FuQue	Posted - 2008.04.03 20:50:00 - [1] I can't believe what I just read. Linkage I'm disgusted this is actually going to happen. Way to ruin a game and keep everyone walking around in stations, CCP.
Overwhelmed	Posted - 2008.04.03 21:00:00 - [2] Cool, not that I like poker but now we'll see people complaining about being "griefed" at the poker table while everyone else repeats "Don't put anything in the pot that you can't afford to lose." ------------------------------------------------ Disclaimer: This is a meta-game alt for meta-game discussions.
Asestorian	Posted - 2008.04.03 21:13:00 - [3] People already play Poker ingame, through ingame browser apps. This just adds an offical version of it. --- Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.

Players will be able to set up dialogue trees, and give and receive items. NEVER go shopping in Goons R' Us. Originally by: CCP Eris Discordia I usually close my eyes and just beg, out loud added with a lot of squealing. I swear it helps.

Leandro Salazar The Blackguard Wolves Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2008.04.03 21:41:00 - [8] Edited by: Leandro Salazar on 03/04/2008 21:41:27 Actually I would love minigames... but poker? I mean really... You'd think CCP would have enough creative power to come up with their own minigames within the EVE theme. Like something akin to Arcomage, the minigame that was in Might&Magic VII. I loved that, more often than not I played MM7 yet another time just to do some Arcomage... There is no 'n' in turret There is no 'r' in faction There is no 'a' in Scorpion There is no 'e' in Caldari There is no makeup in rogue drones

What the poker? That thing that a bunch of people already do in their private channels losing billions of ISK to each other? What's wrong with bringing that to the masses? What's wrong with adding in an element to the game that's beyond just shooting crap?

Tarminic Forsaken Resistance The Last Stand	Posted - 2008.04.03 21:42:00 - [10] Personally, I think that all non-combat game elements should be removed. EVE is, after all, all about combat right? ---------------- Tarminic - 34 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.5 (Updated 4/2)

If people want to do that in their own time with their own means - fine. But CCP has more important **** to take care of than something totally superfluous like ambulation or ingame poker. fix the bloody game already. Yes i know i spelled COAD wrong.

FuQue Imperial Academy	Posted - 2008.04.03 21:42:00 - [12] Immersion is great, if it doesn't affect what Eve's supposed to be about, which is internet spaceships. And we all know how serious business that is.
Asestorian Domination. Scorched Earth.	Posted - 2008.04.03 21:47:00 - [13] Ambulation would be made anyway because they're using it in part for WoD iirc. Also, I do want a few things in EVE beyond the core gameplay. Something to pass the time when I don't feel like shooting at things, be it players or NPCs. I'm not the only one either. And anyway. It doesn't affect you. You don't have to use it. The devs would be doing it anyway. So what's the problem? --- Quote: Welcome to EVE, a PvP game where people are - shockingly - allowed to PvP as much as they like.

Vivitari Imperial Academy	Posted - 2008.04.03 21:51:00 - [15] Edited by: Vivitari on 03/04/2008 21:51:18 Firstly, to whoever said CCP have better things to do than ambulation, remember its an entirely seperate team doing it. Secondly, I see no difference than what players are already doing other than there being physical cards. Plus, Chribba run card tourney anyone? _ EVE: The Vivitari Story - A Blog by Nobody in EVE Online Patch Days

Not everything does nor ever should revolve around eve. Not every person in CCP can be coding all the time. There are graphics artists, and all manner of other people. And you still haven't addressed the point that CCP would be doing this anyway for their World of Darkness project. If that's the case, what's wrong with them giving that to us in EVE? Oh yeah. Nothing. But that doesn't go well with your idea that EVE should never change beyond it's initial state. --- Quote: Welcome to EVE, a PvP game where people are - shockingly - allowed to PvP as much as they like.

And we all know how serious business that is. EVE is also about competition. I think that if people want to wager billions of ISK on a poker hand instead of a fleet battle, it can be done without changing watering down the spirit of EVE. ---------------- Tarminic - 34 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.5 (Updated 4/2)

If CCP had this in mind we would still be pre-Cold War Can say many a thing in favour of 'no pos warfare' to 'current pos warfare mechanics'. I know what you mean, and i'm not saying they should never change or add anything, but in it's current form and especially growing in the current trend eve will need a lot of work if we want to be able to play it in 2008 like we were used to in 2006/7, god forbid even earlier.

But that doesn't go well with your idea that EVE should never change beyond it's initial state. Where did i say that? I'm just saying that eve in it's current form needs a lot of work before they should think of adding or modifying major factors. I understand what you're saying here (although you still haven't addressed that point), but that's not exactly fair to everyone. For a start, there are only so many people that can sit and look over code to find and fix bugs before there are too many and they just make it worse. I'm pretty annoyed with all the random crap that keeps happening to: my overview and UI settings not being saved properly; randomly lag spikes etc etc. I also want to see changes in many other aspects of EVE, especially relating to alliances and supercapitals. But there are people working on that already, and in the meantime I don't see a problem with adding in extra content that improves and makes this virtual world more interesting; especially one that interacts very, very little with the core game itself, making it unlikely to cause any major issues. Also, I'd just like to say that you should avoid making references to what I can and can't do in real life, because you are totally ignorant of the circumstances in which I find myself, which indeed may make it difficult to hit Ctrl+Q and play about out there, riding bikes like goons. Not that I'm particularly offended or upset or anything, just pointing out that maybe all I can do is play EVE. --- Quote: Welcome to EVE, a PvP game where people are - shockingly - allowed to PvP as much as they like.

Way to ruin a game and keep everyone walking around in stations, CCP. I'm vey pleased this is actually going to happen Poker Holdem is a very hard and skilled game, much more PvP in poker than in "market PvP". CCP with the rake can drain ISKs from game in a very smart way, while the poker player enjoy the game. if u dont like it, dont play, easy choice ? u dislike it, others like it, usual stuff, not a drama
Chelone Stone Shadow Syndicate deadspace society	Posted - 2008.04.03 22:10:00 - [25] Originally by: Sokratesz Every line of code wasted on ambulation is one less optimisation made to Eve's core game play. Precisely. Moreover, the more extraneous stupidity they code into the game, the more bugs they add to the pile. Here's my question -- why did this Olafsson reference YULAI as a place of high commerce? It hasn't been that for years. As far as I can see, it is completely dead now. This makes me think he is extremely disconnected from what is actually happening in-game, which make his plans to "improve it" even more worrisome.

Not that I'm particularly offended or upset or anything, just pointing out that maybe all I can do is play EVE. Sense? On my internet? This must be breaking some sort of universal law. First, sorry, i don't now your situation and it may have slipped me a little too quick. Even though, if you are somehow bound or limited to a computer, there are near infinite other things you can do with it besides eve. Second, if they are indeed working on things like the UI, lag, super caps, pos warfare etc etc, i would really like to get a status update because that would be something that would directly involve anyone playing the game instead of just those that will choose to use ambulation. CCP are quick to announce shiny new things that will attract alot of media attention, yet they seem so sparse with releasing information about fundamental things that will affect the majority of the playerbase.

Asestorian Domination. Scorched Earth.	Posted - 2008.04.03 22:19:00 - [29] Sokratesz: I agree, it'd be nice to get a little more information on what CCP were doing to fix things. But I prefer to be positive and think that the lack of information is a result of them working so hard to do it. My point really is that CCP can and should continue to add interesting content like Ambulation as well, because some of us, especially those who are interested in the world of EVE beyond the game side, like that kind of thing. --- Quote: Welcome to EVE, a PvP game where people are - shockingly - allowed to PvP as much as they like.
