Originally by: Mtthias Clemi Edited by: Mtthias Clemi on 29/12/2006 16:24:46 EVE deserves all o those in my opinion, Ive played WoW, Galaxies, Planetside, MU and Guild Wars and EVE beats all of them hands down, on EVERY level, no competition.... i think on some level the fun factor in PVE in eve lies with the fact that its more fun to watch 50 Spaceships of different sizes fire all they have at you, while you take them out with your extrmely cool weapons.. then it is to watch a catrooney elf/man/drawf/orc/undead person use the same attack repeatedly on the stupidest enemies youve ever seen... 
just my opinion
and as usual DS is right.. and your all wrong 
Sometimes I love having to put my avatar's life in the hands of a well working group.
In EVE you don't even have the choice.
If brute force doesn't yield a result, you're not applying enough is the credo for PvE.
(And if you actually bring logistics, you better be in the same player corp or you're in for a doubleconcordokken.) --*=*=*--

Originally by: Dalcx The problem is what is Pve in EVE? Only doing missions? Or could it be beeing a Miner, Trader, Industrial Tyccon ect..
So pls Define Pve in EvE 
Trading, industry and to some extent mining ( as you generally need to sell the minerals to someone, be it using sell orders or filling buy orders ) are very far from PvE. The scenario doesnt consist of you competing against the AI, but other players.
Well, if something isn't PVE because there is an element of 'PVP' to it, then nothing would be PVE in Eve, as there is an element of PVP in everything. That of course depends on what you consider being PVP, but if competing against players on the market is PVP then I would definately rate ninja looting in Empire space, competing for entity spawns in complexes and belt ratting and exploration, as being PVP. Not to mention that all of the PVE content in low sec and 0.0 would be PVP then if we catagorized PVE based on such criteria.

Ok, lets switch the debate a bit.
WoW came in second for best PvP. Thats almost as crazy in my mind  I dont consider ratting or mission grinding to be the definition of PVE in EVE, EVE blends most of the PVE and PVP in a way that makes it hard to really define and point out which is which.

Exactly.
PVE in EVE sucks horribly. It's the lowest of the low. Bottom of the barrel.
And that's perfectly well and good, because there's hardly any chance to encounter real PVE in EVE.
Find a way to eliminate NPC sales from the market, and EVE will be absolutely, one hundred percent pure PVP.

I actually agree with EVE having good PVE and Story.
I havent seen any other games that actually posts news stories on the NPC factions. Also, in a game like EVE, the alliances can make the story for the game in a way.
About PVE, a lot of people think this is horrible because they assume PVE only includes ratting, missions, and complexes. I think its great though, especially now that you have exploration.

The difference with WoW is that you don't *need* to grind in EvE to get somewhere, you do not *need* to kill hundreds of thousands of stupid orcs to advance ingame. This is what makes EvE's PVE much better than WoW's, here you at least have the choice to grind or not.

PvE isn't required in EVe, which is a plus.
Even though I voted for WoW in the PvE category, cause WoW deserves some credit for what it's done for MMOs in general, but EVE is just better in every way.
And biggest difference between EVE players and WoW players... we care.

You only need the grind for reducing taxes and fees, for R&D agents, for Security Rating, for Cosmos missions, for implants, for some skill books, ... --*=*=*--

Keep in mind what this means:
- A game that is 70x our size could not win due to our fanboism and motivation. - We took them out at their home turf of PvE. - They were all pretty busy enjoying "quiet time" with their night elves rather than voting

I have been playing 3.5 years now, and everything counted together I've probably grinded a month. I have level 1 and level 2 R&D agents (which already gave me a Pilgrim BPO), I barely do missions (did a few for roleplaying purposes), I don't mine, I don't hunt NPC's, I don't do COSMOS missions and I buy rare skill books. Nonetheless I have 45mil skillpoints, slowly accumulated over time, compared to WoW you *need* to grind to level up. I have tens of billions isk through reselling and manufacturing (and that one T2 BPO I got from the lottery), compared to WoW, you *need* to grind to get gold (or whatever currency they have).
Besides, if you needed to grind to get anywhere in EvE, I wouldn't be playing in the first place.
Grinding in EvE is a *choice*, you *chose* to lower taxing percentages or to get better R&D agents or some rare skills through grinding, you are not forced to do so to advance ingame.

Originally by: Gamer4liff You gotta admit, with exploration and cosmos EVE's PvE isn't THAT bad.
Exploration couldn't have an impact on the outcome.
Cosmos sucks big hairy things because you can lose all access to a tiny things out of your reach.
Mining, S&I and research are not part of PvE.
What backstory? The backstory that didn't move in 2 years short of a storyline that didn't follow the rest of the Amarr backstory? (All supporters and members of the order have to be put to death permanently on the spot.)
The stories are all player generated mostly and hey are usually better than anything ccp could come up with take the ascn/bob conflict I have friends on both sides and they both come telling you stuff you feel liek your involved when your not even there and allt eh alliance rumours and working out where you allaince stands is just adding to the story.

Originally by: Sean Dillon I dont understand, WoW has 7 million players, eve online 100 thousand. Yet they still gout out voted.
Anyway I agree EvE is the best pvp game out there.
Because the majority of WoWers are kids with ADD and lack the patience and IQ to sit through a "poll" and vote.
Not to mention most are probably stuck in some dungeon for 4 hours straight to try and win something that has no other purpose than to be hanging on someone's wall in game.
Wait, that sounds like CYVOK and his Titan.......

I think eve's pve content wins hands down because all of it can be done by a solo player, with multiple accounts.
Wow surely would never be able to beat that with it's group oriented, complexed structured gang systems and recuired collective effort.
It's far more fun doing everything on your own, little wonder we won hands down ______

Winning any kind of award should be useful to Eve for advertising purposes but if this was Eve vs Wow, its not much to really brag about.

It means that Eve is more easy than Warcraft, nothing else. You can learn everything in Eve without any efforts. Isn't it boring?

You don't learn anything by training skillpoints...you only learn through experiance.

Lol you are brimming with PAWNZORED powers there. MMORPG.COM forum awards are just popularity contests and dont really mean a lot you know apart from showing who has the most people spamming there award forums.
And its little suprise that eve won from the moment the Devs amde The MMORPG forum award there top news story.

Yes you are quite right in the end it was a contest between EvE and WoW so of course as most people on MMORPG.com either EvE fans or not HATE WoW so it ws pretty obvious from the monent i saw who the 2 finalists were that Eve would win in all catagories.
