Jokes about a 'laser focused ps-3' laser rifle aside, I do wish him best in his new endeavors.

Okay, just what the hell is going on with CCP as a company? There's something brewing in the background.

@Michael Arck
There was also this.
Chief financial officer Joe Gallo and Chief marketing officer David Reid also leave their positions with CCP.

Yea I was reading about that not too long ago on Eurogamer. Was a bit surprised by those two leaving and now CCP Praetorian. I guess the fiscal year report weren't looking good. I just hope in this restructuring that products like EVE, Dust and Project Legion are not overly affected by it.
Good luck to all of them.
EDIT: Joe Gallo the developer or the gangster? LOL!

yeah the other day didn't they shut down an office in san fran? not looking too good tbh but personally i think they got a little to ambitious with their projects based on the staff they have. i would have rather seen 2yrs, 56 staff and $20m spent on dust than an MMO that never even got out the gate. we could very well be playign a far superior game than what we have now with the extra funding and dev power

That's what EVE players were saying about DUST, "Can it and worry about EVE". CCP will most likely do that.

Looks like CCP is looking for a fresh start ...seen this happen few times. Hopefully this means that they going to focus in one thing, instead of trying to do lots of different things. |

From what I've read they will be focusing on EVE. I doubt PL will be green lit and DUST will continue to dwindle down until it's turned off. |

As i understand it, Project Legion will be "part" of EvE as it was first intended.. which is why they calling it "Project" Legion, instead of just "Legion". My guess is that Legion will be integrated into EvE as an expansion. |

Caning the Dust/Legion IP seems like a really bad move for CCP in terms of expanding the potential of the Eve Universe.

From what I've heard, World of Darkness game was completely dismantled too.
Oh don't forget about CCP Pokethulu. He's gone as well.

It's really sad, and I wish him, and everyone else who got let go the best.
Edit:I mean everyone who was let go or resigned. Either way, I wish them the best.

Everybody abandoning ship it looks like, at least those who can see further out than others in CCP. Truly does make me wonder how long this thing is going to keep running.
Why am I still here yet?

My guess from experience in 3d development says they are trimming the fat everywhere so they can focus on 2 things. EVE, thier lifeblood and Valkerie, their last effort.
It's why Legion has been so quiet because they are shifting personnel onto Valkerie so it's ready by launch. They had too many projects on the go and couldn't deliver. Quality over quantity.
They do it to me at work all the time. One show needs modellers because they mismanaged the time for assets and once I'm done there, I'm shifted back to my original production. The main reason for this is upper management in creative industries thinking they are artists, forgetting to actually manage time.
"Wouldn't it be cool if..." Is the most common thing I hear AFTER the episode/movie has been animated and or even rendered.
These are people who've never drawn or taken courses on color wheels or rendering software. Go figure.
