It's been a while since Eve-China was launched, so does anyone know what's going on on their side of the universe? Are there the same amount of pew pew, whining, scamming, and farming going on?

I think it turned into a huge grind fest/farming mania and any political developments only tried to mirror the communist party or something.

It is another Chribba thing. But, there was a good thread a little while back with players (really one or two) who played on Serenity who talked about it.

Eve China is failing due to the maximum 2 hour game time per day. Eve China kicks you out after 2 hours so most of the end game is useless. Even tricking the oponnant with alts to get them to waste 2 hours on their mains has become a valid tactic.
Also, once you drop pos's, it is hard to take them down. Would you fly a dread in a laggy pos seige that could get stuck with the game timer kicking you off before you jump out?
Again, Eve China would have been a major hit were it not for the 2 hour max timer that destroys the balance.

Out of interest, why the 2hr time limiter?

There have been a lot of people who've played for way to many hours and have died while playing MMOs in a number of asian countries (though mostly South Korea and China). I believe the law was implemented as a matter of public safety.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of the underground internet cafes in China have a way around the system other than using alt accounts.

The players on Serenity seem to be enjoying themselves and word is slowly spreading as more people find favour with the game style of EVE. The community is admittedly small but there are still interesting political machinations and all the usual things one has come to know and love about EVE on Tranquility. It is just a lot smaller. But we have plans which will hopefully change that within the next couple of months.

I thought the Chinese MMO Time Limit meant that you just stopped earning after the first (x) hours. In WoW it would mean that after (x) hours, no more XP. You could still grind for lewt, just no XP. Which, if anything, is the farmers' dream.
I don't know how this would translate to EVE. ----- TANSTAAFL

OMG Chribba! Are you serious??? Now that, my friends, is an addiction! Although, it will be nice to hear your take on the situation in that server. I just hope you come back to TQ. With that few players, you'll be able to mine Velds anywhere.
I swear I saw Chribba freebasing Veld in Amarr!!!

I hope you do that while really concentrating on the need for speed above everything else, especially the phenomenon that is fleet battles.

Best I can find out about the 2hr limit is this ...
"In 2005, China announced new laws intended to combat online game addiction by requiring game companies to impose increasingly severe in-game penalties on players that play longer than three hours at a time. It is unknown if any of the proposed laws were actually implemented."

why is there a 2 hour timer?
My understanding is that the game auto logs you after a certian amount of time because in order to comply with Chinese law, CCP made it this way (otherwise they would likely not have been given the go-ahead to even open the server).
This is the nature of communist nations. Simply put, the state controls you, and you're not free to do what you want.

the actual law restricting play time applies to those under 18. And it's not 2 hours. There is a first 3 hour timer where you can accumulate XP at 100%, after that there is a 2 hour timer where XP is gained at 50%. After the 5 hours total you cannot play. Minors are also not allowed to PvP afaik.
i can only guess as to how CCP changed Eve to fit within these parameters. Possibly your SP rate is halved and eventually halted while your online, but SP continues after you log off as long as you have a subscription.

Wow, China really sucks.
Eve doesnt sound like any fun at all.... sounds like "who wants to suck china's communist c**k" game.
know wonder its one giant failure.... to bad they can't play the "real" game.
Hopefully their money will help make our game better.

Do us all a huge favor and get a screenshot of the in-game sovereignty map, along with a screenshot of the 30 minute player density map. I think we're all dying to know who controls what, and where everyone is.
I'd really like to generate an Influence map, but these guys don't seem to have the API stuff yet. ---- FREE Explorer Lead Megalomanic EVE Automated Influence Map |
