I'd watched the episode 2 weeks before I played the game. It's pretty accurate. It was terrible in the TV show too -- thus the charm.

Eve Online or Star Trek Online??

I've played Star Trek Online, though I haven't played in a couple of months (I'll probably get back to playing it at some point, though). The space combat is very fun (especially the fleet action ones), but the ground missions were mediocre gameplay wise (I did like the fleet one, though). The game seemed unpolished."I read a book twice as fast as anybody else. First, I read the beginning, and then I read the ending, and then I start in the middle and read toward whatever end I like best." - Gracie Allen

EVEs great but a little time consuming. As an economy the market system is quite interesting albeit simple. Its also quite easy to fund your monthly fees byt playing the market alone as well as making RL cash. So it doesnt have to complete waste of time either.Que l’Univers n’est qu’un défaut dans la pureté de Non-être.

EVE is the best MMO, I have been playing since late 2005.
The best parts of PVE are Epic Missions, COSMOS, Wormholes, and Exploration Complexes.
The best part of EVE is the PVP.
I am part of an anti-pirate alliance which regularly hunts pirates in the Minmatar Republic.

I've tried many times, but I can't get into EVE. Just too boring, slow, plodding."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I actually think that EVE is a lot more of a social game than other MMOs.

Trying to explain EVE Online to this group is like trying to explain Nuclear Physics to a 5 year old.
Either you like it or you don't. It can be as boring or as interesting as you make it. Its about as pure of a sandbox type MMO as you can get. The game is what you make it, if its boring, its because you made it boring
I don't know anything about STO really except it not being finished seems to be a universal opinion not just here, but anywhere I see folks discussing it.

You call it a "sandbox" game, I call that a euphemism. It's true that there's many people out there spending 12 hours a day playing Eve and having a blast, but that's because THEY make a game that simply uses the EVE Engine.
The EVE game itself is horrifically boring. Why bother putting in the mission system, faction standings, etc when it's the most unfun, uncreative, dreadfully boring thing on the face of this planet?
I think it's criminal to pay monthly fees, considering the ineptitude I've heard about CCP in running the game, considering how little content there actually is, etc. What exactly are you paying $15 a month for? Have you ever thought of that?"The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Good for you Asher, I am glad you discovered its boring. Just stay the **** out of the game, we don't want your kind playing it anyway.*"Winning is still the goal, and we cannot win if we lose (gawd, that was brilliant - you can quote me on that if you want.

The reason it's hard to explain is you can't explain it. The reason you can't explain it is because it's not fun."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Do you even know what SAD means? What the basic premises are? Probably not, and thats a fairly simple concept. And its almost impossible to explain or appreciate it unless you have been on the recieving or giving end. I had people explain it to me before I experienced it, and didn't really comprehend, until it actually happened to me.
Either you get into the game, and explore its infinite possibilities, or you don't. You obviously didn't.*"Winning is still the goal, and we cannot win if we lose (gawd, that was brilliant - you can quote me on that if you want. And con - I don't want to see that in your sig."- Beta
