nothing wrong with the rp crowd or more subs long as they do things to spread people out.
way eve evolves and expands its gameplay is one of the best things about the game hands down, and their goal to realise a full breathing universe from a ship to ship game to a game full of ships, full of stations, full of planets with great possibilities to many different types of gameplay.
eve if they do all these things or when rather i am sure they will instance the planets like the stations so the core game is uneffected by any of the other components. and unless your corp is going to force you to land on planet xyz beta and attack bob's military complex on there you could happily play whatever game you like wo being a bit bothered by any of the rest if you so choose.
more subs = more money for ccp = them hiring more people = faster development. a good thing imo.
first neocron was pretty innovative (i did the trial) very dated gfx tho, and heard nothing but bad things about neocron 2. but was worth checking out how their system worked.

I'd like to see something similar to Planetside for ground based combat.

i would not mind paying for an planet expansion for eve, after all eve is like the only company to never charge for a major update, if this were wow you would have payed 49.99 for trinity.

Do you think as a CSM issue that might actully be somethign to bring up to CCP? the idea of paying for an opional expansion like planary combat? maybe even only 20$ while releasing a sister expansion at the same time for space combat?
EDIT: now that I think about it though... CCP don't want half the player base to have it and the other not because it would rule out things like spaceships that can go down and transform and such.
Maybe CCP should just make a seperate game that is one time pay on valve? 50$ for a planet combat game for eve with a 1 player story as a grunt FPS?

lest going by their current model i would not think they would charge for it, just saying with the scope and the possible major change in gameplay it sure would be worth whatever.
ccp seems determined to have a complete and more or less seamless universe but the work to model how many planets, do you model a zone or do you model the whole planet? the vehicle mechanics, the shooting mechanics, buildings etc sure would almost be an entire game unto itself and a ton of work to get that far and they talking 09 or 10 thats not that far off and they have yet to release the basic ambulation. but knowing ccp 09 or 2010 could turn into 2020 or whatever ;P.
but on the other hand if they did break the model and charge for the planet expansion nothing wrong with that either if you did not have it you could not interact or land on planets is all no biggy you would have the same game you have now with station ambulation (and some sure cry enough about not wanting that even).

Hmm it would be pretty expensive to do all this, so I don't see where CCP could gets its money from without having to release as a separate Expansion that you have to pay for. I think it would be more mech based then actual guys on the planet, because it could easily transfer from EVE gameplay that is now on planets and CCP don't really need to do that much grunt work. Just have similar modules and fittings on the mech and do the texturing of the planet, make some contested points and bobs your uncle you have working planets. Though with the amount of planets in EVe it will take a shed load of work.
How did it go so wrong. |

Well planets could be generated procedurally to an extent. They could be released gradually if it takes a lot of time with the back story of terraforming hence things taking time.

oi, i would be all for walking and stuff like that like in a station and what not, but honestly, i dont think they should bring it much further than that, EVE has been a SpaceSHIP simulator, i dont think we need to start adding groundc ombat and such, unless this game gets a flood of people, like a million at LEAST that way there is still a fair amount of space traffic, because you know the FPS's would flood this game, and never set foot on a ship, and idk, they have other games for that, as i said, EVE has been a spaceship simulator, and i think it should remain the same.
however i do have a few ideas, kinda rough right now, but i think they would make an ok addition to the game, you konw how we can build stations and such, well, what if corporations and alliances could like . . . colonize planets and or moons? i think that would be a really good idea, they would work similar to space stations/ POS's, you can put things on the planet though instead of anchoring them around a station, and there would be like no limit really to Powergrid/ CPU, but instead maybe land, or resources, you would need far more resources to build things on the planet, Ammunition, drones, ship components, ect
and you know those militants and freedom fighters and Slaves (for the amarr out there ) that you might get from missions or whatever? well, wouldnt it be cool to be able to USE them? you could populate a planet w/ them to defend it or something, and other corps/ alliances could like take it over, or try to take it over by dropping their own militants/ tanks/ whatever on the planet, you should of course be able to provide orbital bombardment from your ship from orbit or whatever, and maybe they also could have defenses on the planet, or defenses around the planet
it would really expand the game, imho, as i said, kinda a rough idea right now, but still, could get something started

Because see, if Pod Pilots are the Demi-Gods of the Eve world, why would they fight as grunts?
*ding ding* We have a winner...
It's rather obvious to anyone who knows anything about the setting that pod pilots are not going to be running around with rifles, shooting each other.
