EVE General Discussion

A message to the developers:

Adding more ships and items to EVE is not the same as adding more content. What might be needed is new gameplay mechanics using new tools (other than ships?) and settings (other than the pipes between stargates and stations). Think of breadth and depth of gameplay.

Fanatical Fanboism may commence.

yeah, except these things require a crap ton of time, case in point, Walking in stations took years to develop all the support for, adn after years of the entire dev team all but ignoring the central game, they came out with one room, and STILL hadnt optimized it very well, so cards burned and people got mad, then it was found out it was impossible to have more than 1 player occupy a room without the engine spazzing

now, other things may come in time (or not, since CCP in the past has said that instead of a unified MMO, DUST/Legion will be the "out of ship" part of the game), but in the short to medium term, dropping everything for completely new/useful mechanics/systems of gameplay would provide less than the effort it would take to develop and implement them

It's your responsibility to make your own content, and nobody else's. Ask the devs to do it and they'll only **** it up - long experience has shown this to be true.

OP, you mean like Thera, the seekers, and the unidentified structures?

You guys heard Serene! She is addicted to chocolate chip pancakes, is a pen chewer, doesn't wash her hands after using the bathroom, and agrees that in Eve we are only provided tools, it is up to us to create content, therefore adding new ships IS adding content.

They are adding new content. That's the whole thing with the sleepers running around and scanning everything.

Each 6 week release patch is basically a small mix of: re-balancing, new toys, updated graphics/interfaces, and new story content.

Trolling levels are decreasing by the day.

Eve is not a theme park. You are not playing eve to ride the rides in order to get the big prizes. If thats how you play eve, then you are doing it incorrectly.

EVE is a sandbox, in that use, it means its a wide area with tools scattered around, you can take the tools and use them as you see fit. Some parts have static stuff to look at and do, like exploring a cave on a beach, others you have to make up yourself, like building or destroying sand castles.

Stop thinking of eve as a themepark and you will have more fun.

oh and if you could not tell, content is coming.

FTFY

It's not, necessarily. But I find it interesting that your mind turned to that automatically.

And OP, it's my opinion that EVE's gameplay is paper thin, for boiling down to Undock -> Travel -> Dock, with combat or something else stuck in there maybe.
