I was quite surprised to see http://go-dl1.eve-files.com/media/0708/eve-boom-headshot.JPG on the front page of the eve-o website. I would have thought that even in cartoons that this kind of imagery would be considered over the top.
Or maybe thats just me and all the bf1942/hl2 people who play this game will tell me that I suck for not liking it |

Edited by: Death Kill on 29/08/2007 10:16:54 EVE is a mature game. If a person have issues with it, then hello kitty is the otherway.
edit : To any concerned kids...dont worry he had an up to date clone and is alive and well in Jita.

Do you mean that it is mature = old (out of beta yet?) or do you mean a game for mature people? The latter is pretty obvious from the spelling, reading comprehension and general behavior of people on the forums ...

I completely agree with the OP this is a traversty of justice, the shooter should have a BFG 9000 at the very least and where tf are the scarey jovian aliens in the background

eve is a dark place, and this is a teen rated website. So i guess the picture is suiting of that, afterall its not showing anythign too graphic (as in blood and gore, or his brains being splatted). And we do blow each other up ingame quite alot. I just dont think it would give the same impression if they were giving each other flowers or maybe showing each other there carebears. - Thanks Hutch. ____

There is no blood/guts/skull/brain flying out of the back of his head, so IMO yes, its perfectly acceptable. This is EVE, not 'Hello Kitty Island Adventure' and in EVE people die!
Besides its a drawing/cartoon, and who gets offended by Cartoons?

Waaaaas gonna answer that, but i doubt it's "kosher" to talk about those things here
So yeah, i have a problem with being serious, but it's the almost smallest problem i have. |

No EVE is obviously not a mature game. If it were, headshots wouldn't have a place on the front page, and tbh I too find it rather tasteless.

the MAIN picture at the top of the story has some blood (or most likly the remains of the contents of his head) if you look behind the glowing bars. Its a damn cool piture. I think even that isnt exactly bad though. - Thanks Hutch. ____

That's absolutely sick. I had a friend who once posted a pic of a sore bottom with the text "Let the healing begin" after we started chasing a corp thief... anyway that was instantly removed and he got a warning. Guess we better stick to people getting their brains/skull blown apart then

Last time I checked, graphic violence was not a problem anywhere in the US (including blood, body parts etc. etc.), as opposed to sex or nudity (think Janet Jackson's nipple).
You may be thinking of Germany, where it's the other way round.

/signed ... Graphic violence is most attractive for boys between 14 and 18, as well as slightly ******** older men, which may be CCP's targt audience. :-)

The thing I found most funny was the fact that there is swearing in the chronicles, and they are linked from the eve website. If we swear on the forums it gets censored, if we link to a website that contains swearing, it gets *snipped*.

there's a difference between mature and sick - at least for my taste the front page glimpses pictures and stories prominently featuring aggression, violence, torture, dismemberment, death, etc. far too often ... i mean you kind of start to wonder, what is this game for people with sadistic personality disorder and necrophiliacs?

The clones in EVE require you to be inside a Pod, so that your brain's contents are copied right before you die. ;-)
