EVE General Discussion

another remark about a game that is still in development .
Why would any game developer make a game to be as EvE?
Would be a dumb idea to get those few away from EvE.

I only enjoy sandbox mmo-rpg games, that game is a themepark mmo-rpg advertised as a sandbox game. So it is trash.

Opinions...

For me the last three expansions were amazing, and CCP should continue on that path.

They did make one and it hasn't done too well it's called Mortal Online so the CSM is WRONG

mortal online is care bare free, it's also empty lmao

I would if I could login to Dust on my PC through the EVE client and play the game that way because consoles are less than 1/8th of my PC's processing power and Dust looks like crap. you have a simple mind. what's wrong putting gameplay styles in a game that don't impact yours if you choose not to participate.

it is these kinds of attitudes that rot this community that EVE has, simple minded bigots

If I was a new player in this game, when players are usually the MOST critical of a game, the 1st impression. My impressions would be:

I am a bit confused as to why I have to create this avatar, choose it's clothes and take a picture. If all I can do is walk around in this room by myself and watch tv, sit on a couch or go hop in my ship. WHY did I go through the whole process of making them just right thinking it was going to matter?

I'd have a lot of questions about that and wonder if the game was "incomplete"

CCP did bring these ideas and visions to us too long ago and have failed to deliver because certain people in this game think for some self-absorbed reason that their opinion is the only one that matters. What they like in a game only matters. What they don't want in a game only matters. In reality, tons of content can be added to expand on the game that literally would not impact nor infringe on the current gameplay model nor anyones ability or enjoyment of the game as it is now.

This is the way to make EVERYONE happy. Too often the argument is me, me, me while the people who actually support WIS and additional AVATAR gameplay are all inclusive with what they want for EVE. These are the people who are thinking about everyone. We are not asking for others enjoyment to be ruined. We are asking that EVE GROW as a game. WIS FPS through PC is the only way to do it and do it correctly in a way that would impact EVE in EPIC proportions.

A Sci-Fi game that caters to a good portion of gameplay styles in one shared universe wtih consequences is the Sci-Fi gamers dream, especially if it is a sandbox and shiny to look at.

those people on the CSM said that they would go play a sand-box game in a fantasy world if it offered all the key components are so well "informed" that they don't even know that one already exists and it has already gone FTP because it's not catching on.

The reason MO didn't do well had nothing to do with it's concepts (which were amazing) and everything to do with excecution (which was and still is horrible). It's like UO with ****** 3D graphics and one percent of the content.

I'm perplexed as to why CCP added a solo captain quarters experience, a clothing store to go with it but then decided not to add the interactive social experience of actually walking out of the quarters and interacting with other players. How could the potential or success of WiS be evaluated when WiS was never properly implemented? CCP just half-assed WiS and then gave up on it.

You know, one of the issues that puzzle me about EVE and CCP is how unproductive their developers appear to be. How long it takes for them to do so little. Unofficially, I blame it to complexity, how everything you do in EVE is going to tie and interwine to so many other factors that balancing takes away most of the development effort.

Think of it, does it really take 500 people to deliver a expansion like the ones we get? Mostly revamped 10 years old sh*t?

I can't help to compare to Star Citizen and how a little team of some 30 people is planning to do in 2 years a whole new game. Of course, they're taking shortcuts: Chris Roberts is a producer, he knows his trade, and so much of the SC development has been outsourced to a established studio with expertise in Cry engine 3 and Dx11 graphics. Hired talent is cheaper and faster than to train and establish it yourself, and surely helps Robert's vision of an evolving universe.

Meanwhile, CCP is using not less than 3 separate graphic engines for their 3 products, and only one of them (DUST's Unreal Engine) can be developed by industry standards. in that sense, CCP still thinks like a tiny studio who can't afford to license an engine and must do it itself. With the manpower and hubris of a bigger studio, they're doing it twice at the time and even dared to trash an unfinished engine and develop a new one for what would become Incarna. But now... sure they have good reasons to not use EVE's Carbon for WoD, but that still is crappy resource allocation unless EVE Carbon engine is becoming a "spaceships only" engine.

The existence of a WoD Carbon casts a serious doubt on wether EVE Carbon is going to be used for avatars. Some time ago I already wondered wether CCP had the inhouse talent to create avatar content: with l all those guys doing spacehips all day, who in EVE could make avatar content without some "reskilling"?

It would be easier if they knew what to do and what to say about it, becasue it pretty much looks like they painted themselves in a corner. EVE is a spaceships game and they wouldn't be able to develop it further throguh avatars even if they figured or wanted to.

Just they don't dare to say it openly. Remove the CQ, the NEx and evertyhing but the bare character creator delivered with Incursion. If they won't make it, then should break it and stop the pain.
