Remember everything is paraphrased and informal and subject to change at a moment's notice.
CCP Nullarbor dropped into open to the PUBLIC IRC to give us a heads up on things he's working on, today's focused subject was that of corp battles.
IRC Channel is #Dust514 Feel free to drop in and talk with fellow Dust players.
Next Patch?
CCP Nullarbor> 'Soon'
How hard are you guys working?
CCP Nullarbor> 'Well its Saturday and 2am here.'
So about FW?
CCP Nullarbor> 'I'm looking at it, its on my screen right now.'
Juicy Bits, Teases, Incentives for FW?
CCP Nullarbor> 'I would tell you but IA would kill me. You're just going to have to wait on the blog.'
Corp Battles?
CCP Nullarbor> 'Well looking at a couple options, but right now I can raise the minimal contract to 2-3 million.'
IRC> not enough 5+ million
CCP Nullarbor> 'How would you like it if the corp battle paid the mercs involved from the ante pool and it allowed individuals to join in?'
IRC> An improvement but more is needed.
CCP Nullarbor> 'How many players do you think is okay for corp battles?'
IRC> Current 8v8 is okay for 'dueling' larger fights need to be blind challenges 16v16 or 24vs24
CCP Nullarbor> 'Takes note, will consider other possible options to making corp battles interesting.'
Why is there an Ante in corp battles?
CCP Nullarbor> 'Because 100% player entities are involved in corp vs corp. They are not generating isk in this activity, we don't want players players to be printing isk in this manner but rather earn isk at the cost of the other corp. We are still looking for more incentives and improvements.'
Database stuff
CCP Nullarbor> 'We're aware that markets, fittings, contacts lists and channel lists load very slowly and its being worked on.'
Corp Taxes
CCP Nullarbor> 'We're bringing it in for both NPCs and customized taxes settable in Player corps, Player corps will have one tax rate setting between both sides.'
After this short conversation CCP Nullarbor clocked out of work for the day. |

CCP Nullarbor drove the conversation so he asked us more questions than we could about non corp war stuff.
As for the PS4 question I would reference you to the 10 year plan statement made by CCP, which indirectly declares they're future aware of new platforms and are always considering the best for the health for the game. If xbox for example where to be not that restrictive they would probably get an xbox client made or if for some odd reason ps4 and eve online feel secure enough would allow the game to move to pc. Hell it would not surprise me if this game winds up on the PS5 one day. |

But if it does get ported, how will CCP make use of the massive hardware? |

Graphics wise most likely but they will always have the least common dominator, if oh say the ps3 cannot support 128 vs 128 but the ps4 can, until the ps3 gets retired you're not going to see that happen. So other things like real buildings blowing up and the sorts you're not going to see until ps3 clients get retired. |

If anyone can make max use of hardware it's ccp, They like melting PC video cards by pushing the boundries, so trust them to push the ps4 hardware when it comes out. they also have a history of supporting multipul clients, they did it in eve for 4 years when the went to the trinity graphics engine. |

Unlike some other 10 year old mmo I know of, eve online has managed to remodel all of their stuff 3x already and they're about to do it again real soon with V4.
CCP has a weird obsession with looking good, and doing it in ways that no other game company would consider.
Take this picture for example
http://web.ccpgamescdn.com/newssystem/media/3012/3286/14_1024.jpg
This is one of a dozen new nebula in Eve Online.
This new background in New Eden started its life as a 3d model. Several TERRABYTES big. Because it was a model it allowed CCP to generate 2d sky map pictures within the nebula that was actually relative to the location of a star system within that nebula. For now its only regional based but we can hope they upgrade it to constellation based then eventually star system based. |

You'd think with the amount of complaints on how developers are not talking with the community this thread would be more at the top. |

I realize a lot of people are bored and feel communication is lacking, but I think CCP has been pretty consistent joining podcasts and laying out several things they are working on. Racial drop suits and reworked skill tree for suits, planetary conquest, improved FW experience, new weapons... and they have been very clear about focus on core mechanics as a springboard to new features. Community feedback is gathered largely through the forums. We have an entire section dedicated to it.
I think CCP gets that they can't make everyone happy. DUST is ambitious, and their first console effort. It's strange to think the game is about a year into beta and we already have bitter vets. lulz. |

I been in other betas and ccp has been more talkative than other developers are after post launch even.
I mean there is another mmo I played and they don't even put patch notes out at all. I have to goto some die-hard fan-site that does server dumps to find patch notes. |

Another thing Null said is being worked on is giving us a reason to give a **** about any of this FW stuff. Dust players with no EVE experience have no motivation for any of this, and I guess they're going to try to fix that. I mentioned it had to go beyond seeing the star map change around ownership status, and he seemed to indicate that it would be more than just that.
He said he's working on a dev blog about the FW stuff too I think, hopefully that doesn't take 6 months to surface. |

Yeah we keep poking him and he keeps saying they're waiting on a few things before they publish one, its mostly written according to him. |
