Everyone is always worried about "being behind". It's true, the player with the most skill points has the advantage on paper, and you never really can "catch" that player as far as training goes. No matter what, they'll always be ahead of you.

"WoW clone" exists due in part because WoW is largely responsible for exposing mmorpgs to what I would consider to be the "mainstream".
Before WoW, from what I've observed, it wasn't everyone and their brother who even knew what an MMO was. I hes…
This thread really is pointless. The fact is, there's nothing new under the sun. This game was inspired by that game, which was inspired by another game, which was inspired by an earlier game, which was inspired by kids playing pretend in the back…

I agree, it may be too little too late. I put alot of faith in AoC. I WANTED it to be the only game I played for the next 5+ years. Then it got here. Tortage was amazing, and I thought "wow, the hype was all true. I'm home!" and then ....... it…

Firstly, there was no question asked (other than in the title of the thread). The short version of his post was "I hate eve because there's no point in having fat lewtz if you can't strut around in it"
Basically what he's saying is, being looked …
There's no law that says once you're in an alliance, you're stuck. It's fairly common for people to group up with other people they have no official bond to.
Hang out in any system for more than a day, and you'll begin to interact with the native…
As a long time player of EVE, I personally could not care less about "graphically engaging" my fellow pilots. In fact, being graphically stimulated takes a long back seat to performance. In EVE, your overview becomes your world and those little ic…
EVE's open endedness is simultainiously its greatest strength and its greatest weakness.
You have infinite freedom to play the game any way you wish. You may mine, rat (hunt NPCs), manufacture, research, transport, run missions, freelance, pirat…
