Shown during last weekend's Fanfest, CCP games has released the keynote video called "EVE Online: Origins". It's a fabulous visual look at the game's history. Check it out!
Originally posted by remyburke Eve Online with wing commander combat would be the MMO I never stop playing.
It would be a game only few would play though. Twitch flight combat tend to not be as fun as it sounds... I mean, off the top of your head, name me three succesfull (succesfull as in games most gamers would know) direct contol flight games of the last decade.
When I play Eve i dont play as a pilot, i play as the captain of my ship, with my crew under my orders.. if i say: target those ship, they target, if i say, shot that ship, my crew attacks...
If you want a space shooter there are other games, this is a RPG... you a spaceship commander, not a xwing pilot
the combat is like the video's you just need to zoom in :P some people find it hard to zoom in and out constantly but i do it and i know my fleet vs fleet experiences have been excellent

The story of eve is pretty underrated. The lore that is.... the player driven stories are legendary in mmo spheres ofc. Its the combination of both tho that make eve a real breathing world moreso than any other game imho.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed.
Trailers and movies that are nothing like what it is in reality. PR eyecandy doesn't make a good game.
Spreadsheets in space is not an exciting game or a good RPG. Didn't you hear? They ran rigged roleplaying events. So much for "sandbox" if it is all just on rails.

You mean like this: EvE EVR: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjhyRkAlK5I
Because flying a Minmatar ship is like going down a flight of stairs on an office chair while firing an Uzi.
that's why they'll make an EVE movie
can't wait for that!

CCP has a way of making great visions and trailers...
... which they never realize.

Yes, that's because it is still growing after 10y and the most innovative MMO out there which noone till this day has equalized.

it's the best and most innovative MMO ever made!
I agree EVE is a great mmo for its genre.. my point is the devs tend to over hype their ideas and talk about stuff that never gets implemented.
calling EVE the most innovative mmo out there is just showing how crappy the mmo industry is.
