Does this now mean that Sony "owns" CCP?

Old CCP continued a traditional drinking event where people would get up, swear and insult people.

Someone said something wrong.

New CCP organised a public lashing of that someone and have ended this event.

New CCP conveniently fails to admit any liability in mixing alcohol, egos, nastiness and webcasts.

So this is the new Sony flavoured CCP?

Nope.

CCP had to invistage to prevent getting trolled themselves. Which got them into much more trouble last time they got trolled by goonswarm.

People always act surprised.

Do you think your good wishes and your internet spaceships are what are keeping CCP alive for business ? And we're not talking 1 dollar margin types of revenues but bigger than that to support the parallel development of two games.

Well they're not, and CCP needs the back up of huge corporate structures such as Sony who is their main partner for the upcoming Dust 514.

So deal with it. If I had to choose angry bitter goons over Sony corporate cash, I'd go for Sony. Anyone saying different is welcome to join the hippies and the communists at the Wall Street picket lines.

Errr, actually no on all counts.

I'm just damn curious.

How can put someone impaired by alcohol in front of a camera for a live global broadcast and get pious when it turns sour?

A CCP staff member could have said, "I'm sorry mate, you don't look 100% to represent us on a live telecast."

Having a partner like SONY means good things for the respectable rule following playerbase.

"Wtf are you talking about Pahineh?"

It means that they don't have to worry about enforcing rules / bans / removing the cancers within their game. Infact more so it motivates them as a company to do so. CCP is moving UP, when you are going UP you cast aside anything that holds you DOWN, even if it means a slight loss in profit.

I'm not going to give a business lecture though.... I'm just saying, watch.

So a Corporate meta game play to try to get the Goons to quit in disgust so they can "cleanse" the game?

A bit tinfoil, but very possible - if that's what Sony have told them to do.

Rather than get into a debate i'll make it simple.


The moment you click/clicked "accept" on the EULA/TOS to play this game etc, you are @ the will of CCP.

Meaning you could violate the EULA not even know it and if someone is watching / wants to do something they can & will OR won't.

It's way to complicated to try to explain or speculate. Want some insight, go create a company and deal with the general public.

CCP calls the CSM democratically elected and tosses out 10000 votes afterwards. No thank you sir, I'll take it up with CCP.
