| 3s | hello everyone hi |
|---|---|
| 7s | [Applause] |
| 10s | how are we all today |
| 12s | rough |
| 13s | not rough |
| 15s | well i hope your hogwarts are about to |
| 17s | are manageable at least |
| 19s | um i'm ccp sledgehammer i'm here with |
| 22s | ccpa device and ccp calliope uh we're |
| 25s | all from team odyssey |
| 27s | um we're also going to be introducing |
| 29s | team equinox to the stage after this for |
| 31s | more chat about the character |
| 32s | progression and career progression |
| 35s | but we're here to talk to you about how |
| 36s | we're improving the experience for |
| 38s | newbies and eve online at the very |
| 39s | beginning |
| 41s | so this is team odyssey |
| 44s | the fine folks you see before you are |
| 46s | recent and current members of the team |
| 48s | we're multidisciplinary |
| 50s | that's part of the academy segment of |
| 52s | eve online |
| 54s | alongside team equinox and team |
| 57s | pathfinder this collection of teams is |
| 59s | working closely with one another to |
| 61s | improve the experience of eve online for |
| 63s | new players |
| 64s | odyssey was formed in january 2020 |
| 67s | we're a storyline content team that's |
| 69s | been tasked with creating a new |
| 71s | experience for our players coming into |
| 72s | the game |
| 75s | so what are we actually doing we're |
| 77s | creating a character-driven narrative |
| 79s | experience to introduce players to the |
| 81s | world of new eden we're heavily heavily |
| 84s | storyline focused |
| 85s | and we want to weave the tutorialization |
| 88s | of eve into the story and narrative |
| 91s | ultimately we want to provide a space |
| 93s | for new players to become comfortable in |
| 94s | new eden and to have the confidence to |
| 96s | strike out and forge their own path and |
| 98s | eve online |
| 99s | and very importantly we're building the |
| 101s | tools that we need to tell the story so |
| 103s | we briefly touched on the nodegraph |
| 104s | editor yesterday we're also working very |
| 107s | closely with cinematic and art teams to |
| 109s | create |
| 110s | new like camera cut scene tech that we |
| 112s | can insert into experiences and we'll |
| 114s | get into a little bit more about that |
| 115s | later |
| 116s | so what's actually shaped our approach |
| 118s | what are the design pillars that we set |
| 120s | out with |
| 122s | we want to deliver on the sci-fi promise |
| 123s | of eve online i'm a huge sci-fi nerd and |
| 126s | i think eve is probably the best |
| 127s | spaceship game that exists |
| 129s | the story should be exciting and |
| 131s | engaging and we want to use the story to |
| 133s | really showcase what eve has to offer |
| 136s | all the characters in the story should |
| 138s | feel human |
| 139s | we want to breed engagement and promote |
| 143s | good relationships with these characters |
| 144s | so we want them to feel human to be well |
| 147s | fleshed out and clip he's going to touch |
| 149s | on the process that we use to create |
| 150s | these after this |
| 153s | we want to make sure that we validate |
| 155s | our ideas and our assumptions early so |
| 157s | what we've done is partnered with player |
| 159s | research |
| 160s | to test all of these experiences at very |
| 162s | very early stages of development we |
| 164s | threw prototypes together and then put |
| 165s | it in front of user testing and gained |
| 167s | so much valuable feedback that the |
| 170s | quality that you see in the experience |
| 172s | just wouldn't exist without this process |
| 175s | and speaking of quality we want to set |
| 176s | the bar for what content in eve online |
| 178s | could be |
| 180s | i'd encourage you all to just play the |
| 181s | air mpe ultimately at the end of it i |
| 184s | would love for it to be the case that if |
| 186s | a veteran decides to spin up an alt they |
| 188s | can see the benefit of going through the |
| 190s | new player experience and think yeah i |
| 192s | want to do this story arc it's fun |
| 196s | so where did we start in september of |
| 199s | 2021 we released the first chapter of |
| 201s | the air mpe and this is the attack on |
| 204s | the air cloning facility where you've |
| 206s | just become a new capsuleer |
| 208s | here you can see the air station |
| 210s | provided to us by the wonderful dudes |
| 212s | over in art |
| 213s | uh it's |
| 214s | it's stunning check out you can find it |
| 216s | in any of the newbie systems and eve |
| 218s | online |
| 221s | we want to wow the player with visuals |
| 223s | that really showcase the capabilities of |
| 225s | our engine so again working very very |
| 227s | closely with art to create these |
| 229s | wonderful sci-fi vistas these beautiful |
| 232s | engaging scenes |
| 234s | um very importantly we want to limit the |
| 237s | possibility of the player freaking out |
| 239s | now |
| 239s | eve has |
| 241s | many many windows |
| 243s | and if we revealed all of these to the |
| 245s | player at once they would probably just |
| 246s | close the client go out get some fresh |
| 248s | air have a drink i don't know |
| 250s | so what we want to do is gradually |
| 252s | reveal the ui this is just moments after |
| 255s | the player has |
| 257s | entered the scene |
| 259s | and you can see here that we have a ui |
| 261s | highlight showing the civilian stereo |
| 264s | and we have the selected item info panel |
| 267s | or selected item panel sorry |
| 270s | as we go through the experience we |
| 271s | revealed more and more of the ui so that |
| 273s | the players gradually are introduced to |
| 277s | all of the interfaces that eve has to |
| 279s | offer |
| 281s | we want to hook the player with a |
| 283s | meaningful and exciting combat |
| 285s | experience |
| 286s | so we also have to consider that the |
| 288s | player doesn't know how to fly a ship at |
| 290s | this point so step by step we teach them |
| 293s | how to move |
| 294s | how to interact with objects in space |
| 296s | and build this up until they're involved |
| 298s | in an actual combat experience |
| 302s | we also really wanted to give them a |
| 304s | taste of seeing like fleet battles so we |
| 307s | have npc actors or mpc ships in the |
| 311s | scene that are battling in the |
| 312s | background lasers railguns all those |
| 315s | cool things |
| 316s | we expose the player to the skill window |
| 318s | and the fitting window for the first |
| 320s | time |
| 321s | you can see here we have a highlight a |
| 324s | blink on the mining laser upgrade in the |
| 326s | player's inventory and we have a |
| 328s | highlight for the free slot that we want |
| 330s | them to fit it to |
| 332s | so this is a kind of example of the |
| 334s | paradigm that we set |
| 335s | for guidance for new players |
| 338s | and this is present throughout the |
| 339s | entire experience |
| 341s | there's a little bit of a trick to this |
| 343s | we can't hold their hand |
| 345s | all the time or for the entire |
| 347s | experience so we want to be careful |
| 349s | about paying back the guidance so that |
| 352s | it doesn't constantly feel like we're |
| 353s | bashing players over the head with with |
| 355s | guidance and being too heavy-handed with |
| 357s | things |
| 358s | but at least at the beginning we kind of |
| 360s | have to be heavy-handed |
| 362s | the other thing that was very important |
| 364s | for new players to understand is that |
| 366s | you can die and it's fine like you lose |
| 369s | maybe some implants you lose your ship |
| 371s | obviously but death is just the |
| 373s | beginning of a new adventure for any |
| 375s | capsuleer |
| 377s | in march we released the mining mystery |
| 380s | a mining adventure where you're |
| 382s | introduced to |
| 383s | elias peltonin |
| 385s | and the sort of industrial side of the |
| 388s | association for interdisciplinary |
| 389s | research |
| 391s | what you're about to see is the first |
| 392s | moments of the player arriving at the |
| 394s | mining site |
| 396s | i think this is a wonderful showcase for |
| 398s | all of the different components that we |
| 400s | pull together like the cutscene tech the |
| 402s | node graph to script all of this the |
| 404s | voice acting conversation windows and |
| 407s | just quite absolutely stunning dungeon |
| 410s | so |
| 411s | here you go |
| 414s | we're about to go into the cutscene |
| 417s | and this is you know this is one of the |
| 419s | few occasions where you'll see something |
| 421s | like this in eve online |
| 422s | this is all in engine this isn't |
| 424s | pre-rendered |
| 427s | here we have aura explaining to the |
| 429s | player |
| 429s | that |
| 431s | the scale of this operation is quite |
| 432s | impressive |
| 435s | for such a new corporation |
| 437s | got some pretty lasers here |
| 440s | we'll have to see asteroids getting |
| 442s | blown up |
| 444s | we have allies here in his orca |
| 446s | and then we transition back to |
| 449s | the interface that you're all familiar |
| 451s | with |
| 452s | so |
| 454s | we want to teach the player that there's |
| 455s | a low barrier of entry means to make a |
| 458s | skinny online this is mining we find |
| 460s | asteroids in space you can mine it you |
| 462s | get the ore you can sell that ore it's a |
| 464s | really simple loop to teach the player |
| 466s | it also gave us the opportunity to |
| 468s | introduce them to the wallet for them to |
| 470s | actually sell things on the market and |
| 472s | appreciate that |
| 473s | yeah i can make a living here this is |
| 475s | something that i could do |
| 478s | also obviously are primarily focused on |
| 481s | story so we add more mystery to this uh |
| 485s | encounter by means of the discovery of a |
| 487s | wreck which bears quite a striking |
| 489s | similarity to the |
| 491s | ships that attacked the cloning facility |
| 492s | in september |
| 496s | so what are some key takeaways from all |
| 498s | of our releases |
| 500s | we're less about being a tutorial team |
| 502s | we're more about telling a story we are |
| 504s | a storyline content team we've validated |
| 507s | all of our experiences with early user |
| 509s | testing and |
| 510s | big thanks to our external partners and |
| 512s | our internal player researchers for this |
| 515s | we're developing the tools that we need |
| 517s | instead of relying on older content |
| 519s | systems and we have a heavy investment |
| 522s | in creating relatable characters and a |
| 524s | compelling narrative journey |
| 526s | players |
| 527s | like learning but they don't like being |
| 529s | taught this is true for humans as well |
| 533s | so why are we doing this i'm going to |
| 536s | pass this over to ccp callipe and she's |
| 538s | going to go a little bit more into why |
| 540s | we're doing this |
| 542s | thank you |
| 554s | okay there we go |
| 556s | hi i am ccp calliope i am the narrative |
| 558s | designer on team odyssey and i just want |
| 560s | to give you a little bit of insight into |
| 562s | why we're making the decisions that |
| 564s | we're making |
| 565s | and to go into a little bit more detail |
| 567s | about the fun story elements that we're |
| 569s | adding so as we know new eden is big |
| 572s | it's like really really really big so it |
| 574s | can be super overwhelming for someone to |
| 576s | start their journey as a fresh capsuleer |
| 579s | in this vast space they don't know what |
| 581s | they're doing they don't know what they |
| 582s | can do the possibilities seem endless so |
| 585s | how do we get someone from being a tiny |
| 587s | baby fresh-faced capsuleer to a seasoned |
| 590s | veteran the kind of person who would |
| 592s | love to come to fanfest like all of you |
| 593s | beautiful people |
| 594s | um |
| 595s | the way |
| 597s | that we wanted to get our hooks into |
| 599s | people to get them hooked on this game |
| 601s | is through story |
| 602s | now eve is a sandbox game so there are |
| 606s | there is a certain school of thought |
| 607s | that says that sandbox games defy |
| 610s | traditional linear narratives but we do |
| 612s | not accept that |
| 613s | we think that this injection of a |
| 616s | storyline campaign into the early player |
| 618s | experience is critical for building that |
| 621s | emotional investment for people |
| 624s | but where do we start our story |
| 625s | surprisingly we start at the beginning |
| 628s | as |
| 629s | ccp sledgehammer discussed we really |
| 631s | want to ground players in the reality of |
| 634s | this fiction by starting them day one |
| 636s | the first day they are reborn as a |
| 639s | capsuleer |
| 642s | you wake up in your capsule for the |
| 643s | first time you see the way that you now |
| 646s | exist in relation to your ship |
| 649s | and you are introduced to the air |
| 651s | capsuleer training program so this is |
| 655s | really your absolute first moments |
| 658s | in space |
| 661s | but we can't just send you out into |
| 663s | space without any kind of anchor point |
| 665s | you need you need to have an anchor in |
| 668s | this vast world with all of its endless |
| 670s | possibilities |
| 671s | enter the association for |
| 673s | interdisciplinary research so we knew |
| 675s | that we wanted to create an mpc |
| 677s | corporation that was specifically for |
| 679s | new players that catered to their needs |
| 681s | that was there to answer their questions |
| 684s | and the i in air is probably the most |
| 686s | important part it stands for |
| 688s | interdisciplinary and it's |
| 691s | meant so that it can grow and evolve to |
| 693s | meet the needs of new players whatever |
| 694s | they may be |
| 696s | we want to |
| 697s | teach them combat we have a department |
| 699s | for that teach them mining we've got a |
| 701s | department for that and most importantly |
| 703s | we have the air capsuleer training |
| 704s | program which can introduce you to |
| 706s | careers and ccp nova is going to talk a |
| 708s | little bit about that |
| 710s | later |
| 711s | but what is air you ask |
| 713s | air is this new corporation that |
| 715s | positions themselves as a disrupter of |
| 718s | nudian's texting they want people to |
| 720s | think they're this bold new voice |
| 721s | they're breaking barriers and they want |
| 724s | to democratize the expensive and very |
| 726s | very risky process of becoming a |
| 728s | capsuleer |
| 730s | so this is met with |
| 732s | mixed opinions in new eden because some |
| 734s | people see them as this really |
| 735s | incendiary type of organization they're |
| 737s | trying to disrupt the status quo |
| 739s | some people are into that some people |
| 741s | are not so into that |
| 743s | and more importantly who is air as |
| 746s | sledgehammer mentioned we are super keen |
| 748s | on making this a character-driven story |
| 750s | so npcs are really going to be the |
| 752s | beating heart we don't want them to just |
| 755s | serve a gameplay function we don't just |
| 756s | want ballen ferris to teach you about |
| 758s | combat we also want him to be as |
| 760s | integrated into the story as anything |
| 762s | else because you can have a clever plot |
| 764s | but if you don't have characters that |
| 766s | people care about it's all sort of for |
| 768s | nothing |
| 769s | so the first of the air npcs i want to |
| 771s | introduce you to is a woman named vesper |
| 773s | kalatrix |
| 777s | i don't have audio no |
| 779s | okay |
| 783s | so vesper is the vice president of |
| 785s | operations for air she is the |
| 787s | charismatic ice queen archetype she was |
| 790s | born in the amar empire but was orphaned |
| 792s | by a blood raider attack on a ship that |
| 795s | her family was traveling on she was |
| 798s | her escape pod traveled outside of a |
| 800s | mars space and was picked up by the |
| 803s | sisters of eve where she met the |
| 805s | air ceo elita balashirian who is |
| 808s | formerly of soe and she is voiced by the |
| 811s | inimitable katherine kingsley whose |
| 813s | voice unfortunately |
| 815s | you're not hearing today |
| 817s | we also have ballen ferris he's the |
| 820s | commander of air security he is the |
| 822s | first person that you boldly go into |
| 823s | battle with he rose up through the ranks |
| 826s | of the minmatar republic fleet before |
| 828s | being recruited by air he is that |
| 831s | stalwart gruff but kind military guy |
| 834s | he's responsible for the organization |
| 836s | and deployment of air's paramilitary |
| 838s | wing and he is responsible also for the |
| 842s | training of all air pilots and he takes |
| 843s | that responsibility very very seriously |
| 846s | he's voiced by ben turner who |
| 848s | brought a really interesting dimension |
| 850s | to this character |
| 853s | still no audio um |
| 855s | but he sort of injected this uh |
| 859s | sort of london working class edge to his |
| 861s | accent which pulls that real world |
| 863s | connotation to into the game to sort of |
| 865s | give you a sense of what this |
| 866s | character's background may be like |
| 869s | and last of the air npcs so far we have |
| 872s | elias peltenan elias is air's mining |
| 875s | expert he is the maverick he is |
| 879s | the kind of guy who loves money he loves |
| 882s | adventure travel and |
| 884s | just like air he prizes his independence |
| 888s | because air is like they're they're not |
| 890s | affiliated with any empire so they are |
| 893s | strict very strict about pursuing |
| 895s | independence and not having um sort of |
| 898s | tangled relationships with the other |
| 901s | powers that be in new eden and i think |
| 904s | of all of the air npcs elias might be |
| 907s | the most fun to have a beer with and |
| 909s | he's voiced by the incredible derek |
| 911s | hagan who really |
| 913s | once i said that the inspiration for |
| 915s | elias pelton's character was brendan |
| 917s | fraser from the mummy he just took that |
| 918s | and ran |
| 923s | and last but certainly not least for the |
| 925s | mpcs in the air npe we have ora she is |
| 928s | your first friend in space a stalwart |
| 930s | companion an unfailing ally and as is |
| 933s | written here you can see that the galaxy |
| 935s | is dark and full of terrors but you are |
| 937s | not alone because she is there for you |
| 939s | at the best of times she's there for you |
| 941s | with the worst of times um |
| 943s | and we really wanted to foster that type |
| 946s | of uh relationship between capsuleer and |
| 949s | aura as is mentioned in the air mpe |
| 952s | there are thousands if not millions of |
| 954s | copies of aura in new eden but she is |
| 957s | your aura and you are her pilot so |
| 959s | there's definitely a very strong |
| 961s | relationship that we wanted to |
| 963s | um |
| 965s | to really nurture |
| 969s | and i won't waste too much time on this |
| 971s | slide because |
| 972s | uh ccp sledgehammer went into it but how |
| 975s | do we introduce capsuleers to a world |
| 977s | like new eden violently |
| 997s | you're like this is great i have time to |
| 999s | acclimatize to what life is a capsule |
| 1001s | would be like no you don't |
| 1003s | you are just violently born into space |
| 1006s | um through this exploding tunnel and all |
| 1008s | of a sudden you're just a lonely little |
| 1010s | pod floating in space what's going to |
| 1012s | happen to me now who's to say |
| 1016s | so now what we have this grand creative |
| 1018s | vision we have the pursuit of a mystery |
| 1022s | that kicks off with the attack on the |
| 1023s | cloning facility |
| 1024s | and develops with the mining adventure |
| 1027s | but how do we pull that off so we needed |
| 1030s | as a team to be as interdisciplinary as |
| 1032s | air we needed to involve other teams we |
| 1034s | needed to loop in art and audio and |
| 1036s | basically every sensory experience that |
| 1039s | goes into creating a video game and we |
| 1042s | needed fun new tools to talk to you a |
| 1044s | little bit about that i'm going to hand |
| 1046s | this over to ccp edelweiss |
| 1049s | [Applause] |
| 1050s | thanks to civical iop |
| 1054s | hi fanfest |
| 1056s | hi nccb |
| 1058s | i'm cecilia wise uh i'm software |
| 1061s | engineer at tcp |
| 1062s | and |
| 1064s | okay |
| 1066s | i'm gonna take you through the first |
| 1068s | moments of eve for a new player |
| 1070s | unable to identify our attackers but |
| 1073s | they are not currently targeting our |
| 1075s | capsule |
| 1076s | this gives us time to locate a ship |
| 1079s | at this point they've created a new |
| 1081s | character |
| 1082s | they've watched that intro video |
| 1084s | and so they're in space they're in a |
| 1087s | capsule there's no ui they've just met |
| 1090s | ora |
| 1091s | and she's going to guide them through |
| 1093s | this story where they see a bit about |
| 1096s | the game and they learn the basics |
| 1103s | your pod may be able to fly through |
| 1105s | space |
| 1106s | but like all capsules |
| 1108s | it is unarmed |
| 1111s | a proper ship comes with proper weaponry |
| 1115s | the question for us in tech was |
| 1118s | how do we guide new players in if |
| 1121s | how do we |
| 1122s | build an interactive story |
| 1125s | and |
| 1126s | the tools that we had back then were not |
| 1129s | going to cut it |
| 1130s | they were too linear |
| 1132s | and we really wanted players to |
| 1136s | do things on their own to to be able to |
| 1139s | go off the golden path |
| 1142s | so what we came up with were these note |
| 1146s | graphs or noddy for friends |
| 1149s | um you can see them here below |
| 1153s | they're somewhat similar to um to the |
| 1156s | visual programming from |
| 1158s | game engines like unreal |
| 1160s | we have actions in blue |
| 1163s | like show this aura conversation or |
| 1168s | play that music trigger |
| 1171s | and we connect them in a timeline to for |
| 1174s | example events |
| 1176s | in red |
| 1177s | where we're using |
| 1179s | we're waiting for some player input like |
| 1182s | camera rotated |
| 1183s | or |
| 1184s | camera zoomed out |
| 1187s | and so on so let's see it in action |
| 1198s | now let's get a better look at our |
| 1200s | surroundings |
| 1203s | and now ora is asking the player to zoom |
| 1206s | out |
| 1207s | which is that |
| 1209s | show conversation in blue |
| 1211s | and we're waiting for the player to |
| 1213s | actually zoom out |
| 1215s | which is the event in red camera zoom |
| 1217s | out |
| 1219s | um |
| 1224s | and now |
| 1225s | they will zoom out |
| 1228s | ah |
| 1229s | there is a ships and you see how it |
| 1231s | advances to the next |
| 1232s | box a fine shape indeed |
| 1239s | as you can imagine there are many things |
| 1241s | that we can do with these boxes |
| 1243s | like we can use them to reveal parts of |
| 1246s | the ui |
| 1247s | we can control the ui pointers |
| 1251s | we can choose on one path or the other |
| 1254s | based on a condition or some player |
| 1256s | input |
| 1258s | and by now i believe we have about 500 |
| 1262s | different types of these boxes so there |
| 1265s | are many options |
| 1272s | i have highlighted the navigation |
| 1273s | section of your display |
| 1275s | use it to approach the ship |
| 1278s | but the main takeaway is that we've |
| 1281s | built a powerful framework to script |
| 1283s | experiences |
| 1286s | and we're using it not just in the |
| 1288s | client but also in the server to control |
| 1290s | dungeon spawning |
| 1292s | to |
| 1293s | trigger mpc behaviors |
| 1295s | to give up items etc |
| 1300s | and |
| 1303s | this tool gives us the flexibility |
| 1306s | to build experiences and content like |
| 1308s | you haven't seen before |
| 1312s | and not just for new players |
| 1315s | we want and we are going to empower |
| 1319s | other teams within ccp |
| 1321s | with this note graph technology so they |
| 1323s | can also build more immersive content |
| 1328s | our next step in team odyssey |
| 1330s | is to use career agent missions as a |
| 1333s | test bed for bringing this technology to |
| 1336s | missions |
| 1337s | and to dungeons |
| 1340s | and i worked in many |
| 1343s | content systems in if but this one is a |
| 1346s | big step up so i'm super excited for the |
| 1349s | future |
| 1350s | ccp's led hammer what else can we reveal |
| 1356s | [Applause] |
| 1360s | thank you very much |
| 1361s | so the next thing that we're going to |
| 1363s | work on for the air mpe is the |
| 1366s | exploration adventure |
| 1368s | um |
| 1369s | new players like the idea of exploration |
| 1370s | coming into the game they've heard tales |
| 1372s | of a vast living sci-fi universe and |
| 1375s | they want to uncover it for themselves |
| 1376s | they want to unravel its mysteries |
| 1379s | and journey out into its unknowns so we |
| 1381s | really want to embrace those desires |
| 1383s | with the exploration chapter |
| 1385s | we want them to appreciate the vastness |
| 1386s | of new eden and marvel at celestial |
| 1389s | sites |
| 1390s | we want them to discover ancient mystery |
| 1392s | and history and to be armed with |
| 1394s | knowledge and skills to strike out on |
| 1395s | their own |
| 1397s | we have the opportunity to take them on |
| 1398s | a journey filled with contextually |
| 1400s | sensitive information about new eden |
| 1403s | we will describe how exploration |
| 1405s | complements the different careers you |
| 1407s | know you can hack a can get some stuff |
| 1408s | from it this is used by industry |
| 1411s | to build or invent |
| 1413s | and we'll teach them the basic elements |
| 1415s | of exploration as you all know them so |
| 1417s | bookmarks hacking scanning |
| 1419s | and while ensuring that all of this |
| 1421s | feels like an organic part of the story |
| 1425s | we're going to look at career agents |
| 1428s | we're delivering content periodically in |
| 1429s | both installments of their mpe and we |
| 1431s | use the career agents as a handoff into |
| 1434s | need and proper at the moment |
| 1437s | we're aware that there's quite a |
| 1439s | difference in quality between our mp |
| 1441s | experience and the career agents so we |
| 1444s | want to use as elvis has said |
| 1447s | our load graph system to introduce a |
| 1449s | guidance layer to these missions so |
| 1451s | pointing out which ship is important |
| 1454s | here or |
| 1455s | where do i get these prisoners |
| 1457s | we want to move local text into |
| 1460s | conversation windows like you've seen |
| 1461s | with aura and elias and balin and vesper |
| 1465s | the corp chat window is in focus by |
| 1467s | default for new players so |
| 1470s | there's so much in local chat that can |
| 1471s | be missed in all of these mission chains |
| 1473s | that we want to surface this and |
| 1474s | highlight it |
| 1476s | this is part of like elevating |
| 1478s | the text so that it's more readable but |
| 1481s | also in mission change where there's |
| 1483s | characters we want to like have them in |
| 1485s | a conversation window so it doesn't feel |
| 1486s | like some chat bot that's just talking |
| 1488s | to you |
| 1489s | um we're going to adjust gameplay we're |
| 1491s | strictly necessary and i want to be |
| 1493s | clear that this is just our first |
| 1495s | iteration on the career agents |
| 1497s | and we're looking at updating the |
| 1498s | rewards if necessary |
| 1500s | this is what odyssey's going to focus |
| 1502s | alongside art who are in as you saw |
| 1504s | yesterday in their speech the early |
| 1505s | stages of a massive visual update update |
| 1508s | to all of this content |
| 1512s | this is an example of pathfinder's work |
| 1514s | on a potential mock-up for |
| 1517s | iteration on the agent conversation ui |
| 1519s | for instance |
| 1521s | we want to better surface and make the |
| 1523s | rewards clearer we want to show the |
| 1525s | objectives and |
| 1527s | there's a discrepancy but currently with |
| 1530s | the agent conversation window and the |
| 1532s | read details button some of the |
| 1534s | information is present in one and not in |
| 1536s | the other and it's not very glanceable |
| 1537s | for the player so we want to we want to |
| 1539s | treat that with an update to the |
| 1541s | conversation ui |
| 1543s | i'm going to pass this over to ccp nomad |
| 1545s | who genuinely got goosebumps when they |
| 1548s | announced that there was going to be an |
| 1549s | excel integration with eve |
| 1553s | so please give up for c speed nomad he's |
| 1555s | going to talk to you more about the |
| 1556s | character progression and career |
| 1558s | progression thank you very much |
| 1561s | [Applause] |
| 1573s | thank you team odyssey |
| 1576s | hello survivors |
| 1578s | of fun fest day one |
| 1582s | give yourself a round of applause guys |
| 1585s | it's nice to see you hero |
| 1586s | [Applause] |
| 1590s | okay |
| 1592s | so that's the topic |
| 1594s | the factory of capable capsuleers |
| 1597s | character progression player progression |
| 1600s | call loop |
| 1601s | and core competency |
| 1606s | i'm sick |
| 1607s | i'm a game designer for team equinox for |
| 1611s | eve online |
| 1614s | if deaths do play eve |
| 1617s | go figure |
| 1619s | maybe i cannot compare |
| 1621s | to some of you hotshots in the audience |
| 1624s | but i do know a thing or two about the |
| 1626s | game |
| 1628s | i'm part of this team |
| 1630s | and we are responsible for player and |
| 1633s | character progression in iwo night this |
| 1635s | is a multi-disciplinary team with a mix |
| 1638s | of veterans and newcomers both to ccp |
| 1640s | and to eve |
| 1642s | having such a diverse team |
| 1644s | is crucial when making content and |
| 1646s | systems for new players |
| 1649s | so what is a core loop |
| 1652s | it is something that you perform |
| 1654s | repeatedly this is the basis of a game |
| 1658s | and you progress in the game |
| 1661s | when you manage to perform |
| 1662s | this loop faster and faster over time |
| 1665s | or when you take on more challenging |
| 1667s | loops inside the game |
| 1670s | now some |
| 1672s | well forgot there |
| 1674s | so first thing you you set yourself a |
| 1676s | goal |
| 1677s | you you look what's fun to do in this |
| 1679s | game what looks interesting to me then |
| 1682s | you research it a bit is it worth it |
| 1685s | then finally you pick a task |
| 1688s | for that particular area of the game |
| 1690s | then you prepare |
| 1692s | your ship |
| 1693s | by getting the ship itself the modules |
| 1696s | then you train the missiles missing |
| 1698s | skills if there are any |
| 1700s | you then go and perform the task |
| 1703s | you get the reward |
| 1705s | and then you analyze what happened |
| 1708s | was it all good or maybe there's |
| 1710s | something that i can do better next time |
| 1713s | maybe there's |
| 1715s | a change in the fitting that would help |
| 1716s | me |
| 1717s | in this uh adventure so then you improve |
| 1722s | the skills |
| 1723s | if needed to get even better at that |
| 1726s | and we go back to the start |
| 1730s | now some of those items here |
| 1732s | are not like the others |
| 1736s | we have player progression that's |
| 1738s | intertwined with the character |
| 1740s | progression |
| 1741s | both are source of satisfaction |
| 1744s | which is part of why games are fun |
| 1747s | why we are playing games as humans |
| 1752s | so core competency |
| 1755s | is when you can perform the core loop of |
| 1757s | the game unassisted |
| 1760s | that is one of the things we are aiming |
| 1761s | for |
| 1764s | we can show the player progression |
| 1766s | character progression like this |
| 1771s | sometimes you are limited |
| 1773s | by your character you might be lacking |
| 1775s | skills for example or having bad |
| 1777s | standings to do some things other times |
| 1779s | you are limited by your |
| 1781s | knowledge or lack of experience |
| 1785s | so while character progression is |
| 1786s | explicit and measurable in skill points |
| 1790s | or risk the player progression is much |
| 1792s | more subtle |
| 1793s | and cannot be measured easily especially |
| 1796s | by new players |
| 1798s | our goal |
| 1800s | is to make the player progression more |
| 1801s | explicit and thus easier to comprehend |
| 1804s | and relate to |
| 1806s | at the same time |
| 1807s | we're making the first steps for the |
| 1809s | character progression path to be more |
| 1811s | accessible by making the initial |
| 1814s | player decisions much simpler |
| 1817s | and skill plans are an example of that |
| 1822s | so how to engage a new player |
| 1827s | a story is how humans communicate and |
| 1829s | we've heard about that from team odyssey |
| 1831s | from ccp calliope |
| 1836s | a helpful lesson |
| 1839s | is something that you |
| 1840s | a helpful lesson results in acquired |
| 1842s | knowledge |
| 1844s | that you can apply to get better at |
| 1845s | something and the sooner you can apply |
| 1847s | the knowledge that you have gained the |
| 1849s | better you retain that knowledge |
| 1851s | it doesn't go away |
| 1855s | then about the guidance |
| 1857s | we use guidance in moments |
| 1859s | where we know that the player might be |
| 1861s | lost |
| 1862s | where we set the available |
| 1864s | where the set of available choices is |
| 1867s | too big or where the consequences of |
| 1869s | such a choice are not clear |
| 1872s | then we have safe environment |
| 1874s | and it can can have multiple dimensions |
| 1877s | for example starting the game in high |
| 1879s | sec is an example of safe environment |
| 1881s | but also this applies to communicating |
| 1883s | to the player |
| 1885s | that well that whatever |
| 1887s | choice they make |
| 1888s | they won't regret it |
| 1890s | that that is safer environment as well |
| 1894s | so |
| 1895s | team odyssey right before me they were |
| 1897s | talking about the first two items on |
| 1899s | this list |
| 1900s | mostly |
| 1903s | the narrative driven gameplay and the |
| 1904s | helpful lessons now we are moving to the |
| 1907s | other two where we engage with the |
| 1908s | player by providing them with choices |
| 1910s | and guidance for their decisions |
| 1914s | so the choice itself how to make it |
| 1916s | easier |
| 1918s | the most important thing just limit the |
| 1920s | number of options if there's too many |
| 1922s | then explanations won't help really |
| 1925s | and explain the consequences of the |
| 1927s | choice provide the player with the |
| 1928s | information what they will gain by |
| 1931s | making this choice or what might be at |
| 1933s | stake what they might be risking by by |
| 1936s | making this choice |
| 1938s | and also keep them away from potentially |
| 1940s | regrettable choices |
| 1942s | like |
| 1944s | do not |
| 1945s | try to keep them away from making a |
| 1947s | decision that they will regret later and |
| 1949s | that applies to skills a lot there are |
| 1951s | many players who regret training into |
| 1953s | mining because other players told them |
| 1956s | to do so and they found out that they |
| 1959s | didn't really like it afterwards |
| 1962s | we all know this |
| 1966s | so certified skill plans feature that |
| 1968s | was introduced introduced in september |
| 1970s | was the first step on this road instead |
| 1972s | of expecting the player to pick one of |
| 1974s | 500 skills to train we present them with |
| 1977s | a much simpler choice |
| 1980s | which is who we want to be |
| 1982s | simple as that |
| 1984s | and for for that we just give them four |
| 1986s | options |
| 1988s | when they select the the career path |
| 1991s | when they decide who they want to be |
| 1993s | they can choose a faction they want to |
| 1995s | follow so this |
| 1998s | puts an emphasis on the fact that |
| 2001s | the race of your character does not |
| 2003s | limit your |
| 2005s | possibilities you can expand |
| 2007s | horizontally in skills |
| 2009s | for any ships or activities no matter |
| 2011s | what kind of which race your character |
| 2013s | is |
| 2015s | and you guys have been asking this for |
| 2017s | years since before skill plans you use |
| 2020s | the forums |
| 2021s | and |
| 2022s | websites to share the list of skills |
| 2024s | with each other |
| 2025s | that was great however |
| 2028s | anytime the game requires you |
| 2031s | to get out of it to find some |
| 2033s | information that increases the friction |
| 2036s | and breaks the immersion |
| 2038s | which is not something that we like or |
| 2040s | you |
| 2043s | so since september release with skill |
| 2045s | plans many organizations adopted |
| 2048s | them to help their recruits |
| 2050s | this this was a tweet from eve |
| 2053s | university they've put together a great |
| 2056s | list of skill plans that are available |
| 2059s | both to the members of the university |
| 2062s | but also to all the players |
| 2064s | outside of it |
| 2065s | they share it share them with everyone |
| 2068s | it's really good stuff if you are |
| 2070s | interested in |
| 2071s | seeing |
| 2072s | skill plans prepared for new players |
| 2074s | that are really well done i recommend |
| 2076s | you guys to check that out |
| 2080s | so in each certified skill plan we |
| 2082s | recommend this suitable ship fitting |
| 2084s | so that instead of having |
| 2086s | asking the player to figure that out on |
| 2088s | their own |
| 2090s | we give them an example to follow that |
| 2092s | they can use |
| 2093s | to modify |
| 2095s | or to learn |
| 2096s | what is really |
| 2098s | the correct fitting so to speak so they |
| 2101s | don't do dual tank or things like that |
| 2104s | we have seen that as well on z kill |
| 2108s | and just recently we have fixed some |
| 2110s | discrepancies in those fittings the |
| 2112s | fixes will be released in june |
| 2114s | and then all of the those fittings that |
| 2117s | are in the certified skill plans will |
| 2119s | match one-to-one with the community |
| 2120s | feelings that you can see in the |
| 2123s | fitting window |
| 2125s | just to make things more consistent and |
| 2127s | easier and avoid confusing the players |
| 2134s | so |
| 2135s | also every all certified skill plans try |
| 2138s | to lead you to content as well they |
| 2141s | provide a link in the description that |
| 2143s | opens a particular panel of the agency |
| 2147s | where you can find the content that |
| 2149s | we're interested in |
| 2152s | but skill plans are useful not only for |
| 2153s | new players |
| 2154s | i've been meeting with some of you this |
| 2156s | week |
| 2157s | asking about skill plans how you like |
| 2159s | them how you use them the response i got |
| 2161s | was usually |
| 2163s | thank you for making it easier to manage |
| 2164s | my 24 hours training |
| 2169s | you are welcome |
| 2170s | it helps me too |
| 2174s | so going back to the narrative design a |
| 2176s | bit |
| 2177s | if you became a capsuleer within the |
| 2179s | last few months |
| 2180s | you have been taken care of by air at |
| 2182s | the very beginning of your journey they |
| 2184s | have put you on a special program so you |
| 2186s | could learn about and experience what |
| 2188s | there is to do |
| 2189s | for you as a capsuleer unfortunately |
| 2192s | that endeavor got interrupted by an |
| 2194s | explosion no less |
| 2197s | you got thrown into space in your pot |
| 2199s | without much preparation and then every |
| 2201s | representative stayed with you |
| 2203s | and guided you through those |
| 2204s | circumstances explaining things on the |
| 2206s | fly and hopefully you have learned |
| 2208s | something from that |
| 2209s | now the actual air carrier program can |
| 2211s | continue can resume |
| 2213s | and air can introduce you to the |
| 2214s | available careers and let you learn them |
| 2217s | by doing |
| 2220s | so what is the air carrier program |
| 2224s | it's a system that lets you choose the |
| 2226s | career |
| 2227s | in similar way to skill plans |
| 2230s | that is |
| 2231s | who i want to be |
| 2234s | then choose the activity you might be |
| 2236s | interested in what i want to be doing |
| 2239s | what i think will be fun for me in the |
| 2242s | game |
| 2244s | and then choose that particular goal |
| 2246s | what i want to do now |
| 2251s | so this system i described most of it |
| 2254s | yesterday |
| 2255s | the system tracks |
| 2258s | all the actions that every player makes |
| 2261s | takes |
| 2262s | and for completing arbitrary goals |
| 2266s | it |
| 2267s | rewards the capsuleer for that |
| 2271s | the rewards |
| 2272s | are |
| 2273s | usually |
| 2274s | relevant to the career the goal is |
| 2277s | associated with so for example |
| 2279s | if |
| 2280s | you fulfill a goal that's related to |
| 2282s | industry then you may get a skill book |
| 2286s | for an industrial ship |
| 2290s | additionally |
| 2292s | the system provides you with skill |
| 2293s | points so you can accelerate the |
| 2294s | training |
| 2297s | it offers a good visibility into what |
| 2299s | kind of activities are associated with |
| 2300s | specific careers |
| 2302s | you can browse things and and see |
| 2305s | for each career |
| 2308s | what kind of |
| 2310s | actions are associated if i call myself |
| 2314s | an explorer what does that mean in the |
| 2316s | game |
| 2317s | what there's for me to do |
| 2319s | to then call myself i'm competent |
| 2322s | explorer competent |
| 2326s | additionally the system suggests |
| 2328s | activities that are that are beneficial |
| 2330s | to new players to fresh capsuleers |
| 2335s | then for each goal that |
| 2338s | you look at that that you want to |
| 2339s | perform |
| 2340s | it provides you with guidance from aura |
| 2344s | and that's an interesting thing we think |
| 2346s | we have run some user |
| 2348s | research |
| 2351s | where we presented the players with the |
| 2352s | prototype of the system |
| 2355s | and they liked it a lot that the aura is |
| 2358s | back |
| 2360s | they they really like her in during the |
| 2362s | np |
| 2363s | what |
| 2364s | has been part of what team odyssey |
| 2367s | were talking about and they missed her |
| 2370s | when that npe has finished so they |
| 2373s | really appreciated seeing her back |
| 2375s | and helping them go through all of this |
| 2382s | also if you want to pursue the goals for |
| 2385s | the sake of rewards which are skill |
| 2386s | points as the most important reward |
| 2390s | then you are kind of pushed into all |
| 2393s | areas of the game |
| 2395s | where you can experience things that |
| 2396s | maybe you are not so interested at the |
| 2398s | beginning but you may find them |
| 2400s | interesting after getting engaged with |
| 2402s | with them of course this is not |
| 2403s | mandatory it's all about your choice |
| 2408s | it also this system gives you free |
| 2410s | expert systems |
| 2412s | that allow you to fly |
| 2414s | all |
| 2416s | rookie-friendly ships so frigates and |
| 2418s | destroyers across all races no matter |
| 2421s | which character race you are |
| 2424s | lastly |
| 2425s | the system creates capable capsuleers |
| 2428s | who know what to do and how to do it |
| 2432s | so this is the choice of the career it |
| 2434s | looks almost the same as in the skill |
| 2437s | plans |
| 2438s | but additionally |
| 2441s | each of those choices will be |
| 2442s | accompanied with some more information |
| 2444s | both from aura and in form of a short |
| 2447s | video explaining what this career is |
| 2449s | about |
| 2450s | at the very bottom you can see your |
| 2452s | progress towards the skill point rewards |
| 2455s | because for completing every goal |
| 2458s | besides |
| 2459s | receiving reward in form of esk or |
| 2462s | modules or ships or skills or skins |
| 2465s | you will receive career points |
| 2467s | which are simply a system of measurement |
| 2470s | of your progress |
| 2473s | both inside each of those careers but |
| 2475s | also overall in the whole career program |
| 2481s | here you can see activities |
| 2483s | within the enforcer career |
| 2486s | the aura recommends you the activity |
| 2487s | that should benefit you the most of the |
| 2489s | new capsuleer in this case |
| 2491s | go and do some career agent missions for |
| 2494s | start |
| 2495s | they will teach you something |
| 2499s | at the bottom you can see the progress |
| 2501s | towards the graduation moment for this |
| 2503s | particular career the graduation moment |
| 2505s | is when you complete |
| 2507s | 75 of all the goals that are designated |
| 2511s | for this career |
| 2512s | and for that you receive more skill |
| 2515s | points |
| 2516s | but also skins that are related to to |
| 2519s | this career |
| 2523s | after selecting a particular goal goal |
| 2526s | you get the details of it including the |
| 2528s | tips from our aura on how to complete it |
| 2531s | you can see in the bottom right corner |
| 2533s | this is where our assistance panel |
| 2536s | resides and it provides you with more |
| 2538s | information about like how do i do this |
| 2541s | stuff precisely |
| 2544s | so a couple of examples this is also |
| 2546s | something i've shown you yesterday |
| 2549s | so the rewards section here |
| 2551s | showed the esk |
| 2554s | and items that you will receive when you |
| 2555s | complete the task |
| 2557s | some goals provide you with the rewards |
| 2558s | that are outside of your race for |
| 2560s | example if you are an amar |
| 2563s | i'm sorry |
| 2569s | fine |
| 2572s | if you are an amar you will get mean |
| 2574s | matar skill books for mid-matter |
| 2575s | frigates if you're a kaldari you will |
| 2577s | get gallant skill books for frigates |
| 2580s | again to make an emphasis on the fact |
| 2582s | that you can expand horizontally |
| 2586s | the risk estimation shows you how likely |
| 2588s | it is for you to lose a ship |
| 2590s | by doing by trying to attempt to |
| 2592s | complete this goal and the time |
| 2594s | estimation shows you how long it may |
| 2597s | take for this goal for you to complete |
| 2598s | this goal so when you sit at your |
| 2600s | computer and you have half an hour |
| 2603s | you may reconsider which one to pick |
| 2608s | like mentioned before |
| 2610s | aircraft program provides place with |
| 2611s | free expert systems |
| 2613s | and they are |
| 2615s | they are the rewards for each of the |
| 2620s | carrier agent missions |
| 2622s | when you complete career agent missions |
| 2624s | for specific career then you get an |
| 2626s | expert system that allow enables you to |
| 2628s | fly |
| 2629s | all the ships that are relevant to that |
| 2631s | career |
| 2632s | within frigate and destroyer sizes |
| 2636s | and there's about one million skill |
| 2637s | points worth of skills in those expert |
| 2639s | systems that |
| 2640s | those are support skills and all weapon |
| 2642s | system skills so for example if you are |
| 2645s | on an enforcer path and you get the |
| 2647s | expert system from the enforcer |
| 2650s | it will give you skills for frigates for |
| 2652s | amar minmatar kaldari and galante but |
| 2654s | also skills for |
| 2656s | uh hybrid weapons projectiles missiles |
| 2659s | drones |
| 2660s | shields armor all that the full set |
| 2663s | so to expose you to all types of |
| 2667s | combat all types of tactics so then you |
| 2669s | can decide what to train |
| 2673s | this is the list of ships for each of |
| 2675s | the expert system that will be enabled |
| 2679s | this should also help |
| 2681s | the recruiters to inform the play the |
| 2684s | the recruits |
| 2686s | about what they can do |
| 2687s | what they should be trying out or be |
| 2691s | easier |
| 2693s | to accommodate in the corporation |
| 2696s | just finish the career agents you'll get |
| 2697s | an expert system and you can fly with us |
| 2700s | immediately because you will have the |
| 2701s | skills required |
| 2705s | so there's 188 goals so far grouped into |
| 2708s | 40 types of activities and those are |
| 2710s | into four careers that's in total about |
| 2713s | 70 hours of content so that's like a |
| 2715s | month of playing two hours every day |
| 2720s | that should get the players engaged |
| 2722s | enough |
| 2723s | to get exposed to all the social aspects |
| 2726s | of these |
| 2727s | to interact with you guys |
| 2729s | and get engaged |
| 2731s | more into the game |
| 2735s | so what's next |
| 2736s | i've shown you |
| 2738s | interesting slide yesterday |
| 2745s | about this |
| 2747s | and i'm sure you will guys have some |
| 2749s | questions we'll have a run table |
| 2752s | at one |
| 2754s | we'll be talking a bit about this if you |
| 2756s | will be asking about this |
| 2758s | but to summarize where are we going with |
| 2760s | this |
| 2763s | we plan to rebalance all the skills |
| 2767s | and |
| 2768s | try to fix some |
| 2769s | [Music] |
| 2771s | inconsistencies between them |
| 2774s | and to reduce the level of complication |
| 2777s | uh involved in the optimization of |
| 2779s | training we are removing character |
| 2781s | attributes |
| 2782s | and because we are removing character |
| 2784s | attributes we have to look into implants |
| 2786s | because they are closely related so |
| 2788s | we'll be revamping the whole implant |
| 2790s | gameplay not only about learning |
| 2792s | implants but all implants |
| 2794s | and boosters |
| 2797s | i will say more about that in a couple |
| 2799s | of slides |
| 2802s | and finally the skill training will be |
| 2804s | removed so no more training cue no more |
| 2808s | training a skill |
| 2809s | you will be accumulating skill points |
| 2811s | passively over time at a fixed rate that |
| 2814s | you will be able to adjust through |
| 2815s | implants for example |
| 2817s | and then you will be applying those |
| 2818s | skill points either to |
| 2820s | skill plans or to particular skills that |
| 2822s | you want |
| 2825s | so the skills for balance will touch all |
| 2829s | aspects of every skill |
| 2832s | just to make sure that some of the |
| 2834s | skills that are 20 years old almost |
| 2837s | makes sense for the players today and |
| 2839s | makes sense in the context of all the |
| 2840s | other skills |
| 2843s | the character attributes today are |
| 2845s | complex and complicated |
| 2847s | but also obscure the game doesn't tell |
| 2849s | you |
| 2850s | why one skill trains faster than another |
| 2854s | some of you know what is the training |
| 2857s | equation but probably not all of you |
| 2861s | and we'll just get getting rid of that |
| 2862s | making the system |
| 2864s | more simple |
| 2866s | so no not complicated anymore but it |
| 2869s | still will be complex for those who want |
| 2871s | to get deeper into it to optimize it |
| 2873s | more |
| 2876s | the implants as i said they rely on |
| 2879s | character attributes so we have to |
| 2880s | revise them but that ties to jump clones |
| 2883s | and today they cover too many subjects |
| 2885s | at once they are responsible for gearing |
| 2888s | up the same way you fit modules to ships |
| 2891s | you also choose particular jump clone |
| 2894s | with correct implants |
| 2897s | if you are going into combat or if you |
| 2899s | are doing pve you just switch them up so |
| 2901s | that's the gearing aspect of dumplings |
| 2903s | but also the travel that's another thing |
| 2905s | that you use jump lungs for and then on |
| 2907s | top of that we have skill progression |
| 2909s | which is learning implants so all those |
| 2911s | three things are involved in jumpclone's |
| 2914s | gameplay |
| 2915s | and that's not ideal because because |
| 2917s | those things are not that related to |
| 2919s | each other really |
| 2921s | so we'll be looking into some revisions |
| 2923s | in this area |
| 2925s | and the training themselves itself |
| 2927s | as i mentioned |
| 2929s | it's difficult to to |
| 2931s | understand or to explain |
| 2933s | why some skills are |
| 2935s | take longer to train than the others |
| 2938s | how all of it makes sense what are |
| 2941s | attributes what are attribute remaps why |
| 2943s | i can do that only once a year |
| 2945s | this is some crazy stuff |
| 2948s | who came up with it |
| 2954s | so |
| 2955s | if we are removing the training queue |
| 2960s | that means you will be left with skill |
| 2962s | plus as the |
| 2964s | the tool for you to plan your |
| 2966s | progression |
| 2967s | and the training key wasn't ideal for |
| 2969s | that it anyway because it didn't allow |
| 2973s | you to |
| 2974s | to plan without commitment |
| 2976s | when what i mean by that is |
| 2978s | you had to buy the skill book first to |
| 2981s | be to inject them |
| 2983s | and only then you could add them to the |
| 2985s | training queue to see how long it will |
| 2987s | take for you to achieve particular skill |
| 2989s | to be able to fly that ship |
| 2992s | now skill plans allow you to do that |
| 2993s | without commitment |
| 2995s | you can just add the skills and see how |
| 2997s | long they will train only then you can |
| 2999s | decide to buy them or not to start |
| 3001s | training them or not |
| 3003s | so we had since we'll be removing the |
| 3006s | training queue we had to give you skill |
| 3008s | plans first |
| 3009s | that's when this whole journey started |
| 3010s | for our team |
| 3015s | and that is it for now |
| 3018s | i recommend you all to come to the run |
| 3020s | table e310 |
| 3023s | for team odyssey and team |
| 3025s | equinox it's embracing new citizens in |
| 3028s | if |
| 3028s | thank you very much |
