What you need to do, Is go down into town. Buy a nice big whole fish, Personally I prefer mackerel. take your fish home (Taking care not to break it up, its got to be whole) and roll it in olive oil, Put some herbs on it if you want.
Let it sit in the sun for a day or two, then give him a nice hearty slap round the face with it. Don't feel you need to stop at one slap, Really work the cheeks.
Even if it doesn't knock any sense into him, you'll feel miles better

To put it bluntly, what your friend WANTS is a) somewhat cool to have IF it's not just "freelancer" but rather "I-War" style (which is basically a blend between EVE and Freelancer with the best of both) and b) technically impossible at this time - "the hardware, she just can't take it"

i think threads on twitch based EVE make up around 10% of the forums... do a search next time you have to settle such a question.
As mentioned before in the thread - lots more of info to be handled by servers, incompatible with the one-giant-server thing we have going here. -----

EvE isn't atwitch shooter and never will be - every hit is a "dice roll", so to a extent is damage dealt, effects of modules, etc. Only two MMOs Iknow of tried to combine behind-the-scenes statistical calcs with twitch gameplay - and both are dead now. Just too much overhead to marry the two - lag was horrendous once you went over 40 people fighting in any one "zone", clients needing high-end system just to run acceptably, etc.
Current EvE can handle over 800 people on one node acceptably, for comparison.
The two MMOs that died? Auto Assault and Tabula Rasa, neither of which had to deal with psuedo-3D space.
Tell your friend to check out Jumpgate if he wants to see just how fail a twitch space shooter can be.
At least EvE doesn't try to be a Privateer MMO, which to date anyone who's ever tried it has failed...
Ah, I miss Origin Systems, they rocked :(

Awesome!
To try to be helpful. Our guns are on turrets. They can shoot fore, aft, sideways, above and below. Just how would you use them if you're flying from a forward-facing view? You'd have to completely rewrite how Eve works at a fundamental level. And then there's the size of the ships, think of the size, man!

it's issue of scope. EVE is no longer internet spaceships game. adding manual controls for space flight would make absolutely no difference for majority of actions. only piloting frigates, and maybe cruisers, would be affected. anything bigger would be the same, or worse. turning battleship on manual? no, thanks.
tho, would be interesting to see how forward-facing spinal weapons (more damage, restricted arc of fire, reduced angular velocity) would fare against auto-targeting turret mounts (less damage, free angle of attack, angular velocity).

I see you never got a big freighter in Freelancer and used turret view (was it hitting 'h'? can't remember) cause lord knows some of those ships didn't want to turn period. It was hard to use, annoying, and I think I flew into planets a few times cause I couldn't see were I was going.

Agrees. Why don't we incorporate WoW into this sordid mixture too? If you get frustrated with flying your ship, you could go and knock some unsuspecting beastie into a bush, grind up your levels and or RP in some bar. EVE is fine just the way it is.

I think it's odd that this hasn't been mentioned yet, but we're not inside a ship's c*ckpit... If you wanted to manually control your ship, you would have to give up your rights to a clone bay. Yeah, you have fun with that. --------------------------- I have to make my own sig break? WTF? These forums suck CCP, fix 'em or get something better... I'm tired of reading Khraunus' sig every single time I read one of his |
