How come EvE can't have 200 BILLION Complete star systems to explore like this:

I know comparing this game to EvE is like comparing a stick figure to the Mona Lisa, but jeez if they can do it why cant WE?

I think it would be awesome to spend days and days if not weeks and weeks if not months without seeing anyone.


500k players you say? Divide that by 200 billion, then count how many jumps would we be apart from each other if every single one of us was alone in 1 system.

Sir and or Madam, I am the product of an American public school.

To do that they'd need a lot better server (they would need to render every system) and decrease the range between each system and/or increase jump range (11ly is like 10 systems)

That is none of our concern or problem.
Sorry.

We really need an international standard oh what that means, from the UK I now picture you wearing robes looking like something from harry potter and being instructed by your masters on how to shoot pheasants or row or something.

Thank you for properly calling them "star systems" and not "solar systems",
like even CCP is doing wrongly.

Not gonna get into an argument with you, I think you're rather funny on these here forums and what not but;

'Solar System' or 'Planetary System' is the correct terminology to use when the system has non-steller objects in orbit as well as Steller...

A 'Star System' or 'Steller System' has only steller orbitals. For example, a star orbiting another star...

Thanks for not dismissing me as a stupid troll.
Shows you can put thought into something.

I can agree on "planetary systems", but don't understand why it could be called "solar".

Sol is the name of our star and the solar system therefore is the system of Sol.

So why would other systems be ever called solar systems
when their stars definitely aren't Sol?

That doesn't make sense to me.

Yeah I never actually looked into it and just took it as it is,
simply for plain logical reasons.

Enlighten me! (wrecking shot hits pun doing c damage)

I once met a girl at a bar, who thought the Sun revolved around the Earth.
She said she knew, cos she could see the Sun passing by in the sky, everyday.
She was hot, but dangerously stupid and uneducated.

You aren't hot.

200 Billion systems = Imperial **** ton of renters.
