Hilmar, in the opening paragraphs there, you made it sound like a big product party. Not sure if that was intentional. But those are not cool. FanFest is, though. |

Edited by: TorTorden on 26/02/2011 15:45:10Well, I'm acually going this year and since I was a little drunk when getting the tickets I arrive two days early and stay for a full week. Im even going to dual task this and celebrate my 30th birthday  at the same time (couple of weeks early but close enough). And having been around since 06 I'l probably bump into someone I have either shared a corp or ammo with  Originally by: Vyktor Abyss Eve fanfest: Too many dixx on the dancefloor

Wish I could go, but financially it's not an option at the moment unfortunately. I'm also a little hesitant given all the promotion of alcohol abuse that seems to go with EVE at times.  However, the "following as closely as possible" part has me intrigued. In the past I've bought so-called "virtual tickets" for Blizzcon, which allowed me to watch (live) streams of all the presentations and panels, which I very much enjoyed. Keeping my fingers crossed CCP has something similar in store for the EVE Fanfest!  |

I dont think they actually promised it, they said words to the effect of "we'd love to be able to give you this"  these other vids tho will make good screen saver |

Hidden in a secret vault deep within the volcanic substrata of Iceland, guarded by death elves and fire puffins, never to see the light of day again. The files were just way too big to work as a screensaver, so the guys put in some extra effort to make a larger looping video. |

I'm looking forward to the news article where someone lets drop they are a botter and get their ass kicked up between their ears.
Also, there has been some major bull**** since last fanfest, including "18 months," "quantity generates more sales over quality," the failure of spacebook, the failures of PI, and a few other bastard things. I look forward to reading the news of people who smuggle in some produce to throw at their least favorite devs.
Bitterness and cynicism towards blatant propaganda aside, there are definitely plenty of devs who deserve to never have to buy their own drinks again. |

Well I for one will be there and I am hoping to meet a lot of players I have talked with over the years.
Figured I had to experience fanfest at least once :)

Ofc, we were conditioned to be skeptical towards all "awesome" stuff you guys hyped. Just look at the PI introduction last fanfest and then compare that to what PI is now. Also I wonder if "we'll iterate on that" will actually mean something other than an abandoned feature. Btw, confirming my presence at FF  |

OK, I do not drink, smoke, care for loud parties, or particularly enjoy PvP. What is there for people like at fanfest? |
