Secondly, if you find that concept hard to deal with, then i suspect Eve really isn't the game for you.

Here's Altos' link. Removed
From reading that it seems like the guy played it for about a day or so, encountered a few bugs and left.
Quote: It has no story line.
That makes me wonder if he played at all.

Well, he's right about one thing - the GMs are utterly crap at returning ships lost to bugs. I have lost a half dozen that weren't returned because they "couldn't prove a client bug caused it", to lagspikes, client freezes and other atrocities beyond my control...
Well, I guess you can't ask for everything to be perfect.

I disagree with his story..me must have hit a day right after a patch or somethink..I do know eve have bugs..
but I personal dont have any problems with bugs in this game compared to othergame..the only think I agree on with him is that there are to many "extended downtimes" in this game.
but I quess the devs must have there reason for it :)

For the most part what he said was true. Cept what game has Eve-Onlines graphics, feeling and ect. That's what really keeps me here. The lag is driving me nuts and so are the bugs. But damn if Eve-Onlines 3D Game Engine isn't the best out there. Good graphical games blow my mind! It has the potential to be the best mmo out there. So I give it time. Some people just want the bestbest. I kinda like it that way. Keeps less people from joining and a tight eve community where people know my name. Hate to see it flooded like EQ or WoW.

What a whiner.. "Boho I lost my ship, I'm quitting" O/c bugs are annoying, but then again, it's the same for everyone, and EVE needs the isk sink anyway;) I've lost bs' to bugs, but I don't mind. I tell myself "**** happens" and move on. This game is still great! |

Edited by: Aodha Khan on 25/04/2005 07:00:06 Yes, there are bugs/lag. Guess what? So do all the other MMORPG's.
I recently tried Everquest II. Froze 4 times in 2 days. Severe lag at times. I only played about 10 hours in total.
I never experienced it this bad in Eve. (perhaps I'm lucky that way?)
So in war, the way is to avoid what is strong and to strike at what is weak. |

hmm interesting....maybe its your guys comps, ive played for almost 2 years with a couple month down time due to rl stuff and not once have I ever lost a ship to a bug, I have been stuck at a few gates but nothing that reloging didnt fix. Very small amounts of lag, any large amount of lag would be due to being the a rediculusly overpopulated system (125+ ppl) which is understandable. If your having all these issues it might be your comp...you cant expect a game like this to run great on a sub par comp with 56k internet connection, and if your comp is not the issue then you should relocate to another part of the galaxy/try re installing. This is a MMORPG with 10k+ppl on the busy nights in an unsharded world with thousands of things happening at any moment...what do you ppl want? there are gonna be issuse/unexpected downtimes, that is the nature of the game. If you cant handle it then you should go play somthing else.

Seems the original article's points can be raised about almost any MMOG. Not just EVE.
Matrix Online: Game engine was bugged and lagged to hell during beta, couldn't take more than 8 steps before wanting to slash my wrists with frustration. When it wasn't lagged it seemed that there was actually a incredibly small game area.
Ultime Online: One of the grand daddies of MMOG's. Poor tech support for anyone who wasn't living in the US. Unfixed exploits and GM's who didn't care about them. A ton of 'extras' which you had to pay for on top of the $15/m subscription fee. Two cancelled sequels, cleverly designed to keep on the original player base.
WoW: I haven't played this game, but I hear it is rife with unexpected downtime, expolits, and griefers.
So, going on one review on how terrible Eve is compared to the rest of the pack is quite a weak argument. Maybe you should play with this instead?

If you think you can do a better job, go find yourself a datacentre to host a box, get a copy of Visual Studio, and STFU.

hahahahhaa oh man goes on about extended downtime etc. WoW about every other time i go to log in while im taking a break from eve, my server is down, or lagged to crap. This guy is a total idiot. In the end however, EVE takes a lot more thought than any other MMO out there and most people are too lazy, they like the boring hack and slash level grind that takes utterly no thought.

Eh?
Quote: It's been my experience that AT LEAST once every couple weeks CCP is scheduling "extended downtime" to fix their infrastructure.
Yes, that's called patch-day. They do it to add lots of stuff to the game, or if you want to put it negatively, fix the infrastructure.

Edited by: Raem Civrie on 25/04/2005 09:12:12 I currently play both WoW and EVE... only...
In WoW, if I enter certain areas (Ratchet in The Barrens, a certain house in Darkshire, Duskwood), my router enters an infinite loop that consumes it's meager CPU power and ultimately causes a time out in my connection, requiring a restart (i.e. plug the power cord in/out).
Also, if I kill things in certain areas (behind Menethil Harbor, required for Morbent Fel mission in Duskwood), the game has a ~35% chance of freezing EVERY TIME I KILL SOMETHING.
GM's take around 2 days to answer tickers on servers with light bug loads, and rarely help you. My friend experienced a bug with the talent system that required him to flush all his talents (1 gold, right there). He got his 1g back, but when he asked what he was supposed to do if he ever wanted to do it later on (which would cost 10g), he got a "Well, you're screwed" response.
Oh, and lag traps kill people in WoW too.
[Edit] And don't get me started on loot lag, a bug that's been in the damn game since early beta...
