As you may or may not know, Eve went on sale (for like 7 bucks for a new account) on steam, so I and 4 other friends bought the game totally unaware of how the game is meant to be played or what you do besides fly around in space.
I was really taken aback by all the hate and flame on the forums, as I've been thoroughly enjoying myself as have my friends. That said, I also really really enjoy how the inventory is set up. I'm not sure how it was before, so I don't know what I'm missing, but the inventory as is is pretty user friendly and kickass.
I also think it's silly for -anyone- to claim the game is dying. We've only been playing a few days, but there's 20-40k players online at all times. If there was only a total of 40k unique users, spending ~$12 a month on the game, that's still $480,000 a month. And i'm sure there is a lot more than 40k unique subs.
I just wanted to offer my input on all your silly whining. Of all the game communities (League, WoW, MC most recent) i haven't seen such a big whiny WE'RE GONNA UNSUB mess, ever. It's simply astounding.
Even if I don't continue to play after one month, this game is beautifully crafted and incredibly in depth, it's just amazing. I'm enjoying myself, and it's too bad so many of you can't seem to do the same
EDIT: I also realized walking around may be a new feature? I actually thought it was really cool heh, why does no one want this? Kinda defeats making a character if you can't see him. I thought walking around in a little spacestation was interesting even if it adds nothing to gameplay. (also thanks for the steam sale to get us to try the game out Eve devs or steam devs, whoever does that) |

But I've found this one is particularly unhappy :p Do you yourself dislike the game? I'm enjoying it. |

Is there a 3rd rule ? Nobody is happy about nobody being happy? |

There is only so much you'll learn from the tutorials. Yes after completing the Industry and Business 10 mission tutorials i'm sort of at a loss, is there somewhere else I should venture for more missions, or begin my mining industry? |

Thanks for the info again! My friends and I are hoping to get another 2 friends to join up, and we'll hopefully start up a tiny mini corp just for us to have fun in. I understand going with one of the industry giants is probably better, but something about this game feels more fun and rewarding when sticking to close friends :)
I'll check out that subforum though! |

I apologize if this is an incorrect summary |
