EVE General Discussion

If compared to all current games on the market and specially those I played, EVE would be quite solid 8/10.


EVE is great game and thats why I still play but I got sucked into EVE with interesting ideas and devs telling about WiS and specially smuggling contraband around and so on, but it was quite disaster as with those good ideas came some horrible ones aswell (we all know em so no point bringing them up) and CCP does seem to be scared to even talk about those good ideas they had planned ever since. -1

Content. There is difference in improving ancient content and totally recreating it. I was totally into Odyssey, I thought myself that here comes new mysterious ancient ruins and destroyed spaceships of old for me to explore and discover. I got 3-5 exactly similar looking centers in space... in every... single... site... I found, all across vastness of space. I would understand if we would live in year 1998 but this is 2013, is that all you could give us with todays technology? So long story short, exploration of odyssey is more like trash can diving. -1

I would probably give -1 for Dust / EVE link but I dont play Dust.

I have never played any other online game, but I do enjoy Eve enough (and I am hopeless at it) to give it 10/10

Even the bits I feel were done wrong, i.e. changing the mission drone AI before, not after the UI changes, and the grab a can thingy, are pretty small issues in a great game.

The ongoing ship re-balancing is, I feel, going to be one of the best things to ever happen to the game, the new and varied content, that CCP do seem to listen to their customers most of the time, the Eve Online community, even the ones I sometimes strongly disagree with, all make Eve pretty much the only computer game I play.

I hope and have every reason to believe I shall enjoy my next six years playing Eve as much as I have my first six years.

As a game? 3/10 at best. But EVE isn't a game.

EVE is a game, plain and simple, 7/10. Old mechanics from the early days of EVE need to be addressed and/or overhauled. Not using the DUST tech in the EVE client was bad as DUST is not good as a stand alone game.

Gameplay is good, company behind it needs some work. 6/10, after accounting for poor design choices and poor customer service.

5 out of 10. Local makes the game suck. Lose local then 10 out of 10.

7/10

Good for a MMO, but not the end all it could be.

Criminal/Bounty system is still a bit messed up, more punishments for doing bad things, rewards for doing good things.
PvP needs to be more emphasized/incentivized.
More PvE incentives in Low sec (things you can't do with a cloaky warp core stabbed frigate)
FW needs some tweaks.
Solo PvP needs some help.

Go hug some wormholes.

I don't give it a 10 because of the drone UI.

And the Imicus.

you would need a sliding scale. when i first started over 5 years ago i would have given this game a 8/10. now i find it hard to give it more than a 5/10.

this game has progressively been dumbed down and made more theme park friendly. with the addition of "features" that effect everyones game play and not giving options to turn stuff off, ie scanner overlay. also their fixes are not fixes, more like patches on patches that only end up costing you time to download fixes for stuff that should have been caught in QA.

the ship changes have been ok until this latest round where they touched commandships and hacs. i understand that smaller gangs and stuff need some love, but when you get insta popped in your 500 mil isk BC, its sorta dumb. leaving the carebear mining ships in the pos with links running is also not right.

Sov is still messed up even though CCP said they would "look into it" shortly after the release, this also was said about adding a button for the scanner overlay when it was introduced.

active tanking is broke, really broke, instead of fixing the active tanking part, they desided to give it as bonuses to ships. great, lets apply a broken game mechanic to a ship. good thinking there, glad you have your priorities in order.

pos rework.. . yeah keep dreaming, all that stuff that Soundwave was talking about.. not going to happen, just like the sov system that was suppose to be improved on after deployment 2 years ago.

CCP had a great game, but with broken promises, ****** CS and bad game changes its not the same game it was 5 years ago. in some areas it has become a better game, but overall the quality and content of its "patches" have made this game a 5.
