I have been a fan of CCP since I discovered EVE some 8 years ago. Various life and technology reasons have kept kept me from being a diehard EVE player since that day. Lack of internet, later a lack of PC. I was very excited when i first heard about DUST, and eventually got a PS3 just for this game. Recently, I have been looking forward to getting a new PC and returning to EVE. I was invested in the idea that I even planned to reopen my accounts before I aquired a pc just to get the jump on skilling and letting my friend use my fighter pilot in the meantime to explore that aspect of eve since he was doing his toon as an indy. Not to mention, there is the new Dust war profiteer pack. I want it. But.... DUST is just BROKEN lately. The last 2 weeks have been near infuriating. Login failures, crazy glitches, freezes that can be recreated over and over by all players. And guess what? Its not just DUST. My friend tells me the same login failures have kept him off EVE. Well, there went my faith in CCP. I was actually convincing myself that half this crap was those hackers still messing with psn. My buddy had to burst my bubble on that one. And what is CCP saying about all this? Nothing. They are talking about roadmaps, changes to pc, bringing back old HAVs... But they are absent and silent on this issue. You fix what is broken before you add more crap to brake it further. I spent $70 on dust in the last month. I wont be giving another dime to CCP untill they get their crap together. No War Profiteer pack. No reactivation of my 2 Eve accounts. Talk to us CCP. Take care of your players and they will take care of you. Right now, I feel like you are disrespecting your players, and im not alone in that.

Im fully aware of this. My problem is CCP'S silence on the issues. All the other companies you mentioned post updates to their players about issues. CCP has only ignored its players. Ive been reading the posts, and still see no responses from them. That is the issue. I can deal with stupid flaws, I cant give my money to a company that refuses to acknowledge its players pleas for answers. Until now, I have always stood behind CCP and encouraged others to. No more blind loyalty. In the face of the competition CCP has on the horizon, they should be talking to us instead if giving us the silent treatment.

If they lock it, it is because they dont want negative cimments about their company or game all over the face of their forum. I get that, hell it wouldnt even upset me. It's an understandable move. I do NOT, however, understand the silence. It is not a sound tactic for dealing with the playerbase. My loyalty to the company and their games is being tested. Its been 2 weeks. It is unreasonable to go this long without so much as "we are aware of the ussues, and are working to resolve them" One week CCP. After that, I file you away with DICE and Blizzard: you will cease to exist in my world.

Betthy, I know. CCP's cutting edge tech is part of what kept me coming back for more, as well as why I have said for years that they are perhaps the best around. The things they have done for the gaming community, and even for their iwn country, were qualities that I have always admired about CCP. During my days as an EVE player, CCP was always on top of keeping us informed, good or bad. And I never had to go any further than the official website/forums to see that. I dont use Twitter. I should not have to go to an outside source to find this information. A company's official website/forums is the traditional place to go. Many of the people I play DUST with dont use twitter, some dont even use Facebook. Social media should be a company's seconday form of announcments. How many besides myself have posted in these forums looking for answers? If you can tweet, but ignore the posts in your own official forums, on your own official website, then you are neglecting your primary customer base. So yes, in a way you are absolutely correct, im not looking. I expect to find this informatiin where it should be, not on third party websites.
You mistake me for someone who wants to have no faith in CCP. This is absolutely not the case In a way, you could say that I am heartbroken to even be feeling the way I am currently feeling about CCP. To me, a 35 year old gamer who have been playing games since I had my Tandy 1000 sx PC at the age of 5, CCP have become my heroes. But those heroes have let me down. Im here expressing that. If I didnt care about CCP, I would never have wasted my time with this thread. I would have just deleted DUST a week ago, and never looked back. I also once loved DICE, but Ill never buy another of their games again. That was not a descision i came to lightly. I dint desire to be pressed to it here, because CCP is the last game company I have any loyalty or respect for.

I still stand by my communication complaint. It took way to long for them to start posting. That said, I am a day late, as these posts were made yesterday (easily missed as all were replies in a thread). Still, an apology on my part is warranted, especially since CCP has publicly made one. Im glad to know you guys are on it, but..... Its freaking Christmas now ( in some time zones, tomorrow for me) Things seem stable. go home to your families and work in it after. Merry Christmas!
