No one may care, but, I thought I would point something out to everyone.

I know every time CCP releases an expansion, there are plenty of people who immediately start moaning and groaning, sometimes i think they do it just to hear themselves click away on the keyboard...

Next time you want to fuss about an expansions not being 100% perfect, consider this...

WoW has been out since 2004, in that time, there have only been 4 expansions (according to wiki), and if IRC from my friend who plays (whom I've been trying to convert), only 1 of them was FREE. The other all cost some sort of $$ to add to the game.


EON has been out since 2003, in that time there have been 16, yes 16 expansions. All of them have been FREE OF CHARGE.


have a great weekend everyone, and fly safe...unless you live in ls, then...BONZAAII!!!

...Can't. Tell. If ...Troll? Or Serious....

EVE "Expansions" are not free, they cost $14.95 USD per month.

/minerals obtained from mining are also not free

"You get what you pay for."

"Quality over quantity"

Feel free to add yours.

Do not assume anything above this line was typed by me. Nerf the Truth, it's inconvenient.

And just to point out the expanisons in WoW are optional apart from one i think the free one if you do not buy WoW expansions you wont get some content.

with eve this wouldnt work and tbh if they didnt patch (makes expansions) for eve the game would go stale and people would leave.

so its in ccps intrest to keep the game ont the ball or they player base wont pay for the game.

I'd pay without a thought for eve expansions that are as content rich as the wow ones! I don't like wow very much, however Blizzard keeps a high pace with quality AND quantity.

Odyssey: Repacking in POS hangars for modules +1,  but please for other stuff too, especially containers. Make containers openable in POS hangars.

As of Cataclysm, WoW officially requires all three of the previous expansions to experience the full range of content. If you don't install them, you're missing out on dozens of dungeons, raids, new professions, new continents and all of the expansion races and areas.

I can't get rid of my darn signature!  Oh, wait....

lol, then why dont you guys go play wow then? If you dislike this game so much, why keep playing it? almost all of you have contested my point of view.... yet here you are, still active in a game you don't even like.

I quit after Incarna...

CCP decided they wanted me back. I said not going to happen and they heard try harder.

I can not resist their boyish charm.
