I made a comment to myself a couple months ago that the issues in game that are going to be fixed Soon(TM) are going to affect alliances, corporations and the general player now. Why is it that bugs in Eve now that can cause the demise of an alliance(s) despite their best efforts are not fixed sooner rather than later?
POS warefare - boring and with current developments can be useless for defenders. LAG - <-- all caps because it is a HUGE problem. If my personal experience hadn't been how it has, I would have left the game a long time ago. Fleet battles are pointless most of the time and that goes for either defender or attacker. I hate the whole, "were working to improve..yadayada". These issues have been in game for a long time. I thought bookmarks were going to fix this??
Forethought - Does CCP actually think about the bug...er, I mean "features" they introduce into Eve before they make a move? Nanobs's? Lowering POS defense effectiveness? There are so many, I can't even get them straight in my head enough to type them.
Is money the only motivator? - Do you CCP, only make decisions based on money? Like, let's say there were a bunch of people that exploit game bugs together, do you let them be for the most part because changing the game so that they can't do what they do would mean less subscribers?
When CCP messes up, why don't you fess up and change what you screwed up? - Point in case. GM was supposed to reset sov in a system recently, the alliance offlined all pos's out of desperation. Why are they now fu**ed over because of just trying to rectify the situation? Why are GM's so cold most of the time? Why are cheaters still working for CCP? Why allow the community to lambaste an entire alliance(s) because of your F-up? Your lack of communication and cold sholder for as long as it occurred allowed the public to form a mob mentality.
Was the name of the current release "Revelations" named such because you realize that your time is running out and you are unrepentant thus sealing your (Eve's) fate as just another "game gone by"?
I could go on but I am sure that we will get the same PR answers just like politicians give. "Keep the masses guessing, tell them what they want to hear" and then do what you want.
I promise, as soon as another space mmo comes along, I am gone from Eve, most likely even before that since I have been planning on it for around 2 months now and have been working to get my corp into a position where I feel comfortable leaving them with thing's to do. By the way, this means 3 accounts are leaving, 1 has been playing since 03, the other 05 and the other more recent.
And nope, my junk is going to corp, so go get your own stuff.
