Don't. I am in the beta, and I have come to the realization that no matter how bad Eve gets, it is still better than anything else.
I mean this is just...... it's crap.
It is crap.
It is so easy that on my last "quest", (the saying of that word makes me vomit a little), I taped down my attack button and just ran around while playing Eve on the other machine. I wasn't even watching where I was going, just wall riding, and I completed the quest and ALL bonus quests.
It is Star Wars of Warcraft. Everyone has same skills, same armor, same look, same weapons.... and the people are idiots.
Makes me sad, I did so love my Star Wars

You do realize theres no real difference between "Quests" and "Missions" its just the wording. Either way what did you expect from a franchise thats been milked to hell and should have died years ago. Every time i see a new Star Wars game I cringe knowing that idiots will still cling to it.

I already believe that the Old republic wont have a player driven economy or a strong pvp focus, which is very unappealing and defiantly a WOW clone

That. Some time ago Bioware has promissed something diffrent than old tank/healer/dps schemes. Party of jedi knights, where everyone can heal himself, make decent amount of dps and tank mobs if needed? Sounded cool. But at some point they just abandoned all that and decided to copy WoW's tank/dps/healer class scheme. So much for creativity. Also.. I know it's still beta, etc etc.. but judging from all these youtube's vids, graphics look like sh*t. This is how ToR dies, before it could even start. Last playable SW game was KotOR 1(and it was awesome), next were just.. bad. ---- "Bo wszystkie terytoria należą do pięknego złego Należą do Szatana, pana świata tego" |

You mean, there were actually people who ever expected this Star Wars MMO to be anything other than a WoW-clone ?

Well I doubt many people were leaving EVE for that. At least, no one that I knew.
Perpetuum, on the other hand...

Perpetuum has a long ways to go before it can be considered a threat to Eve.

Perpetuum also really not all that impressive. I gave it a shot for awhile when the EVE rage was high, but I meh'd out of it a month or so ago.

Never said it was a threat, merely that I know (and am one of) many EVE players who left EVE to go play it. Take that however you will.

I didn't expect Star Wars Old Republic to be epic, but I expected at least good.
* Character creator is junk. I hate to say it, because I despise WiS and Incarna, but the EVE character creator blows it away.
* The style of the game is just a 2004 Theme Park style MMORPG. There is no free roam, you are pretty much playing KOTOR with a subscription. Read: Small rail run areas with a door in/out, a boss in the end, and a lot of npcs along the way.
I knew it was going to have some fluff, I just expected some substance as well.
* No customization of character * No permanent impact on the world ( houses, cities, guild halls ) * Drops destroy the player crafting economy
Basically, it is a game you play for the 2 months or so it takes to complete the story, then unsubscribe and return to EVE. I don't think I'll bother buying it on launch.

If by "many eve players" you mean about 100, then yes, "many eve players" have left for Perpetuum.
I was almost one, but I noticed that all the Eve players in Perpetuum were just really bittervet whiners who were a few steps from burning out on all games, I realized I didn't want to be in that crowd.
There are about 200 or 300 Eve players really playing on Perpetuum, max.

Perpetuum is pretty terrible. I tried it, sick of CCP, but it sucks. Guild Wars 2 though, check out you tube PvP vids and other aspects of the game, it looks really good. It is not space ships, but then again, you won't have to pay CCP to develop Dust and WoD while you play it.

Nice, way to break the NDA lol
well at least I let my displeasure be voiced in non NDA breaking ways: knights of the Old WoW lol anything non WoW Wont work
but the CEO of Bioware says it best:
Quote: Zeschuk said: "It [World of Warcraft] is a touchstone. It has established standards, it's established how you play an MMO. Every MMO that comes out, I play and look at it. And if they break any of the WoW rules, in my book that's pretty dumb."
Thats the guys in charge lol -------- CCP knows better than the players whats good for their game. SOE knew what was best for SWG too. Better than all those players that left too. This is your NGE/CU moment CCP. |

That is one of the saddest things I've ever read. Talk about one of the poorest attitudes a game developer could ever have. "If you don't copy someone else's work, you're dumb"
I'm not a creative person, but there are plenty of people who are. You need to be able to create your own formula for success to succeed. Riding someone else's coattails only gets you so far, and it rarely is ever as far as they got.
I'm not the happiest with CCP, but if Bioware can't do it, and AC is stagnating with Perp, looks like all that's left for me is THQ's Space Marine. FPS, here I come!

Yeah EVE is apparently doomed to failure not because of CCP being stupid or making bad decisions, but cause they didnt follow the WoW model.
Funnier still are the threads on the SWTOR forums where ppl DEFEND that statement. ------------------------------------ "You know, my foot oughta vandilize your ass" |

Dunno why the Tank/Healer/DPS role divisions are considered the "right" way to balance a multiplayer game. Makes for bloody boring playing after a while. Then again, anything more complicated would probably require too much thinking for the typical online gamer. Heaven forbid there be multiple good and quite different builds for a particular class.
Damn, now I miss tanking half a guild with my priest in Ragnarok Online.
Anyways, near as can tell, SWTOR is basically a WoW clone with a better storyline and aliens instead of elves and orcs, so not surprised.

They've spent sooo much money on development they need to be mainstream and attract a wow size subscriber base to make it profitable. I sort of hope it fails.
I assume perpeptuum is like historical Eve. Largely empty, but shows promise and the developers are focused on making it better. Whereas Eve is less empty but has developers distracted.

Edited by: Thamul on 31/08/2011 02:39:59 Bottom line is there are two styles of game.
Flash... and Hardcore.
I think that SW looks like it will be fluff and candy.
I prefer my killing bloody and without mercy.

Originally by: Thamul On the SWTOR forums, they have said "sandbox mentality MMORPG's were a fad" and "they proved to fail, so they are fading away."
To be fair, sandbox MMOs never really became as popular as WoW and other theme park MMOs have. There is a definite demand for sandbox games, and EVE is a testament to that. On the other hand, the market for theme-park MMOs with gated "communities" which separate PvP, PvE, and other types of gameplay is significantly bigger than the market for sandboxes. Yet there are not many good sandbox MMO games out there, so perhaps the issue is not on the demand side, but with the lack of supply.
