Eve already is free to play if you know how to make ISK passively.

it is already free...

hint: PLEX.

also, Lineage 2 will soon be closed down like Lineage 1 was recently.

As we fund eve with hard RL cash, CCP enterprise continues to prosper and develop the unique social experiment - eve online.

They support offices, fish tanks, hamsters and some overseas art departments, which is incredible! EvE is not a MMO, it's a standalone project, which other people relate to an MMO and advise the misguided tactics employed by such games.

First, eve is not a cash cow, second there is no EVE II... there is EvE - continuum, uninterrupted reality, virtual existence. A thing that others believe into.

Why do we pay for eve? Because like a shepherd is tied to his herd, by profession and by living, eve flock has invisible strings that can pull devs really hard and even handbrake to make one - eighty turn around. Yes, by subscription devs are bound to us, harder than game addicts to the game itself. We feed, they breed, interestingly, us.

This post sums up why the 'best' work with DCM inc.

WARP DRIVE makes eve boring

really - add warping align time 300% on gun aggression and eve becomes great again

Could it be because lineage 2 is a bot ridden steaming pile of crap?

The advantage of a bad memory is that one can enjoy the same good things for the first time several times.

One will rarely err if extreme actions be ascribed to vanity, ordinary actions to habit, and mean actions to fear.

I seem to have missed the memo. Since the introduction of PLEX, when has eve not been free?

Only if its a completely different server, a very small amount of systems, no capitals or frieghters and a skill cap limit of say 20-40mil. And then MAYBE!!!



this actually its not bad.... What i would make that ALL trials play there ...no trials on TQ anymore... and newcomers to stick there....
Mby they should limit those players to stick to ther own rase (amarr can train only amarr etc) and like play limit of 2 hours than you must rest 1 hour etc :D with lots of limitations but not to much so they want a real thing.

And again on other server which is not ours!

I, for one, would quit within a few months. I've played quite a few FTP games, and they tend to attract a certain demographic I don't care for (mouth breathing spastics).

I thought they just used that for transferring files. How do you play games on a file transfer protocol?

I have two accounts and I pay one year sub every 6 months. Not a big deal, I set a EVE tax on income 1.5% and every 6 months I put it on my credit card. Play when I want to and not worry about grinding isk.Blink
