EVE need to be more like WoW! The reason WoW have a vast popularity over EVE is, EVE aint like WoW.
I want the following things in EVE that wow have: /duel //When you want to shoot on eachother outside jita 4 - 4 /dance //This one will be a module, that you can activate on you ship. When it's activated, you ship begin shooting harless LAZOARS out in every direction. Just for the look.

Edited by: Actionbastrd on 24/01/2011 23:05:18 Why is WoW so much more vastly popular than EVE? EVE isnt a 14.99 a month daycare service. Having an 11 million playerbase doesn't mean crap when 95% of that statistic is a bunch of braindead dumbtards. Blizzard made a stupidly easy game to pick up on and they are capitalizing hardcore off it. People try to play EVE and see that it's much more complicated and give up and don't bother. I'm not saying EVE is without it's own dumbtards, but it definitely has FAR LESS than WoW does.

Our player base population, at least the vocal minority, can be exceedingly ******ed at times. I think the key difference is we have long term planning and spread sheet skills.

Originally by: Rebelike001 The reason WoW have a vast popularity over EVE is, EVE aint like WoW.
Your trolling aside, popular =/= better. This is actually something I've been wondering when I left WoW - if that game were more like EVE, I'd probably still play it. I mean, the classes themselves are pretty fun, it's just that there's really nothing left to do there for someone like me. I'm fed up with WoW's raiding system for a life time, dungeon queues are close to an hour for dps, player IQ is reaching single digit average, archaeology is a boring grind and that one daily questing zone is like the most morbid zone they've ever added. Why can't I take that sword, walk to Duskwood bridge and demand toll from everyone that wants to pass, lest they be killed? Why can't I become an outlaw, living as a criminal somewhere in the Barrens, while the factions hate me? And the pvp... oh dear god, the pvp.
Still, all those mistakes would be forgiveable under one condition - if the community was half decent. This is where EVE actually wins by leaps and bounds. And you know what? I'll dare say that the very reason EVE's community feels better is because the game's complexity is bound to attract smarter, more mature (though not necessarily older) populace. In the end, by ensuring that EVE remains as it is, a complex sandbox, we also ensure that the community remains better, albeit smaller. Is the game perfect? Far from it, but the people playing it make it a great experience.

The reason Eve isnt as popular as WoW is because:
1)Eve has a huge learning curve. It is a vastly more complicated game. 2)Eve is not an insta gratification game. It requires patience and work/ credit card. 3) CCP didnt use mass advertising to put out a crappy game like Blizzard. CCP focused more on the game and not how many stores they could get their pretty box into so the kiddies could say " mommie i want that!"
Eve is a far superior MMO than WoW and will outlive it as long as CCP doesnt get greedy, lazy, or stops listening to the player base.
If eve were to become more like wow i think i would have to find a new MMO.

Aside the fake economic system tell us where and wy is more complicated. I don't think you have any idea of what you are talking about.
Quote: 2)Eve is not an insta gratification game. It requires patience and work/ credit card.
You are right there, it's more like Asian MMO's where you have to kill 2billions of **** for 6 months before you can do something. Or you get out your credit card to buy your toon and get your instant gratification to come out at this forum and try to give letons. You fail.
Quote: 3) CCP didnt use mass advertising to put out a crappy game like Blizzard. CCP focused more on the game and not how many stores they could get their pretty box into so the kiddies could say " mommie i want that!"
Sorry to break your dream but i never saw that mutch kids in one single wow server than i see here. I never saw at Blizzard forum people talking about Eve, let me tell you wy:they don't care
Quote: Eve is a far superior MMO than WoW and will outlive it as long as CCP doesnt get greedy, lazy, or stops listening to the player base.
I can agree that dev's contact with the crowd is better than blizzard and wow dev's. Now can you explain in what Eve is far superior? - i wouldn't put them face to face and say that. They are completly different. Where Blizzard broke all MMO's standarts and has inovated MMO's to a higher level than any one before, CCP had the brilliant idea of making people play in a single shard at the same time and where players actions can change the whole universe destiny, this is where CCP is different from blizzard strategie game and touch different kinds of players.
Thay are not better or worst, they are different, compare Eve with another spaceship MMO and then you'll be righ but for this one you fail.
If eve were to become more like wow i think i would have to find a new MMO.
Again enlight us with your reasons eve is a spaceship MMO Wow isn't. I would like that CCP could have the same budget than blizzard gives to WOW, this would mean a larger universe, better features because they could have mutch more people working on it.
Wy don't you read the forum threads to see how wrong your opinion is. ________________________________________________

EVE advertises about as heavily as the size of the parent company allows, they're about on par with Blizzard once you take the size difference into account.
The primary advantages WoW has in an audience sense are thus:
(1) Setting - fantasy setting has always been more popular for escapist roleplaying than scifi, for the simple reason that there's an implication that scifi follows, to some extent, the same laws as the real world, so you're not really escaping as such. Additionally, the Warcraft IP is a popular video game series ripped off of another popular existing fantasy setting, so they have a hook into a large existing audience.
(2) Accessibility - given a certain fraction of the time between expansions, you've got the ability to at least see all of the available new content in a given WoW expansion without having to work your ass off to get there. They've had some recent difficulty with this bit, with Wrath of the Lich King being inadvertently made so easy that the 'game' part of the setting was trivial and they lost subscribers, but Cataclysm has found a much better balance.
(3) Player interaction - any given character in WoW is a reasonably viable partner for any other character with some minor spec alteration and gear swapping. Compare this to Eve's extreme specialization, where you cannot realistically take, say, your industrial-trained character along with your buddies doing WH PvP and make a meaningful contribution. People want to be able to play with all their friends, not just the ones with specialized compatible characters.
(4) They were told there would be no math - similar to the point above, the interaction of gear with player abilities is exceedingly simple, meaning that people can simply throw on what they've got and go out to shoot people in the face without extensive advanced preparation. For people blowing off steam instead of starting a second imaginary career, this is preferable to calculating optimum tracking/range combos when fitting. There are a lot more people that game to blow off steam than to create a perfect stat sheet.
(5) Speed - WoW's combat goes faster and is more responsive. Forming a social group you can rely on to some extent takes hours, tops, rather than months. You don't have to build a new character/ability set every time you die, and standard sets can in fact be swapped in moments. Basically, if you've got other **** to do with your life WoW is probably the best choice.
I'm not saying Eve is a bad game, I'm just saying that it caters to a very narrow subset of gamer culture. WoW is the paintball of MMOs, Eve is its painting model trains. WoW is closer to being a sport, Eve is more of a hobby. ---

WoW is a 3D chatroom.
It's a social-centric MMO.
Quest with a level 80 and triple level up to 60. It's extremely new player friendly and, outside of twitch reaction, prediction-based PvP (which is horribly repetitive time after time) WoW doesn't have much to offer for long term challenge.
The bulk of people I know who keep playing it do so specifically because that's the game all of their online social contacts are playing. When they're playing another game, they start missing that social draw of WoW and almost always go back.
Eve caters to a niche audience int he MMO world. A higher learning curve, no quick leveling to max, non-turnkey PvP, PvP/PvE combination in faction warfare, and a much more complex and robust economy combined make Eve an MMO that, intentionally, isn't going to cater to the masses like WoW does.
WoW has the low skill, social MMO category filled and it's very focused on that. It fills that niche so well, that no other MMO stands a chance at knocking WoW off of that throne.
Eve fills it's niche just as well. While not having as many subscribers, it's still the primary "other MMO" out there....even after all of of these years.
No, Eve should not try to be like WoW.

Edited by: True Deciever on 25/01/2011 23:15:25 Funny thing alot of bittervets posting here (who supposedly left "that horrible game" years ago) are surprisingly well informed about WoW's recent game specifics.
WoW and EvE are vastly different by design. But I would like to state that in both cases low end playing is horrible. In EVE low enders are in hsec hamsterwheel, in WoW they are in chatroom.
Endgame however is where the differences kick in, you can buy your way in WoW top guild only by sweat blood and being fking good at game. Not just knowing how to play right but also being able to.
While in EVE relevant powers consist of average Joes who's quality differs from one alliance to another (slightly!) and really is vague. Only small weekend warrior corps such as SoT can maintain high member standarts.
In decent WoW guilds 1/25 player is a weak link and doom to whole raid and usually disposed on first sign. |

Edited by: Zephris on 25/01/2011 23:26:13 eve is played by people who think they are smarter then everyone else. wow is played by people who just want to have fun.
If you want to enjoy a casual game, wow is certainly the better choice. Certain professions in EVE can hardly be considered gaming (I am looking at you, starbase defense management.)
If you are looking for a way to relax after a hard day of work, Wow is better for it. if you have nothing better to do then to kill all of your time by playing a game, EVE is better.
