wow cators to the single player gamers and console retirees you can play that entire game as if you are the only one on the server and other people are just npcs
in eve even when using braindead tactics you will do better in a group
so in 5 - 10 years console retirees will start dying - wow dies and the modern generation of pc gamers will find everything they wanted in EVE ____ __ ________ _sig below_ devs and gms cant modify my sig if they tried! |

Who told you this? Good luck soloing end-game content in wow... Actually, there is much more solo players in EVE than in wow. If we are talking about pve content, of course.

That's because all generalisations are wrong.

Dont aggree im afraid. One has Worldwide advertising including primetime TV advert slots, where as the other has a few double page spreads in computer magazines. One is simple to play and the other is not.

you can do that in EVE, mission runners ?

the large amount of players in wow, and the low amount of players in eve (compared) is...
1. eve is hard to learn, wow is even easy for brain-dead-kids =p 2. huge global marketing from WoW compared to little to no marketing from Eve 3. Blizzard is a huge multi-million (maybe billion) company who can afford to spread the WoW commercials over the globe, while CCP is just a small company (especially when they began)

Edited by: Sheriff Jones on 14/08/2007 11:46:48 Edited by: Sheriff Jones on 14/08/2007 11:44:12 The reason why WoW has millions of people and EVE has tens of thousands is...*drumroll*...because WoW is more popular.
All this "wow is for kids, EVE is leet, EVE is for adults, WoW is easymode" is rather bullcrap.
They are, in their difference in setting, basically the same grindfest galore.
EVE does some things better, WoW does others. Other people like sci-fi, other fantasy.
Stop ******* comparing tics and tacs
Originally by: CelticKnight Whereas only the smart can play eve.
Exactly what i said. EVE is NOT that special. EVE is NOT that hard. EVE is NOT only for smart/adult people.
An 8 year old could easily pick up a ship and start doing stuff in EVE, it's the same basic MMO as any other around. It's just different.
So yeah, i have a problem with being serious, but it's the almost smallest problem i have. |

WoW has a large community, not from what you believe.. but because you dont even require 2 braincells to be able to play it.. a 8Yr old can pick the game up, start playing it and gain a little satisfaction. Ive played it (ZOMGOSH!). it requires so little skill i can play it effectively while drunk off my face, and asleep. Anyone, no matter thier age can get into it..
Whereas only the smart can play eve. Almost everyone i know is over 15yrs old.. because most of the concepts from eve are complex!
THAT is why wow is popular.. because anyone can pick it up, play it and feel good about themselves.. even though they may never get into a deeper aspect that smashing pathetic little NPCs. thus, only 5% of people actually make it to the levelcap :)
haha id imagine 50% of those do like i, get sick of it because of its total brainlessness, and go and play eve.. Thats if thier brain hasnt become a wet sponge from playing wow :)

well i guess it's the old argument... just because 50 billion flies eat **** doesn't mean that it's more tasty then chocolate.
But seriously: WoW's sole purpose is to make a lot of money so it was developed not to be an all round great game but simply to fulfill as many peoples needs with the least amount of extra development time. EVE on the other hand was made to be a cool game and sometimes cool games are harder to learn and master then the mainstream ones. It's like free jazz VS. main stream music or a work of art VS. a poster of Pamela. One is cheap trash with a nice package/wide pants/good figure and the other tries to win you over with content and substance.
Oh and GOD FORBID that WoW ever dies... even if only 1% of the WoW players would try EVE then their negative vibes will break everything! |

I could honestly make a big list of how EVE is just the same as WoW, and in parts WAY worse, but it would just get the old "No you fanboi go to wow!" arguments.
EVE players don't listen, not even at a fanboi level. Honestly. Look around.

A whole generation of gamers are growing up with WoW now, an accessible game like that is hardly going to die off unless Blizzard manage it insanely badly.
If anything, its a good thing because as the gaming industry grows we get more choice and more people to play with. The whole angst ridden, elitist mindset among a lot of EVE players may be what turns people off. ----------

eve has a extreme learning curve. its badly documented. has an extremely harsh death penalty. (i can remember the tutorial agent sending me trough amamake and getting me poded within the first 30mions of the game:). thats why alot of people dont stay after the 14 days trial and go back to wow etc..

would you really be honest?
I think i could loook at things in a "non sided" manner, yes.
There are so many similarities in MMOs if you just can take a moment to step out of the, hmm, how to put it, "i like this one" puddle people tend to stand in.

Edited by: Okano Hykeido on 14/08/2007 12:14:23 I play both games.
Have 2 EVE Characters and a 70 Warrior on wow. Im main tank for a guild so i cant really leave them :)
I like both, sure all u carebears here can stick wow cos it has like zomg 100,000,000 more players and eve only 30k on a nite.
But there totally different games, u cant really compare them and say WOW is gonna DIE EVE will live FOREVER.
No mate, wow got about 7/8years left init Guaranteed. Not sure about EVE we'll see how Star Trek Online goes ^^
LOL AND NO FK N WAY CAN U PLAY THE WHOLE ENTIRE OF WOW SINGLE PLAYER LMAO. Research before you say these stupid things else u just look like a ******.
words like END GAME - 40 man RAID. LoL id like to see you solo Tempest Keep the EYE that would be funny.
Solo Arena ? 1 VRS 5 lol . just lol, i dont even know why i bothered to reply in this thread. I like both games, for different reasons.
Im a console gamer, PC Gamer. Different Games on different platforms. Im hardcore mate, one thing tho. id say EVE has an older generation of players, not all but in general the kids tend to play wow.......because its abit more straight forward, abit more friendlier to the noob and easier to understand. I think those reasons alone make for the generation gap. i dunno :)
But point I Love them both, both have given me good times and good friends.
Peace

Yeah, thats probably why 'premade' groups used to obliterate 'pugs' in wow. :) In EVE 99% of pvp consists of either ganking 10+ on 1 or it is soooo laggy so all 'tactics' you can use is calling primaries while trying to acquire the lock.
WoW is by no mean a single player game... I don't know who told you this... EVE is superior on 'strategic' part and have a higher potentials on 'tactics' part, but unfortunelly its very hard to get a fight where you can actually use to 100% those advanced tactics in EVE.
The PVE in WoW is superior to EVE's by all parameters and is fully based on using advanced group tactics and teamplay. In fact comparing to wow eve have 0 pve content.

Aye lol, just for a change eh ? WOW is actually made for group participation. It was not designed to play solo.

You know why i like EVE ?
The PVP - The Risk, the ballsyness of the game. I guess thats why not many girls play it like wow but u know :) thats another thread.
I PLAY WOW FOR PVE
I PLAY EVE FOR PVP
Kind of. :) simple....
i killed 1000's of ppl on wow, but they never lost anything by it. It never cost them anything when they died.....just a free trip to the graveyard.
WoW is nice and friendly, EVE is badass. Icant ransom some1 for 50mill just to let them live in wow. LoL
theres so many differences in the game i cant beleive u are comparing them like this.
Try comparing it to STAR TREK ONLINE WHEN IT COMES OUT ^^
