BhallSpawn	Posted - 2009.08.19 12:38:00 - [31] There not? Region sov depends on the success of a console gamer. Yes. They are merging them Not in looks or gameplay, but in consequences... which is what matters in eve-online.

What we do know so far from the press release video and the interview is that it will play a role in sovereignty alongside the other mechanics to gain sovereignty. To put that in simpler terms, regional sovereignty will not rely entirely on a console gamer. If it ends up that way then I will really headdesk, but nothing of the sort has been said so far, and in fact we've been told the contrary. ----- ----- Oh so true (I wasn't sure how big images in sigs could be so I linked to it.

According to the interview with HIlmar, its as simple as this; Eve players supply DUSTers with resources who then fight to gain control of "Cells" on a planet, after X Cells planet is owned by Alliance Y, after X planets, System is owned by alliance Y and after X Systems, Const/region belongs to, alliance Y. Unless he severely oversimplified things, what else could there be to do? _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008 Originally by: CCP Fallout :facepalm:
VonCruix	Posted - 2009.08.19 12:46:00 - [34] Originally by: Blane Xero Unless he severely oversimplified things, what else could there be to do? Wouldn't be the first time. Also, things change, even after they are set in stone.

Unless he severely oversimplified things, what else could there be to do? As I recall he also said that the new mechanic would be used alongside fleet battles and POSes what-have-you to determine sovereignty. Not in so many words but the point was made. The fact is that I sincerely doubt that CCP are going to completely upend EVE mechanics and make sovereignty completely reliant on Dust. Not only would that incite an enormous firestorm from the playerbase, I can't imagine it would be easy to write out the current sovereignty code from the game without messing other stuff up. It would make far more sense logically to have the Dust sovereignty mechanic be part of a greater picture. ----- ----- Oh so true (I wasn't sure how big images in sigs could be so I linked to it.

BhallSpawn	Posted - 2009.08.19 12:47:00 - [36] go watch it again dude at the end of the video he puts up a slide thing kinda like powerpoint where an alliances have to be in tune with each other between console and PC. In other words.. if you own a region, you gotta go thru the hassle of getting another corp filled with console players coming home from middle school to fight your battles planetside for you. One on dust and the other on eve-online The mentality of someone who doesn't own a pc and only owns a console, to get that person on the same page as a hardcore PC gamer.... next to impossible... What does the console gamer care if your alliances loses space that took a month to attain and countless hours of isk grinding and ops. He just turns off his xbox... with hardly no investment in his play experience. meanwhile, the guy on the PC on the other end just lost everything he had... I'm sorry, but that has fail written all over it.

I'm sorry, but that has fail written all over it. I agree. PC gamers who are used to the most extremely hardcore MMORPG ever released are simply not going to mix AT ALL with the console player. The core concept is flawed past the point of ridiculousness. They simply should have released a console game based on EVE and let it go at that. No one would be upset with that. But instead they are releasing a ground game for EVE, and not letting the EXISTING SUBSCRIBERS PLAY IT, unless we go buy another whole SYSTEM not to mention paying for another game. And I hate consoles. I hate the controllers, I hate playing something on a TV instead of a crisp monitor, etc, etc. If I liked console games I'd be playing console games. Fact of the manner is they've opened up a hornets nest here and if they want any semblance of order back they need to come clean and do so YESTERDAY. The longer this goes the more subscribers they lose. NGE, CCP, remember that?

I'm sorry, but that has fail written all over it. So very true. Also, what console gamer is going to pay ú10-ú12 a month to play an FPS? You can't charge us to play on the PC, yet let console players play for free. Someone at CCP really hasn't though this through.

They refused to state prices in the interview I saw.
Tippia Raddick Explorations	Posted - 2009.08.19 13:01:00 - [40] Originally by: BhallSpawn There not? Region sov depends on the success of a console gamer. No. Region sov is influenced by the success of a whole bunch of console gamers. Originally by: Generalissima NGE, CCP, remember that? You mean that thing that changed every last mechanic in the entire game? They probably do, but it isn't particularly relevant. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki

With DUST514 I predict the last bastion of mmorpg vision will crumble, and CCP will have pulled their very own NGE.

They refused to state prices in the interview I saw. I have no idea wether they will charge or not. What I am saying is a) do you really think console gamers are going to pay a monthly fee to play an FPS game, or b), if it is free for them, then why should I pay to play Eve?
Jowen Datloran Caldari Science and Trade Institute	Posted - 2009.08.19 13:14:00 - [44] Originally by: Amarrian Victor b), if it is free for them, then why should I pay to play Eve? Because you are playing EVE Online and not DUST514. That was an easy question, next. ---------------- Mr. Science & Trade Institute
