It's out since late June actually, anyone got it? If not, someone got to go to that office.

CCP are taking out a $20m bond (2.5b isk) for 5 years to help launch DUST.

How long can continue to grow EVE, the game simply for the dairy company that is here to stay?

"First, I would never call EVE dairy. We think about the game that way. In terms of the game came to be, then EVE a bit like Facebook and the question is perhaps: Facebook is here to stay? We think it unlikely that people will simply ruled out all their friends and stop using Facebook.

Uhhh... hm. Can anyone provide a (much) better translation to this question and this answer?

I'm thinking the dairy bits are an idiom similar to "cash cow"

[Sponk]

or 'milking'

I don't think the Great Icelandic Hero who got the last one is active around here anymore.

or 'milking'

No, the idiom is a 'milking cow', e.g. a cow that provides your daily dairy products and thus you take good care of it.

Maybe just ask a dev? We'll get it anyway somehow.

Yes, "is eve just a cash cow now or can it continue to grow?" is basically what the reporter was asking. And the answer was roughly "no, blabla more growth, just starting, all good etc."

Also the annual report shows increased revenue, profit etc. Basically looks good from what I can tell.
