Sri Nova Sebiestor Tribe Minmatar Republic 127	Posted - 2013.07.19 07:02:00 - [61] - Quote Obviously your not following the gaming the industry. Wow answered the desire for a fantasy based mmo . it answered it so well, that there is very lil room left for competing projects. Those that are trying to compete with wow have all had to radically change their business strategy or attack the model from another angle because the player base is not there. Copy catting or mimicking features from wow is not going to increase the subscriber base. Apparently what gamers wants is digital items to spend their money on . taking a look at kick starters and star citizen and shroud of the avatar and others . its clear that players wants digital goods. another example is Activisions Sky Lander and soon to be released Disney Infinity . Players want personalized content, they want in game avatars and objects that they can own ( i find this idea bizarre but it obvious that people will pay good money for digital items ) so the way forward for eve is not in adding on a fantasy based gimmick . the way forward for eve will be through the creation of digital content that the players can not live with out . this will be ship skins and other items that personalize eve for players, corporations , and alliances. ccp then can expand these digital offerings into possible licenses that can be purchased for aur, and used to create cosmetically varied ships (they are no better than their tech 1 counter parts they are just a different model ) this will increase revenue . increasing the player base is a bit more tricky but they already outlined the prototype . walking in derelicts ala fps based exploration in the eve universe . this is the way forward for eve , create a ton of content that has players exploring and fighting their way through various forms of space stations, abandoned star ships, and various wrecked structures and maybe even some of those brothels. the second player increase will be through faction war fare and missions that require fps combat for point of control of strategic stations placed through out new eden . then expand this into 0.0 sov system. The point being is add some variety to eves play style. (well with in the lore and flavor of eve) it would be a mix of the current eve we know and love, with some new fps aspects that will be interesting worthwhile to invest time in . and another increase would be from the participation of the player base in the construct of the items of eve, ala expanding the crafting system and allowing for player created items that will add flavor and variety to the eve markets for various in game content . clothes guns ships etc... Regardless of what ccp does wowification is not the answer to many games have tried to copy or improve on the wow formula . Many have failed while others struggle to stay above water in this crowded mmo market.

Haas Tabris Ice Fire Warriors Late Night Alliance 33	Posted - 2013.07.20 03:50:00 - [67] - Quote Epic post dude, pure awesomeness. My fav part was the hobbit being a lord of the rings sequel, but hey, whatever 'cause they're both based on wow anyways. I will remember that forever. Thank you. More seriously tho, you kinda have a point. My warrior was much more challenging to fly than any of my eve ships. Sad but true. But that was vanilla. Maybe they've fixed that now.
Shedemei Silfar Kid's Logistics Inc 74	Posted - 2013.07.20 03:50:00 - [68] - Quote Quote: This could totally revivisect Eve Online! New faction avatars, skills and ships would enable the devs to expand their repertoire and new players would come flooding in, vets would get whole new decade of gameplay out of it, and it might even prove the way for vampire's from the masquerade to one day enter New Eden. he said revivisect....... I was already laughing but that made me snort beer out through my nose.... my poor keyboard.

Myfanwy Heimdal Heimdal Freight and Manufacture Inc 295	Posted - 2013.07.21 08:28:00 - [77] - Quote You trek across the frozen wastes and head towards the fabled city of KnobbleThorn. Your faction with the guards of KnobbleThorn allow you access under the mighty wooden gates glistening with perma-frost. You dismount off your Battle Badger and cross the zone line... Moment later you appear in a majestic hall, behind you snow falls over the threshold but you're looking around at the incredible architecture. Would would have built an entrance chamber so high. After tying up the Battle Badger you turn towards the vast distance to the far corner towards the towering archway into the main corridors of KnobbleThorn itself. Leaving your beast in the care of the Janitors you set off towards the archway. It's locked.

BiscuitMonsterr University of Caille Gallente Federation 11	Posted - 2013.07.21 11:27:00 - [79] - Quote Lephia DeGrande wrote: It would be still Fantasy, I HATE FANTASY! Sci-Fi FTW!! But fantasy is really just sci-fi only set in the past, isn't it? Look at Star War's (a famous old science fiction movie from the 60s). In that, the hero lives on a farm, and he has to go on a quest to rescue a princess from a sort of castle. Only the castle is in space. But he does meet a kind of Gamdarlf character who teaches him magic, called Old Ben Kobi, except its called the Force and its explained in the remake of 2002 that its actually a technology called Mitochondria. But anyway, sci-fi was called fantasy before the age of space, and the famous scifi author Arthur G Clarke once said 'one mans magic is another mans technology', so whose to say the two can't live in peace together in New Eden. Maybe CCP could introduct some kind of special power that would work like Magic but be powered by power crystals or something. Remember, we can't call it magic anyway because Gary Gygax has the trademark for that I think. But we can change the spelling a bit. Magyk, maybe. Or something gormpletely different, like 'star-voodoo' or 'cosmauturgy' or similar. The monstroids voodoo levels would be low of course, but the Gelfs would have advantage's here.

Sci-Fi is fantasy in space. If you wanted a space sim that truly mimicked science you'd be bored to death. The space you'll even see isn't beautiful Hubble false color images, it's a pretty dull gray world (as the only light humans can see is the visible light spectrum -- and the most beautiful false colors are beyond what our eyes can actually see...like the Oxygen III and Hydrogen-Alpha photo filters can highlight). And in space fighting Buck Rogers style would be a worthless adventure. Waste of resources for "fun" when, for example, for NASA every ounce of material moved is worth $$$$$$...every ounce...and you have to carry it, as resources don't just magically appear.

Of course, EVE doesn't use any Hubble false-colour images to begin with. Classic example of Tippia, again, not understanding what she's talking about. Any two-bit amateur astronomer can see the backdrop images in EvE are indeed inspired by the Hubble false-color images. Can see the M16 Eagle nebula; can see the Hydra nebula; can see the Omega nebula. How do you know? Because the colors used by NASA doesn't represent the colors as they're even seen. It's like a trademark even. In the early days of astrophotography photo filters did have a color to them (Hydrogen-Alpha and it's deep red tone is a classic example, as the red spectrum the human eye can actually see -- why you can see the reddish tone of Omega and Eagle nebulas with the naked eye [but not the Oxygen III blue/green that NASA used]). Oxygen III highlights a gray bandwidth to human eyes -- we don't see the pretty blues that NASA normally uses to represent that color in their Hubble photographs. But in EvE you will see those pretty blue Oxygen III highlights, just like in the Hubble photographs! That color doesn't exist in reality, it's Photoshopped in.

Obviously Buck Rogers is too old fashioned for the likes of Eve, I dont think we want those 70s fashions and all that space disco stuff, but they had space princesses I think. By the way, I was researching Wow and I realised they already had spaceships in it with the race with the goatlegs and horns. So there is a percodent for a space-fantasy combo.

Oh sorry, you were going off on some irrelevant and tangential strawman? I didn't mean to interrupt you or ruin your point with factsGÇª GÇªbut it kind of just happened anyway. Tippia, I've been an amateur astronomer for decades now, and before CCD astrophotography (the bad old days of gas-hyping film). Space does not have it's own "colours" (hmmm) beyond what the human eye can see (and since the universe as we define it is by a human perspective, the universe will be seen from a human POV). The hocus pocus of the base color of the universe was for show, we couldn't even see it naturally that way. Any other color representation is false-colored because humans can't tell the difference -- and photo filters are even needed to tease out the details (why the Hubble images used false colors anyway). Oxygen III is a classic filter to do just that, especially in nebulas with a lot of dust and radiation (like the M16 pillars, it would be washed out by the background radiation otherwise). It's no different than in Photoshop, when doing color separation in CYMK / RGB or LAB formats. Astrophotography filters operate much the same, and when each bandwidth is separated it can be given it's own color. Then, like in Photoshop, the color separated images are recombined into a false-color representation. It looks very pretty. But it's not real. It's false-color. Naturally, celestials in space is mostly seen by humans as gray, with some white light highlights (Orion nebula is a classic example of a nebulae that can be seen and appreciated without any photo filters). Nebulas like the classic Hubble Eagle nebula is seen in red light by the eye naturally, and it's contrast is brought out nicely by the hydrogen-alpha color filter (and why the M16 photos before Hubble was soooo red!). There's no blue/green there (typical false-color for Oxygen III in NASA Hubble photos). Enjoy the fantasy and what fantasy offers, as science is harsher than space itself!
