Although I have only just found EvE I am already in love with it. The freeform nature of the game reminds me of the old days when I used to play Elite.
Looking forward to seeing just what this game has to offer.

There's nothing else better. EVE is far far faaaaaaar from perfect but it's still better than WoW.
why do people compare eve to wow all the time? it's too easy. even my foot compares to wow.
Compare it to guild wars, another highly pvp centred mmo-type game.
eve is substantially different to both however, 'tis why i like it so.
Because WoW combines being both the biggest and highest suckage ratio in any one MMO. It's just an easy target.
Guild wars had far better PvP than EVE though yeah. Shame it was all contained in stupid arenas, there was no death penalty and no real reason to fight (nothing to defend/attack). If I wanted that kind of gameplay I'd play a FPS.

Best thing about Eve? Errr... well... bashing CCP, BOB, and generally having a whine, because in the words of Eminem:-
Now this looks like a job for me
So everybody just follow me
'Cos we need a little controversy
'Cos it feels so empty without me

(By the way, I'm joking!)

aye, the only thing to prove in guildwars is your skill, but it get's boring after like...thousands of hours of fighting! and as you say FPS's give that 'rush' when you frag someone, hence why i'm here playing eve (i also play fear combat, it's free :D), but i've nothing but respect for NCsoft and what they did with guildwars and their committed, revolutionary, approach to the casual gamer and player skill over time played/wealth. and no subscription fee's? zero lag? *foams*
I played wow and thought it was a complete 'carebare' ridden joke, it's an excuse for subscription fee's and virtual accumulation of status/wealth, nothing more. And the PvP servers? good god..lol.
anyhow, eve is shaping up to be good, i can't wait to join a corp and taste this games pvp.

I'm gonna have to agree with everything you said. I wasn't bashing Guildwars or anything. For a near-free MMO it's excellent. It dragged me away from EVE for a while, but... with nothing to achieve but a higher place on a meaningless ladder, what's the point?
And a rundown of why WoW sucks ass wasn't necessary, succinct though it was. It's almost innate or instinctual among the PvPers here to hate WoW with every fiber of our being.
I might be jaded to EVE having played it for a while but you've still got everything to experience yet. I kinda envy the new players in that respect. I want the adrenaline rush of PvP back.

Start flying ships in PvP that you can't afford to replace easily if they go down. Brings the adrenaline rush right back.

I don't have any ISK. I am flying ships I probably can't afford to lose, because they take a sizeable chunk out of my wallet every time I lose one.
But a sizeable chunk of nothing is still nothing.
I could earn more ISK to spend on more expensive ships but that would require grinding of some kind and I don't play games to grind.

aww! i only need to see 0.4 in the sec status and my hearts pounding! I also hang about outside J4.4 watching the occasional BS get blown up (oddly they have all been dominixs) by 'gank squads'. Eve excites me like gws never could.

Why do I love Eve?
After nearly 20 years, Elite was starting to show its age.

I play eve becuase life lacks explosions and pretty spaceships with guns
Kind of like the Triforce in Zelda, only not quite as potent.

Back in the day when I used to enjoy games like Elite, Privateer and Tradewars 2002, I imagined what similar games would evolve into a decade later. EvE has gone far beyond what I imagined and expected. And it's everything Freelancer had aspired to be, and much more.

I love Eve because....
umm...well it's awesome when all your guns and missile launchers are going and there are explosions all around and I have the sound turned way up!!!
Very good stuff!
But also the freedom that it provides. I've played several online games and Eve is certainly unique.
