Here is my video to compare Star Citizen's newly release pre-Alpha hangar with EVE Online's client and "WIS" walking in station.

Please keep in mind the I speed up this video by 110% due to mic problems. Also, keep in mind EVE Online's client and WIS should be better than Star Citizen pre-Alpha stuff. (I think WIS has been out for a few years now)

Upload complete. The EVE Online stuff is toward the end.

I may have to reupload it if it doesn't come out of 240. I recorded it in 720.

Both are space games. But, what I was comparing it to was the WIS and hangar. That's one of the many areas the 2 games overlap.

I think you've spent far too much time comparing the minutia of what are effectively menues.
All I want, and what we had a huge community rage about, was for the ship selection menu to continue to work promply and let us get back into space in a ship asap, without labourious animation & certainly no extra client resource overhead. Ideally docked time is kept to a minimum, the game's lasted a decade without docked gameplay because we're playing a space game, not a station game.
It's an MMO, CQ is single player.

Whatever floats your boat. But I can tell you it's not what keep the company afloat.

Part of a space game is a station game. Like besides fighting, how much time do you think people would spend in space in real life (giving if eve is real). Personally I would think we would spend less time in space than most people do right now.

That being said, EVE is much more than a fighting game. Some of the things like resource management makes more sense to do that in a station. So just because you don't like the idea of WIS doesn't mean others don't.


BTW I'm kinda shocked trolls haven't taken over my post.

That's because nobody, including "trolls" cares about walking in stations.

Yes, SC looks nice and all that. Cockpit based twitch piloting etc. and so forth. However, SC will have to be heavily instanced. Even Roberts himself said the max in any battle would be about 150 players. At least that is what they were originally shooting for supposedly. I take that with a grain of salt however since unlike an FPS like MAG where they were having some 200 people a space based game with basically newtonian physics is going to have a lot more calculations for a server to solve. It will also have to solve all of that at faster speeds then what is being called for on an FPS. And even MAGs 100+ battles have or had lag issues from what I understand.

Like it or not, I like WIS. I hate how it feels like I'm in a jail (can't go beyond your room).

Anyways, I'm going to use the 2 games as measuring sticks for one another as much as I can.

Do it man, I am with you. But since I am a eveaholic I could be a little one sided. Even EVE did not go this nuts

So far comparing I see a pay 2 win games verses Eve man glad it never when that way.

WiS died a long time ago and it can stay dead. It's completely worthless crap that doesn't belong in Eve.

I disagree, I think it's an idea whose time has come. There should be more reasons and benefits to entering the cq, CCP should make an effort to make it useful.

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...
