Take away the three quality Ore system and let us turn ore into Dense, regular or whatever by completing certain tasks while mining.

Like if you perfectly avoid high temps and stability issues you get Dense Veld.

For the love of god I can't see how staring at a rock for hours on end is fun.

Mining has to be the one mechanic in eve thats totally borked (along with the bounty system maybe).

To the OP, Yes you can make good isk mining. Should you? please don't your eyeballs will bleed and you will die of boredom.

 

Edit: I would also like to add that they need to get rid of that lame Right click>find roid field feature.

Give all the mining ships a scanning function to find roid fields put a little exploration in the bastard and imo if you have to keep the right clicl roid option make all those roids only have low quality ore.

Sorry im getting to amped up on this mining thing it just pisses me off that mining is so lame in this game when everything else in Eve has been improved in someway. I'm sorry adding in the Orca did not fix the lame mining mechanic in eve.

i would tend to agree with that, but when you have to mine enough to refine 10-20 million trit. i would not like to spend that much time trying to tweak the miner so i get dense or concentrated. put some drones out pick up a book or homework and there you go. Have a peak at it once every 10 -15 minutes to empty the cargo.

Yuck I hate Afk miners!

They need to put an Afk function into the game. If a miner is afk for more than 5 mintues a fleet of sleepers shows up and blows you to hell.

Why play if you going to be watching TV or reading a book while playing a MMO?

Well if im not playing my MMOs or one of my 360 games I'm playing CS:S or Starcraft.

I don;t have the best computer graphics wise so I would rather just play games like fallout 3 or Mass Effect on the 360 even if I do miss out on the player created DLC.

Atari 2600

I remember playing Combat with my uncle for days.

I was a pvper even then lol.

Notice how people who have taken their time reviewing it don't spit out 2/10 in a few hours of playtime like eurofagger.

 

 

 

 

 

Actually, I'm "noticing" that:

A) No one has ever heard of this "review" site

 and

B) They haven't reviewed *any*  other games.

 

Sorry, but by the evidence, it's a bogus review by a bogus site.

 

 

If AV would grow some balls they could have a free trial so we all could see how the game is ourselves.

But they sux so people are forced to look at these bogus sites for info.

To be honest, raid content was the same then as it is now, only difference is obviously it was harder to find 39 fuckwits to run around with for 4 hours than it is to find 24 fuckwits to run around with for 2 hours. The only real difference is that AQ40 and Naxx were a real challenge for even the best raid guilds, so scrubb guilds that could get 40 people to raid had no chance of getting anything done wother than endlessly wiping on trash. Nope, if you're a raid focused player, be glad you've got WotLK

 

It was no where close to the same DURRRR!! Raiding is too easy now in WotLK..... A full BRD run took more effort then 25 Naxx. Only bads hated vanilla, because there wasn't pugs or BGs to carry you to epics.

Un, no. A LOT of people hated vanilla WOW and the raids associated with it. I ran a hardcore raiding guild on Blackhand for a long time at launch and it was the most miserable experience of my gaming career.

People do not remember the issues and problems that the 40 man raids presented and what it took to make them successful. We were good at what we did, came from EQ and were a known raiding guild there too and the WOW 40 mans ripped the guild apart at the seams. Some real life friends are no longer friends because of the crap that occurred. It made the game feel like work and a job and it was anything but fun.

Don't get me wrong, I love a challenge and I love conquering hard content. The problem with the initial raids were that it was the only content and once the repetitive factor set in, it became painful. Maybe Blizzard has gone too far focusing on the casual and easier content but I have no problem with that simply because there is no way in hell I would go back to 40 man raids and re-play what went on at launch.

 

^ that's how i know you're lying.... no one would continue to play a game if you're having a miserable time. KTYBYE

You are wrong. It was miserable and the reason I did it was because I was the GM of the guild. You know, I was responsible and made decisions for the guild and tried to make it as fun as possible....something mature adults do.

After about 8 months, I left and went Horde and played there since then.

But you answered your own question. Yes it was miserable and yes we did continue to play because that was all we had to play in WOW. I loved the game and I loved playing the game. But I hated the raiding aspect and hated the hardcore aspect. It didn't work then and it won't work now.

Next time, read people's comments before trying to look cool with some smart-ass reply. You might learn something.

 

Nah. See you're still not making any sense. Why do something (esp during ur free time) that you don't enjoy?!

Because WoW is crack and he was addicted.

I also had a simular experience being the Main tank of my guild, having to run raid content 6 hours a night 6 days a week for near three years.

This is why Endgame is the devil.

I don't hate EVE, just don't know they could make a game out of spreadsheet and people would pay for it. thta's it.  Not a big deal.

 

It's not a damn spread sheet.

Try some pvp, some player corp politics get your ass out of the mining ship and stop trading.

And no unlike every other MMO Eve is the one an only game that's a life simulation.

Sounds kind of strange but that's how MMO's were intended to be.

Ask around how serious this simulation is, this isn't WoW we have a game world that evolves and changes through our actions.

You people that spout bullshit like "eve is a spreadsheet" or "Eve is a sci-fi wallpaper" are idiots and only do it to sway possible new players away from this game and toward your single player Co-op wannabe of an MMO.

 

 

Dude, you need to chill the eff out.

 

I've played EVE since 2004, and I am CEO of a guild that is over 4 years old.

 

That said, this review made me laugh my ass off because even I can admit that a lot of it it true. lol

Of course it's funny, shit I laughed my ass off when I saw this a few months ago.

But the sad people that use this as troll bait bug me.

Yeah i agree if you never talk to anyone, stay in a Npc corp and just mine veld in high sec the guy is spot on lol.

But thats like playing WoW until level 5 and making a review never doing a dungeon, never grouping and never accessing a talent tree.

You would have to be an idiot to totally think that's what eve is all about.

I find Eve's UI refreshing compared to MMOs that use the same old action bar/mini map setup.

I like the UI so much if CCP decided to revamp the UI and turn it more MMO like I would consider a long vacation from EVE.

Sure it takes some time to learn how to use but its not "Bad" just different.

  The could use some steamlining, but yea why fix what isn't broke.

I like the UI very much and while I would hate a total revamp I wouldnt mind a easier to read Fleet UI, more choice in font selection size and maybe a drone UI change.

Nothing big I actually like the Chat box, overview, map screen, scanning UI and the Cap hud/module buttons.

Oh good, Salvatoris is back and he brought friends.

The second account figure I've seen was more like 5% of accounts are second accounts, still doesnt change the fact that EVE is still growing, still getting better. Not bad for a 5 year old game.

I do find that eve review quite funny, and thats good because thats yhatzee's job, to make people laugh. If he wanted to actually review the game he should have tried PvP and joining a corp because really thats where the game is. Its like playing WoW and refusing to kill any mobs.

Most of these haters are Eve trial rejects or players that support worthless sci-fi MMOs like JGE or BP that will fail totally.

Yep, eve keeps growing and evolving and it pisses these guys off.

They post the same bullshit review like it actually means anything, it's sad really.

We've seen this BS review about ten times on this forum.

Use your internet skills and do a search on the forums and you will find the threads devoted to this  comedian.

The guy is just joking around for a reaction, if you take his review seriously you're a moron.

They need to come down harder on these punk ass pirates.

 

Hey now...sometimes people enjoy making backups of their games in the case the game somehow becomes unplayable...and i know for a fact, that after owning an xbox for years, there were issues with the first couple batches that scratched your games to death...in which case, a backup would help.

 

But, in order to play the backups, modding must happen...Its a lopsided subject here..sure its bad, but there is SOMETIMES good in it also...not always, but sometimes.

Oh stop, people don't burn 360 games to make back ups.

They burn them and use a program to play any 360 game they want for free even through xbox live.

It's time for people to take game piracy seriously, people need to start doing real time for this stuff.

I know in reality its tough to stop completly but putting a few guys behind bars may stop a few.

Look at the effect piracy has on PC gaming, Studios like the one that made awesome games like World of goo have gone bankrupt due to 90% of the players enjoying thier game just stole it.

Companies like EA wont release games like Madden on PC because of theft.

I can go on and on, people that pay for their videogames suffer because pirate assholes can't afford games and just steal shit.

People bitch and moun that more companies go the Microsoft Games for windows route with anti-piracy software but what choice do those companies have?

These pieces of shit steal everything millions if not billions of games pirated yearly have gamers suffering through crappy anti-piracy software and people in the gaming industry lose thier jobs due to a increase of theft.

It's serious, one day I hope internet and video game piracy puts people away for life then maybe assholes will stop trying to ruin it for the rest of us that actually pay and support our favorit game development studios.

I'm suprised you guys approve of theft, it's pretty sick.

Best: Ryzom, it's like someone took the most helpful mmo players and dropped them in one game world.

Worst: WoW, It's like someone took every immature asshat and put them in one game.

With so many good games I find it hard to pick one Ps1 game out of the truely awesome games.

FF7, RE2, MGS, Crash2, GT2, Sotn, FFtactics, SFalpha3, Tekken and many, many more.

My personal pick would have to be Castlevania:SotN.

That game imo brought back the oldschool gaming feel to a much needed 3d infested gaming period.

Part hack n slash, part Rpg it was fantastic. I even repurchased this game on the Xbox live arcade, it still holds up to todays games.

So what game did you like most and why?

This is why I actually buy my god damn games.

They need to come down harder on these punk ass pirates.

That's bullshit the biggest thing for me is backward compatability.

Seriously Ps3 has near no games to play that I can't already enjoy on my 360 if they took away my Ps2 library It would be totally worthless!

I refuse to buy a console that doesn't that doesn't support backwards compatibility.

While I never buy a game while it's new this demo was really interesting and even has me almost breaking my console rule of waiting until a price drop.

Usually ill wait 6+ months for the game to drop to 39 or 29 bucks.

I'll agree this is one of the first batman games done right since the very first batman platformer back on the Nes lol.

On a side note...

Just got the red rings of death today AGAIN on my Xbox360.  This # 4 and I've only had this Elite for six months!  GG Microsoft FTL!!!

<off topic>

that blows I havent seen many people complaining about the red ring since the new arcade and elite consoles releases its down to under .5% possiblilty of getting that.

Microsoft will probably just replace it for free.

How often do you play? I personally only get maybe 2-3 hours at the most of straight through gameplay.

Xbox360 is like any other PC if you play for 10+ hours straight  sooner or later your going to burn out something.

I p[lay in moderation and while I understand Red ring could be frustrating Ps3 just isnt worth the purchase since Xbox exclusives destroy that system (only reason to play a Ps3 is MGS4,Killzone2 and Infamous, three games dont warrent a purchase lol), so i'll take my chances with the Red ring.

Hope it get fixed for you.
