CCP’s April Fools(?)

Published on:

This year’s April Fools from CCP dropped in the form of another dev blog listing changes, along with a big “This is a Joke!” disclaimer. Upon reading the article it became evident that without this disclaimer the changes and quality would be indistinguishable from any given devblog. We have joked before that The Eve Onion will be out of business because we can’t top what CCP does, but in this instance, I feel a better April Fool’s would have been to not disclose this was a joke and left everyone feeling ambivalent as usual, and then simply never implementing the “GHOST” clone system or “Epic Insurance”. Nobody would have batted an eye until controversial changes didn’t happen.
