Free Eve online addon pack out in a few days.

An expansion pack for free???

Thats strange! Its funny how some companies can recognise and reward their online customers whilst others charge additional money for their expansion packs. Cough..WOW...cough.

But as long as people are silly enough to pay!
 
There have been many Eve expansions over the years - all for free.

What I would like from Eve is one simple thing:

Single man fighters that you can control with a joystick (proper twitch)

It'd bring all the awesomeness that is currently Eve and add some XWing/Tie Fighter style game play.
 
The devs did talk about letting pilots fly fighters in twitch format with a joystick. But I bet that will be after planet landing and walking around star base’s. So not any time soon.

They actually doing those things? Planets + Walking aboot?
 
“aint really free at all, seeing as u pay each month out”
It is free because first you’re not paying for the content. Almost all other online games make you pay on top of the monthly fee. If you where playing EQ2, Wow, SWG or many others this type of add-on pack would cost extra money.

As free trail accounts also get the add-on pack for free its fair to say its free.
 
i'm so bored of eve but I keep paying the monthly fee :confused: can't wait for one off the many mmo coming out soon :D
 
what would be nice to see in eve is that when attacking someone you can attack various points of the ship like knocking out their missile launchers, engines etc, only problem is if your on the receiving end of the pound in, chances are you could just be hanging around in space with a disabled ship and people laughing their heads of
 
”you are pottsey in game? click (passive tanking shield record guy)”
Yes that’s me.

That’s the long term goal and is one of the reasons they are slowing down combat. Another reason is so you can overload/heat modules for that little bit of extra juice.

If you go to patch notes and drawing board or was in development? One of the links has info but no time frame. I dont think it will be any time soon.
 
just been reading through the dev blog, there is a fair few ideas, although not 100% about the idea of longer battles, when your in a pvp war, im in rise alliance myself and at times gangs averge of about 60+ ships, when you got that many ships running and attacking at the same time, game lags like anything and battles do last, except when some muppet gang leader "accidently" gang warps 20 people into a warp bubble, but thats another story
