Prob for the same reason that everything that comes from your mouth sounds like something from the special Olympics.

Again with the personal attacks...you should try making your point without them.



No cause honestly half the time reading your posts makes my head hurt.... Seriously if you think that the game is in no way shape broken and or needs new content.... You might wanna check your prescription...

Just for the record Rhes I am a real Eve Player.

I don't limit myself to any one type of Eve gameplay, I do a little bit of all of it.

I bet I do more with the sandbox than you.

Plus the only person in this thread who attacks people personally is you.

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...

Dude, nobody care to talk or making point sto you. Happens to trolls, when someone works that hard to become everybody's fool. They're only using you as s bot to automatically +1 WiS related threads.

To be fair Star Conflict isn't a bad game, though at the moment it's nothing like Eve, come the end of the year though when they've developed their 'Open Sandbox' mode which is currently in development and we can have gate camps and ganking in that then Eve will find itself with yet another competitor, one that can be played for free!


Oh yes, I didnt mean Star Conflict is a bad game. But is a different genre, is more like a WoD with spaceships. Not a persitent universe/sandbox. And I don't know about any sandbox mode, when I tried it few months ago there was only a battleground system.

EVE is a totally different game, more in depth and so on. But I see a nad trend to simplify EVE gameplay, removing whole parts of the game and enforce a unique gameplay standard. This is a downgrade for EVE, but is a viable option if they want to give up and reduce mantainence costs.

Apologies I didn't mean to imply that, apologies for being unclear.

I too dislike the dumbing down, not to mention the changes that came with pegi 12.

Why do people still argue with Rhes?

The ones that need convincing is CCP .. And oh wait, they have already said they want to do more with avatars.

It's kind of addictive because you know that no matter how stupid your post, it can't be worse than Rhes' next reply.

Without me checking 170 pages (a quick search didn't show hits), but if we leave our ship/pod to go EVA - and this is just from a technical point of view of course, as EVE is just a game - we are no longer attached to the little device that fries our brain and uploads us to get put in a clone, so would not death while doing an EVA mission mean perma death?

How is that handled in the mechanics/lore/etc?

I apparently have no idea what I'm doing.

You can have soft backups taken at regular intervals according to templar one which do not kill you or as others have suggested you wake up in a new clone body that has the same sp that you had the last time you got podded. This might be devastating to a carebear or it might force people to do a quick death jump and get a new clone prior to EVA so that the clone imprint is up to date. Alternatively it could also be handled by having a special class of jump clone that keeps a snapshot of your sp when you jump so that all you lose is the sp you would have gained when completing the EVA should you happen to die out there.

either way I don't mind loss in a game if the rewards are worth it as indicated above EVA would open the way to new immersive game play which is why I support it.

Good God, Rhes if not for your trolling this thread would probably be dead by now or at least would not grow to 170 pages monstrosity that it is now. I'm getting an impression that subconsciously you do want WiS.

Additionally to what Khamez wrote, CCP pr guy said that they are looking at possibility to have different clones for different tasks. Like for example: for ship control stuff you would have capsuleer clones with overly developed brains full of implants, for dust you would have faceless clones with high muscle mass, etc.
It could be kinda cool if they do that, infomorph all the way .

Wouldn't it be awesome if the countdown on the main page was for WIS?

Hey, a guy can dream.

You really think someone would do that? Just log into EvE and tell lies?

I've always contested that the countdown is simply a countdown to mass player disappointment.

I don't think so. Will be some announcement as "Dust finnally on PC" or something related to Valkyrie, or some new amazing game for iPad only. Anyway nothing relevant for EVE.

They wouldn't waste the WiS potential hype not announcing long before.

Honestly i would be ok with that.. i do think tho if they release dust for pc we should get 6 slots tho 3 for dust 3 for cap...The ability to transfer our dust chrs to the pc client would be a plus.

This is good realistic answer. I doubt Dust will not come to PC within the next 4 months, and I don't think CCP would announce its coming to PC on the EvE website either. I think it will be something related to fan-fest.

There's the safe bet there. With fanfest coming up they're not going to announce anything ground-shaking, because they would want to do that at Fanfest. It's going to be boring.
