Ta'jek Angels Of Death EVE Free Worlds Alliance	Posted - 2009.07.13 14:56:00 - [31] Quote: Q u o t e: I tried EVE once, everything i so #%@ed up after like 15 mins i accidently blew my own ship up for some #%@ing reason! logs out and unintstalls EVE Online requires an IQ of at least 50 to play. Not surprised you logged out. I lol'd when I read this quote...
Flossy Sock	Posted - 2009.07.13 15:20:00 - [32] Thing is Vanilla Wow really was a good game. Big battles in Hillsbrad, going back and forth between SS and TM was alot of fun. Even the High Warlord grind was semi-fun (even if it was 3 months of 18 hours a day playing..."shudders") before X-realm bg's,etc and it actually felt like the grinds meant something(not much, but something). Wow now is truely awful, the way the game has been changed is quite sad, epixx for everyone and absolutely meaningless grinds (achievement points anyone ^^). I started playing Eve just over a month ago and I love the idea of it almost being a real world with real consequences where anything is possible. It really isn't surprising that people get put off though. If I wasn't truely bored after 4+ years of playing Wow and felt Eve was the only other game on the market which might satisfy me, i'd have probably given up like so many others. If you come to Eve from Wow it is a truely gigantic change of pace, most people just can't handle it.
Drunk Driver Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2009.07.13 15:35:00 - [33] WoW spelled backwards is MoM. Therefore... WoW players want to have sex with their Moms! Disgusting....
Traidor Disloyal Private Nuisance	Posted - 2009.07.13 15:43:00 - [34] Why I like Eve (been playing since August 2006) and will never go back to WoW (played from January 2005 to August 2006): I like being able to kill corpmates who irritate me. ************************************************* I have three characters. One has Cov Ops V along with all the bells and whistles that goes with it.

News at 11. This. Also.. I fail. - I'd tell you why but then I'll have to kill you. And to kill you I'd have to log in. And to log in I'd have to stop browsing these forums. Both you and me knows that'll never happen.
Sparedon	Posted - 2009.07.13 22:09:00 - [38] I played wow religously from release to Feb of this year. The reason I played? nothing else better out there, that I knew about. And im one that likes to surf for other games too, i love flash games and what not. Anyway a friend of mine started playing EvE and got me into it. First time around I was really only playing it cause our group of friends were. I loved that you could let the skills go even logged out, but at the time was kinda boring as i was ina newb frig and didnt know much about such a different mmo. I love the fact that its only at around 40k people on, 10 mill would make it stupid slow... though thats a target rich environment... hmm... Anyway, i came back recently and fell in love with it again. Its drastically different than any other mmo out there. It really is a sandbox and it keeps getting bigger, and the devs give you new and shiney plastic shovels and dump trucks to play with ^^. WoW was and is a great game but its been the same damn grind since release, where as EvE is somewhat more dynamic in that its largely player controlled. THAT is a game i like to play. Dont think I'll play anything else for a while and even then, i can play another one while my eve character is skilling up All in all its a very flexible and NON time dependant game. Kudos to the devs and to all you griefers out there, keep up the mayhem
Youjustwant Easykills	Posted - 2009.07.13 23:08:00 - [39] Originally by: Flossy Sock Thing is Vanilla Wow really was a good game. Wow now is truely awful, the way the game has been changed is quite sad, epixx for everyone and absolutely meaningless grinds (achievement points anyone ^^). My thoughts exactly, the reason why I stopped playing it. Wasn't a bad game at all before WOTLK. Easymode raids ruined it.
Cyrrus Ex Gallente Mercurialis Inc. Wildly Inappropriate.	Posted - 2009.07.13 23:53:00 - [40] Eve was/will/is be the only MMO I play/ed. WoW players clearly dont have the intellect to deal with eve (except those who have come from wow and stayed with us in eve and kept at it).

Victoria Akmea Gallente Taishite Kami	Posted - 2009.07.14 02:16:00 - [45] I showed that graph to a WoW friend I have. He said that's bulls**t and he would prove me wrong. He lasted 2 days in the trial before saying EVE was too confusing, he's going back to WoW.

Msgerbs Gallente Imperial Assualt Guild	Posted - 2009.07.14 02:48:00 - [47] epic lulz, this thread provides. I love how they talk about "lack of physics". So tell me. If I bump into something in wow, what happens again? Scenery? Because I suppose you play the game to walk around and look at the trees. And more trees. And I suppose having everyone split until a bazillion servers makes the game more massive. Seems to me like most of these people saying this BS are just too stupid and wussy for eve and will make up anything to make themselves feel better.

Kage Toshimado Gallente The Logistical Nightmare	Posted - 2009.07.14 12:23:00 - [51] Anyone else in here training an alt to pass on to their son or daughter some day? I eagerly await (still about 3 years from now) when I can hand my boy the keys to his first Basilisk so he can remote support his father's failing shields.

I wonder what you are planning to do when your son ransom you for your car keys iot to rep your shields though:) I never played WOW and i never played another MMO before.The fact that losing a fight means that i actually lose something will make every fight interesting in EVE.I would love to have some more "sim" style flying,but i am not really sure that it would kept the game running with all the lag that this gameplay could generate.
Poreuomai Minmatar Mirkur Draug'Tyr Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2009.07.14 13:09:00 - [53] Edited by: Poreuomai on 14/07/2009 13:15:13 Quote: EVE is the worst MMO every made in my opinion. Common example of EVE gameplay: Spend 10 hours figuring out the controls Start up your crappy ship Get a few missions you don't understand Get told by the tutorial to mine instead of do your missions Spend 10 hours mining to get money Get killed by space pirates Lose all your cargo and ship Do it over again Get a level up and think ''woohoo, I can kill those mean pirates now'' Find out that levelling up takes days to actually do. Get bored and see what the PvP is like Mercilessly attack some poor sod mining Get blown up by space police who come from nowhere Fly your pod which goes at 1 mph to the space station for a new ship Get killed by the space station because it now sees you as hostile Get cloned and put in a new ship Leave the space station Get shot by space police rabbles on for 20 years And that's the entire EVE gameplay in a nutshell. How not to play EVE - I can see someone rage quitting after that. Quote: i first make a ship and have to go through 3 hours of mind numbing tutorials which make almost no sense or explain things like im a baby (you see that glowing icon on you left which has a map icon? that is your map!oh no really? i thought it was my ships toilet exaust port)-baby (when you finish talking with an agent use you adress book to open the space station that is in the system that you bookmarked to when you talked to the agnet and you clicked his mission objectives! whait what?! i have to use which thing?)-no sense when you finnaly do go out and try stuff for the first time,you realise the first fatal flaw of EVE. absolutely no flying control of your ship! thats right,all you do is eighter set the autopilot or doubleclick in space. you cannot turn your ship,rotate it, or make complex flying meuveours(ala star wars type space fighting) all you do is click the autopilot or you doubleclick into space,and you ship automatically goes there with full thrust(making the point of speed pointless since youre always going with maximum thrust) PVP.is a complete joke from a newbs standpoint.altho i belive its more complex when you get those battleships and such. all i do is click my target,lock on to it,and click my turret buttons.meanwhile i try to have it whitin optimal range. thats it,it doesnt change at all.the winner is the guy who had better shields/armour or weapons.there is no dodging the hits,since youre locked on and the only modifier if you hit/get hit is the range and perhaps some modules you can install. ... the world is pretty bleak.there are perhaps 1000-10000 different solar systems AND THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME! each system has a sun,some planets,moons and asteroid systems. To be honest I think he does have some valid points there even though his post misses a few vital things. --- *Let My People Go*

I wonder what you are planning to do when your son ransom you for your car keys iot to rep your shields though:) Inside I would shed a tear of joy that my son was growing up to be such a wonderful pirate. After I paid him though... I would bide my time. During his next engagment I'd reach over and unplug his network cable.

That would probably be a greater lesson than anything else, too. Kage, I approve of your idea and might just follow it. My son is still a little too young even for 'a few years off,' but when it comes that time, if he wants, he's got a well skilled character of his own to mess around with. (I'm assuming your son is only about 9 or 10 or so, cause I'm sure an intelligent 12 year old can play this game if guidance is available. )
The PitBoss Caldari Interstellar Brotherhood of Gravediggers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2009.07.14 16:47:00 - [56] CCP PLEASE forgive me for posting a picture to the forums BUT I Just wanted to illustrate WHY I DON'T PLAY WoW .... its because: I COULD NEVER LOOK THIS GOOD IN A TOWEL.

This That and I can lose my stuff in PvP...which makes thing more interesting...and i can take other people stuff that they have worked for = FUN AS HELL!!! also lol's at the guys in FW that were bragging about how uber they are at MMO's because they have a lvl 80 rouge in WoW lol
Kage Toshimado Gallente The Logistical Nightmare	Posted - 2009.07.14 17:45:00 - [58] Originally by: Fumen I'm assuming your son is only about 9 or 10 or so, cause I'm sure an intelligent 12 year old can play this game if guidance is available. ) You're dead on with the age, excellent deduction. He'll be 10 in October. Hell look over my shoulder on occasion when I play EVE and knows he isn't ready just yet to take on the learning process. He's done pretty well at the RTS games like Age of Mythology and Dawn of War II but only because of a lot of trial and error. Trial and error in EVE will drive him to a -10 sec status I fear.
Ohh Yeah	Posted - 2009.07.14 18:15:00 - [59] Kage, I started to play WoW with my dad a few years ago, except I was the mentor (exploitable to the max). It was a lot of fun. He still plays on occasion and I've told him to get EVE, but he says he doesn't have the time. I explained how skills work and how he doesn't have to be playing to progress his character, but he claims that he doesn't have the spare time to learn how to play the game. I suppose it's a legitimate complaint. Every time he walks into my room and I'm on EVE, he usually stands and watches for a good two or three minutes before saying that it looks more complicated than WoW and walks out of the room. He also informed me that I do a lot of "spinning around your camera when you're docked".
Awesome Possum Insert Obscure Latin Name	Posted - 2009.07.14 19:03:00 - [60] Edited by: Awesome Possum on 14/07/2009 19:04:24 Originally by: Kage Toshimado During his next engagment I'd reach over and unplug his network cable. This is why Kage is great. I've said a few times that being successful in EVE mirrors ways to success in RL in quite a number of ways. Should I ever have a kid, and if Eve is around in some way, I'll be handing that kid a dictionary, calculator, and personal account when they turn 10yrs old and wish them luck in conquering the universe. ♥ Wreck Disposal Services
