The CSM has been diligently working over the past few months, engaging in discussions with design teams across various disciplines. We’re now eagerly anticipating the CSM 18 Summit.
The CSM will convene here in Reykjavik, Iceland during the first week of February. Our daily meetings are scheduled from February 5th to 9th. Throughout the Summit, the CSM will chat directly with development teams who are building updates and features for the 2024 Summer and Winter expansions. Additional discussions will cover the progress of other CCP projects in relation to EVE Online. On Friday, the CSM will present various topics company-wide at CCP. This addition to the Summit format has proven to be extremely valuable.
Here are the Summit topics, listed in no particular order:
- Introductions with the EVE Senior Leadership Team
- CSM Program Status and Evolution Ideas
- EVE Quality of Life Changes & Tech Chat
- Ship Balance Part I: Small & Medium Scale
- Alliance Tournament Plans and Evolution
- Presentation & Discussion from the EVE Data Team
- Homefront Initiative: Plans for Summer and Winter 2024
- Heraldry & Ship Customization: A Look Ahead
- Team Security: Status & Health Report
- Resources, Industry, and LP (Loyalty Points) Ecosystem Discussion
- Project Awakening Chat & AMA
- Empires at War: Nullsec, Resources & Conflict Drivers
- EVE Vanguard: Future Plans & Updates
- UI/UX Chat & Updates
- Community Development & Tools
- Monetization & Sales
- Ship Balance Pt II: Large Scale, Capital, and Supercapital
- EVE Leadership AMA & Final Thoughts
In total, this will amount to approximately 40 hours of discussions spread over five days.
We plan to release the meeting notes from the Summit topics as soon as possible post-Summit. Historically, compiling and redacting sensitive information has taken several weeks. This year, we are contemplating releasing more detailed CSM Summit notes towards the end of the term. This approach, requested by both players and the CSM, aims to enhance transparency. We will keep you updated on the potential release format and timeline.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to raise them here.
