Another one is the sounds in space. There is no medium for sound to travel through in space.
Also, POSes with storage volumes bigger than their own volume, and the warping and jumping mechanism. There are many many things. The sound one is explained. Quote from the Jovian Wet Grave Chronicle:
"As you know there is no sound in space, but when we were developing the capsules we found that people wanted to use as many of their senses as possible, thus we added the sound. By letting a computer create three dimensional sound we also add to the awareness you have while in battles, for instance."

Well of course there is some scientific basis, what kind of a question is that? It's in space, you see stars, planets, spaceships, there are no elves, there is no magic; the "scientific basis" is obvious.
You should read the entire EVE lore site, but they made the effort to separate the scientific articles from the rest of the lore stories, for ease of googling. Enjoy. |

If it would be, Eve would be a game playing on earth and not in space wouldn't it? well for example, the movie "interstellar" is science fiction, but with a more "solid" scientific ground than Sci Fi flicks of the 60s in EVE, we got wormholes, that's something already down in theory and not that far fetched from what science has discovered rather recently. And yet it is still totally awful.
Most is. I love well written hard SciFi... and there is almost none of if out there, so i have to put up with interstellar quality scifi far too often.
Death and Glory!
Well fun is also good.

Only, they can't say exactly where....or what.... SO... "scientist?" I'm not impressed. "Scientist" is beginning to sound like "The High Priest" says....
EVE physics is as real as it can be and have a playable game that doesn't have players quitting, climbing the walls or face-rolling it. I should think someone could figure this part out if they've set their course for a planet, and an hour later they haven't "gotten there yet." Physics, of course, would have you smash into the surface - gravity and all that. Did you miss the "clone" part, perhaps?
So, how many "is the physics of EVE scientifically comparable" posts is this so far this year? (And, it's still March.)
PS I have to say I AM impressed that "science" has finally decided to accept the fact that consciousness does indeed exist. I know it's not apparent to everyone, (especially the brain dead.) Good to see they're coming around...or coming to, whichever applies.
I'm not sure what 'science' you've been reading, but I suggest you find a new source. Copies of organisms our size would likely only exist in a universe of sufficient size (of which ours is not). The issue of 'multiverse' is rather one of philosophy than of science since we can neither prove nor disprove the concept.
As regards to EVE science, I think I shall take a very electronic age stance stance and address it with 'just LOL'. |

eve makes more sense if you assume everything is happening under water. Also explains why planets are not moving.
how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Yeah, Eve is over the top dramatic here, at the cost of visibility and functionality in some regions.
Less is more.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

Less is more. If you'd like to offer feedback on EVE artwork, I recommend making a post in either a relevant dev blog's comment thread, the Features and Ideas Discussion forum, or the Test Server Feedback forum. Also, please be specific about what you'd like to see done differently.

"Bouncing" off celestials and objects... yeah... 'nuff said.
I'd love to see the introduction of gravity, electromagnetics and other primal forces into the EVE universe. Then let's see how many "cowboys" we have. |

Science realism is a very low priority for EVE unfortunately. Pretty much all attention goes to game balancing.
Even the item descriptions are almost completely lacking in any scientific details. There are some lore stories that cover the science of stargates and clone jumping but they are lacking in many details.
EVE takes place extremely far into the future so much of what is known in this time period is way beyond what we can imagine. So it would not be easy to both balance the game and fully develop the techno mythos. |
