Project shoot-a-mabob-thingy....

This is an immediate and off the cuff, just after reading the 'dev update', waffle post so bear with me.....


The latest dev update on Project Nova is a good thing to see.

Acting as they did, changing as much as they did, even if only seeing small change after small change, to get to what they showed at Vegas, could have gone differently if they asked the community. Could have been told/warned that they were in a sinking ship.By bringing in community members to their inner circle to ask, hypothetical questions. Like what if we removed planets, reduced team sizes, took away all but 6 weapons. That kind of stuff.  But what do fans know!
Small change after small change may have been reasoned by them to be acceptable; But small change after small change presenting a vastly different animal compared to Dust.


So I'm glad it's back to the drawing board. I'm glad they will pause, take stock and then move on after reflection.

But this is CCP and I'm sure it won't be long before their weird working ways alter perceptions and lead them straight back to pissing fans off.

Time will tell. With any luck they'll bring back planets and you know, project legion as a base to move on from.


I bet CCP took the "rouge wedding" as an affront from fans against the concept of a "new" game rather than actually seeing it as flipping off their then active FPS playerbase.....
In a way it was almost like introducing your wife (Dust 514) to the hot blonde your going to run away with (legion).....
Now we don't have Dust, don't have legion and that other on again off again project tease, a long distant work in progress that won't touch any base....

I think the CCP FPS needs a lot more counselling, or therapy.....

Either way, CCP may wait for the FPS but the playerbase, the community, will they wait or whittle away even more.

CCP, franchise FPS hope and dream killers extraordinaire. LMAO
