EVE General Discussion

It's going thataway. *points in a random direction*

Will it continue to spin while its level slowly drops, but then for no reason backs up suddenly forcing you to grab a plunger and nuts for like no reason?

Will science ever invent a microwave that can make both the inside AND the outside of a burrito the same temperature?

Will Christian Slater ever find gainful employment in something other than poorly written ripoff movies?

I fear this breakthrough in modern science, will never come to pass.

Reading the forums would be much more productive if certain posters would spend half the time trying to be productive as they spent to be a smart a$$.

Just saying.....

I imagine they could if they took the time to figure out where the microwaves peak inside and move the burrito across that line in an efficient manner.

Fun tidbit I found on the internet, you can measure the speed of light roughly by microwaving a hotdog.

Will the Eve universe ever expand?
Just exactly how many Solar Systems do you need? I think there's plenty available right now. The only part that needs to expand is the Factional Warfare systems that remain uncontested for a specific amount of time, such as 1 month. Uncontested systems over 1 month old should be turned into high security systems and another low security system becomes a FW system.

In other words - Minmatar and Amarr fight over a FW system and lets say Minmatar controls that system for over 1 month, that system then becomes part of Minmatar SOV high security and another Amarr low security system takes it place as a FW system.

Will we ever have additional races added on?
Again, just exactly how many Races do you need? As for players to choose for their characters - I think the 4 different Races we currently have is more than enough. I believe the only other 2 Races available in Eve Lore would be The Jovians and The Ancients which are probably reserved for CCP employees, especially useful for in-game 'Live Events'.

Will there ever be an alien threat?
Well, we already have Sansha Incursions available as well as the new Mordu's Legion patrols happening in low security. Not to mention the elusive 'Ghost Sites'.

Granted those aren't exactly 'Alien' but they are 'Threats'. Maybe in the future The Jovians and The Ancients will become the new 'Alien Threat'. We can only hope.

I burn 14 dollar bills in front of the eve login screen on the 1st of every month. The 99 cents goes to the dirty hobo outside mcdonalds. He can do what he wants with it

On "threats".

I doubt there will ever be an overwhelming "alien" threat of any kind.

In this game, players are supposed to be a threat to each other and, well, that's just not always the case.

Any truly game-affecting (changing?) "threat" should be a complete surprise and outside of the control or knowledge of players. Meaning, it doesn't appear beforehand on the test server for 2 weeks giving everyone a warning that effectively defeats the point.

Asteroids slamming into stations, station "fusion plants" going critical, npc sabotage of jumpgates that isolate systems/constellations without notice... the kind of stuff that SHOULD be part of a sci-fi game.

All of which (and more) has, over the years, fallen on deaf ears.

Universe expansion -
In the short term, probably not. currently there is no real need for this.
In the long term, most likely yes. there has been mention of player built gates etc, specific details are obscure though afaik

Aliens -
short term, nope.
long term, nope.

we have rogue drones, and sleepers (a kind of automated drone as well)
everything else is just a different kind of human
