Seymor Krelborn DUST University Ivy League 646	Posted - 2013.08.27 11:52:00 - [1] - Quote you know being a musician is hard work too. to be really good it takes thousands of hours of practice.. I remember when I started playing guitar just trying to make a chord on the fret board was an agonizing endeavor... but eventually not only could I make a chord I could do scales and even go back and forth between parts of scales and chords fluently, without effort... but just because musicianship is a difficult skill im not gonna give a crappy band my money or praise... I can only imagine like any other skill intensive profession, eventually things get easier, and later challenges get exponentially more complex... CCP coders could probably make your star picture in a few minutes tops, with their eyes closed, while being on the receiving end of an enema... im not taking anything away from the fact that coding is hard, but like the musician they don't get a pass for being bad because its hard... if they aren't up to the challenge they should move on, not expect our understanding... im speaking from the perspective of a paying customer who bought a product (400$ bucks into this game here)... I support CCP and believe in them.... but im also a bit salty and expect more out of them... your argument for laying off them is at best flimsy to me.
Seymor Krelborn DUST University Ivy League 652	Posted - 2013.08.27 21:17:00 - [2] - Quote on your first point I would say practicing many times does help but every live performance is its own unique rendition... the song is like an engine in this way (and we are using loose analogies here) the carbon and unreal engines are like the song... the performance is the coding. on your point that writing code taking weeks... writing songs can be the same arduous process.. weeks of working out a melody (or lyrics or), only to scrap it and start again and again in a live performance, if the drummer drops the timing on the beat, or the conductor flubs the tempo that can and has thrown everyone off ruining the song... I agree this game isn't crap, but it is also not living up to the hype, and CCP has done some terrible things to this game simply cause they didn't heed the communities advice. I also agree it is a beta, but they did "officially release" the game which is equivalent to the whole bush "mission accomplished" thing. it was disingenuous, and a bit embarrassing. I also agree if you don't buy anything you have less right to complain... but I chose to in support of CCP, that's my choice...I know, but I am a paying customer, they aren't just providing me a service they are also providing me a product... if that product isn't ready to ship, then they shouldn't be acting like this game is released and selling me anything....they don't deserve the best of both worlds here, no company does... you are either testing a product or marketing it... but you cant market its testing while pretending to market a product... which is what they have done by saying its officially released but in reality so obviously far from that... again I will state I do support CCP, I buy their stuff (eve account too) but I have a right to speak my mind as do the thousands of other customers who indeed have bought dust through boosters, BPs, AUR etc etc... I could just walk away, many have...I still may one day...some people go to far in their complaints of CCP and DUST, but a lot of us are justifiably upset and just want to see this game succeed and as a side note not feel they wasted their own time and money. is it really to much to ask CCP to get their crap together so we can all win here?

I never said I hate them, I was having a civil debate with you... if that makes you salty tough cookies... I respect what CCP is doing, I don't respect how they have gone about it... unlike you I don't give out blind compliments I compliment where its deserved (their ideas and their vision) I criticize where deserved (their delivery, their unfulfilled promises to the community)

I support CCP anyways. Besides, you try pointing out another company that even lets you vote in a player-run council that has stakeholder power with the company. while I don't want to be openly confrontational with a fellow d uni in the public forums, you have left me no choice. im not being negative, im being realistic. I have pointed out I support them and I prove it with my wallet, that also gives me, to some degree, the right to voice my opinion...in ANY THREAD, in the public forums... I am part of this community. if you are referring to the CPM I have to lol at you... CCP doesn't listen to them, all they have is a fancy name with no teeth, for that matter not only does CCP not listen to them, they don't listen to anyone but their coveted metrics and this game has suffered for it... if you disagree with that then you're blind. the fact is there is a minority of blindly loyal fans, and there is a minority of loyal but disgruntled fans, like my self... the majority doesn't play this game at all, because by most people's account its a poor game. the 2 minorities I mentioned are actually on the same side, we both believe in this game, want it to succeed and actually have fun playing it. the only difference between the 2 is the former will take any amount of abuse CCP can dish out, the latter expects more from the company that has told people for years to HTFU.... I think its funny that a loyal fan such as myself cant criticize CCP for good reason and still be recognized by people like you and the OP as being a fan simply because ive chosen to be realistic instead of a lapdog.... its not negativity... its the truth.

Plus they are super dedicated to making monthly updates now, and that is alot of hard work, if they wanted to they could go back to updating once in a blue moon. they are actively working on making the game better, it is gunna take some time, you gotta realize that (also i've also given my money to CCP, and lots of people have so you technically don't have any more rights than i have on the forums(i refuse to play well how much money did u pay game)) I agree with all of this...and to that I say good going and keep it up CCP I appreciate your work... my original "beef" with your post was, and im paraphrasing here, " lets back off of CCP and give them praise because coding is hard" but everything you just said...CCP has my support and thanks as well.
