Originally by: Kogh Ayon For the most people who playing EVE, like me, I assume, are fans of spaceships and science fantasy. We quit WOW for this game, not for the EVE saves time, not for the EVE get better reality in design, not for the EVE has heavy punishment in combats.
Those are all many reasons people enjoy EVE.
Originally by: Kogh Ayon We are coming for spaceships with advanced equipments(machines), the lasers, the colorful and/or powerful weapons, and then, drive these powerful machines to fight, maybe with players, maybe with computers.
Still in EVE.
Originally by: Kogh Ayon We are coming to build our small sites, cities, colonies in the great universe. Maybe come with factories but not purely factories.
Still in EVE. Unless you mean actually interacting with those structures beyond the space phase, well that would be...in the Incarna department...
Originally by: Kogh Ayon We are coming to explore, to contact with the aliens and unknown creatures and phenomenon.
Not in EVE and would never work in an mmo period. Within a few days every single type of alien or phenomenon would be discovered and documented by players. It would then be compiled into a guide explaining all of their benefits and the best way to find them.
Originally by: Kogh Ayon Also, as a feature of almost all mmo games, we would like to fight as guilds, fight for the countries, and get glories for the fights we made.
All of that is still in EVE and I daresay the major selling point of the game.
Originally by: Kogh Ayon Maybe they are just simple phrases, but I worry if you just forget it in the long period of developing EVE, forget what originally motivated the players come to the game. It's a really long-lived mmo game, but I could not say it is a very good game still. What the game need is more players, not those bots in arvsa, ummoka and irju, but those real players who can only play 2 to 5 hours each day.
1. Argue that EVE needs to pull in more players 2. Assert that to do so CCP should focus development on areas that interest the current playerbase 3. Fail to see the logic problem
Not that I don't want to see more resources go into the spaceship game but if you want to pull in a new audience you don't appeal to your current one. You figure out why that new audience is reluctant to play your game and you fix that issue.
Originally by: Kogh Ayon There are many things to do to attract more real players, make the new players easier to survive and get better user interfaces. There should be 10 more times as the players now who would like to play a spaceship game, could adapt to the rules of EVE because they would not be more stupid than those noobs you can find all around.
Improve the UI I can agree on but the game is way too carebear as it is and the new tutorials do a sufficient amount of hand holding.
Originally by: Kogh Ayon Back to the topic, would anybody come to the EVE because it gets a nice role play feature? Maybe it would satisfy some old players, but I bet a simple but different ship skin would be 10 times more attractive than a delicate human model.
Actually yes, yes they would. The vast majority of people I talk to who didn't like the game list "Just being a spaceship" as one of their primary complaints.
