MMORPG.com is at EVE FanFest, and here on the last day, the developers have released a great deal of new information about the future of the game. Rather than making you wait until we have time to write an in-depth article (which we will in the coming days), we wanted to bring you this hastily put-together overview of what we have learned.

When we released our information on Walking on Stations earlier in the week, we promised you that there would be a number of new and exciting announcements coming out of this year’s FanFest. Today, in a two hour presentation, the folks from CCP have dropped a number of intriguing announcements in our collective laps.

While I am still at the convention center and the event and announcements are continuing to roll out, I wanted to take a few minutes to update you on what we now know about the future of the sci-fi sandbox MMO.

We already know that the company’s winter expansion, Quantum Rise will launch this Tuesday, and so I’ll save more specifics on that for a time when I have a chance to write. Instead, I’m just going to give you a few bullet points to keep you up to speed:

Check out the Breaking News direct from EVE Fanfest.

Great News - cant wait ^^

FIXED LINK

Damn, looks like I won't be playing any of the other new games coming out next year.

It was a photo finish, and unfortunately we lost and the laptop battery died before we could post the link. 

The link should work properly now.

OMG! planetary flight

If these guys add a ground game to Eve i'll never have to play another MMO.... ever!

Great time to be a Eve player, so many good features coming in the near future.

This game has limitless possibilities and in my opinion that's the way it should be in every mmo.

Been playing EVE since 2006 now. It's the only MMO that's kept me this long, and I don't plan on leaving any time in the foreseeable future.

Walking in Stations, Atmospheric flight, quests, customizable Tech 3 ships (mmmmm... lem'me wipe the drool, LOL), it all sounds tasty to me, :)

Other MMO-owners could seriously take a lesson from CCP.

Offer something different and reap the benefits of one of the most dedicated player base ever.

Keep it coming CCP, I'll be here waiting, :) :)

Just wondering how you can loath what has been done to it?  It is a far better game today than it was, I can't imagine anyone disagreeing with that either.  It is still a very harsh universe.  If your favorite fotm configuration got changed, that is just too bad, it is called balance.

Hey I am a new player and i like the game alot I just find it hard to find a good community and vent using corps u guys no of

NEW PLAYERS STAY AWAY FROM EVE ONLINE!

unless you like free for all PVP because you will begin to getting ganked within hours of starting eve

non-pvpers are just blood in the water to the pvp gankers that harass you and destroy your ships that may take you weeks to buy.

most non-pvpers get fustrated and cancel in just a few months and there are no large non-pvp guilds  if a non-pvp guild gets too large they get war declared on them and become fare game 24/7  this means you either become pvp  or you sit in a station doing nothing for a week (if not more) or you cancel and go to another game where you can play in relative peace.

eve is still a very nitch game that is why they have so few subscribers

STARTREK ONLINE will get more subscribers on their first day than eve has

this new ship construction thing is a direct responce to STO ship system

the wormholes will really only be for PVPers because they will destroy anyone else that isnt a pvp template like them and you can never catch up  you will be stuck with the same noob universe that hasnt changed since release.

EVE looks prety but the universe is dead and boring and the quests are as fun as a tax audit.

some day maby the icelandic brain will thaw out and they will realize how bad they are messing up (not as bad as sony but prety bad)

save your money and wait for STO.

lol, baby sitting.just out of beta it was a free for all.you could take someone out and actually have a chance to out run ccp.People would actually use ccp to gank other players by tricking them into firing on you putting some outside the box thinking into the game.Not now you are dead if you mess with them..At one time I'd almost maxed all my time skills,And of course its impossible now. I just fill that combat has been taken out of the players hands and made a statistic.These are just some of my peaves and I dont expect others to agree.There are more but I'm just not willing to take the extra time to share, although I've answered them all in questionares sent to me . I rarely answer back so this will be my last post .But this game is always been close to my heart.

Well I read this far and ignore the rest of the post since the baove statement shows the poster does not have a clue. My girl friend is sitting next to me right now. Has done a ton of serious trade and mission running, inlcuding low sec in the 3 months she has been playing. She has been in ZERO PVP action the whole time.

I am running a lot in border regions, sec ratings from 0.4 to 0.1 and have in the last 3 months with this new character seen zero PVP.

Eve does have a ton of PVP but to say you will get ganked as soon as you start is just flat a lie. Oh I am sure a SMALL percentage might have seen some nub attacking them early but a serious gank, sorry but I call BS.

Hehehe when a corp war decced a newebie corp I was in I had a lot of fun warping in firing once then warping out before they could even get a lock

According to Utube  this is EVE's atmospheric flight ..according to a guy that posted about the  video you dont actually see the atmospheric part of the demo until 1:20.

www.youtube.com/watch

that was an old concept prototype about 5-6 years old. They'll more and likely be doing the entire thing from scratch again.

Very nice, way to make me drool CCP.

Well, good for your gf, but, have her leave carebear space...if she is not ransomed/destroyed within 30 mintes...let me know. I have been out of carebear space 3 and only 3 times. Lost 2 drakes, and raven...will never play this game again. No, you can not have my stuff, and yes, I will be careful not to let the door hit me in the ass on way out.

Eve servers a purpose...keeps the psychopaths off the street...thank god for Eve.

You obviously missed the part where he said she was travelling in lowsec and he was running a lot of missions in 0.4-0.1 systems for months without getting attacked. Hmmm maybe you're spectacular powers or observation (or lack thereof) was the reason why you lost a ship everytime you ventured out of highsec.

So do you consider 0.2 carebear space? She flies in 0.2 and a 0.3 system most of the time right now. As for 0.0 well thats kind of a given. In fact in ANY MMO if you go to a specified PVP area it is a given. So are you suggesting she go to 0.0?

ALso the person I comment about had said within 30 minutes of beginning play. I really doubt you lost your ships that you listed within 30 minutes of beginning EVE, especially since I doubt you could fly them at that time.

Look you want to say 0.0 space is dangerous, well DUH! But to make a comment that the entire game is that way is a LIE.
