EVE Online Gold [Apr 23, 2003, 10:18 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Simon & Schuster Interactive sends news that EVE Online: The Second Genesis,
their MMO space game, has gone gold. They say the NDA on information about the
game has been officially dropped as of today, and the official launch is slated
for May 6 (sorry for messing up the date at first). They also send along a
batch of five new screenshots, and word that the game's producer, Mike
"Campion" Wallis will be in the EVE Online IRC Channel today at 5:00
PM EDT to discuss the announcement. The chat will be conducted on the server
stratics.frws.com in the channel #eve-online.
Well, what makes me laugh about the people 'defending' EVE's premature release is that the response's are:
1) It's an MMORGP, it's ok if it's released running like garbage.
- An old and tired out excuse. This is what? The 7 or 8th MMORPG done? That excuse was vaild for maybe UO and EQ, the rest of these 'games' should have enough research from previous dev's to know what works.
2) It's not a mining simulator, you can do a ton of stuff.
- Yeah, well please at some point and time tell me.
3) Oh, EVE is soooo innovative.
- And what separates it from UO/EQ/AC/AC2/DoAC/AO/E&B etc??
Answer these simple questions and maybe you may make a point, but till then it's just but, but , but....
And thats their whole foundation that 'they' keep re-iterating
