Aside from Null Sec, how do you plan to compete with this, CCP?

Looks pretty cool but how do you figure they will be competing? It is a single player game.
At least we have something new to refer people to that want eve to be single player.

... by allowing you to interact with a second player? This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

X-Universe always has been different and really cool to play in....I have a cosy feeling when I think of the "Thereshallbewings" cheat in earlier parts. Whole systems stuffed with megafactories that made your pc freeze. BUT its single player and a substitute for when eve servers are down at best.

This gets pretty old pretty quick. Sure, X will probably draw a few players from Eve, but I doubt it will be substantial. It is just a single player... That said it is already starting to raise people's expectations of what a space-sim should be. If all space sims start to have this kind of scale you might find new players saying "Can you do that in Eve?", and when the answer is no maybe they will decide on something else.
I like to think CCP will catch up eventually. No one will be able to do something like this on an MMO scale for some time yet. CCP probably have the best potential if they pull their finger out and move development resources back over to Eve.
I am actually quite looking forward to this and Star Citizen coming out, if only to see what will happen. Like I say though, I doubt it will touch Eve much. "In the age of information, ignorance is a choice." |

Scale or heterogeneity always suffers from that level of detail - too many artist manhours
A lot of games have tried to give players the level editor, but the quality control always suffers.
Maybe they can come up with a really neat algorithm to randomly generate everything? That'd be neat. |

If it were an mmo then yeah, eve could be in trouble. Although the second the goons got into a universe where you can destroy stations.... erm... yeah... that doesn't sound so much fun.
It's not the, it's single player and I play eve for the people. |

--> Been there already
And yeah, looks like EVE is less likely to be able to compete with a whole host of up-coming single-player and MMO space titles that promise proper development. The thing with EVE is that it's been pulled this way and that so many times by an unfocused Dev company (latest is in the Dust direction and look how that has turned out), that the game doesn't really excel at any particular aspect. Some may argue it's a sandbox; SERIOUSLY? That's a na+»ve perception to the fact that EVE simply doesn't have any sort of direction other than "I can shoot other ships conceivably anywhere and that is hardcore and awesome". EVE is a part-time game, made so by the lack of engaging content and the real-life stopwatch it uses as a skill-training mechanic. And who wants to play a stagnant part-time game when there are amazing titles such as X Rebirth and Star Citizen up and coming (and that's just the space genre)? The hard-core elite playerbase in this game will always stay faithful to the title, sure, because they've simply invested too much time in their characters to let them die. But they'll be shooting each other in a very empty universe soon enough. |

Yeah its single player and no substitute for Eve, but I think the Eve designers could get some pointers about the SCALE of objects in the Eve universe. Big things are BIG in this game.
I've only watched the videos of course, like everyone else - and we know how misleading they can be (I was there!) - but holy crap it LOOKS amazing. I get the same feeling looking at this, that I did looking at Eve itself back in 2004/5.
This is what POS's and Stations should be like, IMHO. I have no idea what the technical limitations are that make Eve stations and POS's so tiny in comparison, but hopefully it will go away, and the designers/artists can have some fun building massive structures that we can interact with... Maybe the scale of Eve is just too intrinsic to the game for them to change it properly... maybe it just needs someone to look at this and go 'ohhhhh yeah!' |

sandbox is a joke, its only exist in your head... CCP still influences the ingame environment on such a way that it weaghts more than the player input... thus nooo sandbox |

This is a whole other game. The German Developer Team worked 7 years on it and it will be release in November 2013. I dont thing it will have an impact on EvE. Its a singler player experience. CCP is limited by the engine. The Engine for X Rebirth was just written for this game. CCPs Engine has much problems just to render the Captain Quarter, lol.

All these topics about new scifi games that are going to compete with EVE..Do you people even play EVE?
EVE is a game with a futuristic space setting and the gameplay which many would reffer to as *excel sheets online*. This is to an extent true.
Here is the thing with EVE though: If EVE was a first person shooter set in a fantasy forest Id still play EVE, because it would still be EVE.
EVE is about the sandbox, about the politics, about the player driven world we have helped create over the years. I personally dont care if its sprinkled with spaceships or elves. Hell it could be about mickey mouse for all I care.
Other scifi games wont blow EVE out of the water because the scifi aspect of EVE is not what keeps most people coming back. Most people that start up EVE purely because they want a scifi game probably end up rage quiting anyway. |
