I am waiting yet for WIS and for planets like these in EVE. I know that Infinity is only a promise, and not a real mmorpg. But i think that EVE is only a good mmorpg, but not a legendary mmorpg, while the planets donŠt be great.

Ya see, they need to bring all of the other planets in EVE up to date, not just w-space planets. Right now the plantes are big sacks of bland, everything is low res, overly gassy, and overly cloudy. I remember the Planets that looked like Jupiter, then they removed them and replaced them with these colorless slacks of bland. EVE graphics are not up to date till they replace all of the current planet textures high res planet textures, that actually look epic!!!

That first one is stunning.
Not only stunning, but interestisng from a backstory perspective as well.
That screen is taken in unknown space, and there's lights on that planet, which suggests someone is living there. The question is if it's more sleeper drones or actual alive-and-well sleepers.

Lets hope for ccp this does not come out, because if it does i for one will be jumping ship and swiming over there. Been keeping a track on Infinity for sometime now.

Maybe it's the last stronghold of the Talocans?

There are back story reasons for that. I'm just too lazy to look it up. Similarly, the reason out ships act like they are in a liquid environment is because of the drag their warp engines make on the fabric of space around them.

Is it really eve? Can't wait for the new background+planets.
The light are indeed interesting, but I bet it's not particularly intended.

Hrmm, cant say infinity looked that impressive. Was great panning around planets but the space graphics are a tad lacking. That and their idea of showing off space combat was switching scenes every half second and flashing lights. The one video running down the side of a battleship was decent but then I remembered eve videos which show off ships in the same manner yet better (not that you can look at ships like this if you are actually doing something anyway).

That was the first thing I thought as well.
On a side note, does anyone know or have any idea when the hell we're supposed to be getting the new planets/backdrops in non-wormhole space?

It is still in the early stages of game-development. So far you are correct in that there are no real finished gameplay mechanics, but the graphics and universe engine is almost finished and people are working on suggestions for gameplay. I for one am confident that it will be released in the next 5 years, probably in the next 2. I'm definitely going to play it when it is released, and will be helping with development where possible.
Now please stop spreading spurious pessimism with no basis in fact.

How long has it been going now, 5 years?. It's an interesting little project that will not scale or work as a game whatsoever, if their current plans are what they actually implement.

The problem for me isn't the graphics of the planets so much as the fact that they seem so small.
They seem to be the size of a warp bubble or something, while other games bring you so close you can barely see the curvature of the planet's surface.
I really hope CCP overhauls the whole system to make them seem bigger. A simple re-texture would be very disappointing.

There's one guy working on the entire game engine. Don't be surprised it is taking a long time. I do still have faith that it will be finished though. I think writing a whole procedural galaxy engine, graphics engine, and physics engine is a bit more work that just coding a UI and some multiplayer code (which is mostly done already), and working out the finer details of gameplay.
I'm not meaning to sound like a fanboy here, I like both EVE and Infinity, but from what I have seen the gameplay in Infinity will be MUCH deeper than that in eve.

Every time someone links to Infinity it reminds me of an old friend in eve. if it eventually does come to light, i'll play it at least once in their memory since i have not seen nor heard of them for a long time. Even if it sucks.
But alas, my common sense tells me its Vapourware, but i hope not.

This, imo. A couple of the most overwhelmingly disappointing experiences I've had in Eve were first realizing I could warp to planets (and realizing they're pitifully small and poorly textured) and seeing my first capital ship in-game, and finding it embarrassingly small. I've come to accept the capital ships, but the orbital bodies need to be overhauled.

uh im not pessimistic. all it takes is one look at the game's forums. theyre still brainstorming ideas, and they arent really looking too good. judging by how huge they plan on making the universe, it will essentially end up being an exploration simulator with little player interaction.
if its gameplay ends up being better than eve's, i switch over faster than you can blink.
