If the world ends, losing EVE isn't high on the list of things to worry about.
Aside from that, EVE will last forever... In our hearts.

I think the future looks bright. Everybody who now gets hooked on starter mmorpg games like WoW and Conan will sooner or later want something different and more mature.
None of the other mmorpg games takes the genre anywhere, they are all the same. Wow took the classic mmorpg and made it pretty and easy to understand (like Microsoft did with operating systems and office software), so they attracted lots of customers because of it. But these customers will want a more lasting online experience than killing 10 frogs for some quest giver in the future.

Originally by: CCP Taera The CCP team has more than doubled in the last few years, precisely to avoid the situation you are outlining. We are not pulling any support off of EVE to work on another product, and we have no plans of discontinuing/lessening EVE development in the years to come. We love our spaceships .
aww I want to work at CCP :(
It's not fair why don't you guys have internships :(

Wondering why it takes in excess of 2 weeks to get petitions answered. Wondering why - if game mechanics fail - people are not reimbursed and are confronted with some BS reply Wondering why - if you guys love your spaceships so much - you dont fail to disgust people with nerfs and take a hell of a lot of fun out of this game. Wondering what you guys smoke!

Not very long if they keep hiring people who seemingly don't play the game and have a large role in changing game mechanics.

Originally by: Martin Mckenna Hey.
Just a quick poll. How much longer do you think EVE will last/hope will last.
I know CCP are working on another game now and im worried that this my have an impact on the development of EVE.
Im not realy clued up about how long MMOs like this usualy last until the player base dies out.
I personal would hope EVE would last at least another 5 years. Just wondering what other people think.
fake edit: rereading this post it sounds ******ed but im posting it anyways.
Well considering it has been said numerous times I guess it cannot hurt to be said again. It is not the same team working on World of Darkness so that will not be EVEs down fall.

I would love to see an 'Eve 2' with a well-designed... non choppy GUI... plus whatever multithreading methods necessary to kill the lag

To kill the lag they need a better virtual machine running on their servers that allows dynamic load balancing, rather than assigning cycles based on what they were like yesterday.
Common superstition in Dodixie - if it wasn't laggy yesterday, it will be today. This superstition happens to be true. -----

It will last as long as gamers are interested in pLaying EvE.
Success brings mimics. There are other Sci-Fi/Space MMORPGs being developed. Instead of being the only flavor ... their will several options soonÖ that will cater to every whine that tried to shape EvE.
It makes sense to branch into a new frontier ... a World of Darkness.

I used to think this too until I realized that it wouldn't make any difference because the problem they have is that Python is hamstrung by it's GIL so that the code can't take advantage of additional cores, or other hosts for that matter. So something like VmWare's migration features wouldn't make much difference assuming all nodes are the same....
and there isn't *much* physical difference between nodes at the CPU Ghz level.
Infiniband will make moving between hosts (nodes) quicker as it will help them shunt tons of data quickly.
They need 6Ghz Power-6 python running nodes though... plus the infiniband / sol system re-writes 
meh. whatever. |

My personal hope is that CCP go on with EVE for ever and simply continue to extend the universe... first in space then on stations then on planets with vehicles, troops, buildings that provide resources for planetary and interplanetary economies etc.etc.pp. Basically what we have is a really cool space MMO.. now all CCP has to do is merge it with a over-the-shoulder sort of RPG, merge some sim city and/or civilization in there and mix in some flight simulator, trains simulator etc. in there. You get my meaning.
So basically I'd say "forever and ever and ever..."

Asheron's Call had the same issues when AC2 came out. AC2 sucked, and AC1 is still running.
it gets old and dies when devs quit the project. after that it's what companies call a milk cow. i dont see it happening here! :p ------

OFFICIAL PREDICTION for the End of EvE:
It will all come down and EvE will cease to exist the day before all my combat skills are maxed and my character is Uber enough to begin pawning everything in sight and is traveling to destroy the most combat powerful character in EvE to take his/her place as the most combat powerful character in EvE.

You're so wrong... The future is black. Brace for impact! 
But anyway as long as eve keeps evolving it will continue to last for years to come.

I must say that even thou I don't agree with alot of the changes CCP does to this game... I just can't get rid of my character. I'll probably play EVE until the day she bites the apple.
