EVE Online

EVE ONLINE

I have to say, this is simply one of the best MMORPG's I have ever played. Great graphics, great gameplay, great everything. After you start playing it, it's hard to turn back. But..this game is complex..really complex..it will take you years to completely understand it.This is a long-term game, which means you have to devote at least a year to get strong as Superman .

Here is a graph to illustrate my point:

Other two minor things are the every-day 1 hour maintenance and people who advertise-spam their "gold" selling websites. A nice addition to the game is the "rookie help channel", where you can ask questions from more than 2000 people.

 

So yeah..share you thoughts about the game. I myself started a week ago and love it!

Being a past mmorpg addict I can truely say that all rpgs suck.

 

It is one thing when you are with friends because atleast you can have a social life whilst you play a game with such pointless meanings, but if none of your friends are online or you are just some loner then WOW, I would rather watch the meatspin counter hit 1,000,000 than play it.

 

1. The distance??? I played Oblivion and saw that you could simply teleport to any point, but that makes the game a bit pointless.... You then have the extreme opposite such as WoW where you are walking for AGES to get somewhere. Atleast WoW has an auto walk so your fingers dont die but you still have to endure the looongggg wait.

 

2. Quests. Half the time it is "Kill 10 chickens" or "Travel to Kimaestrolasias' Castle and slay him (killing or running away from 1000 of the same monsters".

 

3. Training. Definitely my biggest hate. I played Runescape because my friend did and the only reason I didn't kill myself was because I used macros to level up but for those people who cut down 1000000000 trees, kill 313256225615 goblins and whatever else, IS THERE NOTHING BETTER IN YOUR LIFE THAN THIS?.

 

4. PvP. The only reason I didn't quit Runescape was because of the great pking, which WoW fails to stand equal to. Sadly even Runescape's PvP has become drastically boring because of the retarded 6 year olds who got tricked into dieing (the only possible way I could make the game fun).

 

5. The Price. I'm not cheap but first you have to buy the game for like £30, and then there is the monthly fee and then comes expansions.....In the end you are forking out a lot of money for something I might have to be paid to consider playing.

 

6. Same old.... Everything is based around the old crap. Swords....Bows....Magic....even rpgs which try to be different have the same old boring tasks.

 

 

 

But I guess if you want to play it go ahead and play it. I probably would if I had some real life friends who played it a lot but they don't so definite no for me :thumbdown:

 

Oh yeah a good point of an mmorpg........Depending on what game you play, if you make it to a high level without killing yourself it can be quite fun. It all depends on what there is to offer but whilst people may think "Wow shit graphics Runescape sucks" (and they would be right because the developers have ruined it inbetween now and the time I quit) but it was great joy to PvP in it because if you won, you got their items...not the pride of wasting my time like WoW.

 

Then again...if you have to wait a long time in order to have fun I don't see the point. Maybe if you are the kind of person to take games seriously and would consider it "your job" then maybe you would enjoy it?

I like the game but I will have no time for it, and plus since my strip miner blew up Ima be giving up all my stuff to my corp and retrying when I am out of the military.

[PotshotPolka]

What? You're in the military?

What? You're in the military?

 

Technically yes, but I got this last week of high school and then July 8th I am off to boot camp. I am all signed up and what not.

Eve's learning curve is indeed steep, and starts the moment you enter the game.

That's the thing about this game, it's so much different then other's:001_smile:

Well thats why I never likes WoW and Runescape and stuff set back in that sorta time period. The futuristic setting of Eve is what I like and I never like playing multiplayer games for long period of times if there are no friends or friendly people I can play with. MMORPG's for me get extremely boring if I am not with people.

I enjoyed playing EVE when most of the original SG admins were on it with me but after the trial is over, I was reluctant to pay for a long-term game. :001_unsure:
