PaddyPaddy Nihildarnik Gallente aurorae pacificas	Posted - 2009.02.14 15:13:00 - [31] Originally by: Nikita Alterana most of the footage didn't really flow, I've seen player videos, namely this one where the videos flow much better Who the hell did that video- that was brilliant! Up there with the best ive seen in eve.
5pinDizzy	Posted - 2009.02.14 15:16:00 - [32] Edited by: 5pinDizzy on 14/02/2009 15:17:55 Translation of intro : There are more paths to make money then catering to the hardcore pvp crowd. Flattering them should work. If you liked World of Warcraft, you will survive Eves darkest days... IF you liked World of Warcraft, you will become rich beyond your dreams... IF YOU liked World of Warcraft, the possibilities are endless...

PaddyPaddy Nihildarnik Gallente aurorae pacificas	Posted - 2009.02.14 15:18:00 - [34] Thought it was a bit short too, and like most I miss the backstory. The other poster who said this should roll out just before creating a new char is bang on imo. The original vid should stay to allow for backstory- even if you touch it up maybe... please... BTW CCP, the best video you ever produced was "Eve Never Fades". All of your others while good really dont stack up that well against some of the player content.
Johli Caldari AWE Corporation Intrepid Crossing	Posted - 2009.02.14 15:23:00 - [35] It's a goddamned trailer. Why would you put a trailer as the intro?
Aloriana Jacques Amarr Royal Amarr Institute	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:05:00 - [36] Originally by: Johli It's a goddamned trailer. Why would you put a trailer as the intro? Quoted for truth. It sucks as an intro, but works as a trailer. The flow is horrid, it doesn't tell us any backstory anymore, and otherwise leaves us in the dark about what the EVE-verse is. Just saying "You can do x, y, and z!" is not an intro. An intro tells story, gives you information, draws you into the world. This will not do. - - - Aloriana Jacques - Skill Sheet
Razin The xDEATHx Squadron Legion of xXDEATHXx	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:14:00 - [37] Sux donkey balls. This better be a fake. ...
BiggestT Caldari Resurrection Skunk-Works	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:15:00 - [38] Originally by: jam6549 didnt like it, previous was far far better imo! I agree tbh. For such a huge expansion the video wasnt as impressive as say empyrean age or quantum rise. Alot of replays of old stuff, the best bit was the end, though I wld kinda prefer I higher focus on t3 and wormholes besides that one juicy flick. The whole "choose your destiny and become great, you special pilot" has been done in many other trailers, this one would suit more of an exploration speech, the unknowns of space etc. EVE history t2 precisions
Korerin Mayul	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:18:00 - [39] i liked it; more 'intro' then 'backstory' but thats what the noobs need.
Sirial Soulfly	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:24:00 - [40] It was hugely pixelated, possibly due to the bik format ?

ceaon Gallente	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:25:00 - [41] nice intro 11/10 btw recruit more players in your corp/alliance and tell your enemy to make the same thing and you get more players in low sec and 0.0
Dr Resheph Amarr YOU ARE NOW READING THIS LOUDLY	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:39:00 - [42] This was pretty crap, the old one was basic but at least it did the job much better. Why is the main message of EVE shifting from "you're a nobody, but here are some tools and opportunities" to "you're a god lawl"
mcnuggetlol Amarr Outlandish Operations	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:41:00 - [43] Id like to see the old intro remade with ingame graphics and that new woman's voice. That'd be pretty cool to see.
Razin The xDEATHx Squadron Legion of xXDEATHXx	Posted - 2009.02.14 17:43:00 - [44] This old trailer gave the same message in a much more entertaining and EVE-like way. It's infinitely better than what's planned for this expansion. ...

If this is a part of the much-touted "NPE", then it's about time to scuttle the whole idea… Zero introduciton to the world and its history (this video). Forcing new players to do nothing but train learning skills (less SP/double-speed learning) Increasing the gap between new players and veterans (attribute respec). Quite honestly: WTF, CCP?! ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki
Josehpine	Posted - 2009.02.14 18:20:00 - [46] lets see what we got: new intro: got some nice graphics, tho quality is too low atm, old intro: has an epic story to tell well since STORY >>> GRAPHICS the old one is clearly the better one. Reminds me of the old days of computer games, when people spent thinking about good stories for games, not how they can improve graphics. (FF3 here i come ...)

Edit: For an awesome trailer CCP should redo the above trailer with new graphics and new music and keep the old voiceover. wow, didnt know that one, thats also great, and much smarter told than the new intro. Tho it wouldnt be a nice intro, but its a really good trailer.
midge Mo'yb Antares Shipyards	Posted - 2009.02.14 18:41:00 - [50] old intro > New intro... this should be played when the player enters the station for the first time, as someone suggested earlier, the old backstory video was better tbh... -----------------------------------------------

Amerilia	Posted - 2009.02.14 18:48:00 - [51] They should get the old intro before making their char, and the new one when they enter the world. I think that would be good.
Elenath Gallente Bluebird Capital Management	Posted - 2009.02.14 18:49:00 - [52] A trailer for an intro? /confuzled
Kyoko Sakoda Caldari Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2009.02.14 19:12:00 - [53] Originally by: AlleyKat On a side note, the quality of the playback is dreadful - and I'm not talking about the youtube upload, I'm talking when you watch it through the eve client - it's really poor and pixelated. I believe this has to do with Bink resampling for your screen resolution which is larger than the 720p video. It might be using nearest-neighbor interpolation which gives you the blocky visual and generally poor quality. Eve Radio - Playing Music To The Masses!
TimMc Gallente Extradition	Posted - 2009.02.14 19:24:00 - [54] Its nice and direct, good for telling the player what this world is like. However I liked having the RP story intro.
Vora Dumem Gallente	Posted - 2009.02.14 19:49:00 - [55] "Intro" comes from "Introduction"... The new trailer is but a fine commercial, but never an introduction to the world of EVE. The old intro needs an overhaul badly, agreed, but then make a new one in the sense of "introduction"... . . Very funny Mr. Scott, now beam down our clothes...
Florio Federal Defence Union	Posted - 2009.02.14 20:23:00 - [56] really cool :D i love the way it's more specific about the routes to power. the voiceover isn't too hot though.
Deviana Sevidon Gallente Panta-Rhei Guardian Federation	Posted - 2009.02.15 00:11:00 - [57] The new Intro leaves the backstory fluff out and no, this is not a good thing. I would have prefered an upgrade to the old intro.
Ris Dnalor Minmatar Ex Cruoris Libertas	Posted - 2009.02.15 04:13:00 - [58] yea. the new intro is the worst one so far. very sad. CCP should've never agreed to a deadline. They don't do well with deadlines.
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2009.02.15 04:23:00 - [59] Originally by: Vora Dumem "Intro" comes from "Introduction"... The new trailer is but a fine commercial, but never an introduction to the world of EVE. The old intro needs an overhaul badly, agreed, but then make a new one in the sense of "introduction"... well no, it introduces the player to WHO he is. but not WHERE he is. I honestly don't understand what people mean by not an intro. it's introducing you the world of eve that the old intro leaves out. I mean sure the old intro is great at telling the back story, but the players doesn't even know he can clone himself. He doesn't KNOW what it means to be a pilot, what a pod pilot really means. However the new one is not good ether. they are BOTH bad. one is needed to say "hey you are freaking imortal goes nuts!" and another intro needs to say "welcome to what eve is. honestly why isn't the old intro shown the player apon tutorial completion? hell other way around, you start the game, and you get "this is eve" and then you do the tutorial and get another video "this is who YOU are in eve" or something, but both are heavily needed. even though based on skill changes and bloodline changes, ccp don't care about race anymore. all characters are equal. which while good, like the new trailer is not good. CCP get it in the middle PLEASE.
Qordel Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2009.02.15 05:33:00 - [60] Let me guess, it's just a bunch of static images with voice-overs. --
