I was always afraid tto try eve.  Alsways told if you join now, you won't get anywhere because it's been out so long.  Man, I am never listening to people.  I should of just tried it myself back then.  I wouldn't of wasted money on all those themepark boring MMOs.  I love the control of the game.  And real time skill learning is awesome.  So this is my new game.  If you haven't tried it, go for it.  It's not as hard to learn as I thought it would be.

 

 

QFT.  Eve is the only MMO that I always come back to.  It is just the best there is, and the only one that is worth the sub.

If you take your time with the tutorials and let all of that info sink in, it will all come clear to you quick enough.

The greatest mistake a lot of new players make, is jumping into the game wanting a battleship and to kill everything that moves on their first day. :)

Join a corp.

Incarna was nearly the death of eve. CCP done the right thing by shelving it.

Eve is a space game all about space ships, and a awful lot of eve players don't want this to change, I don't want this to change.

There is a bucket load of MMO's out there were you can dress up your character and take them for a walk, and thank God, eve is not one of them.

Things seem to have become much better with the release of the Crucible update and CCP returning to the basics of eve.

Over all I have noticed a increase in new players and interest in the game.

I have one 21 day trial left.

When/if the player subs to the game, makes the account active. I will give them 250 million isk to get them started.

PM me with your email address and I will get the trial account invite sent out to you.

I voted for Eve simply because it's the best MMO there is, at this present time.  Nothing else comes close.

I too have noticed a large influx of new players

Strange, I don't think that even Trion have a clue to when it's suppose to start. :)

Yes, changed it twice still cannot get in.  What is going on?

Well, would have been really nice to know what time they were letting us in...

Yeah, they could have give us some sort of  idea.  Shoddy PR, thats what this is. :)

When does the free period start, anyone know?

Yeah, it's a strange one is SWTOR.  

I started off loving it, thought I would be playing it for a long while.   But after the first few weeks, the bordom kicked in big time.  Now you couldn't get me to play it even if you held a gun to my head.

Uninstalled and forgotten.

 

Same here.

 

Back to RIFT with a single-month sub.

 

Also checking EVE with the 14 days Trial and until now it feels like a really really good game. Lets see :)

You can't go wrong with either of those, both are very good games.  I am back on Rift myself.  Think I may take advantage of the free time/lower sub, when subbing for more than a month.

I think Rift used to do their patches / maintenance around 4am / 5am uk time which was when most of the US had gone to bed, and it would finish before most Europeans were out of bed. I could be wrong.

 

That's it......I am going back to Rift. At least they think about their customers. ;)

It's not on, taking a full day of play away from EU customers each week.

I love the story also, but it does seem to get watered down a lot, as you progress through the levels.
