Tarpia recruited me from the E&B forums months ago...from what I understand there is a huge influx of x-E&B players to EVE. =======Abaddon=======

EA really are terrible and the guy is right, they are destroying creativity and more importantly originality in the games they produce. I still shed a tear for Westwood, remember the original C&C

Edited by: Deadflip2 on 20/03/2004 11:01:53 EA is the most pefetic game producer on earth: (i rarely buy a game from them), its for 2 resons.
a) instead of improving stuff on the same lvl as the past wich was prefered by a lotta players, they try to IMROVE a past game (take goldeneye) and have yet to do it properly (yes people i bought ALL of them in a hope that itdd be good, but the newest multiplayer is no tactic at all, the previous one was even better, and still i play goldeneye with more pleasure after so many years)
b) the take over all good companys (take WESTWOOD, RA1 and CnC and Tib Sun (already a decline, sicne EA started interfearing here..) RA2 was crap becouse they tried to improve with new sorts of gameplay not getting near westwoods, CnC generals was crap becouse no matter how hard i tried i was afread to play it against better players due to the RANKING, take CnC renegade, now that was a pretty descent game, allthough westwood still had some power back then, nevertheless i coulda been better, like it used to.
c) EA is typical american, instead of making one game real GOOD they make so many games (5 where for example blizzard / quality nintendo producers make 1) making 250$ instead of just 50$ (here come the american its all about the money).
d) look more closely they abbandoned a lotta games in the sence of patches just becouse, once u buy a game that doesnt need monhtly, why would they care? they already got ur 50$ or so. Ultima has more player = more money. EnB (face it) never had enough.
e) Microsoft has improved this making stuff like Movie Maker 2 and free patches etc, EA has yet to.
f) I'm gonna try never to buy an EA game again (though i didnt play EnB (did do beta..) you guys have to admit this is pefetic). I suggest u all do the same
g) see f)
h) see f)
i) just came up with another one, the SIMS, they got like what 9 of ehm now, each wich an improvement so small it could just as wel be downloaded. thats 450$ in the bag for fans... actually i did the same buying all those bond games , they are all equally as BADASS! --- "this song reminds me of the girl i met on a schooltrip, she was really nice, and she really liked me.

EA also crushed Multi-Player Battletech on us when it had a great playerbase in open Beta. that was just before E&B opened.Nice to see all the E&B'ers coming out this way, though. I gave up on that game during EVE Beta, and haven't regretted it yet.
Just remember, the penalties are higher here than it was in cartoon-space. It definitely keeps you on your toes.

Anyone try sim city 4?
They released the game unfinished. Didn't say it on the box, so you didn't know till you installed it. By then it had been open and was to late to return it.
The error message promised they would patch in the missing half of the game... a patch that never came.

Yeah, you're spot on, Bullfrog released some of the most influential games I've ever played and most likely ever will play. Theme park rocked my world for years.
Shame Maxis will soon die out as EA sucks everything it can out of another great games developer.

Earth and Beyond would have been the best MMORPG ever created. Better than EVE. But EA has a simple strategy--buy out their competitors... but don't use their games! Just dissolve the whole company, simply to get rid of competition.
And Earth and Beyond, because of lack of funding, had less content released in its entire time out than it should have had in the first 3 months.
**** you, EA.

I think we should all be glad that Eve is created by a small company that dedicated to its success.
Thanks CCP, cheers to you.

thinkign about it ur right, due to ccps efforts lately, and them becommign less indipendent they managed to grow the playerbase back up from a falldown from 5500 to 4500 (looking at sudnay evening) back to a 7500 - soon 8000  --- "this song reminds me of the girl i met on a schooltrip, she was really nice, and she really liked me.

OMFG that's really hilarious!
And it's coming from a moderator of theirs....
Always sad to see a game die because of corporate policy and so on though...
That's why EVE rules doesn't it??!?!?! We're free from the likes of EA and Activision.
BTW, welcome Earth and Beyond refugees

Nah, they killed themselves after Chris Taylor left.
CT is, however, working on a new RTS...

The only thing I liked about EnB was being able to get out of your ship and walk around.. With player portrates this would be rather difficult to implament in the future. Cause if CCP couldn't get my blue hair right I would sue.
I hope the people that do come over here from EnB really enjoy our universe, and Calvert, you jerk, I saw that post about Curse in there :P ------------------
