The EVE engine is in the process of being upgraded, just wait and see what CCP will do to it, if it is anything like they did with the original engine these kinds of graphics will what we will see in EVE.
The only difference is that in EVE you will actualy have great game play and a big community of players.

This is taken from there FAQ Some jumpgates will be available between the main trading routes. However, all the ships can be equiped with an hyper-propulsion system. You can choose your destination on the galaxy map and jump there (providing you have the resources). Jumping will not be instantaneous. It will be very fast to jump to a local system, but jumping to the other side of the galaxy will take from minutes to hours (in real time).Nice seamles travel no jumpgates actuall nav computers no more gate campers and ganksquads. FTW CCp better shape up new games are coming out :):)

Their dev plans say the first playable version will be in 1 to 2 years (at best). First playable sounds like an early alpha to me.... so what 3-4 years before they game ships. Yeah, I don't think ccp has to worry too much.
It sounds neat, but anybody can write down a cool list of dream features, implementing them for 100k players to enjoy is totally different.
good luck

apparently eve first came into startup mode in 1997 or 1998 it took them 5 years to get it live and another 3 years now to really mushroom so a 10 year dev cycle on this unless u have bucketloads of money to throw at it is reasonable.
Looks promising but existing games have an edge

I dont know.... that game seems to be a better space simulator, but it says nothing about the economy, pvp system etc. There is no way this even comes close to eve...maybe after 10 years.

If you look closely at the website it's all done by 1 guy, so it's never going to progress from a graphics demo to an actual product. But it's a nice demo, and CCP could do worse than hire him.

Those guys have taken many ideas from EvE and teh duture development of EvE and added many by their own.
As a Sci-Fi fam I think it is very good that there will be an EvE concurrent.
And the idea to start one a fresh new world let me think of trying this game out at release.
I just downloades the Video where a developers is flyin over a planet and leaves to space.
This was really stunning.
I will keep an eye on this game.

It is inevitable that others will jump on the EVE-online bandwaggon. Everything succesful will be copied, and every copy will have the one or other feature the original doesn't have. With the recent launch of EVE in China CCP jumped into the big league of MMOGs, it in not a small niche provider anymore. This will attract even more copycats, and with copycats I mean companies like EA or SOE, and little start-ups like that the OP pointed to, nobody knows yet.
UO was killed by EQ, EQ was killed by WoW, who knows what will kill WoW. The reason why they have been killed, was that they did not adapt. The games weren't evolutionized in depths, but only expanded in width. New games brought new ideas, which attracted the slowly getting boared audience from the existing MMOGs.
That is the challenge for CCP. Just adding blood lines, skills, ships, modules or regions will make the EVE universe broader, but would not add depth, would not fire up the curiosity of the existing player base, would not offer something nouvelle. Creating microgames within the framework of the existing game setup will only help so much.
EVE has the potential. Introduce real avatars and ship crews, let people walk around in ships or stations, and make planetside game - and battle - reality. That would be two or three completely new games, which would make EVE a true virtual world, would give the existing player base enough fresh experience to last for years, and would multiply the potential subscribers base with multiplying to address different wishes for an Sci-Fi based MMOG.
If CCP does not do that, others will do. Not next year, and not in three years, but in five or ten. It is on CCP whether they would be predator then, or prey.

Old, and will most likely suck.
They're trying to copy/paste EVE-online into their own game... and its not going to work. We're going to laugh.

Why do some of you have to knock the project down? Eve ftw, but you gotta have a heart too.
To me, the biggest concern about this project is that it is seemingly designed by a programmer. I know from experience that programmers are not designers, all they think about is technology and stuff that sounds cool (Actual example: "Hey all! I've been working on a particle system for our game, check it out!" -"What? Well, I thought you were working on something that is of higher priority, like making the character shoot. You know, stuff that the player is supposed to do").
On the site, they talk of billions of planets and moons. Does this equate to a fun game? I'd say it most likely doesn't. Exactly how does combat work? All they've said is "it is real time and you steer the game like a flight simulator" and "the game uses newtonian physics". Basically, they have an engine that can do a few cool gimicks, an unrealistic high concept list of features and NO GAME DESIGN at all.
I welcome this potential game with all my heart, but I doubt they will accomplish anything more than a tech demo in the end anyhow. Do they even have a plan how to fund this MMO? Do they have a potential customer base? Do they even have a design bible or anything remotely designer'ish?
Griefing is to ruin a friendly game, which Eve is not. |

So you say. All we say is that what was presented to us looks crap.
Knocking down the project has nothing to do with it. Not only does it look horrible, but its blatantly a rip off.
Bed room programming has been dead for years.

I'd rather take projects like this serious. Lot's of such projects will fail, until one will succeed. Actually it is not only good but necessary that things like these happen. Being crap or being genious, it presents new ideas and demonstrates increasing interest of probably influencing parties into Sci-Fi MMOG. Edison made thousands of bulbs until one worked. Poeple will try thousands of approaches until one will work.
The thing is, that CCP could be the people inventing the next Sci-Fi light bulb. They just need to want to. And I do not know whether they really want to do that, or rather stick to improve the invention they already made.

Which parts are ripped off? It is a space MMO with spaceships and stations? Oh yeah, total rip off, Eve is the only space game in the world...
I see no evidence of a downright rip off. Some people in this thread are just being defensive about their preciousssss.

Infinity reminds me more at Elite and Frontier: Elite 2 than at e-o..
Tbh, i always dreamed of an elite MMO 13 years ago with thousands of planets (on which you can land), system wide asteroid belts and players which you can meet there.

I can't see anything in there that is a rip-off of EVE or any other game I've seen.
Since I don't know the details of the game, all I'll say is that's one hell of a space simulator.

Thats from the top of my head after 30 seconds of browsing.
Also, the ships themselves loks incredible crap. I dunno why they have been made in a 3d renderer because it would have looked better if it had been made in illustrator lol.

I hope they have success. I am following the project for quite a while.
If they don't break more stuff more faster than ccp, their game will be a huge step forward.

Well after the "sneak peak" we had Eve-online will lose alot of players to these guys.
But in case they suck, anyone know how to raise standings with concord?
This is as bad as it can get, but don't bet on it. |
