The universe of New Eden as we know it is encapsulated within the server(s?) that CCP calls Tranquility. The infrastructure of this system is located, physically, somewhere in London (reference). When EvE no longer becomes financially viable the project will be cut loose. What will happen to New Eden at this point? Will the infrastructure be re-purposed - New Eden's thousands of star systems imploded beneath the weight of a cataclysmic system format? Or will the last handful of Capsuleers float for the remainder of their days through a Tranquility entombed, forgotten, but left functional? What happens when an MMO dies? Has an MMO ever really 'died'? |

Depends if players want to try to reverse engineer the server side and manage to spoof the routing of the client.

Treason never prospers. What is the reason?
Why, if it prospers, none dare call it "treason."

The community is so tight-knit you may see a spiritual successor take the reigns for as long as online multiplayer gaming exists in it's current form.

I believe the Icelandic government will prop up CCP through various measures for at least 5 years after Eve is no longer profitable. |

What happens is we will log in and connect to little telepresence robots that wander around the CCP offices and we can shoot little pickles at the devs while they build a vampire game or something.

As a final act and tribute to what has been, all of EvE will come together and try to suicide gank Chribbas Veldnaught.
It will be glorious!
It will also likely cause the servers to crash and burn, a truly fitting end of the EvE universe, going out with a bang instead of quietly fading away....

That could be questions to the TQ devs... how many hamsters would take to run TQ at the bare minimum? How does scale the need for more hamsters as more players log in? How large is Sisi, compared to TQ?

I would hope that someone would take over the cost and upkeep of the servers for at least a few more years for the diehards. But itd depend on what CCP wants to do with the IP.
Strength isnt measured in numbers but in force of will. For if one motived willful individual stands many will fall around him that are weak.
