EVE Online: The Chinese Exodus To Tranquility

imageEVE Online: The Chinese Exodus To Tranquility

One of EVE Online’s most unique and heavily advertised features is the fact that everything within it takes place on just one server. Since 2006, however, that hasn’t been entirely true, with the launch of EVE China separating that region of the game off from the rest of the world. This isn’t unusual, with massive games like World of Warcraft and League of Legends also having their own China bound localisations and servers, in order to reach government approval in the region. For EVE Online however, it provided a fascinating mirror of a sandbox, as Tranquility and Serenity developed in parallel.

    You can’t tell me that PvE gameplay will ever be able to equal or surpass the endless possibilities of Player vs Player gameplay.

    Only in EVE. CCP never knew what they had, it was always player made gamer's paradise. In fact CCP tried very hard to mess it all up with scamming devs, stupid decisions like supers etc.

    I'm glad its one relevant server now as EVE is on its deathbed. This will make it last a bit longer.

    No one has ever said that. It's basic math.

    Eve Online proves the fallacy of that statement, it has PVP, but to say that the PVE is somehow more limited than the PVP, you don't know Eve. :/

    The meta game of EvE is always so exciting to follow. I would love a fantasy mmo around the same concept. Right now there is only Albion Online but that doesn't seem to have the same standard.

    games been dead to most old player due to the game having bad changes after bad changes not all were bad just most which started round 2008. game went fron 60k player online to 30k within a couple months cant remember what year that was in but it happened and has never got back up there. when they added plex was a killer made the game pay to win, then with the addition of skill injectors it is truly pay to win now. no effort,skill or time required to ship up just swipe the credit card. does not help that evey patch in the last year has been designed to kill ships and to nerf isk making to increase plex sales.

    Eve out of the gate was total rubbish,how it remained alive this long baffles me.
    So i look at the obvious,so many just feel like they need to have a space game,a pvp game and there was literally zero competition.

    So i thought ok maybe if it makes enough money over time CCP will make it into a great game.
    LMAO at that notion,5 years....10 years CCP had loads of time,loads of money but no brain to make the game a AAA game.I would argue Eve is not even a AA game because a AA game would have the assets/content but maybe not implemented very well,it has neither.
    IMO CCP gave up looking to improve on the template,just stick to selling plex,likely involved with ISk sales as well,stick to what has been making them money.

    I think i am also in the same boat,i would love to have a quality game to fly around planets in various ships,see different colonies,unlock new crafts,technology as i explore but seeing what SC is doing,i will be long dead before i see a AAA space game,NOBODY is even remotely close and Eve is worth giving up on completely.

    I disagree that PLEX is P2W. The point of PLEX is in fact, to NOT pay.

    As for Skill Injectors, well, I'm glad they taper off as you gain more and more skillpoints. They may be good for new players that decide they want to stay in EVE and they can catch up. They are bad for players that have multiple accounts.

    Also, no matter how many millions of SP a player has, most likely, you're going to be flying in a frig or cruiser anyways, most of the time.

    Packing is always a hectic process 


    Any business that spams random game forums about their services probably isn't worth a fuck to do buisness. The word buisness and service is used loosely because you're surely a scammer anyhow.
