The makers of Earth and Beyond - bringer of the flaming space skull, is well worthy of our admiration. I for one welcome our new corporate overlords.

You're welcome.



Actually, the Jove space may become a reality, as I stumbled upon this bit in an article someone linked today:

Quote:
I was excited for Odyssey the moment I heard it was going to focus on exploration, but it was a small snippet from the Odyssey press release that really stood out to me:

"Odyssey greatly expands the opportunities for players to explore all corners of the massive EVE Universe and its 7,929 solar systems." This is interesting because there are currently only 7,699 accessible solar systems in the game, with 5201 in known space and 2498 hidden wormhole systems. But there are 230 additional systems in Jove space that have been closed to players since EVE went live, and that would bring the total to the magic number of 7,929.

Odyssey press release, stating 7,929 systems


Saw this myself. As much as I too, would like it to be true, without any sort of CCP confirmation, I firmly believe it was just one of your typical dev blunders/oversights.
