Note: Not sure if this is the right thread to post this in but since it's partially related to Eve Online figured it was the best bet X_x;
http://www.perpetuum-online.com/
So, after watching the video for this, I noticed a great degree of similarity. Now, I'm not just trying to bash this game or anything about it but I am trying to point out how much of an effect Eve Online has put on the gaming industry that a game would be made with such likeness as to even borrow it's skill training ideals.
Right down to the point of naming some of the skills "Rapid Firing" and "Sharpshooter" on a level scale.
It also has customized fitting windows, open-world PvP in a persistent sandbox, player-driven economy, and corporations.
Coincidence or Eve Forever?

Wait so you have to ctrl+click to lock the target and then fire in pre-determined patterns O_o???

FYI quite alot of us tried (and stopped there) it when CCP burned what little goodwill they had among the players last summer. It definately had potential too, but one vital aspect in EVE is PvP, and that's something those damn robots stink at. It was so bad that when I asked for PvP, some people suggested a certain zone but then replied "why'd you want to go there", mentioning it was no profit in doing so. When I ask about getting drops from kills, stealing loot etc, it caused an outrage, I got namecalled and people immediately suggested I should be banned before I could do such a thing.
It might have a similar skillsystem, but it's definately not similar to EVE gameplay wise. It might cater for some of our highsec carebear that keep screaming for more security (they will find that for their robots), but for your average Joe in EVE, it won't.
And your blantant advertisement for another game is quite damn silly tbfh.
It's not advertisement, I just found it by sheer luck and chance and was like, "This is a lot like Eve Online." In fact, I just quoted my exact words that I stated to myself when I visible saw the website video.
In retort to your fallacy that I am posting repeated advertisement for Perpetuum, I'll remind that in the previous thread that I posted the link concerning such I had very clearly said that I was going to make another thread regarding it. Whether you chose to overlook that and to expand upon it as a further extension of your argument in this thread, or to simply try and make an assumption geared toward my motives and intentions is clearly beyond me. However, in that respect, I have but one thing to say:
I am not advertising for a game I have not played, nor honestly give a **** about, and if you disagree than I invite you to defend your honor in Eve Online =) |
