It is very strange that you come with this "improvement" at this time.. I guess that you as all other companies want to make your "iskies" as most others, but this is way wrong.
I guess that I can say that i talk for many of us, when i say that it is the idea of the game that really makes us play.. as you've already seen, many of us also uses laptops that we can bring where ever we go just to play this wonderful game..;)
don't take that away from us..
let there be a low end version that can be used by "old" computers, and you will still have a faithful group of players who will whine a bit sometimes but still pay the fee for 4 -5 accounts... and i guess that it is what matters in the long run... ;) |

yes I know Island got hit the worst of all of the European countries thats why its even LESS understandable that ccp announce something like this at this time that has to do with people spending even more money to be able to play their computer game!!
WTF is that ?
It's more economic for CCP to just have to pay for the development of one client instead of two.
That is both true and not.. IF you loose income it will NOT be profitable..
But that is obvious, is'nt it.. ;)

This, and the fact that a cheap videocard with SM2 or even 3 support costs VERY little. If you can't afford it, you probably don't really afford EVE in the first place. That's just how it is with a platform in constant development, such as the PC. Some things grow too old, and you can't expect everyone to wait for you to catch up.
Where on theese pages did you miss that many of us are playing on laptops? |

Take me for an example... I have 4 accounts that i happily pay for every month, and I always take my laptop with me where ever I go. I ALWAYS play eve... (oki.. a bit ******ed, but hey! )
If I have to buy a new computer, I won't be able to play this game anymore.. and that is hard cash from just one person..

Most. Though it's the same story there, really. If it's a laptop remotely developed to at least have a concept of games, it probably supports SM2. If not, I'm sorry, but I'm still glad they're moving on, ensuring more and better content in the future.
"Moving on??" .. why not get things fixed before moving on... ;)

OH yes I know you think that!! what if people stop playing the game instead of upgrading ???
its not that hard to add and up and understand how the RL works
People need to eat and pay their bills and extra stuff such as eve comes second
in bad times what do you really think people do cut subscription to a computer game or cut their milk,food expences.
That can have a nasty effect on eve as well so there is NO room for stupid announcements that say oh HEY you need to upgrade your computer to continue play our game maybe... that not clever to tell subscribers that has to eat like the rest of the RL word!!
Agree totally...
