I'll give you 4 reasons we have not had development of new space:
1) Post-Incarna Debacle layoff of 20% staff
2) World of Darkness
3) Dust 514
4) Eve: Valkyrie
That's it really.
And also it's why POS mechanics are still so horrific.

You sir could not be more correct. Eve Online, the CCP milk farm. Eat that hay!
Yup. A lot of what they have done is fantastic of course, but honestly, I've been feeling the game has been ignored for quite awhile. Sure, Jump Animation is cool, but it has nothing to do with gameplay.
And just making radical changes to a mechanic (Exploration) and calling it a full blown Expansion is as absurd an Incarna's Door. I'm shocked there was no rebellion tbh.
That's not an Expansion. It's an Alteration.
edit: Same with the Null Ore changes. It's just an Alteration. What was honestly and truly new in Odyssey ?
Nothing. |

this is not a good thing...
Wrong.
Gangs love long drunken lulz roams. Nobody can hide.
And as long as CCP doesn't screw up, that space should eventually fill up itself. |

Because of this new process, the crazy far-future ideas on space colonisation and building your own stargates presented in yesterday's EVE keynote are more likely to actually make it to the live game than previous big visionary ideas. They're part of the five-year vision that the entire EVE development staff is getting behind, so it should be only a matter of time before true space colonisation becomes a reality. When it does, we'll be able to build stargates aiming into the unknown and settle completely new solar systems.
We know, and that's gonna be great...........................if you have the right amount of ISK.

Yes, I wanted to explore but in EVE its just solar system after another without cool planets to land or ruins to find. Just copy paste complexes with same kind of enemy 24/7. So if you wish to add 10.000 new systems. What would you like to do in them? Besides just sitting alone... in space... rolling thumbs.
They are exaggerating about the 10,000 imho.
2-3,000 should be about right. Caldari is indeed unbelievably crowded. That's why industrialists tend to avoid it. Not enough resources to go around properly. Minmatar is pretty much there as well.
edit: Also, the Khanid and Derelik regions were added as new extra space in 2006 I believe it was, so it does have precedent. |

The problem with making a 'larger' game world is that it will eventually become cumbersome; players will get separated by larger and larger distances, and most of it will be wasted space.
Nope.
EVE players have a magnetic 'habit' of finding each other and causing massively destructive chaos. |

 What game are you playing ?
There are ~5200 systems in EVE as Known Space.
And with 450,000 subscribers, an equal distribution would be almost 86 players per system.
Even with the login max of ~55,000 at a given peak time that's 10 players per system.

Stupid ******* containers popping out of the god damn ******* wrecks. Who thought of that bullshit? **** **** **** exploration. Sir, you are being too kind about the new exploration introduced in the last 'expansion'. One can only hope the person who came up with it has been locked behind a station door (in null-sec) and told that they can only come out when Walking in Stations is released in an acceptable form. Grab a can if you can. Bah!

That's actually happened right after downtime a few times. In fact. It happens to someone every single frikkin' day.

I don't think you understood him. He said all subscribers in one system without warp drive. Each system is several AU long in every direction. So it would take hundreds of years before anyone meets anyone. Obviously warp speed changes that. But the problems is not the size of the universe (and the current EVE universe is insanely big). The problem is how empty it is.
Thread itself has gotten confused. |
