devs land. And community management are busy with the season holidays. And so on.
