AMA - CCP Acquisiton by Pearl Abyss! Starts at 16:30 UTC!

Is there any plan to overhaul the core server code to better handle very large fleet battles and if so, does the acquisition help or hinder any progress towards that potential goal?

Having seen Archeage - a game with some promise - become a pay-to-cheat fiasco, and having heard BDO is not dissimilar, I’m concerned about EVE’s future.

I will not play a pay-to-cheat PVP game.

What firm promises regarding to the integrity of EVE’s gameplay can you make?

What do PA get out of the deal if CCP is to remain as an independent subsidiary? Nobody drops half a billion dollars (CCP only worth half a billion … damn) without expectation of returns.

Will there be anime tiddies?

Hi CCP CEO and @CCP_Falcon
So with our new owners. A couple things I’d like to ask

  1. Can I now buy walking in station for a fee? - Eur 49 would be well balanced

  2. Can I pay to get a single player mode so there is no worries for any ratting and mining person/s and feel safe

Sincerely
Tenaya

A fun question in between :slight_smile:

When will we get to speak with PA representatives :stuck_out_tongue: And I’m not referring to studio staff :frowning:

Hi chaps, thanks for doing this AMA, just a couple of questions.

  1. Will there be any more instanced PVE like the Abyss?

  2. Will EvE remain a single shard game?

With 1 skirmish command link since you have the Mindlink, right?

In a recent published interview, a Pearl exec said: “We also hope to further our market growth with Eve Online, plans for which we’re not yet ready to announce.” Does this statement imply that EVE might become more newbie-friendly? Contain a better, easier tutorial? Emphasize single-player actions more than group-initiated play?

Hey CCP. :v:

Can you, here and now, commit to never removing/prohibiting non consensual combat from any areas of the game?

Can you prepare a back up of the whole game from the day they will take control of CCP? No beacause i think we will need it when after 1 year PA Eve Online will die anbd player will buy back the right to use for less of 1 M dollar by cruwfunding.

EVE is a persistent universe where changes are very hard or impossible to undo due to their impact on the economy among other things. CCP always puts a lot of thought into all the impacts of changes to the game with this limitation in mind. Will CCP be retaining this control, or will PA drive future feature development ideas? And will PA proceed with more caution due to the permanence of any changes? Related to this, will the CSM remain a point of player consultation and engagement?

will out of game player events like Fanfest still happen

is this deal almost the same as disney/marvel where ccp is still a studio and owned by PA

what changes to staff do you know about and can comment on

future game like nova still coming or on hold?

Did you consider going public yourself instead of becoming part of a public company?
I imagine there would have been many players interested in owning parts of CCP. A player owned EVE would have been amazing.
