Why on earth would they move the server, do you even know what you are talking about!

Yes, I do. AND I probably know a little more than you do about protecting your own property

Then they have nothing to worry as they have stated multiple times, EVE is in a really good place from a financial point of view. The whole financial trouble CCP got themselves in was because of their VR and multiple other failed projects.

31

By EVE do you mean CCP?

They might be in a good place now.

32

Clearly you don’t, it makes ZERO sense to move the server.

I think it is far better now that CCP is owned by another game company rather than a venture capitalist.

CCP has proven that they can build an awesome game that lasts decades and has a loyal player base, I guess if something will change then that PA will try to profit from their knowledge and maybe try to listen more to their players.

34

No I mean EVE as a product.

35

I disagree.

36

Oh come on.

With that kind of move you get new staff too! Different hardware, network, country, language.

It’s an IT wet dream.

We can only hope. But with $420,000,000.00 you can afford to do all kinds of nifty stuff. :kr:

38

Because all that money is going to be spent on the company those people no longer own.

You naiveté rivals your real life name sake.

You’re an idiot. I was saying that a company that can spend 420m can afford to do whatever they want.

Learn to read or STFU!

Including counter-productive server moves?

Lets do this a different way. Give one GOOD reason (as in, a reason that will be of net benefit to PA) to take CCP’s servers and move them to SK.

Literally the ONLY thing they’d benefit from considering doing is spinning up a NEW server farm in SK, (the Korean version of Serenity) that they can use to target SK gamers, who are used to playing heavily monetized games. Which would be stupid, because they’d never get their money’s worth. SK gamers would just use a VPN the same as the Chinese to access TQ.

@Old_Pervert

Care to make a wager?

42

/facepalm

43

Still waiting for that good reason

You think they will move the servers from Iceland to Asia and want to bet on it? What time frame?

Let me do some math and I’ll get back to you.

Hint: take note of all the subtle infrastructural alterations to distributed tech constructs. It isn’t about moving, but about a different kind of packaging.
