Hello there...

I'm one of those who have tried EVE several times but never really started a sub. Now with Dust coming i'm most interested in the EVE universe again. I do like the politics and all the players interaction. The only problem is that i have a short attention span with games, i often go to other game than back to the previous, never ending (regarding MMOs). 

Now with the GW2 coming and also new LOTRO interesting expansion i'll be palying both and was also planning to start EVE. 

does EVE requiere too much time to be fun/entertaining and to reach any goal ? I know the skill progression is real time based, but still you need money and etcs to play the game properly...

just for you to know, my thoughts are to start an explorer. Scan the universe for anomalies and earn money from that... maybe lvl up some combat abilities and some stealth stuff. EVE combat is not that fun, i wouldn't focus on that too much.

all indie sandbox developers go crazy listing features before release.

I never saw any of them delivering... in fact not even the mega hits in the Triple A market do it, there's always something unfinished or "to be released", something that was supposed to be ready in day 1.

I'm intersted in this game, but  very very cautious. Have you seen the video where the dev explain the siege mechanics ? man... the system itself is as complex as a whole game ! I don't think they can/will deliver that much with at least a playable game, its just too much for a NO BUDGET project (they are doing the game without investments, so the dev said in the kickstarter video). 

We don't need a second Mortal, a second Darkfall, a second Earthrise, a second Xsyon.... 

Idie sandbox developers think they can deliver a shity product just because they are "doing what we want, and have no money, poor dev :(".  

I'm tired of those excuses and find it odd that so many people keep supporting this kind of behavior at the same time they bash other games for being faulty.

I run Eve on my 32" HDTV at 1080p but then again I am sat in front of it LOL... as its on my computer desk :)

 

 

 

How good is it ?  how blind are you getting ? hehe

Maybe i'll get a 32" TV as monitor as well... how well the tv handles the text ? 

good to know !!

Maybe will try this hehe

Hello there,

I'm about to start playing EVE and  i was planning a HDTV for my gaming place , i  wonder if it's "possible" to play in it.

the "possible" is not techwise is just that EVE has very tinny font size and TVs  usually don't handle text in a good way.

The space might look very awsome in a big screen, though. 

Have you ever tried ? 

Men, don't you have any better reason to bitch about or go against ? Maybe some personal stuff, neighborhood, country, World... 

You bitch about so little, in this case you are bitching about a GOOD thing.

Devs are called out when they do nothing and now when they try something also...

I'm not a Rift player but its quite unique the effort Trion does to make a better game and add value to their subscribers, i'm yet to see a company in the Triple A market that does so much for their product. 

I don't follow that close Rift development but i do come here everyday and i often see news about Rift and their makings...

Now go get a life, use your time for something better.... this forums are sickenning.

i played as a bard for 1 month. The class is VERY awsome and you can solo with ease, you must know what you are doing though, the music systems is awsome.... you build your skills with music elements that has different effects. At higher lvls you can do very cool stuff with your music, for you and for your party. 

One of the best class i ever played in a MMO, can't wait the F2P so i can log in again.

i'd like a guest pass... if you can provide such i'll be greatful =)

We'll what do you expect? It's the first day of release and pretty much every game I've ever played on the initial day had issues.  Even with all the down time I managed to get to level 25 so it was not all bad.  I think I'm pretty close to the end of Act II.

Ratero.

Are you kidding me?

So it's ok that a huge company like Blizzard can't sort their launch issues out and can't even let their customers play a SINGLE PLAYER RPG because of server issues.

I really like the game and all, but anyone with half a brain can tell this whole situation is complete BS and shouldn't be considered standard behavior.

 

 

Basically... if you don't like the way Blizzard or any other company makes, runs or otherwise handles business surrounding their games.... DO NOT BUY THEM.  Nobody is forcing you to hand them $$$. 

 

I'm pretty sure they didnt said about rollbacks and server kicks/crashes.

So... we have all rights to complain. If you are ok with being screwd up and think others might too,  just don't complain. No one is forcing you.

some time ago, rollbacks were features of pirate servers and Indie mmos.

Now we have rollbacks in our Single player game...

Imagine you getting that awsome loot, then server crash or whatever, you are kicked from yoru own game (lol), when you come back you are just a second from the NPC that droped the Loot... now you kill it and get 10gold instead ! =D 

Awsome, Diablo 3 is just awsome ! You can't get more hardcore than that...

"Servers are down, you can't play your Single player game !" 

That's wierd... i'll be playing Diablo 3, but thats just not right IMO.

Copy WoW at release, Copy gw2 after release.

Why think, or be creative when you can just rip off games? 

Trion is like that 90 pound kid in highschool who tried to follow the jocks and take up weight training, couse he thought it would get him laid.

 

Trion is pathedic.

Trion is an Awsome company... they add value to their game like no other. 

And hey could you explain me how Blizzard works ? i'm quite sure they follow the same "copy and improve what its great" and look where they are !

Creativity is a good thing for games but delivery and improvements top that anyday. If you don't think so... look at Diablo 3 numbers.

Witch Doctor because i can't be a necro =( 

Then a Barbarian to crush you all.

the seems to be  bad, i could not get past the weapon choice when my rifle was shooting in a 90º angle. Sorry but i can't get past this... i understand if bullets follows my moving target, its necessary when you are using this type of combat but if i'm facing the wrong direction i must not be able to shoot at all.. unsles is a AoE skill or the combat system supports it. 

The animations are terrible, the jump is awful, combat feels spammy and has no weight to it. The shooting is not god at all, the story seems meh to me, the game got too long to start, this is a mmo not a single player, I'm ok with good story, i'm all for it, but the intro is way too long and tells too little. 

I can't get it... AoC is almost flawless graphics and animation wise, at least on those aspects AoC excels. How they screwd up that much with this game ?

The interface is very neat though, i really liked it feels like my Android. The skills system seems interesting. But thats all, maybe the story gets better and deeper...

AWWWWWWSOME NEWS !!!

Also, Blizzard is expanding its market.

They just Released WoW here in Brasil, with local prices (30 BRL for the starter pack, 14,99 BRL the sub but you can get a promotion for 12,99 BRL/month, fyi 1 BRL = 1,9 USD +-). So... WoW is one of the cheapest here and the only AAA MMO for us Brasilians. I guess we have 5 or so servers running.  More money for them.

Not until Titan comes out i guess.

Also, they had 1mil  Annual Passes made, so i read. Its quite a commitment from a shitload of people, enough to keep the game running with  subs for a long time.

i have an annual pass for WoW , D3 , BF3 and some PS3 games as well.

Plenty to play, i just don't the time to do it lol 

But man, i wish i could play GW2 . Such a good game.

ooh dat british accent  x) 

Can't stand GW2 videos anymore, the hype is too much. But hey, keep up the good work !

why use a G13 instead of a keyboard ?

 

i have a G110 and i fail to see why would anyone want a G13, i can see the use for a mouse with more buttons though.

 

You can have software help with your keyboard, if not the standard software you can download some macro maker for keyboards, works just the same. 

 

Buying a new hardware just for a thumbstick ? 

 

Thats all real, i'm not trolling or anything, I ask you, Why use it  and why its better than your overall keyboard ?

for me i dont use the thumbstick for movement but just the placement of my palm and how my fingers rest on the keys is a million times more comfortable than a regular keyboard for long gaming sesions. Being able to setup profiles for differen't games is just a bonus for me. Thumbstick works great for activiating skills though:)

So it comes down to comfort and the thumbstick. The profiles and other software based features you can have with any other keyboard pretty much. 

 

Comfort wise you can always have a good wrist rest, i guess it does the same. 

 

The only real "advantage" i can see is the thumbstick.

pretty much.. i wouldn't say its a "must-have" but i enjoy mine:)

it seems a good piece of hardware for sure and logitech always does great stuff.

But i thought there were more to it... some "advantage" for the player as a mouse with loads of buttons does.
