EVE Online dev team is understaffed

2019 … and now ?

TBH They said in the FW presentation that it might stretch to all factions of space maybe they will have a way for us to edit the map. Wish we could move star gates around.

It’s worse. Gankers think EVE is their game. Talk about deluded.

Remember Ultima Online?
I know one member of the CSM does.

WOTLK classic just got announced.
And season of mastery vanilla server are still played.

In Fact: WoW Classic is the biggest success story MMOs have seen recently, only lately getting rivaled by Lost Ark. But even LA didnt came anywhere near close the WoW classic hype in 2019.

Yea I played classic wow when it came out again it was pretty fun but lost its appeal after 4months ish when they took way to long to release the the patches.

Seriously doubt it.
The community is already divided and we can see this everyday on this forum.
You have the " Calm down miner " groups and
You have the " Gankers are psychopaths " groups.

And when all the Nostalgia Vanity products get done with, what then ?

We’re comparing Wow community with Eve community now …

Im so done with this conversation.

Well, you asked for it.

You stated you’d quit the discussion multiple times now, yet ur still here.

Classic Plus will get announced.

Ultima Online had this split, and then the dev team got bought and were pushed to make a special snowflake server, and became a strictly PVE with limited PVP themepark game.

The full PVP server got shut down.

Same thing will happen here, over time.

The old Ultima had to be taken on by private servers, and who has the capacity to host Eve privately ?

Virutally no one, and also the fact PA would have to give away its rights to the game.

lol

All that doesn’t demonstrate that the community isn’t divided.
It’s so divided that ISD have to ban people for a week because they lob insults at each other.

You have the right to your opinion and so do I.
My opinion is that a new server is a great idea.

Now insult me and demonstrate again how divided this community is.

Well… i dont get the joke?

Blizzard made a shtload of money, established an entirely new product line with their classic servers, millions upon millions of players had years of great fun and even a promising future since new content on the horizon?
Classic WoW was the best move Blizzard did in years.

lol, you really think that EVE revolves only around ganking? Just quit if you don’t like it. No point in hitting head into a wall.

You’re way off.

I do. He thinks you’re an uneducated snowflake and that he’s right.

Yeah, you sound like Ratatti. Apparently eve is full of newbros who don’t understand what would motivate someone to kill another player in a full loot UPvP game.

That’s because they don’t understand how Eve works. It is a skill based game with a flat power curve, and the average player is probably only a couple of years old. But blame shifters gonna blame shift.

And so you thing the solution is to reduce player interaction and competition, and make it easier for people to optimize towards boredom?

Yeah, it’s absolutely amazing to me how people keep asserting something that is objectively and demonstrably untrue. I don’t even try to keep track of nullsec happenings, but know for a fact that groups claim space when opportunities present themselves (i.e. wars, glassings, and organizational collapses). It might be harder to take space now than when CCP was adding vast amounts of unclaimed space, but I thought this was supposed to be a challenging UPvP sandbox that says that you might win, and not a fluffy themepark that says everyone gets to be a winner.

It’s true that the anti-UPvP types outnumber the pro-UPvP types, but the truth of the matter is that there are players out there that love the challenge and emergent game play opportunities that ganking provides.


You think this because you are a defeatist with a strong external locus of control. You are your own biggest enemy, and a new server isn’t going to change that.

Lowsec: 7.69t
Nullsec: 22.06t

so what, ganking makes less than 10% of overall losses, yet its the biggest dividing factor the game currently has.

I dont know even what he tries to be right about?

WoW Classic not beeing a success?

hello? have he been living under a rock for the past 3 years?

Edit: @Verlyn after slander and personal insults now flags posts because he cant handle reality… sad.

Wait, how is the economy supposed to function in this alleged new paradigm?

Who is going to live on the other side of HS from Jita and why?

How would making the universe smaller help anything?

You’re splitting an already small community of a UPvP sandbox, which reduces social mass and content in a game where the players are the real content of the game. And no, I’m not just pulling that out of my ass. I’ve heard devs say that players are the content in this game.

So, it’s befuddling to me how many people there are playing this game, who don’t value UPvP content, and think that CCP should deliver more crappy PvE content while making it easier to optimize towards boredom. I just don’t get it. How are there so many people here who don’t want to play the game that CCP made?

Oh, but I forgot the original point I was trying to make. Splitting the server is not guaranteed to result in everyone getting to play the game they want forever. It might have a better chance of working if Eve had a bigger audience, but at this point in time, there’s a very real chance that it would just kill the game.
