CSM, Bugs and Excellence: Threadnought Edition

The last expansions were rather disappointing. They introduced nothing but bugs and crippling bugs for very few actual content. They were rushed out, half finished and still were deployed. The lag, thought dead after several large scale battles with over a thousand players after Apochribba came back stronger than before while 0.0 warfare grinded to a halt.
The issue was raised by the CSM several times already, but it seems they are being ignored as usual. Let's see how many people we can get to post their thumbs up in that thread, to show that it's more than just a vocal minority.
..wow, rather melodramatic, wasn't it? Still, I think it wouldn't hurt to raise the issue again. CCP has been slacking lately, delivering mostly bug ridden new features while ignoring old, half finished ones in favour of marketing hype. So if you are subbed at the moment, it'd be nice if you replied to that thread and don't forget to tick the "i give my support"-checkbox.

When they announced Dust, folks knew it was going downhill...
I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again?
Explorer: 87%, Killer: 67%, Achiever: 27%, Socializer: 20%
This patch makes Black Prophecy look better and better...
Yeah ok... Ill admit CCP needs to work on bug and lag and less on new features right now.
But CCP could NGE this fucker and BP will still look like f2p shit in comparison
Once CCP releases Incarna I hope to god that they sit down, fix the lag, bugs and improve existing features for a couple years.
To the OP, PI isnt even fully released yet until the 8th. Even if you want no part in PI to judge the expansion before its main feature is even released and has had time to be worked on by players is rushing things a bit imo.
Ill agree Dominion was suckage, Tyranis isnt fully out yet so we will have to wait.

the way they screwed PVE in this patch....BP looking better.
Telling, isn't it?
What tyrannis did so far was cause a lot of issue with overview, pos and completely screwed the pi market already resulting in 4b isk outposts and a few people making tens of billions of isk..
Oh, and lag got worse.
I think many of us who play EvE could care less about your whining batolemaeus. Lag lag lag is all I here from you 0,0 dwellers. Try and get the hint CCP is changing your world for the better. Its clear to me that:
1. They want Alliances to hold smaler parts of space... opening up 0,0 for more players
2. The mayority of players who play EvE are in High sec so giving us more tools to play with is most important. PI is a great expansion and a lead into Incarna etc
Batolemaeus try and understand that EvE is changing for the better, and sadly large scale battles might be a thing of the Past. I personly dont think they are cool or even interesting. You sitt around and target the primary untill its over. Small scale warfare is mush more tactical and engaging and most of all FUN.
All the big alliances have understood that EvE has changed since Dominion just Read the EvE Tribune

They whine as mush as you so you have friends.... You are just not a priority for CCP SORRRY!
Yeah, and see how that worked out.
(It didn't. People now hold even more space and more people are needed to take space)
In other words: learn the game before spouting bullshit. Dominion sov mechanics cemented the need for the blob instead of strengthening small scale.
Besides, you completely missed the point. Say, are you running missions for an agent a few jumps from lowsec?
I don't know, but It seems to me if you were planning for the game to have 1/2 a millions subs, you would want to find away to fracture the larger null sec groups and introduce new content. Try to spread players more evenly through the game. The problem seems to be, large fleet battles plus new content is producing lag. Just a totally brainless idea I have.
I am not saying I approve of this at all!
Oh god, stop crying. They nerf drops and materials and all of a sudden the pve people enjoyed in Eve is screwed?
Btw, How would you know if BP has better pve? You dont.

Well Batolemaeus... you could always quit EVE if its so bad right now.
I was smart enough to get out of 0.0 a couple weeks before Dominion and I still love the game.

If there was a competitor i'd be long gone. Sadly there isn't.
It's sad to see a very awesome game being taken over and run into the ground by marketing. Revelations kicked ass Trinity, Apochribba and Quantum Rise fixed a lot of issues while introducing a boatload of stuff.
And then it went downhill and the improvements were completely reversed in Dominion and Tyrannis. Which is why i made this thread.
I was logged in a couple days ago and CCP almost had another player activity record (i believe we were near 57k). Somthing I havent seen in a while.
I think if more of you 0.0 guys actually left they might stop everything and actually fix that section of the game.
Right now their sitting pretty, why fix anything if you guys keep playing and paying anyway?
Get together, do a Null sec strike and have 15-20% of the playerbase quit lol. I'm sure Null will be up to par with high/low and wormholes space in a couple months heh.

I told you! Haha!
In fairness, Dominion did fix the pirate Faction ships which went from laughable to awesome. But yeah, I voted on that thread as soon as I saw it. It's the fastest -growing, most-supported thread the Assembley has ever seen.
I hope CCP listen. 1 horizontal and 1 vertical expansion per year plx.
Give me liberty or give me lasers
The principle behind the 0.0 changes in Dominion was good. The execution was not. All they had to do was stay with it, keep an eye on how things actually turned out, and fine tune the processes (and fix the crippling lag they introduced a lot damb sooner), and it would have been OK. That's what Batolomeus is talking about: sure, by all means introduce changes and new content, but dont just dump them on to the game then walk away from them like they smell, ready for the next hyped shiney.
Give me liberty or give me lasers
Indeed, Black ops, Factional Warfare or T3 are the examples how to fine tune things.
I hear pirate epic arcs were broken by tyrannis..
People actually run the pirate Arcs?

I just checked. There's a thread with more thumbs: Click... 2.... 1... Click.... (Scantimer is horryfing now)
Which didn't un-nerf the scanner sadly. It's still annoying to try to get a decent overview of your surroundings..

There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

As a WH dweller I'm all for some dscan luv. Would be nice if you could filter the dscan results and still be able to detect probes...
I dont care at all about the pirate arcs, I just like my Cynabal
Give me liberty or give me lasers
IIRC CCP reduced the scan refresh time. You and I both know that using the overheat mechanism would have been better (so you can use the scanner intensively for a short period, but if you overdo it, it burns out) but hey.

BP is just some crap F2P instanced arcade game which will be filled with 14 years young, hyperactive kids with too much sugar in their bloodstream, most of them will probably be from the horrible Steam community.
The game may not be too bad, but the community will totally ruin it, thanks to F2P.
i perfer the 2 second cooldown then whatever that burnout option is. That was easily adaptable for me and i rarely notice a difference waiting an extra second is just how it is for me now, and i dont think i've ever lost a target/ship because of that problem. I find it hard to believe that people are still crying about the scanner.
