Very interesting. But I don't really see it as being news worthy =/ |

... because giving up when the going gets tough is the best business strategy? BS... |

What is YOUR experience with Entropia Universe?
General Discussion « Entropia Universe 2/04/11 9:21:42 AM
I heard about the game in a local magazine, but it was not till much later that I decided to try it out... The day was February the 14th 2007, the time was 5:45 WAST, I had just finished downloading the client (took ages to download on my old pc) and began installing it, the installation process was nothing to speak about, just wish there was some nice background artwork or something... No matter... So I logged in that Evening... Since there was no extensive manual, of any kind, I had no idea whatsoever of what to do, the guides I kept hearing people mention were fairly helpful, they taught me a few things (which should have been covered by a manual of some kind) as did my soon to be mentor... Much later... I met my mentor, Alexandros Kingsize Phenomenon, or Alex as I called him, In the quiet town of Port Atlantis after a rather non-profitable sweat trip... He would give me advice that would help... After receiving the advice of my Mentor (Alex), I took up hunting and made some money that way, but it was not long before I needed to learn about this thing called "Skill Increase Bonus"... I found the information I needed from Alex and from that old gem, Entropia Forum, which later became Planet Calypso Forum. Much, much later... I had been a member of several societies (In other games, these would be called "Guilds", "Clans", or "Factions"), my first one was Second Life Anonymous, but due to the inactivity of the society and it's members, I eventually defected to the (Now Defunct) society Australianz Rules. Sometime in July... Eventually I joined the Society known as 'The Knights of Calypso', I would join following a friend by the name of Tony Rocketfingers, who I have not seen in some time. I am now a Captain of the Knights, something achieved after my old mentorship program and other activities. Eventually, After much money, blood, sweat, broken guns and tears, I graduated from my Discipleship with flying colours, Alex didn't get anything special out of it, but he gave me a truckload (more like a few, I die alot ) of Fast Aid Packs, which I still have today in my storage on Calypso. I participated in the WoF 2008 and 2009, representing Australia, which was fun, except for the deaths... (I have come back and left many times, racking up over 1000 hours of playtime, with my avatar now surpassing my previous blog posting. Has almost unlocked a few more hidden skills) My profits weren't much to speak of... Yes its possible to make money, not a lot of money I made a whopping 15 cents playing the way countless people have recommended... Anyhoo... My avatar is worth more than that though, If I was to sell out now I'd at least get 1k or more for my trouble. That said, I'm taking a break from the game due to persistant login issues, and missing item bugs. I would like to return, but if I did, it would be as a non-depositor.

While it would be nice, I doubt the tight-arses at MindArk would ever consider it. |

I had a similar issue, only with 3 skill chips a couple of months ago... Still isn't resolved |

I've said... Many things about things about this game in the 4 years I've been playing it. But it saddens me to see that some people still haven't learned to be VERY careful in a virtual world backed by a real world economy... |

Thriller: Planet Michael to join the Entropia Universe. Don't Stop Till You Get Enough

I seriously hope that Micheal's father has had nothing to do with this, but then he was trying to flog off royalties at the funeral >.> |

First Planet Corp turns Borg, assimilates Entropiaforum
General Discussion « Entropia Universe 9/20/10 8:13:50 PM
Not exactly thrilled with this information. But I guess it could work. As long as FPC can indeed take the criticism that they say they can, and not be like MA who closed the original official forum, most likely because of it, then I am slightly happier. :-P |

Now you know why I dislike EF :-P |

About time, I remember them being mentioned as far back as 2005? (Though I didn't create my account till Jan '07 and play till Feb '07) |

Calypso implements a newbie zone! Revamps the entire newbie experience!

It's a good start, for sure :) |

Knowledge is power. The more you know, the better off you'll be inside the game. At least in my experience... |

There's not much I can add to this thread, other than what I've posted in others in a similar vein... But all I will say at this point is, give it a shot. Don't go in with unrealistic expectations, don't expect much at all. Don't feel pressured into depositing, and don't let the scrolling ja... (err, globals) put you off. Look for the guides ingame for assistance, as well as Alice's lovelly beginner guide on entropiaforum.com Anyhoo, I'm going to insert an ad here: Stay tuned for an in-depth review of Entropia Universe/Planet Calypso, both pre and post VU, from someone with over 2.5 years & 2000 hours of experience in both audio visual and text formats, to be posted on major gaming websites (inc. this one) , my blog, with the video version to go on google video and/or youtube. It also may not necessarily be a positive review, either ;-) Anyhoo, have fun and good gaming. - Nytewolf |
