Last week CCP Games proved fifa 15 coins xbox that it's still an indie studio at heart when CEO Hilmar Veigar Pétursson issued a formal letter of apology to the entire EVE Online community. In the letter, he admitted that development had been purposefully shifted away from the in space features players wanted. He went on to take full responsibility for the ensuing drama surrounding the forced early release of Incarna and the fumbled cash shop introduction. Hilmar then laid out plans to turn EVE's development around and set it back in a direction that current players will appreciate. Today CCP continued show its commitment to this new development direction with a special reactivation offer for returning players.

Most account holders whose subscriptions lapsed during or before the Summer drama have been sent an email offering a special rate of $4. 95 US for 30 days of subscription time.

Playing the game this week has ultimately been a verbal tug of war between two separate but equally important groups. There are the players who can't get in and hold very strong opinions about not being able to get in, and there are the players who can get in and are just playing the game. So it's impossible to talk about the launch week without talking about the launch issues and the servers... which also requires a bit of perspective on MMOs as a whole. Let's just blame the Ascians. Error 1017Let me start off by saying something that could be seen as bragging fifa 14 coins ps3 when it really isn't. I have sat through a lot of MMO launches.
