Thanks for this latest update Hans and congrats on the anniversary.
I think one thing that is becoming more and more apparent is the disconnect between the marketing team and the devs and the community. They clearly have no idea what's going on in the game or any concept of what the community wants or appreciates. Someone really needs to get them out of the little bubble they clearly work in and give them a good slap with a wet fish to wake them up. And the poorly chosen aur item sales are not the only issue here - having a competitive tournament during a time of a fast changing game during this new quicker release timetable is a bad idea in general too. This community does not need more things to worry about while we're trying to get used to changes in the way the game plays.
I hope your continued efforts will break down the walls around some of the CCP teams and we'll all get the interaction with them that you're working towards. Good job so far. |

Thanks for finally getting the update down Hans but I'm sad to say I only really see bad news here. That said, I'm pretty much on the same page as the CPM in terms of the things you've reported here - most importantly (and I've been saying this all along): spit and polish is all very good and well but at the end of the day you're still just left with a shiny shoe like all the others out there already. Basically, this game really quite urgently needs to start capitalising on the things that will make it unique and stand out from the plethora of other shooters available and coming out soon.
It's the Eve link that draws many people to this game. It's the promise of big battles that actually mean something in some wider context and affect the game outside of the battle. What we have is a lobby shooter with virtually no consequences or wider context. That is not what people signed up for and that is not what will keep people playing, even if the mechanics and core gameplay are frickin' perfect.
As it stands this game currently has almost zero USP. It claims a huge one but that's just a distant dream by the sounds of things. CCP needs to start making Dust into something more or people will stop believing the dream will ever get here - how much patience can any playerbase really have? |

On another note...
Heinrich Jagerblitzen wrote:You also might have noticed some rotations in activity levels amongst CPM members, as RL obligations pull us our separate directions. Nova Knife and myself have been back to work and putting some long hours in the last couple of weeks, as you can see by my infrequent postings lately. Laurent Cazaderon, on the other hand, is back from vacation abroad and once again engaging both CCP and the community in full force.
I only see three CPM names there. IWS has announced his expected drop in activity, though is still around here in places.
I could have sworn there were more than 4 on the CPM... |

Id like to hear what everyone in the CPM has been up to lately. It's great getting there occasional reports from Hans but it would be reassuring to know that every member is pulling their weight and nobody needs replacing because they're doing diddly squat. Can we get each CPM member to write up their own little summary of recent activity please? |

Good news is I'm no longer unemployed (only had three weeks left before my assistance ran out, so I'd been near-panicking with a wave of applications)...bad news is that I continue to disappoint on the blogging front. Getting a report written is my afternoon project tomorrow, thanks for your patience. o7
Good on ya. I know what you feel like - I started a new job (after 16 months unemployed) last month and my Dust time has been really hurting ever since :( |

They posted what they wanted to say in the Internal forums. (The ones you guys can't see)
There's a chance it might be getting released today or tomorrow, but I hope to god not. The draft they showed us was utterly offensive (at least to me) and said none of the things we flat out told them we expected to see. It was generic and wishy-washy.
I (and I believe Hans) urged them not to post it without tweaking it, because it was an utter steaming pile. So... we'll see what comes of it. Thanks for giving it to us straight. Much appreciated. Sad to say this, but i'm beginning to feel like you CPM peeps are babysitting CCP. i lols 'til i cries.
Seriously? How? I just... words... escape me... How much time does CCP need to get basic simple stuff like this right? Even remotely right? Just right enough not to have to be told that it's not good enough even by the people they picked to be player representatives? I can't understand any of this. That makes me sad. |
