Edited by: Inquisitus on 28/08/2005 12:56:56 I can't stop laughing at when the OP said "It took me a few hours to realize that it's the same as all other MMORPG's". If you've only played EVE for that long, you've only experienced about 1% of the game .
The thing that makes EVE so great is that it is totally unique, there are no other MMOs like it. If you want a shallow game you can jump into and experience it's full extent instantly, stop trolling and play World of Warcraft. If you want a game of amazing depth that is crafted by the players themselves, and will last you years, play EVE. __________________

this thread makes me laugh.
Why are you taking this guy serious anyway ? It's not like he knows what eve gameplay is like. He couldn't, since he never played the actual game.
Your first half year in eve is one huge tutorial. Consider yourself and your opinion without value during that time.

i stopped reading after:
"I wasn't able to cringe myself past the tutorial as I found out a few things that I just can't live with."
any possible concern this inDUHvidual might have is completely without backing if he hasn't even gone through the tutorial.
go jump back on your treadmill and carebear it up with the rest of the everquesters.

Well at least thread gave me a couple quotable quotes, and a good laugh if nothing else.

Hmm - ive read most of this and have to say that I partially agree with Mort - I love eve and have built up my main char to 19m skillpoints since I started but I did think a while back it would be nice if there was a way of just finding unique ships in space or getting someone into your crosshairs and wearing them down 'manually' - I like the current combat system as well so I dont know if its possible to somehow integrate them ? Im Phoenix's wife and I do all the talking so keep it polite ! |

If you don't like the game don't play it, there's other fitting MMOs out there that will suit your tastes.
EVE is not perfect, but it's unique, and the EVE the devs envision it to be is apparently, the EVE I'm addicted to and love to play.
So, if you begrudge every hour played... DON'T play it. Go play something you can enjoy, and spare us some time to read things that haven't been said. Why some people wallow in their own misery when there's a door behind them remains a mystery to me.

Realistic Fantacy and scifi is based on scientific theory (I don't get how this is hard to understand). It's based on things that Scientist believe in but can't make happen or prove yet.
Mort,
This is from websters dictionary:
Main Entry: fantasy Function: noun Inflected Form(s): plural -sies
the power or process of creating especially unrealistic or improbable mental images in response to psychological need <an object of fantasy>; also : a mental image or a series of mental images (as a daydream) so created.
Main Entry: science fiction Function: noun : fiction dealing principally with the impact of actual or imagined science on society or individuals or having a scientific factor as an essential orienting component.
Main Entry: realistic Function: adjective 1 : concern for fact or reality and rejection of the impractical and visionary. 2 : fidelity in art and literature to nature or to real life and to accurate representation without idealization.
'Realistic Fantasy' is a contradiction in terms, deal with it. The only thing that would come close to that would be an halucination of something that you have desired or fatasised over. For example; people agreeing with you all the time.
EvE is Science Fiction based. And that's a fact.
Love and hugs,
AK.

PPS: I Think you meant Grendel not Grandal. It was Grendel that was the monster in Beowulf. I'm also sure you meant to use Mort in the 'Killing' sense of the word, but I think you have proven that it means the other, which is 'very small french horn' that are blown when Fawns are killed on hunts.

1 - This should be in 'Out of Pod Experience' Forum 2 - If you're not happy with the game, make suggestions on how to improve it. 3 - This should be locked, saying you're leaving is ok, ranting and raving about things is not constructive or helpful and should not be tolerated.
Any forum mods want to take this up???

Yeah EVE IS a very FUN game and I truely enjoy it but as soon as another space based MMOG comes along that has any level of physical reality ( boy is this an oxymoronic statement! ) like the old Frontier Elite games, I'll be gone from EVE in a New York minute. A ship banking in space to make a turn like an airplane does in the sky is one of the things about EVE to be incredibly lame and soo wrong in soo many ways.

Summerizing all the above, in a quote from Orson Scott Card - "If you press a button and it happens, its science fiction. If you pray to a tree, rub a talismen to get it done, it's fantasy."
I can honestly say that I've been playing for a while now, and am pretty bored with EVE too. I've done Player vs Enemy, Player Vs Player, Player vs Asteriod, gang of pirates vs newb in reaper, and it's all pretty pre canned. THe thing that's nice about eve is that there is no level grind. THe thing that sucks about eve is there is no real npcs, or even real non-combat related content. The story is non-existant and the only reason people play is that it looks pretty, they (may) have freinds here, and that PvP can spring up just about anywhere. The 'player driven' market is only player driven in the sense that experianced guys gank newbs and make them buy more stuff, until they figure out to either avoid the prat gankfests, join an allaince or corp with thier own pet prats, or take up can theivery.
