I might get flamed I might not, here it goes.
I think the economy that the devs are working on could very well match the economy set in eve-online. Lets be honest eve-online has one of the stronger mmo economies out there of all mmo's. If the economy engine is strong for lack of a better term that's a plus. The cool part is we won't get bored because PBS actually has some very nice graphics. Eve was nice also, but once you see one star system you've seen them all.
I was thinking that if PBS could add some land missions to the game that would be pretty cool also, but maybe that's asking to much.
Who knows, I just hope I have a new favorite game. WoW is done in my book, it's hit the mmo wall regardless of BC and I really want to have hope for all the other games that are being released in 2007.

I must know what game you have your signature from.. Pls. let me know
PotBS isnt going to be single shard as far as i know, so that right there will make it very different from EVE.

Yes PoTBS Concept is basiclly like EVE but more Combat is much different for starters there will be Avatar Combat and Avatar interacting. But like EVE there are chances that you will get bored just sailing around and blowing up the same stuff and it can get old and some of the cumminity will see that.
I know this from a friend of mine in beta who got bored and stoped playing beta.
But you dont have to listen to him cuase that F%&ker is werid he always forgets his passwords and accounts so i never got to try the game when he stoped using is account...

That total 180 just struck me as very funny. Thanks for the laugh and the post.
Well it's no secret that you'll be able to go on land, which is a huge plus in my book. I think that the mix between the sea and land is what appeals most to me. So long as there is a good balance between the two or as long as I have a place to go meet people and make deals or things of that nature.
Needless to say, Flying Lab has me excited.
There is land combat so no worries.
I think this game COULD be better than Eve Online too!
Main things in favour of PotBC
- Lovely graphics!!!!
- More than one shard! In Eve Online, one guild is FAR more powerful than the others and they have 'won the end game'! Doesn't help that rumor says they are composed of developers!
- It's historical, and therefore more socially acceptable to play - but obviously, this depends on the execution at release.
Main things in favour of Eve
- It's science fiction, so the developers have much more scope for adding new things. (BUT will this make a difference? Only time will tell.)
- It's one shard! So there is a real community feel.
I will admit that some of what I've read seems to make me think of Eve and I do have some friends who are hardcore Eve players looking into this game (maybe because it reminds them of Eve but with a pirate theme), but I'll think I'll wait and see how it is if I make it into the beta or if they ever give out a free trail. Until then I'll sit back and hope that whatever this game turns out to be like I hope its fun.
Oh a pirates life for me!
And thats my 2 cents
