You speak as if you play with the rest of us.

I've heard you mention PC before.

What exactly makes you credible??

I have a hard time respecting your opinions as I know not where they come from.

What is your job there at CCP?

He's a developer of the game, and like other developers he has a character in a corporation that has no ties to his CCP name. Due to CCP policy he cannot tell you who his character is.

Also, the fact that he is a developer makes him somewhat credible - not to mention the fact he usually just talks about what he does in game, and doesn't tell others what to do.

And lastly, your post is somewhat rude in tone. I will chalk it up to English as a second language.

Anyone know, I'm curious. Guy speaks as if he knows the ins and outs quite well.

That's nice of you, I'd chalk it up to the OP being a douchebag.

Lol, blunt and to the point. Often people find that as rude, but I meant I didn't mean it as rude in any way. The guy makes a lot of good points, this is why I am curious!

Hahaha. It's never a bad idea to question your sources. I actually like a lot of the advice he has given out! Just seems strange as he is the only one I've seen write posts such as the ones he does. Sounds like he plays him some dust a bit.

The thing is he lends to his credibility as a developer when he makes posts like these, I don't often see the others doing the same.

Well, you didn't explode in a mindless rage when I said that, so respect to you sir.
And I agree.

Because I'm a good lemming, I will follow Arkena's lead on this...

You were more diplomatic than me from the start.

I recommend then that you say that in the beginning. It is possible to be up front and not be rude.

he has an alt in a "real corp" as he put it.

Innocent until proven guilty IMO

Well, you didn't explode in a mindless rage when I said that, so respect to you sir.

Being a **** gets your issue more attention than being nice.

Sounds backwards, but thats reality.

I was not even trying, does that mean I might actually be an *******

I like him. He's like the hero dust deserves, plu I heard he uses plcs,

Part of me thinks of is secretly ccp rattati, ya know how Bruce hides his identity as Batman by calling Batman a crazy guy and putting on a facade.

All of the developers play! :D Some of the people who don't work directly on the game may not play. I play, and we have groups of us who play secretly. It's kind of fun :D I have 2 and soon 3 accounts! One that I personally play/pay on, and my CCP one! I wouldn't give out advice though! I make weird choices. :)

Dust 514 guys do have a policy as in Eve Online where they aren't allowed to interfere with consolidated player activities, correct? Faction Warfare I'm sort of on the fence about but I don't really think that CCP employees should retain a leadership position in Planetary Conquest, that's just asking for controversy.

depends, if the dev is on team true grit any contreversy would be deserved, that said any major game changer updates will get dev blogged the hell out of before they're released so the argument about unfair advanatage etc could swing both ways, as for a dev working on a different team i don't really see the issue there, they're probably as clueless as the rest of us on the specifics of whats happening.

and controversy would only be created if the devs accounts were leaked, which is not only a douche move on the account of the leaker (as those accounts will have to be deleted and the devs in question would have to stop playing with the groups/corps that they had been a part of up till then) it is also no reason to restrict the devs freedom in game. making calls based on what might happen (when might is a relativley small possibility) is what leads to all kinds of bullshit regulations and joy killers.

Holy epically long Dev post.

I feel like you just stole all of my information somehow and claimed my life as your own especially the kids part. Lol We are much alike, good sir. It's nice to see someone as interested in the game and it's potential as I am once in a while. Call me a fanboy, but the game has more potential than any other game I've ever played. You have some competition with Destiny, but we can beat Bungie. I'm looking forward to that Gal heavy, by the way.

Keep it comin dude.

But you're not fooling me with the PC talk - your corp is PC ready but they're not taking anyone not in proto. So now I wonder about your opinion on the competitive level.

which developer is in charge of vehicles? and is their any dev that specced tanks? im curious because vehicles are so broken i wondered if any of you were brave enough to try and tank your own game?

yall should take some characters and fully specc tanks and run around ina 6 enforcer tank dev squad so we av users can take out some aggression on u..after all you would be the only 6 tanks left in dust..i seriously have days nowadays where i play all day and see 0 tanks

never at EA, been with CCP since 2007

I have to ask, what does FP&A mean?

Question.

DISCLAIMER: Just poking fun

Do you have the ability to send yourself boatloads of ISK and AUR

SoTa,

y u hurt me...

Jokes aside, don't know what you mean, I run a full proto/complex assault (dmg mods, armor, light weapon), except scanners/hives and grenades (don't have them up to full proto yet), I spent the rest of my SP on maxing core skills and some branching

There is nothing that I love more than my fit that has 378/378 CPU & 79/79 PG, that's the way of the warrior

Working on my heavy skills now (without SP investment), waiting for the GA heavy

I have been practicing my aiming by only using the Imperial and Tac AR, but progress is slow and painful and destroying my KDR, I also play coop CODBOPS2 with the oldest boy to train mah twitchin'

I have played every build since closed internal alpha, so I know the long way we have come since then, and how far we can still go, and guys, Chromo wasn't "that good"

I am in a PC player corp and EVE alliance, though I don't play EVE

Having kids makes me never able to hit the cap, and very rarely do PC. I am working on that though.


Does that cover it...?



And I used the PLC way before it was cool

So what exactly does FP&A exactly entail? I'm curious!

Financial Planning and Analysis, right?

Which means he probably knows how many doofs got roped into disposable W.A.R. kits.

I think he's confusing you with CCP Rouge.

This I could support - a farewell to vehicles just prior to 1.7, with CCPers in HAVs and the rest of us in AV!

potential is all it has had..ever actually when i first started playing this game in the beginning the reason stated was it has such potential ..potential wont hold me through the next generation of games..not when ive seen what ccp does with such potential... i seriously hope firing blam and hiring some new heads..has a noticeable improvement in the game development so far..nothing noticed.

but then on the meter of burnt out players i am right on the end..as my original specc is also the most expensive and the one ccp has ruined the most vehicles..i think newer players get into this game thinking they are gunna be vehicle speccs and then they leave when they see how hopeless vehicles are (10x more hopeless than a scrub upping infantry)

you wanna look at the new player exp ccp one of you should start a character with the mindset I AM GOING TO BE A VEHICLE SPECC..and see how long it takes you to hate this game. when they're are people like me whos 20k av fit 2 shots most tanks running around this game. still say your vehicles are the most game breaking aspect of dust..enjoy delaying fixing them..thank god gtav came out to keep me entertained while you piddle.

It's strange thinking that we could all be playing with CCP devs daily while complaining about the latest CCP fk up...

kinda scary rly

I'm more afraid of these Forum warriors that keep ganging up on me, or are they actually the devs.

Trust no one.

lol

CCP are probably jumping on all the FOTMs and secretly buffing them after they've been nerfed for a few weeks just so they an get an edge over everyone else

All of the developers play! :D Some of the people who don't work directly on the game may not play. I play, and we have groups of us who play secretly. It's kind of fun :D I have 2 and soon 3 accounts! One that I personally play/pay on, and my CCP one! I wouldn't give out advice though! I make weird choices. :)

If you play does that mean you experience the same bullshit we do on a daily basis? or do you play on your little TQ server away from the rest of the community? I really doubt most of you CCP devs put more than 1 hour a week into actually playing because if you did the game would not be in its current state.

Also, we do not want fitting/game advice from the DEVS, you don't know how to win at your own game I have seen some posts of what these "DEVS" do with their skill points and fittings and to say the least it is entertaining.

Hey OP,

I just answered in another thread, but will repeat this once, only once.

I am the global head of FP&A at CCP, currently based in Iceland, and relocating with my family to Shanghai in January to help our efforts on Dust 514, joining CCP Rouge and the team there.

Given that I am also a fanatic player, you might call me a true believer in Dust 514 and its potential.

That said and done, I have opinions, usually as fact based as I can, which is one of the reasons I am here on the forums but I don't actually develop the game, but I can influence it.

Why don't you post game play on your channel? A few clips here and there would be nice.

I unfortunately cannot post myself playing on my personal character. So the only one I can be public on is the CCP Mintchip. one. Which I don't play as often.
