I'll give $2.25 not a penny more.
Just bought it on the steam sale :P Didnt really want the game, but i was so trigger happy with my visa card lol, hopefully some better games on the sale tomorrow!
Gonna give this game a go tough, since i allready bought it :P did the trial once and its a cool game, but i dont like the combat system that much =/ Everything else is great tough.
Currently Playing Path of Exile
LOL I wonder if they'll suceed in gaining players faster than they walk away in disgust...talk about a deathrace.
If anybody's tempted by the apparent depth and complexity of eve, keep walking. They're gutting the game into a FPS to mesh with the dust console game they're working on.
21 days trial + 30 days = 5 USD = Win !
DOOOOOOOOMMMMM !
If they actually turned it into a fps and not this auto lock on auto fire til something is dead I might come back and play it again.Wouldnt be so boring
Hopefully this brings in more victims.....errrr.....I mean players.
I grabbed it early for myself an a mate and that's what is putting us off it right now. Just sitting there waiting to blow up the target is boring the hell outta us.
It really shouldnt take you that long to kill something! Even a very young character, with his ship setup correctly should be able to pop targets pretty quickly.
But yea, you have to view it more as a simulator than an adrenaline packed buzz kill game.
Imagine if you were captain of the enterprise.. with a big ship like that you dont sit there with a joystick going pew pew
.. you have a crew and you issue orders to the crew... thats what Eve is, the ships are not one man fighter ships they are massive and you are issuing orders. Trust me, later on its hard enough managing those orders and you'll be glad you dont have to manually fly the thing as well.
I think its why it appeals to a more mature gaming audience to be honest, even then, its certainly not for everyone. Dont feel bad if you dont get it, maybe in a few more years time they'll add something more arcady, or maybe in a few years you'll want a game thats a bit more serious and long term.
You've posted that in a couple of threads so far, so I'm wondering if you could explain what was changed or announced that led you to believe that. It's a very odd, and insanely false, statement and I'm really interested in what brought you to such a conclusion.
There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

Apparently they want EVE to be the next WoW-Killer and next patch they will allow people to walk around stations as goblins and worgen.
or something...
Ah. Hadn't heard about the plan to make EVE a WOW-killer either, but if they're adding monsters and furries as you say then they should do well. I'm concerned that a Worgen FPS might end up competing with Wolf Team, but you guys probably know more of the details on this than I do.
I'm learning a lot in this thread. Thanks!

Show me on the doll where the bad game touched you...
For anybody thinking about playing Eve...this guy has no idea what he's talking about.
Someone should gift me the game via steam ^_^
$5 only? Oh wow, that was quite a bargain!
Keep on rockin'!
