CCP CEO... you really need to play this game yourself. Because i think your employees are lying to you.

Go back and watch some of those hype presentations done by David Reid (CMO).

It was shrill. At the CxO level have know they haven't had much of a game for a long, long time.

At those executive levels few prisoners are taken. The main cash cow has been the steadily improving EVE so I would expect people to try to align themselves to that to shore up their personal support/stature/job and associate themselves with that success. That would also mean avoiding anything much to do with Dust.

CCP will probably have to bring someone in at a high level to fix it or kill it. However, I imagine investors would probably influence that.

The question is whether they want to spend the money to fix it.

Waiting on next patch for a judgement call. That said we all bitched about the festival last year too :-P:-P
ZeHealingHurts HurtingHeals Seituoda Taskforce Command Caldari State 223	Posted - 2013.06.10 09:20:00 - [4] - Quote The game was officially released. The skill system has been normalized instead of the accelerated version it was in beta. There will be additions and patches, but that is a given for any game. I'd much rather it be that way and have something to play and receive updates than them just putting the game out there and never touching it again. Crisis? What? They got work to do (that's for sure), but a crisis? According to you, they have a strong 5 year PLAN. In other words, they know what they intend to do for the next 5 years. I'm not sure what that bit is supposed to be questioning.

True but the game is very rough, with how they have been handling it it seems that CCP dont care about a booming start but a stable increase over the years instead (just like EVE have managed).
