Forum Alt Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2007.03.02 14:41:00 - [1] Edited by: Forum Alt on 02/03/2007 14:46:26 It's simple really. Read the comments of the people on there that are rating it. Here are the reasons I see after reading several pages and I totally agree with them. Ranked in order of importance. 1 being the most important. Lots of little irritating bugs that NEVER get fixed EVER. These little things add up and over time give the impression that the game is held together with string and bubble gum. Constant addition of new shiny content that is also broken and never gets fixed on top of the things that are already broken and never get fixed.(i.e. Obvious lack of understanding of what is important and what is not.) Apparent lack of understanding of their own playerbase. Not everyone likes to kill each other. In fact most players don't engage in combat with other players at all and have no wish to. Then we get a blog that gives the impression that these players will be forced to shoot each other because the devs don't think they know how to play correctly. Dev misconduct regarding T2 BPO handouts/cheating and lack of justice regarding those that knew and profitted from it. These are not my personal opinions but I do agree with them. I'm simply putting together a summary of what I see as the biggest issues people are having with Eve from the MMORPG.com comments and forums.
Forum Alt Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2007.03.02 15:01:00 - [2] Originally by: Anaalys Fluuterby You believe that you read on the Internet? Simply, no online poll or survey is close to accurate, it just reflects the feelings of who happened to be online during the 24 hours or so that they accepted submissions and opinions. IE. It all depends on when it was done, who did it AND who they told the poll was happening. EVE was top ranked in December on that very site and took best game (2006) in multiple categories. This time around none of the EVE community even knew that they were doing a review, so no one in the community added thier voice on EVE's side...... Not sure what you mean. You can do a review and rate the game on MMORPG.com at any time. You just need an account and some activity on it to reduce rating spamming.

EVE IS PvP, dont like it, dont play it. No use whining about too much pvp. Its what the devs want, its what us older players love. The lower EVE drops on some "ranking" the better, as less noobs who whine all the time apply and find out what EVE really is about and then request the game changed to their style. You are more than welcome to log into MMORPG.com and read for yourself. I was simply giving a summary. Thanks for the thoughtless attack. It was amusing

This is not misunderstanding the playerbase. This is understanding the game. Classic...

It¦s so funny when people hear PVP they think pew pew. I hope you know that the market is PVP? Players competing on the market for most/best sells. Devs want more PVP, thus more players interacting with eachother in a way. Is is a PVP-game, be it pew pew or the market. Very true! However, the overall aire of the blog in question seemed to focus on moving people into areas where they would need to "pew pew". The blog itself wasn't really the issue. It was the implication of what was being said between the lines so to speak. The sheer amount of comments to that effect on the blog's comments thread shows the confusion and how it was perceived by a large portion of the playerbase. Even though it was stated in that very blog that PvP isn't only direct combat, that was negated and overwhelmed by the type of PvP that would be required in order to experience the proposed changes (mission runner vs. gank). This is where the problem occured.
Forum Alt Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2007.03.03 03:23:00 - [6] Originally by: Malthros Zenobia You don't come to a game that is player driven and involves tons of PVP, and expect it to turn Pve just for you. 100% correct. However, I can understand the PvE players becoming upset when the devs tell them they are playing the game wrong. Look at it from their point of view. What if the devs said "We are going to try to move more PvP'ers into PvE because we don't think they are playing the game correctly." I can totally understand why they would feel insulted.
