What happened to monitoring the situation? There is no way you can make an educated decision in less than a week worth of data. It was very clearly a decision made and claiming to care what about was lip service to the players. I'm sure 2k less concurrent users would have been some useful info if you actually was trying to look at what happened.

That's an in character news piece, no one has released any information saying this would be forever.

It's a test, we're still collecting data, and it's far too early to say if this is going to be permanent.

Might want to unrustle your jimmies for a while there bud.

I can't trust you. If it s the case they must take a lot of drug to resist to the commit hommicid each time you make a change who burn all model they make.

No more seriously, i really want to see what they are doing with the ammount of data we generate (and do'nt said MER i will laught, the mer raw data contains a shitons of information, we could litterraly make a dashboard of eve activity ship by ship with that, and i'm sure you have a lot more granularity in information.)

Do you have simulation of eve universe with player behaviour, make some data about kind of player and isolate some interesting group (i have see some video of a fabnfest with some video about player activity, but i mean go deeper in the analysis).

I know some people (beacause it's reddit) will think i flame CCP , not the case i really want to know what they are doing, at witch point you could use data actually. Beacause it's intersting for people who love manage play with data.

​Believe it or not, we tend to make data driven decisions with input from our data team, so they're usually fine with it.

We have literally hundreds of internal dashboards that we use to monitor TQ, the community and the health of the game. If someone wants a specific one, all we do is ask, or ask for a pool of data, and we can get it. Sharing is pretty liberal internally, and it's awesome to get whatever you need. ​

Simulations rarely take into account how insanely randomly you guys behave. We can predict what's going to happen with reasonable accuracy, but you guys usually screw that up for us and throw a curve ball. :P ​

Our data team are super visible and super busy most of the time internally - they're doing everything from assisting executive management with data requests down to helping community out with stuff too :)

Falcon are you at CCP in any way concerned with corrupting your own data from the blackout, by giving players the information that it is a test / temporary?

Hawthorne effect - Factory experiment for reference on the subject.

Not really, the lakc of duration pretty much covers any concerns we have.
