The more players in EvE the better for the future of the game, period. More players = more money = more content = more people to shoot in the face.
Come WoW refugees, come to the darkness. Come, see what online gaming REALLY is. |

And more wow players, more people to shoo tin the face.
Eve has room to devlope in ways to attract people without losing itself. The hot red head who will rip your balls off if you **** her off, can change her dress if she wishes.. or put on makeup.. but she will still rip your balls off.
as long as eve stays single shard, uninstanced, open world, and dark. she will be fine. you can dull some of the edges for noobs, and still keep her core Dude... I'm blonde right now. :p
Yeah. I'm the hot redhead. |

Entitlement.... lol
It's Elitism!

People who play EvE have probably played WoW and realized that the candy coated, pastel world of Azeroth is a joke. There is no actual conflict, no reason to even be there, really. The players in EvE make the game what it is.
We ARE the apex of online gaming; especially when compared against the competition. |

How stupid. ^_^
I had a co-worker tell me once, "We play EvE because it's better than any other game out there and by proxy, we're better as well."
I couldn't argue. |

The players in EvE make the game what it is. We ARE the apex of online gaming; especially when compared against the competition. That having been said, though, I welcome the WoW transplants as I stated above. Any chance to get someone into a real online game is a chance I'll take. I actually really liked WoW until the story had taken me everywhere and my friends told me to queue for dungeons until level 80. Then it got kind of boring and I lost interest. It's a pretty cool single player game though. Gigantic and colourful and pretty funny. It was also nice to run around those places that I knew from the RTS games I played in some distant past and could barely remember.
I played WoW from closed beta to the launch of Cataclysm. It really lost its luster at that point with me. It is the biggest online single player game I've ever played. You actually have to TRY to die in WoW. In EvE all you have to do is undock.
I enjoyed my time in WoW as well just as I enjoyed my Everquest time (9 years!!) but EvE is by far the best. |

Come WoW refugees, come to the darkness. Come, see what online gaming REALLY is. Except things seem to be going the other way. Back when I started playing I would log on and there would be mid to high 30k folk on during est and there was a constant drum beat from ccp about how they were going to set a record for concurrent log ins and you would see spikes into the 40s (high 40s?). Anyway these days it seems always to be in the 20s and often the low 20s. Sure CCP claimed that after "this is eve" there was a spike in new users, but IMO it doesnt seem to have made a difference long term and every one of these updates seems to be driving long term users away, with none of the hordes of mythical wow users coming into replace them.
Got any kind of proof of that? Any kind at all? Not just inconsequential reports of you seeing the pilot count on the launcher. It is really easy to say "OMG x game is dying!!!" but it's way harder to actually prove it.
CCP has the data and they have shared it. Guess what? It is the exact opposite of what you're saying. |

CCP have not shared the most most important piece of data which they used to for years now, and that is the actual number of Subscribers. People can make there own minds why that is but for me it is the simple fact that they have gone down instead of up. Its a great marketing tool to share with the world that your game is gaining subscribers but it is not so good to share if you are losing subscribers. Most publishers like to tell the world when they have x number of subscribers but go all quiet when that number starts to go down.. CCP are no exception to the rule.
Hold up. If you admit you don't even know the amount of subscribers how can you possibly say it's gone down? |

While nobody can say numbers are going down with certainly I'm sure everybody can grasp the logic of self fulfilling prophecy and as a result they can grasp the concept of CCP never wanting to show that "EvE is dying". Given that knowledge and CCP's employment reductions lately plus their push towards paid content we can also be certain that they have revenue issues. So I can't tell you with absolute certainty that subscriber numbers are going down but I can tell you that the logic exists to suggest that it is the cause of them not showing the subscriber numbers.
That is the antithesis to logic, that is speculation. |

I can't possibly offend due to being Amarrian. I'm way too hot to offend. |
