Their looking a bit dated. Don't get me wrong their nice and all but their a few years old now and showing their grey hairs.
Do do the devs intend of a rewrite or upgrade of the graphics engine of EVE?
Check screenshots of this game. Their UI is crap but their graphics are excellent. Linkage

Thing is i like to run multiple accounts from one machine, id imagine im not alone in that.
As i understand it, X3 barely runs on one machine for most people.
Most definately not a fan here, eve doesn't look that bad, it's not as spiffy as X3, or 2 for that matter, but it's allright. ----------- When they asked me if i knew you, id smile and say you were a friend of mine.

Belive me when i tell you, X3 is a superd game!... But the graphics are a bit future dated, my friend played X3 and compared it with eve. X3 would be the GAME of the year in about 3 years time... the graphics in X3 are not for the standard todays computer... eve is on the edge of ok/old but i think they should hold out untill there is hardware out there that can support what is being relesed today.
Valve have relesed a Demo to there new graphics code over steam and i have a 6800 128mb and well at medium i got anbout 12-15 FPS... havent tryed X3 yet and well from what i heard im not going to try eather.
Eve are working on a new graphics engin i belive but well, if they relese it, it'll be like it was on relese "why cant i play eve - i get a black screen when i load the splash screen", "Thats because your GFX card cant handle eve. sorry"
Kep up the great work CCP its doing great, just my advise about the new graphics, make sure most people can run it... i still know a few running it with a Geforce 4 :( ----------------------------------

The graphics are fine. The only things we need are reskins of the badly-skinned ships, like, uh...
THE APOCALPYSE.
Yeah, that and reskins of the other ships that have holes in their geometry or the like and it would be fine. - Proud member of the [23].

Edited by: Januk on 03/11/2005 22:21:52 the ship models are okay in high res... but everything else such as planets, moons, etc looks very 2d and could use some updates.
each solar systems looks so empty to me too.
oh.. and i wish we could see our ships landing like in the X3 trailer...
speaking of x3.. what kind of game is it? like Freespace?

the fact that you can land on a terrain looks sweet to me... gonna try out X3 for sure. I think my new laptop would cut it.

I think EVE's graphics look better than the linked screenies. Sure, EVE's planets need up-sizing, and possibly re-texturing, as do moons. Stations could use a facelift, as could some ships (Apoc, Exequeror, Omen, few others). Space backdrops, effects and a lot of ships look way better than what is linked, although to be fair, I've not seen X3 im motion. ---:::---

Well, the X-series was always famous for next-gen graphics (and sluggish control/interface) DonŠt know the latest part, but i just hope they did overhaul the controls and management systems.
The game itself is like a crossover from freespace with elite / eve, its singleplayer only as fas as i know, and you can practically do all you want, building stations in space, set up trade routes, fight in fast small ships or even heavy battlecruiser etc etc...
IŠm not crazy, i just have another consciousness in my mind! |

tbh those graphics you linked don't look that hot. Maybe it's just me but some of those textures look like they spent all of 5 minutes on them.

My statement has nothing to do with spending money and everything to do with a game that has zero depth and replay value behind the pretty pictures. |

I dunno, man. I've flown my Apoc to where it was literally touching the surface of a planet at its pole. My ship looked much too big compared to the planet. That was a LONG time ago, but I actually still have the screenshot. Obviously that's a VERY old shot, but the size of the Apoc/planet hasn't changed since then. Heh, gotta love that super-low resolution on the planet.  ---
