EVE Online : CSM Interview - Dierdra Vaal

Posted Oct 22, 2009 by Jon Wood

At MMORPG.com, we've talkeda lot about EVE Online's Council of Stellar Management program that allows players to elect a board to consult with developers on the future of their game. Today, we start an interview series with the people on the council, putting faces to the program. We begin the series by talking to Dierdra Vaal, the program's chairperson.

What was the most exciting news at CCP's Fan Fest?

Dierdra Vaal:

For me it was the new planet graphics. Sure Incarna, Dust and Dominion are cool, but we didn't hear anything really new about them. We knew the planets would get new graphics but man, CCP really exceeded my expectations with them.

Good interview although I expected it to be a bit longer with some insight into what issues/ideas the CSM is currently pushing at the top of their list.

I do like the 'Corruption' idea. Being a fairly new player who just started this past summer, I am testing the waters of low sec space. Even in this early stage I can see that there isn't a whole lot of reason to be there besides the better mining opportunities (and the subsequent risk of attack and running headlong into a camp). One of my alts is taking a somewhat shadier career path  than most of the 'team' on my accounts but the only avenue open (at least until I get him much more skilled) is pure piracy which I'm not real crazy about. Meanwhile another alt is the extreme opposite who I use to hunt the criminal element , but the current bounty system leaves a LOT to be desired. A Corruption expansion with a new Bounty Hunter System would be a real boon to low sec by making it an important stepping stone between high sec and lawless 0.0 space while at the same time giving players on the extreme poles of good/bad something to really sink their teeth into.

Anyway, keep up the good work CSM!

I think that EVE is evolving in many directions, creating such an universe we players like to inhabit, and it's getting better and better. While Dominion & New Eden are coming just to expand the reality of EVE in short term we will wait for Incarnation. I know this feature will come in the long run but still keeps an extra interest.

And oh, yes, we'll meet in Dust 514. I'd like to conquer at least a planet, who wouldnt?

Learn from Darkfall supporters, they had Faith and AV released the game, when the vast majority was doomsaying it as pure vaporware. Have Faith and We Shall Walk Into Stations, and all will have rejoicing...
