Not saying this isn't faster then normal, it just isn't fast enough. But thats my opinion.

I always thought having a steady trickle of new content is better than giant releases, because everything is gradually added, and easier to balance than a giant injection of new stuff to try to balance with everything else at once. Thats what MAG did; changed a bunch of values at once, and then tried to figure out why it wasn't working, rather than individual buffs/ nerfs, or individual new items.

EVE gets 2 big packs of content every year, so once every 6 months. A 6 week cycle is exceptionally fast.

You can complain about the lack of speed when it comes to new content coming out, but consider this. Right now we get 4 weeks of development ever 6 weeks. If say they wanted to release a patch with 1 week of development, it would still take the one week of CCP testing and one week of Sony testing, meaning you would only get 1 week of development every 3 weeks. That's half as much content per week as the current development cycle. Sorry, but I'd rather be patient, wait a bit longer, and get more.

Truth...

Mostly I am just QQing against the need to have Sony QA it, I would rather that only CCP QA'd it and then pushed it out, but thats living in a perfect world I suppose.

Eh. I was in a bad mood from dying to a remote explosive that was thirty feet away... no joke.

" The literal definition is the next time the server comes up for any "period of time" besides that its stretch to say that means a whole new build and to ignore the beta proper that is happening as I type. Lol cant quote anything in here due to the 5 quote max

Well you have to understand Sony doesn't want something to brick people's PS3, and honestly if I was Sony I'd want to check to make sure myself, so I can't blame them. And yeah, REs are kinda annoying, but the upcoming fixes will be nice

Dro2072 Doomheim 35	Posted - 2012.08.03 06:50:00 - [38] - Quote i know when ther is a new build they add and change ALOT but you say they dont need to rush the process however thats what they are going to be doing with the next couple of builds that come out. i want to believe they know what they are doing so i will be patient and see how this plays out. sorry for another post meant to put this in.

Its about you stress testing game mechanics and making bugs surface so that others can have fun on release. There are a lot of people who wish they had access to the closed beta.
Dro2072 Doomheim 35	Posted - 2012.08.03 07:14:00 - [40] - Quote lurch post constructive feedback here not repost something you already put somewhere else or in the same thread its already in. Also how can we stress test the game when we dont even have half the content its supposed to on full release? please dont unintentionally troll thank you have a nice day.

This beta was fun when you could count on something happening every so often The two maps are in Sony's QA hands right now, not with CCP, blame sony if you're going to blame anyone. Also the Million Sp/ISK is for when they reset our avatars, either next week or the week after. Most likely since Eve is updating soon (next week), we assume we might get an update as well. Its beta, its not a game yet. Sorry you're not having fun. CCP is supposed to be able to skip QA I will look for the link edit: nevermind they can skip for small tweaks
