I hope it is part of an April Fool's joke but the way CCP is being lately .... I am not so sure, it might be real.

All I can say is, other games have tried this and they usually fade drastically. Some veterans holding on bitterly, others using their knowledge to crush the newbies hopes. New servers for fresh starts do not work.

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

That would be so brilliant,
nobody would believe it until they gave us a login for it.

Think about it.

A server without the worst carebears.

They'd not dare, or turn into one of us.


Brilliant!

It's a hoax. If CCP really wanted to "reboot" the player base, they would make T3 ships in all classes that were too over-powered and too smexy looking not to fly. The resultant skill point loss upon death would make us all n00bs again.

Maybe they're planning to finally make EVE 2.0 and get rid of that legacy code.

I would agree but I know for a fact that stackless Perl 6.0 isn't out yet.

Anyone who believed this for even a fraction of a second should be forced to biomass all their characters and cancel their accounts to this game and all other games. They should no longer be allowed access to internet service and should be forced to join a monastery and beg forgiveness for their stupidity between bouts of self-flagellation.

It's not a fake story. They do hard hitting articles about MMOs. Here's one they did about the unspoken dark side of CCP's buddy program.

Would make sense at least. You can choose an already skilled character to participate in some activity but if you die poof new character. Frankly that may be a far more hardcore version of EVE then EVE is currently.

Maybe it will finally be the Total Hell Death release.


  • Perma death
  • No jump clones
  • No local anywhere
  • War Decs are free
  • The Great Nano Nerf has been reversed

For an April Fool's joke I think I'd prefer, not a Renaissance server, but a Next Generation server.

Don't send everyone back to start. Advance them forward to 300 million SP and a few billion ISK. Then the new players that think they should advance faster will learn that more skill points without the player skill is just a fast way to the ALOD list.

Happy April Fool's to you then.

You can p. much double your training on this EVE server where everything costs 100 ISK.

everything is better with ᵈᵒᵗˢ on it
