You originally said that the new weekly SP system with the increased soft cap was to be deployed in today's downtime. An hour later and I had a look at the same thread.
And this has been posted:
"Update: The weekly skill point system implementation will not be deployed during tonight's downtime"
Why...

Something broke? or something else more important happened, remember were attached to 500k odd PAYING customers who are not in beta, things need to be made right first time these days, theres no flicking it on an off again every hour till they get it right |

The thing is though why get to the point when you announce it will happen and then at the very last minute go against your word.
Whats the damn reason behind this abrupt U-turn. |

yeapers
Not as many players as that as most eve players have more than one account. I personally have 3 with 8 toons across them. Of course, only three are taining and "main". others are market alts, spies and cyno ships.
Pretty much every pirate in eve will have a high sec shopping alt and maybe a cash cow too.
Gotta say, think the cap is a bad idea anyways. but meh... what do i know?
I only say this froma 100% personal veiw. soons as my cap is hit, i tend to stop playing. |

something broke or something more important came along that needed to be set into the wild by itself first.
you change too many things at once and then you dont know what caused the problem, and thats not a good place to be. Most of us are dying for this to happen, but it will take as long as it takes. chill out and spend some aurum on some implants to help boost your sp's :)

I'm sure their is a legit reason for them not changing the sp cap. Their is no need to panic, so what if they said it at the last minute is it really that big of a deal? Life isn't over just be patient and wait for that sweat ass new sp cap.  |

The game is in beta and very complex with links to a stable game with guys who whine and complain at the drop of a hat. Eve is CCPs cash cow and we are really unpaid game testers, you can't expect CCP to risk TQ and Eve for Dust. So you have to give them room to makes changes as they see fit. If a change in Dust affects Eve the player base (most of whom are hardcore PC gamers and don't even have a PS3 and look upon console gamers as soon sort of ******** pond life) CCP will get sooooo much ****, it's just not worth it. |

Actually, that's not very much considering the length of time of developing, the salaries of the developers, and the overheads.
It should pick up though.  |

There was a last minute problem that cropped up that prevented deployment of the change today as planned. We are working to resolve this problem and have the change implemented as soon as possible. However, we cannot allow changes to go through that will cause other problems to occur. |

Ahh, I meant that in a good way. I've always thought (as a past eve player who since kept up with game developments from time to time) that they should charge more, seeing as all the updates are free. I'd just never thought exactly about how much they make. To be fair, if they can make DUST a stable/balanced build with a clear plan of enhancements/additions, i wouldnt even mind paying a monthly fee to play it. |

If not that the sound system gives them reason for the antacids.
You obviously have never been in Software Development. Or supported a work in progress with many man years to go before they sleep*.

I only wish haters and complainers knew how many hours CCP works on Dust and EVE in a given day. I know I want no part of software development. I'm not asking people to kiss CCP's ass, just show a little respect. It goes a long way.

i'm happy participating in the BETA, so long as CCP is honest with us.
actions speak louder then words.
the sound update made the game worse, yet they say for our consideration they wont introduce something new for fear it might worsen the game? too little, too late
if they undo the sound update, they will prove their intent to ensure they only fix the problems, not add them. even unintentinally. |

Not quite right; CCP made $66 Million in 2011. A figure which has been growing at an annual compound growth rate of 53%. CCP has made upward of $300 Million from EVE Online over its lifetime from the time of those numbers.
Enough derailing though; yay for weekly soft caps! |

Has it been said which day of the week is the dividing line for each weeks cap? (Or to be more precise, which day's downtime.) |
