DocDot	Posted - 2009.06.12 04:55:00 - [1] Thousands of years ago, brave capsuliers came through the EVE gate with wonder and expectation. After those brave souls weathered and survived the EVE gate more and more came with the promise of a new life. Then one day the gate collapsed and that placental link to the motherland was severed. Thousands of years passed and humans have grown and forgotten about Earth, unaware that they descended from only one single planet. Question is what has happened to Earth??? I think that the devs should should, after they are done with WiS should create a contest about finding earth with clues and information that could be traded on the market and make a story with cinamatics that tell us what happened to it. Now your probably asking "how do you get to earth without the EVE gate" well in the story another gate could form or people from earth could have come with technology allowing them to jump back with ease. The devs could decide the fate of earth and if it has been destroyed, or taken over by another alien race or is it in tact??? just a thot -Doc.

Shah Pahlavi	Posted - 2009.06.12 05:00:00 - [3] It could be called Eve Online: Galactica.
Quantar Raalsken Gallente	Posted - 2009.06.12 05:02:00 - [4] also most i think would agree...going home or fighting the Terrans would be the subject of an EVE movie id suspect the reason for fighting would be that they find us to be too much a threat but uncontrolable...
Shah Pahlavi	Posted - 2009.06.12 05:05:00 - [5] Then maybe Eve: Starcraft would be a better name for the expansion...
Intense Thinker Minmatar	Posted - 2009.06.12 05:06:00 - [6] Earth is just the stuff of legend and myth

What makes you think they haven't? Feel free to mail me in game and Ill share what I think I know...
Spurty Caldari Ore Mongers BricK sQuAD.	Posted - 2009.06.12 06:41:00 - [8] you guys are soo silly. Obviously, back on Earth, people are becoming fatter and sloth like hunchbacks on their computers, controlling the ships via a program installed on a local machine that requires an operating system to do anything useful. Eventually, these people will become so fat, they will actually resemble 'Eggs' (or PODs if you like). Thats what is happening on Earth
Kyra Felann Gallente Noctis Fleet Technologies	Posted - 2009.06.12 07:04:00 - [9] Originally by: DocDot Thousands of years ago, brave capsuliers came through the EVE gate Wrong. Pod technology wasn't invented until thousands of years after the EVE gate collapsed.
Pytria Le'Danness Placid Reborn	Posted - 2009.06.12 07:45:00 - [10] It's a total wildcard. After the EVE gate collapse the civilisation collapsed and a lot of the technology was lost over several millenia (IIRC some 20k years passed after the collapse). The Earth side of the galaxy wasn't in a good shape either, that's why a lot of people chose to migrate to the EVE systems. Thus Earth ships could be super advanced Enterprise-look alikes or steam powered contraptions firing crossbow bolts. Fact is, who needs Earth? The existing background already offers so many possibilities, I think you don't need to add something that so far has carefully been written out of the equation.
Kyoko Sakoda Caldari Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2009.06.12 07:56:00 - [11] Earth is a dream. Anyway, the Eve gate collapse would not have destroyed Earth as it lied some 310 light years away. So we don't know the current state of civilization back home.
lollerwaffle Sileo In Pacis The Space P0lice	Posted - 2009.06.12 08:02:00 - [12] Originally by: Kyoko Sakoda So we don't know the current state of civilization back home. Recent years have brought about an increase in terrorism-related activites, as well as counter-terrorism 'wars'. The world economy is suffering at the moment, in particular banks and the housing market are in dire straits. Financially, most developed countries are facing the worst recession since the WWII. Everyone is beginning to realise that global warming is no longer just a myth. In sports, Cristiano Ronaldo is linked with a move to Real Madrid. Australia have been knocked out of the TwentyTwenty Cricket in the opening stages. More news at 10.
IncognitoX23	Posted - 2009.06.12 08:07:00 - [13] I thought I read somewhere that there was an expedition sent to attempt to find the way back to earth at one time? Signature locked.

Admiral Valdore	Posted - 2009.06.12 09:59:00 - [15] All this has happened before, and all this will happen again
Freyya Advanced Planetary Exports Intergalactic Exports Group	Posted - 2009.06.12 10:15:00 - [16] Originally by: lollerwaffle Everyone is beginning to realise that global warming is no longer just a myth. Those who started believing in the myth lost 100 IQ points...putting more than half the world's population into a backwards evolution cycle..
Abrazzar	Posted - 2009.06.12 10:18:00 - [17] Earth is little more than a creation myth. If they ever open up the EVE gate again, I really like to see the old earth civilization as one big graveyard with only some ghouls and space primitives left. Just like civilization in EVE went down the drain, the whole earth empire (or whatever) went down, just they got the worse part of it. Maybe get some history on what happened to the EVE gate in. I entertain the idea that the gate was intentionally collapsed to stop a expeditionary force from taking over EVE from earthside when the new colonies refused to pay taxes to the earth conglomerates. History repeats, just the results get more and more disastrous.
Rodj Blake Amarr PIE Inc.	Posted - 2009.06.12 10:26:00 - [18] I think that the Eve gate was collapsed intentionally by the people back on Earth. What they did was say to a load of useless types, (the likes of management consultants, hairdressers and telephone sanitisers) "you go through the gate and set up some colonies, and we'll be along later". Then they collapsed it.

MooKids Caldari The Graduates Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2009.06.12 12:36:00 - [20] Originally by: Rodj Blake I think that the Eve gate was collapsed intentionally by the people back on Earth. What they did was say to a load of useless types, (the likes of management consultants, hairdressers and telephone sanitisers) "you go through the gate and set up some colonies, and we'll be along later". Then they collapsed it. So that would mean that everyone back on Earth is dead from unsanitary telephones? Back on track, what if back on Earth, and the reason for the gate collapse is that there was a massive alien invasion. Destroying the gates was their first strike attack, splitting us in two and preventing anyone on this side from knowing. Then a couple years down the road we reopen the gate and kick some alien ass, freeing our enslaved brethren. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity.
Sun Clausewitz	Posted - 2009.06.12 14:45:00 - [21] Originally by: lollerwaffle Idiots are continuing to believe that global warming is more than just a myth. FIXED it for you Pick Three: Caldari/PVP/Solo/Success

Il Morte	Posted - 2009.06.12 15:15:00 - [23] Was it not the Gallente that came from Earth through the EVE gate. Then the Federation split and the Caldari State was Born as part of the Federation and eventually the left in a revolution. The Ammarrians were always here along with the Minmatar. That being said the fact that the Gallente were of Earth french origin, The poeples of Earth Destroyed the stargate simply so they French won't come back (why does everyone hate the french anyway. They have good cheese, good wine, and a great way to make love) So most races never had anything to do with earth, and if they did well can you imagine what would happen Amaarians would enslave them and force religion down there throats Minmatars would buy up all the duct tape and Sun Glasses on the market, causing millions of engineers to commit suicide Caldari's would immediatley go to the nation created on a capitalist society and realize they elected a socialist and have no capital or corporate identity and kill them Gallente could not understand why we all just couldn't get along and try to negotiate peace in the middle east. After all are we not all children of the stars. would be there mantra Thus causing earth to create another gate to get the hell away form these lunatics.

I remember something along those lines being in an eve fiction a while ago too. Perhaps it's been retcon'd in to oblivion? Of course, time based language substitution is an interesting thing. Talonac through many itterations could of once been Terran. Sleeper might have been Seperatist. Empires tend to rise and fall. But that's all silly.

After all are we not all children of the stars. would be there mantra Thus causing earth to create another gate to get the hell away form these lunatics. Wrong. We all came from Earth. After the gate collapsed the colonies all pretty much died off. Once we sorta got things going again is when everything started working properly. The Amarrians were first to be "reborn" from the tumult. Everyone else came along afterwards. We're all human. This is all explained in one of the original EVE Intro movies. They should put it back.
Magnus Orin Minmatar Northern Storm Tenth Legion	Posted - 2009.06.12 16:16:00 - [26] Earth exists, but is completely irrelevant to the EVE Universe. We will never go back or make contact with them. That is part of the beauty of the EVE setting.

The Jove were first by a very long way. The Jove never really went under, being at the opposite side of the cluster from the gate. Though they had their own nadir points in history. -------- Ideas for: Mining
5pinDizzy	Posted - 2009.06.12 17:36:00 - [33] Edited by: 5pinDizzy on 12/06/2009 17:41:33 Wouldn't it be interesting if they found out earth was destroyed somehow? Putting a spin on the trajedy of the eve wormhole collapsing into a kindness and a second chance for humanity. It'd be epic drama like when your mothership jumps back to Khanid in Homeworld 1 Mission 3.
Pnandor	Posted - 2009.06.12 17:36:00 - [34] Perhaps the earth was forgotten as JovT?
Neamus	Posted - 2009.06.12 17:48:00 - [35] It would be interesting to open up an expansion in the future with something akin to an "access quest", where perhaps you have complete a set of missions to access new content. It would add a nice bit of role play for those that like it and if its challenging enough be fun for those that simply like killing things.
Taak Coram Gallente Outdated Host Productions	Posted - 2009.06.12 19:03:00 - [36] There must be some way outta here...
Sun Clausewitz	Posted - 2009.06.12 19:09:00 - [37] Forum keeps eating my posts... me not happy. Maybe it will be the 'last' expansion they do before pulling the plug... open a new WH to Earth. I'll bet 10000000000 isk that some lame group will gate camp it, slaughter indy's and shuttles and claim they are hardcore PVP ers Pick Three: Caldari/PVP/Solo/Success
Boris Varshavsky	Posted - 2009.06.12 19:16:00 - [38] Just a thought, and sorta not willing to go through the archives, where specifically was the EVE gate in relation to New Eden? In the middle, sorta like the milky way's super black hole, or somewhere on the edges? Not a troll.
Toriessian Amarr Wormhole-space Surveying and Exploitation	Posted - 2009.06.12 20:19:00 - [39] The Jove should ask the Enheduanni to teleport over there and check.

You know smacktalking from behind an alt is pretty lame, especially when you question the PvP skills of your opponents. While gatecamping is lame, I find it annoying how in virtually every thread you are complaining about pirates and griefers.

The system is still there along with the remnants of the EVE gate.
Anubis Assassin Caldari SandStorm.	Posted - 2009.06.12 22:11:00 - [43] Some of you should really read the chronicles and short stories more :P Lemme help fill in a little back story since CCP saw fit to remove it from the game... The galaxy and all that was around Earth was being consumed by all of the conglomerates. As soon as new territories were discovered, they would be bought up and no one could privately own anything. Companies owned and controlled everything and were all the time warring with each other. It was a mess. Then the wormhole was found. Pioneers and colonists went through the wormhole to start a new life. To begin anew. Then the gate for an unknown reason, collapsed. Almost all of the colonies that went through the wormhole were still reliant on everything earth-side to support them. Once they were cut off, it forced them all into the stone age. Technology was lost and forgotten. The Jove weren't hit as hard as everyone else. I don't know why, I don't think it's ever mentioned. As for everyone else, they all had to start over from square one. These weren't all Earth-like planets either. Most colonies died out. The Amarr were the first to recover and venture into space again where they started to expand their empire. When they ran into other planets with surviving colonies, they would conquer and enslave them. They hadn't gone as far as the Gallente and Caldari home worlds yet though. The Gallente and Caldari actually shared the same system, but didn't even know it until I think it was the Gallente who discovered the Caldari. It was some time until either of them became space bound though. According the the stories, any ships that get too close to the Eve Gate (wormhole) are destroyed. Please feel free to fill in anything I may have left out. I've read all of the chronicles and short stories, but my memory can be kinda fuzzy sometimes, so meh. Also, we all hate the french because they're cowards. As for all of this though, I know we're all supposed to be human and all, but wtf are the Sleepers exactly? As far as I know, they're not just drones. They're in systems apparently far outside our normal reach in the Eve Universe. So are they indeed, actual "aliens"? Are they part of some surviving colonies that just kept going instead of stopping around the Eve Gate like everyone else? Or are they an ancient race from Earth that set out after the Eve Gate collapsed? It's all speculation I guess... Oh, and to find the Eve Gate, open up your star map. Kinda level it out and spin it around. You'll see a funnel shape on the underside leading to a lone system. That would be it. I think it's closer to Amarr space, but it's been a while since I looked, so don't quote me on that :P --------------------------- 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
Milo Caman Gallente Ghost Festival	Posted - 2009.06.12 22:29:00 - [44] Sleepers are (or were) just another race of humans who preceded the current 5 Empires. If they ever Introduced Earth, Aliens or Playable Jove Ships, I would probably drop out of EVE. Xd Out of Sinq
Komen Gallente Domination. THE KLINGONS	Posted - 2009.06.12 22:46:00 - [45] Answer: Who cares? It's just another matter accretion orbiting another star. There are two things I really like about this game: Sci-fi and spaceships, no alien factions, and write your own story... Okay, there are three things...
Wm Shepard	Posted - 2009.06.12 23:17:00 - [46] Originally by: Anubis Assassin Also, we all hate the french because they're cowards. ROFL!... Too funny!
Janice Jankowski	Posted - 2009.06.13 01:36:00 - [47] I have a theory about Earth related stuff in the pipeline due to the addition of natural wormholes (the things that the EVE gate used)
