GDC: Ninja RIFT

Jumps Ahead
CCP Unifex — aka Jonathan Lander, Senior Producer of EVE Online — added to the slew of dev blogs recently by reflecting on Crucible and hinting of the future. Unifex reminded players of the large amount of balances, fixes, and tweaks that [...]
Better By Design
With the certainty of a full cargo hold meeting a gate camp — for me anyway — CCP has released a new dev blog. The focus on this occasion being new starter ship designs for EVE Online.
New players will be getting even shinier ships to marvel [...]
A Universe Awaits
