Edited by: Threv Echandari on 16/10/2007 19:17:53 How new is new? I'm almost 2 years old bu I still feel N00bish. Eve has its problems, depth isn't one of them. Lag in Fleet battles is. POS Warfare no ablilty to do tctics besides Blob is another. But IMHO most all the other problems in Eve pale to lag issue. Fix Lag and new play/combat styles will develop I think. The fact that in order to play in fleet battles I have to setup my client for the Crappiest looking graphics in a slideshow and Zoom out so that is all red and purple squares annoys me to no end. (ohy and I have a Core 2 Duo with SLI Graphis and 2Gigs of Ram on a decent DSL connection. its not my setup.)
But.... even with that Eve has me coming back. Now I am playing City of Heroes right now and aside from overly restrictive character naming policies that game is more "Fun" imho than Eve, but its not very deep and once my main reaches 50 I will most likely drop it. (like other MMO's before it.)
The only other MMO which I thought was as cool as Eve and was Brutal with PVP and Death penalties was Neocron. Probably was the coolest Sci-Fi next to Eve, even that got Dull and became a grind. (Grinding for Money is not as bad as Grinding for XP) Anarchy Online was also Fun for a few months (Shout outs to any guys from Agent Sector and Omni Ent). But The Nerf bats were hard and the Sci-Fi-ness not there. It was more like a Fantasy MMO in Sci-Fi Clothes with nano substituting for magic. But what killed it for me was Cross dressing Atrox's with "nano-enhanced" I-beams killing my Agent (with a Rifle type weapon) from across the map.
So, I come back to Eve Warts and all, it just floats my boat. Maybe if another space game comes out with the ability to do PvP, huge Fleet battles, more Realistic Space physics, Line of Site, Planetary bombardment, High powered enrgy weapons (poor Amarr), planetray exploration/exploitation Player markets and ambulation too with Cool Characters in a Gritty Sci fi World (I'm not asking too much am I?),then I may switch from Eve. Until then...Eve is the one.
