so many ways to answer this one and i suppose that in itself is my fave bit of EVE. the layers of complexity in this game and the interdepence of the playing community on each other is awesome. even tho sometimes its not always obvious.
if i had to single out one specific thing it would be the jove parts collection event. i was still in my npc corp at the time and a group of us got together and went into deepest darkest 0.4 to hunt blood raiders for the body parts. for me that was my real initiation into what eve is all about and that group still forms the nucleus for the corp i am now in over a year later.
for any new players coming into the game all i can say is stick with it guys. almost 2 years and counting for me now and i'm still learning new stuff.
it is a bit worrying tho when i have my skill training in eve mapped out for the next 6 weeks but in RL i'm not sure what i'm doing the day after tomorrow.

The few moments of absolute adrenalin rush you get in a big fleet battle.... It's a high you won't get anywhere else. I've been playing for over 6 months, and I still have to have a cup of tea and mop my brow after a big battle or a tense one-on-one. LOVE IT!
EVE is the best online experience I've ever had, and every day she reminds me why I love her so much.

Everything you do in EVE means something and you can actually make a difference in the game world.
I like the Factions and how you can get good and bad reputations.
I like how you can see players warping far far away as little streaks across the sky.
And the stars in the distance blinking like real stars do.
Having all the players on one server together
The Website and the stories on it.
The detailed story of EVE is a good one you can really get into.
Prices are set by players.
The ships are detailed and fun to ride.
The mature environment and complexity.
I like turning the roids into beautiful parts on ships that will travel the universe.
Being able to build floating cities with groups of other players and run them.

My shaking hands after a battle. Trying to calm down. Having fleetmates in a LAN with me, and the serious "OMGWTFDidyouSEEthatHEwasAndthenIscrambledandOMGhehadNOSandmyCAPwas toastTHENhehadDronesbuthedroppedToStructureandIdidTooandIwasScreamingattheMonitorandBOOMBIATCH!!!"
Even after so many many fights, I can feel my heart pounding for 5 min after a fight. NO game other than EVE can do this.

I love the way it takes you from huge highs to big lows in the blink of an eye.
Agreed.
I remember when I first got ganked in my hauler. Everything I owned went up in smoke. I couldn't believe it. I went crazy and looked for a 'load' button. I begged the pirates for my loot back. I had never been so angry. The only posession I had was my Tristan back in Oursulaert. I had lost everything, and there was nothing I could do about it. Life was unfair.
This experience early on in my EVE career has such a huge impact on me. Afterwards, when I had calmed down I realised that this was the only game I had ever played that had had such a huge emotional effect on me.
Now I actively look forward to fitting my ship, taking it into combat, risking everything and putting it all on the line. Sure you lose sometimes, but when you win, the satisfaction is unbeatable.
That's what I love about EVE. It's playing for keeps. |

The adrenaline rush of going into combat knowing a mistake could actually cost you more than just waiting 30 seconds to respawn.

Eve is the only game I've played to date that will not bore me out of playing it the next day.

"As I tell a lot of people who I show the game, there's more care and attention to detail that went into the jettison cans in EVE than other games have in entire environments."
That's because for many EVE players that jettisoned can is *all* they see for nearly entire game life... -.o

- Da Shaky hands! - ...as Graelyn said it (with or without punctuation)
- That dieing actually hurts, not like, "Ooh, I died, better start runnin after my body" )
- The scale of the game... just one real server, its freaking huge!
- The Detail. Enough said.
- The balance. No matter what the whiners say, the races are very well balanced, while the game is still free to develop further.
- The DEVs. Actually asking what the community wants. *wipes brown off nose*
- NO XP GRINDING!!! I have been in Iraq for 4 months, and can't tell you how much I love that I'm not 4 months behind my friends in combat abilities because I couldn't play to grind. Also, that I can PLAY the game, rather than working toward a time when i can actually have some fun.

The fact that eve is mean and dirty and unfair and that there is ussually sweet **** all you can do about it :)
I like eve cause although set in a different environment, its about as close as any game gets to real life, only here the consequences of actions arn't real.

I had no idea what you were talking about until I did a google search.
All their base belongs to EVE.
So which game is it that also claims the record?

Have you ever noticed that there are more ways to describe evil, unpleasant, or just plain bad things than wholesome, nice things? More ways of describing pain, torment, loss, anguish and despair? It's just human nature to dwell on the negative. We have evolved to ***** and moan our way from cradle to the grave and even then, some people come back to keep on with the *****ing and moaning (assuming you believe in ghosts)
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at stars.

It is easier to point out, in detail, a few flaws rather than finding a few good things about eve, as it is an all out awesome experience with like 250 things that are top notch.

Yeah, its just people's inability to be constructive, and a natural tendency to whine.
If the bad ever did outweigh the good, we would quit playing. simple.

-Skill point system. Passive XP gains ftw.
-Purty Purty Graphics.
-Purty Purty Music. RealX is a god.
-Actually being able to have an effect on the game world is awesome.
and... Listening to someone play Kenny Loggins over Ventrilo as our gang warps into a blob of enemies.

More people complain rather than praise its a sad sign of the times I guess.
Personally my favourite bits.
- Formation Warp screenshots :) (Currently my wallpaper is one, and I am thinking of getting one printed on canvas)
- The sheer "OMGWTFPIRATES!!! RUN!!! RUN LIKE ****!" feeling when you are part of a mining op in someone elses back yard :D
- The community, a huge number of websites and other things have all built up around this game. I love it!
But yeah.. Formation Warp screenshots are the bomb :)

The fact that the game provides the framework but the players create the content.
The simple but effective in game communications system, chat is a nightmare in many other games.
PvP.

Non-consentual pvp, even in empire space via 1-sided corp wars, awesome.
Busy server, not sure if 1 server in and of itself is a good thing, but the fact that that server is busy, certainly is.

Wish, before it got cancelled.
Dark and Light is comming up and features the same kind of world as EVE, be it in a fantasy setting.
