Perhaps the best visuals and graphics of any EVE expansion yet - the art team have outdone themselves! Excited to see how the FPS module plays - the echoes of Dust live on!
Those new ships look incredible. That Titan... wow. Kind of Alien vibes. Can't wait to play the FPS and see how well it works and integrates with the actual action of EVE.
New players are signing up. Old ones are coming back. CCP is keeping its promises. And soon we'll see Dust settle on the planets of New Eden again. Good fucking job, CCP. Show the MMO world the soul of EVE still burns strong. o7
I'd wish there was a realistic active player count. I really tried eve last year but there's no way to stick to it. Having doubts any sort of players actually coming in droves. It's still an expensive antique living off veteran's nostalgia and sunk cost fallacies.
well you have me beet, im on a 780 lol. Slide show mode when undocking. Hoping to get a new one around christmas time but I wont be able to before the Windows 7 lockout =( @@Quaki3000
You are correct, kind of. But, it's still part of this expansion. "first strike" will be out in December, but it's only a beta. The full launch will come later.
@@Jeff55369 so then its NOT out, except the trailer CLEARLY says warzones in space AND land, as a feature tour of Havoc. if its NOT playable now then its not a feature of Havoc.
@@TheMacCloud yeah it's kind of weird, but ccp is doing some sort of narrative thing with their feature releases. I'm not defending their decision to do it that way, it's just how it is.
@@Cybrid2684 Well to be fair, I'm pretty sure everyone who has omega will get access to vanguard in December. So, it is kind of part of the expansion. Just in a weird round about way.
It’s a separate game that will be connected through the eve universe. Over time it’s supposed to become more part of / have more influence on Eve Online. It is supposed to be part of the pirate war against the empire forces for example.
@@Montenegro651 Ah OK. I'm old enough to remember they talked about this before. Sad that it can simply swap you from a to be when you land and/or doc and use an airlock. Anyway, appreciate the FYI.
@@grungyape that would be sick! But Jesus, could you imagine the scope of a game like that!? Perhaps a brand new game built for it from the ground up. Or who knows, maybe some wild tech in the future 🤷♂️
@@Montenegro651 I kid you not I swear it was talked about, even advertised, that it was coming years on years ago. It would be, but honestly, it's no different than No Man's Sky or Bethesda's thing. Just like going through a Jump Gate, the landing process is automated, and poof, new servers! Then again, I'm no game developer!
Genuinely hoping JIta gets fucked up, but probs won't happen due to how busy it is + server strain. I imagine smaller markets like Hek and Rens will fall (RIP Minmatar).
Wasnt there an EVE based FPS back in the day I remember playing it :D Cool they are bringing it back. The Pirates look awesome. Too bad this game is way too time consuming :D
I'm confused. I signed up for a newsletter and says Van isnt out yet. Seems like it's the fps but this makes it sound like a module already in place ? Does that make Havoc like a wow expansion ? The link says Van should be out Dec.
looks cool but do i have the time and energy to attempt again to get into this game.. not really. not that easy to get into either.. and im a solo casual :(
I have similar thoughts. I have tried so many times to get into this game, but I have always left with disappointment. I don't have anyone in my friend group to play with and I don't have time to get more serious with people I don't know, because I can only play games a couple of hours per week. It's a shame because I really want to like this game. It ticks all the boxes for me, except a big minus with this game, the PvP. I hate always-on PvP because it leads to ganking and griefing, something I've encountered a lot in this game.
I've been in Eve now for 4 years as a solo casual. I make plenty of currency for my fun. It's not actually that hard to learn... hard to master though as there are so many possibilities. That's what keeps it fun and interesting. So many ways to play, so many things to do. It's a sandbox.
@@oliver_twistor It keeps you on your toes while doing PvE. Means you can't just set up and AFK. And in a game that is purposely extremely hands off, all sorts of things can and will happen.
its the sort of game that i need to find a local meet up, sit down with for 6hrs, learn some. then set on my way... but that not going to happen@@mycroft16 i may reroll character though and see if i can just be an explorer and miner
@@oliver_twistor plenty of tools and methods to avoid ganking. A disposable alpha alt scout, intel channels, friends who will scout for you, hauling services like Red Frog, etc. Any ship can fit an interdiction nullifier and warp core stabilizer to avoid bubble camps. I just slipped away from a camp the other day in an industrial fitted thusly and filled with 300m isk worth of goodies. Planetary Interaction is a bit challenging to set up, but once it is, can easily provide passive income of 300-500 million isk per month or more (if all 3 of your toons mine planets). It only takes a few minutes per toon to reset and collect once or twice per week.
Oh Bollocks - I played Eve for years and FINALLY managed to kick that habit some years back, I've seen all the update and though tempted, it wasn't enough to make me "fall off the wagon", until now. Anyone got a soft mattress for me to land on?
So if I don't want to be a pirate, from a RP perspective, what is there for me to do? I'm in the Gallente Militia engaged in FW. What changes for me now?
Nothing. Carry on as usual, but expect more disruptive behavior from the pirate factions. I have heard they are attacking player citadels, for example.
ccp can you give us some thing we can do with the Stolen Goods Commodities like handing them in for lp or something so ive got a station container load and it's driveing me up the wall?...
Theoretically Serpentis is a under faction of Angel - As far as i recall the Serpentis ships we fly in game is attributed to Guardian Angels - which is an Angel Cartel wing in charge of guarding Serpentis - who really are just drug manufactures x)
I actively played EvE from 2009 to 2019. For about 3 years, I only log in for about 20 minutes once a month. I remember when 50k people was logged in at the same time, now I don't know how many active players there are.
I have been in the game since June 2003 (with 230 mil sp and 3 jump freighters). I left. Why did I leave? Because, they moved to a "pay to win" platform and raised the price. Nothing says get lost more than that.
Lol there are bots in the chat, must be lacking people. I played eve eve forces you to PVE and I just want to mine and have fun so I took my money and left. I keep getting invites on how they listened to the players but nope same ol pew pew
Eve doesn't "force" you to do anything dude. You can become a billionaire doing market trades and never even undock. There is a sliding scale of risk vs reward, so if you want the big prizes, you have to risk big too. If you want to play it safe, that is valid, but don't expect to get mega rich hiding under CONCORD's skirts.
The adrenaline rush from PvP is like nothing else in gaming. Has kept me and tens of thousands of others hooked for 20 years. Maybe you are just a sucky gamer?
@@LoserInChief I like being able to drive my ships. Not click 10 tiny icons before I go into battle. And then of course the lag if in battle. Oh wait! Don't they call that time dilation?
They have ruin the game years ago. More expansive and less fun to play. Cant use 2 accounts at once easily. So stopped playing,i do like this new expansion . in the video. so am curious....
Nice, also one must take note on the new settings page that has been turned from a compact and efficient UI into a "modern" screen space wasting, time consuming bland UI. 👏😒 Congratulations!
