They were going to have to make changes to the game engine itself just so 17 players could play dress-up…

That’s the story of CCP. A day late and a dollar short. The same thing with Dust 514. Had they tried Dust and WIS a couple years later, and not coded Dust for a dying console system, maybe they both would have stuck around.

does not matter. nothing is a target, but nothing is sacred. since the new number is 3% we will use that. anything where less than 3% of the players use it should be removed as it is a waste of dev time and resources.

New leadership **ALWAYS** believes that they have the perfect solution.

Why not make every system 0.0?

You must have sort of an idea of what you think needs removed. List something.

To just say " well it doesnt matter" isnt acceptable. List what you think isnt worth the resources any longer so that the devs may spend more time on something else.

You wouldnt even being saying this unless you knew what those wasted entities were.

I mean really, im interested what those could be.

EVE Online itself has not been passed around repeatedly. The company behind it, **CCP Games** , has had **two major ownership changes** :

1. **2006, CCP merged with White Wolf**  
This was more of a merger than a simple “sale.” CCP remained the EVE studio. ([WIRED](https://www.wired.com/2006/11/white-wolf-mmos?utm_source=chatgpt.com "White Wolf MMOs Loom on the Horizon"))

2. **2018, Pearl Abyss bought CCP Games**  
Pearl Abyss, the Black Desert Online company, acquired CCP Games. CCP continued operating EVE. ([Pearl Abyss](https://www.pearlabyss.com/en-US/Board/Detail?_boardNo=187&utm_source=chatgpt.com "Pearl Abyss Acquires CCP Games, Makers of EVE Online"))

There is also a **2026 reported sale/separation** , where Pearl Abyss sold CCP back to its management team for about **$120 million** , with CCP rebranding as **Fenris Creations**. That would make it **three major corporate ownership events** if you count the 2026 management buyout. ([Inven Global](https://www.invenglobal.com/articles/21496/pearl-abyss-sells-eve-online-developer-ccp-games-to-secure-financial-health?utm_source=chatgpt.com "Pearl Abyss Sells 'EVE Online' Developer CCP Games to ..."))

**Bought/sold outright: 2 times, maybe 3 if counting the 2026 management buyout.**  
**Corporate ownership/merger events affecting EVE: 3.**

I think they meant that the same leadership team has been calling the shots for at least 20 years.
