“Unique and challenging”
Written on: 31/12/2011 by isnotPrimary (2 reviews written)
Unique and challenging Warning: This is not a game, it’s a hobby Eve requires intelligence, research and dedication. There are long hours of going hmmm, what if… and a very steep learning curbs (In my opinion, everyone is a noob to some aspect of the game, its massive). It’ll make you think and teach you new things. You make your own fun, and there is so much choice. PVE, PVP, drug trading, space altering wormholes, community, culture, history, warfare, spies, betrayals, drama and... (read more)

Written on: 06/04/2008 by rabbitfufu (1 review written)
This game is based on physics. It is all math based in my opinion. Compare that to so many fantasy games that are based on imaginary races/environments/magic. It then all becomes a burden on the developer to make it all hang together in a a realistic way. EVE does not have that problem, they are based on the basics of physics. This make the game real and relives the dev's of having to invent all that. They focus on story and game balance.
I played hard core EVE 3-12 hours a day for 3 solid...

I would not recommend Eve Online to a friend because I wouldn't see them for a couple of years until we had an intervention or something. I would recommend it or even buy it for someone I didn't like! (read more)

The overall concept is excellent
However, EVE Online is not working. From the point I signed on and got the game up and running I had one week that the game was working properly. Then the company had various up-grades? Patches - sever connections, new compter,and more patches.
Each time sever failer, screens freezing up, right and left clicks that don't work, glitches in programs, default changes inside the game that were not disclosed - were happing more frequently. I lost three ships...

Eve Online Be one of four races, each with its own in depth history. Specialize yourself in one of many trades, with the option of changing at any time. Or you can be a jack of all trades. It has been awarded many titles for graphics and game play, with regular expansions to increase playability further. "EVE is a world far away from mankind's original habitat, planet Earth. How far away, and where, no one knows. Humans got there through a natural wormhole, and gazing upon a sky never... (read more)

EVE Online (www.eve-online.com) is at the moment the most popular online game. At peak times there are nearly 13,000 people online at once playing this game who all interact in a very large EVE universe.
I will start by getting the graphics and sound of the way, as these are the least important thing in this game. The graphics are superb, a good framerate and some amazing lighting effects. The sound is what you expect from a space game, basic laser sounds, but has some very nice realisitic...

Where do I start with this review, because this game is MASSIVE!
Well, let's start at the beginning. EVE is a Sci-fi based MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) that is set in a new region of space that man colonized thousands of years ago, after finding a natural wormhole from their own region of space. Unfortunately, after a few decades the wormhole closed, stranding those that had already crossed into the new region of space and forcing them to find their own way of...

Written on: 13/08/2004 by mxmusa (1 review written)
Been playing EVE Online for 3 months, and it is the best multiplayer game I have personally played. The game starts out a bit slow, but the reason is that you have to learn a lot before you become a real mover and shaker. The game is so deep and there are so many things you can do that it is simply amazing. Still today I am finding new stuff to do. The PVP combat is hardcore, but the nice thing is you don't have to do that if you don't want to. So if you are looking for an intelligent... (read more)

Ugleb's Response to Icegoblin's Review
Written on: 04/08/2005
This is certainly the MMO that has appealed to the most, and rarely disapoints. There are several 'technical' attractions for me that put EVE-Online ahead of the other games out there.
<br>
<br>The game is regularly and constantly being expanded and developed, more contant comes in, new ships, game mechanics updated, the map itself recently underwent significant changes, with new routes being created and some removed. Players can now claim soverignty over star systems and build their own space stations. The developers release major new upgrades and overhauls so significant that they are best compared to expansion packs. And they are free, you don't have to go out and buy another box to access the new areas or something.
<br>
<br>EVE is played on a single 'shard',in other MMO's you play on a server with a number of other players who also picked that server shard. In EVE-Online everyone plays on the same map together, the community isn't split up. If you hear about a certain group of players, you can go find them.
<br>
<br>In most MMO's in order to progress and learn new skills you have to complete certain tasks. Kill a moster, gain XP. Get a certain amount of XP and you level up. EVE has no level system, and your skills develop over time. If you go to bed your character continues to develop. You just focus on acquiring cash to buy equipment or implants which speed up your learning time. I find this takes away the xp grind and is great for those players who dont have alot of time to spend bashing rats.
<br>
<br>I hope those points help to give a better idea of how the game works and some of its unique points. Give it a go, it's good fun. :)
