  • Theres something about auto assault that just doesn't float my boat. It's kinda fun but I get real bored real quick, I personally find theres a lack of depth. Of course, thats just me and I can see the appeal, just not one for me and I'm not r…
  • Originally posted by CaesarsGhost What did you learn from 06? That game developers really need to start being a bit more inventive if they want to make a good game. We're now seeing the WoW clones coming forward, but lets face it, If I wan…
  • Originally posted by Zerocyde Originally posted by trinityNITRO Yeah, about upgrading your rig ... I am currently waiting for the 360 version of Conan, but I MIGHT try to save up some money by next Christmas so I can buy a brand new desktop.  Qu…
  • It doesn't make any difference what the level cap is - the question is, how long will it take the average gamer to hit the cap.  You could have a game with only 5 levels take a long to cap as one in which there are 200 depending on xp scaling.

  • My only guess as to why EVE has the PvE vote is that most people don't consider crafting, minining, trading etc PvP because they don't involve blasting other players but EvE does have an extermely intricate economy.
  • There was no drone nerf... they halved the number you could have in space but doubled the damage and hps... it in fact fworked out well for drone users as the damage stays the same but it's much harder to smartbomb drones to death now. Anyhow, the…

  • I can see why people look at this and think WoW clone... it's another fantasy MMO with a similar graphical style. As has been pointed out, WoW borrowed it's style from Warhammer in the first place but thats kinda beside the point... the reason it'l…
  • Important distinction here.... when people refer to rats they're talking about NPC pirates - what we'd call MOBs in other games Pirates is usually reverved for players who play as pirates.  Pirates are much more dangerous than rats I was in 0.0 …
  • definately pay to play.

  • Tier three (not tech 3) battleships and teir 2 battlecruisers for each race are coming in (iirc) September. New skill lines for slavaging stuff from destroyed ships to enable modding ships, boosters (like drugs) that improve combat skills and even…
  • because they move quick, drones can be some of the toughest targets to hit for a low SP character - rather than using orbit at x range, use keep at x distance where x is the optimum range of your guns - that'll help lower transvertial velocity a lit…
  • The best bet is to find a quiet system (I refuse to rat anywhere where theres any other players) and just work through the belts systematically i.e. top down or bottom up. I usually avoid the top and bottom belt in a system as if you're in combat …
  • Even Frontier (elite 2) only came on one floppy - the second was just for savegames!

  • Connections skill increases standing with agents and lets you access higher level missions much earlier - I was doing lvl 2's at the end of my trial and lvl 3's after a month.  After 2.5 months playtime I have access to lvl 4's but not the skills to…
  • Well, mission runing or hunting NCP enemies in asteroid belts is good to make money.  Focus of earning enough cash for a new ship or something. If you already have a little cash, kit out a frigate with some expendable eqip, warp scamber, webber et…
  • Relatively few people have played solidly since release - most have taken substantial breaks at some point so the gaps may not be as big as you think in many case.
  • I think Urod meant to quote; Originally posted by Mylon What about crafting?  That's about the only thing I found interesting in Eve.  Well, actually the economy, as crafting was so simple.  But if crafting is made to be interesting I'd have s…
  • Some people play for a while and quit 'cos it wasn't for them.  Some of those then come and flame the game on here. A lot of prospective new players drop by sites like this to get an idea about games before they play and they should see both sides…
  • Originally posted by ke5aux I find it very hard to find a good corp these days. Most of them post the "2mil SP chars" rule, some simply exlude you in fear of you being a spy. Today I finished training up to my cruiser lvl 2 (Minmatar) But still ca…
