CSM9 Report: Week Eighteen
Townhall
The second CSM9 Townhall took place last night and given the simultaneous running of the ATXII finals, was fairly well attended. A lot of people have asked why it was decided to hold it at the same time. The long and short of it was next weekend would be too late what with attendees travelling to Iceland and not a lot of people tend to be able to make midweek Townhalls. As such, the weekend of the ATXII finals was the best of a bad bunch. I was roped into hosting at the last minute and despite the relatively low turnout and some technical gremlins, we had some fantastic questions. You can listen to the recording here. The questions were varied but mostly predictable with the usual focus on ship rebalancing, nullsec changes and the long term developmental health of the game. It all came in at just around an hour so it is well worth your time to go check it out – especially the wee moment Chitsa and Corbexx had what could charitably be called a ‘difference of opinion’. As we mention in the stream, the next Townhall is likely to be around Eve Vegas time. Before then, Ali plans on restarting her Google Hangouts, Sugar continues with her series of chats on Eve Uni mumble and I intend to grab a couple of Summer Summit attendees here on CZ.Oceanus
The next Eve Online update is named Oceanus and the first version is available on Singularity even as we speak. The key features from this initial patch are as follows: – French Localization – Team TriLambda with a lot of shiny:- New cloaking effect
