My friend tried it recently and apparently the game world is ridiculously small.

I would have to agree - they need to add more ports and at least double the map size it is now. I sailed from Orlando FL area to Colombia in less than an hour. Which is a trip that usually takes like 3 days AND nights. _________________________________________________________ My Second EvE Video Club Seals Not Sandwichs

It's a decent game with both a lot of good and bad aspects. Most of the bad parts can be related to avatars. Avatar combat is very unpolished and being in cities leads to horrible performance with mediocre settings on a high-end computer. On the plus side I think ship combat is very well made and can become very tactical when fighting equal forces.
I'll probably buy it, but I'll also be surprised if I stay for more than 2 months. But then again, I have only touched the economy and pvp side of the game slightly, so I could still be possitively surprised.

I didn't like it very much. The ship combat is done rather well, and is enjoyable, but you still need to spend a lot of time off your ship to get things done, and that isn't done very well at all (in fact they only decided late in the development process to include it properly) and I hate the walking/running animations on the characters. They look absolutely ridiculous. I also think that they "New player experience" as we EVE players like to call it could be greatly improved. You get there in the end, but the amount of pointless running about is a little annoying.
I suppose it's partly because I can't be bothered to learn how to play a new game as well though. It has potential, but for me it's not worth buying at retail when it comes out, at least not till it's been improved greatly.

Ship combat is well done. Sadly though small fast ships are easily shredded by larger ships and are used very little. This is compounded by the fact that many larger ships have tiny blindspots since they can fire not only from the sides but front and back as well.
Ground combat or anything to do with the ground game is HORRIBLE. Avatars are of poor quality. Customization is pathetic. Movement bugs run rampant. Combat in general is bad and boring. Ground missions are the pits. The entire ground game needs several months of redevelopment.
Game bugs are numerous. There are even some hacks which are used in pvp combat causing undo lag, ship crew errors, and ship board fights being locked. PvP and city control needs to be reworked. UI needs improvement. Economy needs to be reworked and balanced. And the map is very small. I can't see the current map sustaining more than 1000 people at a time. Overall, this game needs ALOT of work and definitely not worth the $15 per month they want for it.
There are some decent concepts used in the game but they need alot more development. The game is great for a while but rapidly you get tired of it. Level 50 is the endgame and afterwards there isn't much to do other than contesting cities. No boss raids, no big quests, no major combat.

Edited by: Dirtball on 19/12/2007 00:17:54 the game is not really that fun.
it's lonely when it shouldn't be, during fights, and not lonely when it should be, out on the open seas.

Reminds me of WoW a little.

Fileplanet's download sucks. I found an alternate location from Flying Labs and it went much better.
That said, after finally getting in to play....it is a resounding MEH. So not better than EVE. Hell, it is not even as good as LOTRO.

I got the invite and tried it. After 2 days of downloading attempts I got into the game.
Wandering around in the towns looked quite ok and even was fun. The gui looked nice.
Then I got into a ship, teh feature I was looking forward to. It looked bad, was hell to steer and....
I saw a fight between two ships further on. I moved towards it and wanted to start shooting at one of both. I was surpised I could not. they were locked in a private area. when I tried it out later myself, engaging some NPC ship, I was transported to another screen, in which the fight was annoyingly slowpaced and dull as hell.
That same evening I threw away the account and deinstalled.
Are you immersed in Eve and all it's aspects ? It will suck for you. Are you a highsec carebear ? You'll potentially like it.
