Edited by: Morar Santee on 27/09/2010 00:17:02 At first, I wasn't going to bother logging in to support this (despite the fact it's the most amusing thread I've seen in a long time), since the CSM is a "serious" institution. After reading the meeting minutes, I made up my mind.
This thread illustrates perfectly what is wrong with with the current game development, and to see it being treated in such a fashion is absolutely horrible. I don't think anyone's seriously suggesting we should be able to order Pizza through EVE by using PLEXes, or that development time should be used to enable such a feature (though it would make for an interesting promotion gimmick). I do give people posting here the benefit of doubt and enough credit to assume that most of them don't want to order pizza (via PLEX), but are making fun of a messed up dev. cycle that introduces new, bug-ridden content that sees little love afterwards. And then, PLEXes are suddenly supposed to become a backdoor to do micro-transactions.
There's faction warfare, there's our for all intents and purposes disabled address book, there's still socket closed issues for nŠ people, every once in a while the same amount of players can't even launch the game after a patch, and if you look through this forum section alone, I'm sure you'll stumble over... uhm... one or two more? Yes?
Supporting this ridiculous notion and bringing it to CCP's attention might've been a wake-up call when it comes to customer preferences. But I guess it's easier to pretend you have more important stuff to do.

I guess there is a negative example for everything. Selective quoting also helps to win the interwebs, I heard. That way, the one example of CCP investing substantial time into further developing a somewhat unpolished feature (and writing a dev blog about it, to make sure people have something to point to when the topic comes up again - which it always does, sooner or later) is in no way connected to the four examples I already mentioned of where it is unfortunately not happening to the degree of producing a noticeable effect (and of course there are countless more). Almost like it didn't happen. (By the way, this is where I would insert a smiley that rolls its eyes if I was just a tad cooler.)
That doesn't mean I don't appreciate what is being done to improve the game. When I read rockets were finally being fixed, I rubbed my eyes and was very, very happy. But how long did that take to happen, how many threads and players spending time asking, pleading, crying? And why wasn't that a priority over adding new shiney featurez that ended up breaking other parts of the game when introduced?
As much as I like EVE and think CCP is awesome for creating it and keeping it running, they do sometimes have their priorities wrong. That they're planning to introduce backdoor micro-transactions with PLEXes is a step in the wrong direction. Ordering pizza for PLEXes wouldn't even be a bad thing (albeit slightly ******ed, mind) as it doesn't have much of an impact on the game itself, except driving PLEX prices up. But it serves perfectly to illustrate the ridiculous scope of it all.

Your first post here went on a long tirade about what was wrong with current game development at CCP - how they would introduce a less than stellar feature and then leave it to languish. So I pointed out a feature that directly contradicted you that was in the current game development cycle. You think that past features should be iterated on - we get that. Hell, maybe we even agree. But they can't all be iterated on now.
And while I don't see eye to eye with you on the 'microtransactions', I'll let that alone.

I used to like the CSM. Turns out they're all a right bunch of humourless munters. In game.
Have you considered launching a coup Mazz?

Wow, a micro-transaction option that doesn't screw up the game. Name one MMO that started with 'reasonable' micro-transactions where management didn't expand it to the detriment of the game.

+1, lighten up you miserable ****ers. Especially you, Vuk Lao. You just lost a lot of respect from me.
Mazz is cool for bringing it up though, and just earned my votes for next year. Diedra can have one I guess, seeing as he did vote yes.

Funny how that CSM conversation turned out, they actually judged the proposal by the topic alone.
Imagine CCP worked with a fast food chain which was popular in most parts of the world and delivered, if it became common knowledge a person could buy stuff from the chain using ISK the game would become more popular.
Its like a restaurant, you dont make money of the food, you make it of the alcohol, so sell the food and make sure they drink. In eves case food would be plex for pizza which is what will attract alot of players, then when they play eve they will stay careless of if they like or dislike eve.
With so many obese people wanting free food, this would be perfect and a cool feature with incarna, I think the CSM need to look into this and stop judging a thread literally by its topic.
Just because Blizzard havent done this idea doesnt mean it should be ignored, think out of the box!

This should go well with Incarna. Walk into a Pizza chain in a station somewhere, place your order and 5 minutes later your door bell rings :D

Edited by: Kaisek on 28/01/2011 12:16:47 I have heard worse ideas and although far fetched It COULD work, Im sure It'd be good for removing ISK from the EVE economy.
And who doesn't like Pizza?
