I mean you know that CCP won’t listen to the CSM or any of the players. This will from their point of view make them more money.

Also CCP very rarely admits they did something wrong and i doubt this will be any different. But anyway…

100% agree with the backlash this is receiving. This is something that’s been on the table for years now, we all knew it was coming to this point. However, we all hoped it would never make it.

For the love of god just sell Corporation / Alliance Ship Skins and Corporation / Alliance Citadel Skins. People would buy that stuff up…

This is why CCP needs to listen to the CSM more.

CCP ought to offer a one-month all-you-can-eat ship subscription service. If your retriever gets dunked, you can respawn a new one at any station. With fittings.

I totally agree with this post.

I played to so many games until now, of different kinds, and every time I saw those kind of commercial behaviors, it was the beginning of a painful and long death.

Those games aren’t necessarily closed, but the core players, those who represented the spirit and the identity of the game for so many years, didn’t recognized themselves anymore and left.

I’m playing Eve since 2 years now, and it is so sad to understand that this game with so much potential is willingly put by CCP on this mortuary road. It will end as an empty shell and soulless game.

Maybe should I invest my money in a game developed by a company that respect me as a player, and not as an endless wallet !

Beware, CCP ! You’re next moves will clearly be interpreted as an answer to this question… So, answer carefully !

P.S. : I’m a french speaking guy. I hope there is not too much English mistakes. If so, I’m Sorry in advance!

This is just another nail in the coffin. I would not expect anything else from CCP after the last 2.5 years of driving Eve into the ground.

Thank you to all the current CSMs and past CSMs for fighting CCP to make Eve a better game.

Mittens for CSM!! Mitten is the CSM the players need and the CSM that CCP deserves to deal with!
