Aquaphor healing ointment protects rough, cracked dry ass skin due to extensive lag.

On topic: OK so we get fix in 18 months but you want a vote NOW?

EDIT: Cant believe this thread is still going strong.

Who do you think is going to win the award?

I don't know. I never registered to vote there or even looked at the nominations. Who cares anyways? It's just some random internats site wanting to drum up some attention to the overall EU gaming industry. Even if eve won all it would mean is another little "yo we at x internats site think eve is cool" blurb for the marketers to use.

On the first page.

Might as well keep the discussion relatively on topic, eh?

Did they unpin the thread and hope it too would lag out?

Just posting again to applaud the CCP team. Refit my carrier earlier off a corp mate's ship and only half of my modules were actually online, half were showing offline and giving an error when I tried to online them (this module is already online, LOL WUT), and only jumping my ship to a station, removing the modules, and reattaching them to the ship fixed the problem.

Here's what I don't fully understand. Just what will be so captivating about WIS that after a week or two and the "Gee Whiz" factor wears off? Other than giving us a new way to spin in station I'm not sure 18 months more of concentrated effort on Incarna is only going to give us nothing more than pretty planets when we warp to a station. Will we be able to kill each other inside a station? Doesn't sound like it. Will we be able to prevent someone from boarding his ship? Will we be able to steal a docked ship? Doesn't sound like it either.

So what will be left after you've walked around, seen all the sights and bought a station T-shirt? Anything compelling? CCP might want to ask itself what makes a game great. What holds peoples interest? Why does a top down game like Starcraft become so much fun and people keep playing it for years? Is it new shiny or is it how the game is played? Eve is without a doubt a very playable game that has the capacity to hold our interests as shown by pre-Dominion game play. Unfortunately layers of new shiny were added and broke what is Eve's premier attraction.

Sometimes as a company you have to realize that things need to be scrapped, reshaped and go on from there. With Eve the player base knows what needs to be done and it is unfortunate that CCP does not have the clarity of sight to see what it's customers already know. CCP needs to understand that without revamping the game code itself, that adding ever more layers to a aging game engine is not going to improve anything. Spending time on another "improvement" like Incarna will attract some people but eventually word will spread that WIS has no real game play value. Then when the plebes actually try to jump in a ship and try to experience what Eve is really meant to be, they will abandon ship and go to a game that is not trying to be a fusion of many different things.

Eve is first and foremost about flying ships. If one cannot do that satisfactorily, then in the end Eve will spiral downward as other games are developed that will do it better. As in motorcycle riding and taking a spill, the question is not if but when. Fix your game CCP.

I sincerely hope that one will be able to turn the Incarna stuff off if one wants because if it becomes a prerequisite to being in station, things are going to get ugly when the hype wears off and people want to go back to playing internet spaceships.
