I don't think they can really give us that assurance. You see, when a Sony representative walks into your office and gives you what amounts to a really, REALLY big bag of money, it's hard to say no.
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to see EVE in the hands of those butchers at SOE any more than anyone else, but CCP is a business. I'm sure if the price were right, they wouldn't hesitate to sell, especially if CCP is publically traded (and I don't know that it is).

Mmmm, SOE or NCSoft? imagine EVE like Lineage 2... extremely unbalanced PVP, spending around 3 years to build a Battleship, being bad (pirating) punished, magic hangars...
I dont know what is worst...
lol... it would require 100 npc kills to get a skill from level 1 to 2. This number quadruples for each successive level.
Stations can be conquered every 2 weeks during a specific 2 hour period only.
Mineral costs and build times for everything are multiplied by 10.
You can't change what skill you're learning until you go on a skill-change quest, which involves about 8 hours of travel and 3 hours of npc killing.
PvP involves standing around with your enemies and waiting for someone to strike, and become pvp flagged.

What if this is an experiment!
What if we are actually playing in SOE and they have not changed the game yet to what "EVE " will really be.

Does it matter why, its when is more crucial!

You would hear no talk of server upgrades nor optimizations. It would be the total elimination of several skils and shiptypes as the plan to reduce lag. Of course, the lag would not be fixed, yet they would still keep the changes.

Oh, and they would pull half the hardware, yet still increase subscription rates "to pay for increased maintainance".

General Letter from SOE to EVE players:
"Dear players, to improve efficiency we will be sharding the server as follows:
All Calderi players will now be on Merchant Server
All Amarr players will be on the Cathedral Server
All Minmatar players will be on the Rebel Server
All Gallente players will be on Hedonist Server
We understand some of you will be very upset by these changes, especially those of you engaged in Minmatar/Amarr and Gallente/Calderi warfare, however this is really for the best. There will still be some nice npc's for you to shoot.
Furthermore, its come to our attention that there is large amounts of griefing occuring in the area known as "zero-zero". We believe that such unwarranted combat is not in the spirit of fun we hope to instill in this game. Therefore, the following "zero-zero" regions will be off-limits to pvp combat: any ships lost in Pure Blind, Stain, Syndicate, Curse, Catch and Providence may be petitioned and the attackers will be suspended.
We hope such fair and reasonable boundaries will ensure that all of our players will have as much fun as possible in this great little world. That's we're dividing into four ever greater, littler worlds.
Yours,
President SOE
PS: Every other great idea in this thread? Yeah, we're stealing 'em."
------
I generally assume the following:
1. 95% of Empire Carebears don't get 0.0 PVPers.
2. 95% of 0.0 PVPers don't get Empire Carebears.
3. 100% of Ore Thieves steal just to upset the Miners. |

An Eve on SOE would be a lot like Earth and Beyond and we all know where that game went.

You forgot...
Each update would install a new version of a rootkit that would tell SOE how many CDs you have ripped, what e-books you have, whether you have a P2P file-sharing app or a video capture device...
...and of course if you play WoW, the SOE rootkit would try to pwn Blizzard.

Hey, it could be worse. Square-Enix could buy EVE.
Any company that can ruin Final Fantasy AND Dragon Warrior is some serious competition for SOE for the title of "biggest suck ever".

If anybody is wondering, Sony has been caught red handed putting viruses on peoples machines. Maybe Congress should stop focusing on just giving the companies rights and tell them to also stop ******* spying on everyone like they are some kind of Vigilanty army.

Basically, I use iTunes and Netflix hence why should my 'phone lines be tapped' with no proof I am stealing espically since they are not the ******* police. Not to mention, how many mysterious blue screens is this responiable for?

The funny thing is their own rootkit can be used to circumvent their own copy protection schemes. It can also be used to beat WoW's Warden.

I played Star Wars Galaxies for nearly 2 years, its sad to say, but everything the OP stated would be true. One thing he should have added, that happened recently with SWG should be: Release an expansion, then the next day make an announcement that the way we have combat is completely changed, and have reduced the professions to 2, making it to where console gamers can play, when the game will be available to them within the coming months.
SOE is going to be famous for this bait and switch tactic that they used to sucker people into buying the game. For them to have a new "enhanced" combat upgrade took anywhere from 6 months to a year to achieve, without one word to its customers until 1 day after the expansion was released. I will never go back to SOE ever again after this incident. I feel scammed!!!!

It would probably scare away anyone who hasn't played quake 1 at it's release.
