The Malta Conference, anyone?
We have a place where we can tie customers' feedback directly with what that customer is doing with our product. Should we use that? Maybe we could even run some basic analytics.

Nah, let's use a forum where you can make sock puppets on a whim and use up votes to create an echo chamber. Also you don't need to be a customer to give us customer feedback there.

Isn't the only reason CCP have to depend on reddit because they killed their own forums with over moderation?

Speaking of CCPs incompetence and dying game, Elite Dangerous is currently 70% off on steam for both the base game and DLC. That means you can have the whole thing for $20. You know, if your into space trading and MMOs and that sort of thing.....

Elite Dangerous also just deleted a shitload of player assets on accident in a patch release that is bad even by Frontier's dismal standards, as a reminder that any game in space is bad.

You have a very weird definition of working as even to this day when you drop in on the signal of a wingmate its a diceroll on whether it puts you into their instance or not.

no man's sky is a lot of fun with the most recent patch but it's basically a single-player game

i figure i'm gonna get bored of it soonish given that i have set up my infinite money generator so i basically have some exploring and making a massive gently caress-off base before i've done most of it but it's a fun game

I haven't had this issue in a long time. But we also generally play on a private server so maybe it's an issue with open.

Heck, I even got in an instance with 100+ people for the DW2 launch. That had issues with the jump out, though...

Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
Is there any tangible details on an actual release date for Eve Echoes or does anyone have access and think it's alright?

A Chinese developer has released a highly serviceable mobile EVE clone called Second Galaxy and all it makes me want to do is play EVE.

Allowing people to passively mine activated indium is the closest thing I can think of to just making poo poo free. I'm currently trying to finish out the trophy on the PS4 and need to do a run in Survival, and then Permadeath but because the game runs like complete poo poo on console since the last update you can't even play permadeath because you never know if the ground is completely rendered when you exit vehicles. 100% of my Perma runs have been ended by the console loving me.

Is Reddit the bitter vet complaint station or what? Maybe they really do believe Eve is the worst game ever, but holy poo poo the constant crying I read on there is ridiculous.

How can you "sell" a wormhole? Couldn't anyone with more guys just go in and take it from you if they want?

You sell it by giving them the warp-in instead of someone finding it eventually.

It's less tedious than finding a good hole to live in, when someone is just offering it up for some isk there are plenty that'll buy if it's the type they want and you have infrastructure to pass on

Yes, but also if you find a good pulsar/wolf there are people that will pay for the active entrance. You aren't selling to good/establish groups in this instance, you're selling to pubbies that usually want to try their hand at it or are trying to get back into w space and can't be assed to do the work themselves. It's not the norm.

that's what i understand it released as, but they've put out several large content patches. i only started playing it after the most recent one. the fighting, however, is still...not good...and yeah it's mostly an explore/build/upgrade/repeat sort of thing
