DUST Search - CPM, how patient should we be?

We'll keep trying to convince CCP to be more forthcoming, and bluntly I understand the "be patient" BS is getting stale.

Unfortunately the things we hope you will get to see ASAP aren't ours to share per se, even if we were allowed to give a full brief on what's up, it would be far more appropriate to have Rattati and his team be the ones to give the good word.

If you've had it up to your eyebrows with the quiet urging for oeace and patience, and are ready to move on I understand.

I don't simply leak info because I personally take my given word lethally seriously. When I am given information in confidence I keep that confidence even when I don't like it unless the promise was extracted under false pretenses. This rule I apply not just to CCP but friends, family and even other players.

That's why I am very hard to get to commit to certain things. If I give my word it's on. I can only ask that you respect that I won't violate that trust.

But the instant I get the "ok" to share something, you're going to see it pretty much the instant I can get my claws on a keyboard.

If CCP has something to announce before October 23rd, it will be announced on the forums. If CCP has something to announce between the 23rd and the 25th by some coincidence, it will be announced on the forums. And if CCP has something to announce after the 25th, it will also be announced, you guessed it, on the forums. Disclaimer: I am no longer a current CPM, but I doubt anyone's feelings on that sort of thing have changed much between then and now. CPM Confirmed.

It has just been so persistently silent from the Red/Blue posters (CCP) lately that I made the hopeful assumption they were holding back on much needed information until EVE Vegas or Fanfest. I guess?! it's good to know that, in fact, they have nothing at all to say to us. Right? Geez Sadly in gaming there is a lot of work that goes on which either never sees the light of day or becomes something else before it's in any demonstrable state. Logistically this is understandable, socially this is deeply frustrating and galling. As per the directive from CCPs CEO only work that is in a 'confirmed' state, one that can be delivered on both in a technical and in a fiscal sense, is announced. In essence what this means is that we get announcements which are plans not hopes as a general rule. And that's a good thing IMO, what isn't so grand is that this also means we get fewer announcements at all. I'd like there to be more of a middle ground reached and employed at some point, and I advocate for that, but we're not there yet. 0.02 ISK Cross CPM mail me your feedback and remember to have fun!

Sadly a pub squad, even if we have every CPM running one, is only going to allow for 21 players (beyond the CPMs) to be involved which is a comparatively small part of the player base. These are the moments I wish that Dust were less of a lobby game and more of an open world game, we could really get folks involved that way. Also, getting the new folks into chats with the Learning Coalition and Dust Uni folks would be good if any of them haven't found those chats yet. It's a plus to have helpful folks around who will answer questions 0.02 ISK Cross CPM mail me your feedback and remember to have fun!
