Your post is much like all other CCP Dev posts. Vague, dodging critical questions and up selling Dust 514 Aurum sales. Granted it's only an introduction thread, yet it's still very disappointing. All of this "soon" nonsense needs to go.
Critical questions;
1.) Will we get new maps, ever? (not new sockets)
2.) Will we ever see a player market? Ya know, the thing MANY players have been waiting for for months.
3.) Is the overhaul to PC cancelled?
4.) Why continue developing Dust only server side? When the game needs more client side updates if anything.
Is this due to;
A.) Lack of talent on the development team?
B.) Lack of care on CCPs part?
C.) Satisfying your agreement with Sony by giving minimal updates so you do not have to pay back refunds?
D.) All of the above.
I'll check back from time to time to see if you bothered to answer any of these questions. I know the life of a CCP Dev must be very difficult, so I'll expect your answers Soon(tm). 1) No new maps on horizon, theoretically possible 2) No 3) No 4) Server side fixes are low hanging fruit, I also believe hardly used content that becomes viable counts as "semi-new" content. See the balancing video I posted in the Dev Spotlight for insight.
2) Ok how about letting us just trade items among each other ie I cant use the proto forge guns but I have a big honking pile of them and I'd like to give them to the player in my corp who can?

I'd honestly prefer a way to just sell all the stuff we don't use and pass on the ISK gained to other players so they can just buy it themselves. Trading is wonky and generally requires you find to find someone that wants the stuff you're trying to offload. Selling the stuff to an NPC, on the other hand, effectively removes -ALL- the unnecessary assets you don't want and you get ISK for it.... which, as stated, is a more effective trade material than the item itself.
Since the statement has been made "2.) Will we ever see a player market? No." what you'd prefer isn't going to happen. So let's see if we can get a compromise instead of trying to get something we have been told we can't have m'kay?

The hell did you think my suggestion was if anything -but- a compromise? And he said no to a player market, we already have the ability to trade ISK so the only thing we -need- is an ability to liquidate items we don't use and we then we have a rudimentary market system; which is a hell of a lot closer than a barter system. Further more, I think you're the last person to dictate whether or not something "isn't going to happen". Market =/= Selling items to NPCs. All that would be is a copy/paste of the current UI for buying the items in the first place (something we already have as opposed to making an entirely new UI for trading) and programming the subtraction of assets, which apparently isn't too difficult since it already happens whenever you die. Don't get cheeky with me.

It may be possible to be able to liquidate but that would likely require some gimmickry that really deserves a full UI overhaul (even if it is just one word or popup) to accommodate it. Overall it is something to explore with the changes we are restricted to as we move forward and maybe something we can add to the list of 'wants' if the gloves ever come off and we're allowed to take a look under the hood.
don't want a market, don't want liquidation...just want to give stuff to another player.
