Heh. Imagine doing it with a pure volunteer organization of a hundred something people. Part time, no paychecks, the only work I can get from people is what I can convince them they want to do. I'm getting okay at this leadership thing. (We have a design document. You don't WANT to know the pain putting one of those together is for a MMO.)

We need something juicy. Our sources are drying up.

Derek is not producing, with the FBI calling shenanigans
Ghost dev peaced out for the safety of hisself
CR is dead to the world, working on his FMV game
CIG's productivity is near zero, no new features to break
Stimpire is cringeworthy and played out

Guys, where will the comedy come from?

I'm not too worried..yet. Eventually, 2.2 has to hit.

I think the real dry spell will hit around June. CIG seems to be in a period of weening off the content/open development.

Unfortunately the heavy handed moderation of the official forums and reddit is drying up sources of comedic nature.

2.2 will hit the PTU but won't be "released" until March. This will still count as a monthly release.

Yeah, serious poo poo has happened there. Here as well. There was the one dude who wanted information on different ammo types and then killed at least 1 person using the info he was given here. Not to mention one of Goon Fleets leaders harassing a guy non stop in eve, and then elsewhere, until the guy considered suicide and the goon fleet guy, ON STAGE with CCP told him he should do it if he cant handle a little harassment after months and months of continued harassment in and out of Eve.

SA has had its share of serious poo poo happen.

Part of the comedy is that DS and CR and so much alike. The are both enormous swinging dicks that are intoxicated by their own words and creative thoughts. Their assumptions are reality until proven otherwise.

What makes Smart the hero is that he's not taking money for an impossible fantasy.

Ben's body is rapidly approaching the limit where it becomes so big that it fails catastrophically. One might say it's not too big to fail.

I read it. It was definitely a fluff piece from someone who doesn't really understand the industry enough to ask difficult questions, and given that CIG is nominally a 'british' institution they definitely lobbed some softballs in that interview.

I'm not watching, but is he also still constantly playing on his loving phone? I get that this is a video game, but the lack of professionalism with everything they do triggers me. They are going on air to talk to the people who pay the bills and they dress like slobs, keep their sunglasses on, eat on camera, play on their phones, fall asleep, talk to people off camera, turn and have conversations with each other, and just overall don't seem to give a poo poo about what they do.

It looks bad even for a High School production ('Boom goes the dynamite!').

The packages primarily went to existing package owners as they got a discount. The citizen numbers didn't go up nearly enough to support the notion it was to new players. The free fly weekend is the easiest way to convince someone not to buy into the janky mess.
