If you only consider only one factor, the outcome is not likely, is obvious. Considering GTA 5 the factor determining a hypotetical decrease of the EVE population doesn´t seem an educated guess to me.
Not only that. Even if there is a decrease in the EVE population in the next days, pretending you predicted the cause is pretentious.

I, for one, am a huge fan.
Used icelaglances modified enb series, new textures, new cars, ambient occlusion...

I won't get the game myself, but already told the mentikned friend that i *will*
come to his place to see how i can blow things up and cause desaster.

GTA is great. It's like the (proper) 3D version of '93s Syndicate....
I can't stop blowing **** up HAHAHAHAHAHAHA XD

Oh come on, you're just being cynical now and LOOKING for something to complain about. If there IS a decrease in the EVE population, then I'm not pretending to have predicted it, am I. I actually predicted it. And if you use your noggin, it's really not that hard to predict. Seriously, I'm not even pretending to be ultra cool or smart for predicting a decrease in EVE's population, I'm just heading off the expected "EVE is dying" threads if that is the case, and if it does happen right on GTA5's release date, how much do you want to bet, right here right now, that GTA5 is the cause? Honestly, you either don't get that or you're just looking for something to complain about. Neither case is my problem.

The point is, any decrease in EVE's population AS A RESULT of GTA 5 is not as a result of a game that is dying. That's my point, and my only point. Stop hating, go have a beer and chill out, man.

Possibly relevant.

Is that evidence that the French did it? P



Impossible, French never or almost never work, let alone hack stuff :effort:

the PC port of GTA IV was one of the biggest abominations in porting history.

You better hope this is better, personally I am considering it the last hurrah for my ps3 before I get my ps4 in November :)

Pretty hyped for GTA V over here - but not hype enough for the midnight release.

Mailman's gonna drop it in my mailbox tomorrow or the day after. Good enough for me.

Great times playing GTA. Sadly I am going to miss playing it. Just don't have the time lately. I wish you guys all the best curled up next to your Xbox360s and PS3s.

I have a small request to ask. Please when you do come out of your man cave couple of things to note:

1. wash first
2. brush your teeth (if you still have any left)
3. try to wear clothes that doesn't look like you slept in it.

At least those of you attending the board meetings. You know who you are.

Quite a few marriages will fail this week. Lawyers should be happy.

Yep whilst I'm waiting for GTA 5 on PC (have a console but it hasn't been switched on in a year) I'm playing Saints Row 4 (which to be honest looks like it was written with the Goons in mind) and EVE.

I don't understand? You are going to play a computer game, and its not eve? You lost me there. There are other computer games? You jest!

I only have time for one game, the best game, EvE. That and RL pubs. Even better is playing eve in the pub!

AKA the scientist.

Death and Glory!

Well fun is also good.
