EVE Online: Across the Universe

Sometimes we have to eat our words. In today's One Jump Home column, we do precisely that. Find out why we're getting out the cutlery and condiments and then weigh in with your own thoughts in the comments.

Today I intend to take a bite, but not a big one - as I haven't got that much to eat. Two weeks ago I reported that even though the CFC had changed direction, the march continued onwards regardless. Today that march moves to a slow walk as the CFC looks at its own plate and reconsiders dessert.

    Ross, you forgot to mentioned the loss of the Goonswarm titan when Raiden dropped a rather impressive super capital fleet on the CFC after their titan had died: http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12204197

    Such a shame that reading about this game is more fun than playing it.

    Ah well, nicely written article.

    Awesome read.

    Pity about CFC/Evoke though, we need more pewpew less QQ in EVE.

    Best MMO

    EVE is simply in a class by itself,  I am a new player (less than 6 months) and even as an 8 year old product .. no other game out there right now touches its depth.

    Was kind of dissapointed to hear the devs highlight "being able to gank" as the unique draw of EvE, guess I was hoping for a more altrusitic vision of freedom and reality where not only ganking but philanthropy, megolomania, hunting gankers is all possible .. but  I get it!

    Since making the jump to eve, the other MMO's just feel so .... Juvenile now when I try to play them.

    No other game I know of has news pages dedicated to the actions of the players themselves.  I love reading this, even if  I dont see how I can be a part of it right now as its all so overwhelming ....  going to be playing this for some time I think.

    My thoughts exactly, Ross should check with more than just CFC sources before posting some things.

    Is there someplace I can find a map of the current sovereignty in Eve?  There used to be a few, but I can't seem to find them any more.

  • dinamsdinams Member Posts: 1,362

    Eve is the kind of mmo that I want to get in but I can't, but I know that if I trespass that initial barrier I will stay with it for a long time

    Its only boring if you've only tested PvE combat, PvP is an entirely different animal.
