Personaly I likeBlack prophecy more because i hate EVE's click and select options way of playing the game. Evereywhere looked thisame. Sure the ships where cool but evreything was 2 complicated and it was P2P
so far blackprophecy looks better, better story, doesn't look like click and select game, 1st person and 3rd person, more realistic ships(but not immpresive ships).
i would buy Black prophecy for £500 other than buy EVE and pay the sub for practicly thisame thing and a bit more.

I LOL'd
There is plenty of very good space games... Sins of a Solar Empire is one example. Black Prophecy... what can I say...
There is no knowledge that is no power.
Eve of course.
I will play BP due to being F2p though.
I mean Minus the combat (twitch>Point 2 Click) Eve is a better game in every way.
Playing: Rift, LotRO
Waiting on: GW2, BP
Bp gonna be better than eve, And the ships of BP gonna be impressive (there are even ships that you need more than 1 player to fly whit), Bp has also cut scenes in missions (actualy in every point is Bp better than eve)
Well the point and click gameplay of Eve bores the shit of of me.
When I tried the Eve I was expecting something like the X Series, and I got a RTS where you control one unit.
Even as a F2P game, BP looks far more interesting than Eve.
Keep having those expectations buddy, Im sure they'll serve you well in the future.
If you stand VERY still, and close your eyes, after a minute you can actually FEEL the universe revolving around PvP.
Keep dreaming,
I'm not quite sure what you meant, but whatever.
JGE and BP are looking about like what I was looking for... ship control wise in a game.
BP being F2P has me worried... and also worried JGE will never come out.
I dint like EVE very long leveling up .
F2P system not bad , i hope in this game it will released nice.
i think i prefer BP more just because its more action oriented than the slow eve pvp
lolwhat?

i just couldnt stand the so much action of targeting>use modules> watch the fireworks, i just prefer faster games with more action
Rule of MMO discussion #02: Never bait EVE players.
No matter what you're take on the game is, EVE players defend their game with more zeal than anyone else. They border on fanatical and won't accept criticism of any kind. Their inability to see other peoples point of view makes many of them appear to be practically autistic.
I would play BP over EVE, but if I gave reasons I would simply be met with a barrage of derogatory remarks and questions over my intellectual capacity.

~The problem is that most people that criticize EVE (not all, but most) dont actually give reasons. They give rants based on assumptions that are plain wrong, and based on experiences that are not a reflection of the game, but of the player himself.
That is how I see most of the criticism of EVE here.

.......I'm confused your comparing a shooter mmo to a non-one?
Introducing the best signature ever!
[signature] Best Signature [/signature]
This is like comparing apples and oranges..... its just whatever one tastes better to u
The games have similar themes...yes
But other than that -- totally different games
I would rather play BP, well because Eve wasnt appealing to me (personal preference)
Uhh... what?
None of them, BP will not be a deep experience, watch the latest videos, some tell tell signs of how shallow it is, it's going F2p for a reason.
None of the above?
Jumgpate Evolution.
Or in Wonderful Neverending Sex Land...X-Wing vs TIE-Fighter Online and/or Freespace Online. I'm not too picky.

Eve, black prophecy doesnt really have anything im interested in, i dont think the type of player that would be interested in BP would really be an Eve player either really.. tbh, with niche games, they rarely impact each other all that much anyway.
ill play both, simply because both are not even the same style of gameplay.
eve is ressource control while flying ships like the enterprize (from star trek) its more of controling large ships with a crew. the captain has to say, helsman, set route to (xyz system). engage! and then the ship goes
Black prophecy is a 1st person shooter where your ship is no bigger than an x-wing from star wars. those ships can be controled with a joystick and can turn on a dime. (lets not get into technicallities on how the enterprise was piloted with a joystick in that 1 episode on tv)
so both gameplays are completely different from eachother
nexr thread eve vs counter strike?
if you are going to VS something, make them similar (and no genre is not the only criteria)
I'm confused ... are you saying that my experience playing Eve is not a reflection of the game, that somehow my experience (playing the game) is not reason enough for me not liking the game and thereby making my opinion of the game wrong? MY experience playing the game is not assumption ... it's my experience ... it's niether wrong nor right it just is. Every comment on these forms is someones opinion ... how can that be wrong? IMO Eve has a loyal following but as far as popularity it is not a game the majority of gamers are clamoring to play (We all know what "That" game is, love it or hate it, it is what it is). I'm just saying that EvE is ... Dull (how's that for a reason). Eve is the geek of games for gamers. If you find spreadsheets and corporate one upsmanship entertaining then go for it ... just my opinion.
That being said ... What the hell is Black Prophecy ... LOL. Gonna go check it out.
K just checked out BP ... heres the rub for me alrdy. If you can't get out of your ship and run around and do stuff I'm prolly not gonna like it ... : (

That fact you find it dull, does not meant it is dull, it is an assumption based on your own experience - reflection of yours, not the game.
Saying EVE is dull is a statement with no given reasoning, and I believe it is exactly what Toquio3 had on mind.
Reason might not be the most accurate term since it has got broad definition and use but in this case, as I believe, it was used to point out lack of or invalid rational arguments.
you are asking us to compare a First Person Shooter game to a Simulation/RTS game?
EVE is a completely different animal from BP. they only share the fact that both contain space ships...in space...where player vs player combat occurs. (please to not violence my boat)
If you would like a comparision of which makes a better PVP game i would say that EVE does...based on the fact of the depth of game, player driven choice on modules, fleet choice/size. EVE is a strategy game. not a CS match like BP will be. PVP in both games is fun in its own right, but based off what ive seen of BP..its going to be pretty shallow.
If you want to violence someones boat...you cant go wrong in either game...one is just an apple...and the other is a hideous looking pineapple that still tastes badass.
I play wow so i dont have to make life choices like this
