EVE Online

Post by McLovin1t »

I have a few questions about the online Sci Fi MMO EVE Online.

1) Is the game fun/rewarding in the amount of time playing (1-3 hours/day)
2) Is there fun PvP and relatively easy leveling?
3) Is it more Group or Solo based?
4) Is combat fun and/or strategic?
5) Is it worth the P2P?

1) YES. I've been playing for over a year, and it just keeps getting MORE fun everyday.
2) The PvP is EPIC, and the leveling is very... uhhh... unique. I'd start reading up on it.
3) Solo at first, but quickly turns into group. After you get into it, it's all group based.
4) OMG yes, it's extremely strategic, and it's quite fun once you start contributing a lot.
5) YES, YES, YES, YES... and did I say yes?

Fun Fact: Eve is considered to be more strategic than chess.

Here are some encouraging videos for PvP:

open the map(F10}

type in kisolo and plot a course there, you can auto pilot unless you go through lowsec then i dont recommend it

Loved teh game, just didnt have the money to keep playing atm. Was in goons before i quit. All my friends left that guild to join another small goon fleet corp


Might go back someday.

A nice starter guide. Look into getting into Eve University. You can get ALL of your questions answered, along with take cool "classes" on all the more difficult aspects of the game.

ya trial seems boring, but those vids of the huge fights are so frking cool lol. I like all the flashing lights and stuff, but I don't want to play for a year especially with the cost per month, and still not even be up to half of that coolness level lol. I'm playing GWars right now and it's fun, but starting to get a bit repetitive, so I want to try out a really good MMO!
