EVE General Discussion

I think the word you're looking for is "rebalances"

Eve is finally becoming the "niche" game some had hoped for.

It got old.

Or more correctly, it got old and the developers couldn't figure out how to keep it relevant.

Mr Epeen

Yesterday evening 30K when I logged in..... not wanting to be disrespectful to the veterans with a lot more understanding, I just hope EVE is going to continue for a long time more, I just recently started playing it.

Yes, the Summer has been blamed for dipping numbers as people are on vacation. And the Fall is also blamed for dipping numbers because, well, students are back in school. Winter is blamed for dipping numbers because it's typically the holidays. And Spring, well, I don't recall Spring ever being blamed. But wouldn't surprise me if it has in the past.

Bottom line is, numbers are dipping because it's [insert whatever season it is here].

Nah, you guys are failing, not eve. I said it in another post already, but worth repeating here. In our corp we have 10 year old pvp vets, 1 week old noobs. We don't lose a single player, everyone is dying to log in when done with RL. We are having tons of fun.

I don't know why you guys are fed up with the game, I only read a few of the whine posts here, but the 2 reactions after mine just got me baffled. How you are not having fun playing this game with endless depth and strategical and tactical opportunities to exploit in beautiful looking space ships is a mystery to me.

I know the t3 whines. I know the citadel whines. But in the communities I hang out in I only see enthusiasm to make use of changes in the game. Sure, there is critique from vets too, that CCP sometimes really makes some bad changes. But all understand this is a fact of life in the universe. People make mistakes, companies make mistakes. CCP too. In contrary to most other companies however CCP brings in a player council, even gathers a fkn custom group of players to discuss a change about 1 ship class lol.

On top of that we have the tickets we can make and constructive criticism we can make on particular dev forum posts. Or....instead of constructive.....whine like a pathetic underclass of mentally less developed cavemen. But hey, each his style.

July-september seem to have the lowest activity since a few years, you could see this trend even in 2009 but it wasn't as prominent back then. I think it's a sign of aging player base, people take their kids and go visit grandparents, take summer jobs and do other interesting stuff.

Eve 2.0 delete the old

Summer is when people logged in drops. With the nice weather and free time and vacations, etc.

Character bazar?
