The conclusion would be that the expansion made the game worse,  something is not right here.

 

I do hope, as someone said earlier in this thread, that you review EVE after Apocrypha.

I'm looking into it, but I think the change in rating from 8.5 to 9.0 is an error. Generally, expansion review scored don't alter overall ame review scores.

 

Yeah don't lower Eves overall score, Eve is still the best MMO on the market for players that don't want a WoWish experience.

Good Review
As to the guy who only ever looks at Icons

To quote a fairly popular EVE saying:
"You're doing it wrong"

And, yes please, get a better graphics card before you do any more screenshots... those are pathetic... I get better graphics on my laptop!

there are still alot of disenfranchised people that are still not subscribed waiting for content that would allow casual non-pvp players to thrive and enjoy the eve universe also.

and from what ive read so far about this new wormhole space that is just going to basicly be a psuto instanced version of 0.0 where non pvpers like haulers and miners will be donating their hard earned ships to the first pirates into the new system.

I also hear if too much mass goes through the wormhole  you can basicly become traped with no bases or way to refit or resupply that means lazers will be the only realistic weapon as all others require ammo  and ships need a scanner probe to have any possibility of escaping other than maby self distruct.

over all this sounds very poorly thought out,, even star trek DS9 the wormhole wasnt considered valuable till it was deemed reasonably stable 

I was considering resubscribing  but  doing the same old mining and trading I was doing a year ago  is almost painful just to remember.  let alone getting my unarmed ships ganked by every dumbass looking for an easy kill   or getting war declared destroying all non-pvp corps by forcing them to sit in stations unable to play for the duration of the "war"  this leaves me to have a very poor view of EVE developers... even ower than SONY developers  (and thats REALLY LOW.)

WoW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You put CCP a company that actually listens to its playerbase, a company that gives us the only god damn game with any type of freedom in this terrible mmo market lower then SoE?????

A company that overnight destroyed one of the best mmos ever created and then slammed loyal fans on G4tv after? SoE is adding in cash shops to good MMOs like EQ and EQ2.

Can you be anymore of a troll? 

listens to its playerbase, a company that gives us the only god damn game with any type of freedom..

when that player base is bias and corupted because the only "players" that can stand to be around pvp jerks is OTHER PVP JERKS  sure the are the occasional players that eek out non-pvp game play,, there the ones helping to overload high sec space.

but for the most part the mijority player that can stand the foul stench there are other pvpers and pvp corps

so ya to you they listen to the player base.. that is why they are still a dinky little nitch game with only 50k peak online  many of which are farming alts. or worse tournament cheater spys.

all of the expansions ive seen are for the most part, have the pvper in mind or the pvp oriented corp

there is no expansion so far that makes thecasual non-pvper enjoyment of eve better

want a few sugestions?

1. a functioning courier system that isnt screwing over the hauler every way from sunday  that doesnt require a 50 million bond on a 10k cargo into a low sec zone where they gank the hauler for the bond.

2. much more interesting mining system where miners can find more interesting things than the same old ore rocks.

3 a trade system that is much more dynamic and functioning (trade goods like oil and rocket fuel and water)

a way to sort all low sec runs off the courier list  

much better interaction for courier loads   a way to sort loads by weight and bond requirements

much better courier missons loads  like hauling 1 marine unit  is pathetic  a real misson would be hauling 5000 marines and their tanks and arty   that would be planetary defence!

its like creating a world where there are no laws at all even against  against murderers and child molesters would you want to live in such a world? I guess you can call the people that want to escape such atrocities refugees of eve

Eve is a pvp game. CCP listens to its pvp community.

Pve is getting a revamp, march Xpac already helps new players and revamps missioning.

A mining revamp is not to far off and yes CCP has already said they werent happy with the contract courier system.

I understand your frustrated with the pvp community but give me a break with the "lower then SoE" comment. that was a terrible comment about a developer that actually delivers a good game.

You want more PVe options and fuctionality its coming, relax.

im suprised that someone hasnt thrown a shoe at them

i actually like some aspects of eve but since release its like some demented psyco has been in charge of eve content and puppy beatings.

and since there is no similar scifi game its all thats available.

every 6 months to a year i come back to see if the game has finally did away with their "old game expirence"

i dont want it to be another WOW either but this insane obsesson with canabalistic caustic PVP is seriously crippling EVE  no joke! just go check out the forums at star trek online all the eve refugee disenfranchised players... of course STO was going to loose some to startrek fans  but there loosing just as many because of EVEs pvp policy.

CCP needs to update the misson system  and the courier sytem  and the mining system  and add in some iteresting content to the universe  the universe has a prety backdrop but you cant do anything with the planets and there are no comets or nebuas or cosmic strings or mini black holes,, what ever to make the universe an interesting and fun place to explore.

mainly i like to relax most of the time when i play so I prefer to mine and do some hauling or trading.. id love to haul other players goods  but the courier system is so flawed its effectivly a joke.. the players that could haul cant afford 5-50 million for a bond,, if they could afford that they wouldnt be hauling... and there is no method for distributed or proportioned hauling like yu would do for 20 million m3 of ore it needs to be more reliable than ups or usmail  it could be a whole section of gameplay  but it languishes in dissfunction.

as for planets  they could have different types o outposts, city sizes, factories or agriculture   each planet would have fairly constant demands and products  and the occasional civil war or insurection  you dont have to land on planets to do this  just have something similar to a station interface.

id also have other outposts like solar power stations or  ship graveyards/battlesites.

these are just a few of the ideas ve sugested over the years.
