I'll realize that I've been into the matrix for too long and might start hanging out more often. Honestly though, I think my character will outlive me. I have a T-shirt with him, so who's controlling who?

You get to find out soon, about a few weeks after the old style pos get removed. These new structures are set sail for fail. Eve economy will fail so hard, unsubs will happen at an exponential rate, CCP closes its doors.

I'm sorry, but what makes you think this? Have you used a pos? i mean really sat down and used them? I want to rip my god damn eyes out every time i try to mess with a ******* pos. The citadels will be a HUGE improvement. I'm looking forward to all the new structures and an end to the monstrosity that is the pos.

You are forced to enter RL and see the world totally different:


When you go to Walmart:

Your Car at Walmart = Your ship
You park your car there for several days = POS
You get jumped in the parking lot = You just got ganked.
You fight over a parking space = Wardec

The sliding doors into Walmart = Stargate
A bunch of thugs hanging outside the entrance to walmart = Gatecamp
Seemingly harmless old or disabled person greeting at entry door = Neutral
An organized group of people working to take things = Corp op.
Trying on new clothes = Refitting

Police = in T3 Cruisers

The in store McDonalds = NPC Station
McDonalds chicken nuggets = Reprocessing

Busload of people come in = Someone dropped a cyno
Shopping cart = Cargo hold

Person trying to sell you cable tv = Scammer
The homeless guy picking up cans = Salvager
Guy breaking into cars = Ninja looter
Really overweight person shopping = Freighter
A good looking girl you see there = Is really a guy

The people in walmart you know = Green
Employees inside Walmart = Blues
Employees from a competeing store wearing red = Target.

I guess you're just more evolved than me; not being able to play an incomplete game.

And of course the poetic justice is that in your snide comeback you forgot to mention that you cant land on planets on Tranquility, or do many of the things that were promised long before SC was even a project.

I've found enough solid friendships through EVE that I never have to lose, and for that I would be grateful.

I'd follow you, ISD DB.

Why depressed though? You might actually get a paid position there.

The world would implode, creating a blackhole, then the moon would get sucked into the black hole, increasing it's mass and suck in Mars and Venus, thus mass increasing and suck in the rest of the solar system. If EVE were still offline after that, then the black hole would continue to suck in all matter in the universe either until the universe ceases to exist, or EVE comes back online. Whichever happens first.

Eve has never said that is a feature of the game, so its not really snide. SC has stated that planets landing and doing crap on them are a part of the full game, as is FPS, misisons, etc. so again you are not playing star citizen you are playing arena commander, and hanger module. Niehter of which si the full game. so yes its incomplete.

Unless SC suddenly changes to just be like Vlak, then its not done yet.

Eve doesn't say much. However, you can check previous fanfests, dev blogs, and tweets to see what was promised and not delivered in Eve.

I could give two ****s if SC is complete or not. That wasn't part of the question or part of my reply. Obviously Eve is more complete than SC at the moment. The question was what would you do if Tranquility went offline tomorrow, so I answered it. BOTH games are incomplete by the admission of the devs of each game, respectively.

So it wasn't snide, it was ignorant. I forgive you. You can research it yourself or stay in denial. My money is on the latter. Fly safe.
