God forbid all those twelve-year-old Counterstrike players who use Steam start playing EVE. Because PC users in general, as a group, are far more intelligent and mature, have much longer attention spans, and don't at all go for first-person shooters and other instant-gratification games aimed at teenage boys. It's only once you get to that sub-group of people using Steam that you run into trouble. 
Seriously, you people sound like sheep. The first time an MMORPG expanded to another platform (or client base, if you will), aside from Mac of course, was when Final Fantasy XI released for the PS2. I was playing Final Fantasy XI at that time, and all the FFXI players sounded exactly like some of you people in this thread: "OMG, all these video game k1dz and n00bz are going to come in and RUIN THE GAEM!!!"
When in fact, once it released, nothing of the sort happened.
I've been there, done that, got the T-shirt. You guys are just straight-up being ignorant and bigoted about this "Steam users lolwut?" crap, for no good reason whatsoever. ________________

i'm curious to see if we can get a new concurrent server population record with all the new people that will (hopefully) sign up, has it passed 40k yet?

We've been over 40k in early January. ------------------
Let me show you around. That's my lab table, and this is my workstool. And over there is my intergalactic spaceship. And here's where I keep assorted lengths of wire. |

Going by the amount of Companion Cube and Cake is a Lie threads, indicating use of the Portal game, it seems that there are several Steam users here already.
This means, of course, that Eve has already died, because Eve cannot handle the presence of Steam users.
Ohnoes. Well, I suppose that's that then, isn't it? Who won Eve, by the way? I wasn't really paying attention to the score.

Wow some of you guys are stupid to an incredible level. Seriously, before saying that an FPS community is composed of kids and such, you should do some research and notice that things have changed over the past few years.
I'm an FPS person myself, infact I used to compete and even made some money by winning a few tournaments. My team is still up and running since Quake 3 and we are still all together having fun. Of course, now we just play for fun since we now have families and etc. So we tend to play a little bit here and there. Most of us are also here on EVE.
Sure, you will meet the occasional idiot but overall, the FPS communities are consistent and solid with mature people.
People should calm down and start thinking about the future of CCP and not just their little self. It's important for CCP to grow in order to deliver better and bigger expansions and also for the sake of World of Darkness.

Honestly, who cares? It's not important what kind of people they are. Server stability is the biggest problem with this little venture. A problem that, without exception, affects everyone who plays.
I just want to know how the server load is going to be addressed. Or if we're going to have to deal with login queues and ungodly lag for months on end. That is all.

Originally by: Sorted Edited by: Sorted on 23/01/2008 14:48:34 Steam is a waste of time, badly designed - badly implmented and in this case completly pointless. Why use it to load EVE? extra resources used in teh background? wow - nice one.
Steam is a steaming pile of **** and should be put down like a mangey old dog.

The more crowded high-sec gets the more attractive low-sec gets. It just has to reach a point where its more profitable to go to low sec and lose ships than compete for high sec ore with 6 people in each belt.
