What is the true meaning of sandbox when referred to as a sandbox game?
Specifically, what is CCP's ruling on what constitutes a sandbox game.
I heard it mentioned a few times at fanfest that EvE is a true sandbox game, however i can not find anything in writing on the wiki or elsewhere that actually goes in-depth as to what a sandbox game is. |

Its like a child's sandbox.
You are given an enviroment and what happens in that enviroment is pretty much compeltely up to you. |

So then if CCP were to mess with that environment, then it truly isnt a sandbox, is that what you are saying? |

I was looking for CCP's definition of it, that was plainly stated in the OP. If you could link me to such information on the eve wiki or website, I would be very appreciative.

I am not sure what you are referencing. I however am just looking for a hard info as what CCP's definition of a 'sandbox game' is. I've heard people say Ultima Online was a 'true sandbox' and then say eve is the next best thing to come along since Ultima Online.
I guess I'm wondering how and why does CCP call EvE a sandbox game.
As I have stated, if anyone could provide me a link to where CCP talks about EvE and it's 'sandbox' description, I would be appreciative. (I've said this a few times now btw) My post is pretty basic and benign in nature. |
