Is this game still played? Last time I checked servers it was something around 20 players online.. Is it always like that? I was thinking of trying it but since it's not really Massively Multiplayer I have doubts.

yea there are usually 30-50 online but at late times it usually goes down to 20ish. The game is not being advertised because of devs dont want it to be yet but hopefully soon enough they will.

Nice to see all 3 factions are fairly balanced in terms of players :)

Played this game for a while a couple of years ago, I loved it, but theres only ever a handful of players online (not enough to call the game an MMO, usually less people on than you get on an average FPS game server).

They need to start advertising soon or the game will look to dated to actually attract people.  With competition like Infinity on the way, VO could be overshadowed before anyone even knows about it.

and to think, today on EVE there was over 30,000 online at the same time.

 

I tried Vendetta and it's solid gameplay, but a bit too cartoony for my taste. It did run nice and smooth for me though.

EVE beats it hands down. If only the smooth fps gameplay of vendetta was mixed with the complexity of EVE.

yea but EVE and VO are totally different games. How many people in eve do you talk to out of that 30,000 though? Some people say how many people there are in EVE and its funny because a lot of the time you directly interact with more people in VO than some do in eve.

Well playing both I can say interacting with people in EVE is up to you.

If your just a cearbear grinding missions solo to make cash then yea you don't have to interact.

I was in a large alliance where interaction was a huge part of your game day. Large fleets. Mining op's. Corps and alliances rely on interaction to function.

It just depends on what you want to do. No way can you compair the community interaction for EVE's community is very large.

Maybe I am missing something but how does more people equal more fun? MMO does not mean alot of people it indicates a persistent world that more than one person can enter, just because there are only 20 to 30 does not make it any less an MMO than a game that has 20,000 to 30,000. I feel that WoW has set an artificially high standard for game population by which many people judge the worth of a game. Just because EVE has more people doesn't mean it is the better game. Maybe it is but making that statement based on population is a very limited assesment.
