For being a sandbox, I don't feel this has much freedom. Wish I could get into it, but I can't.

@(Unverified) Suggest you give it another trial. This latest patch has improved the game a good bit (in different ways)

@Ranxerox I probably will, since it seems a good game to get into. I guess the complexity and the fact I could lose all my hard earned stuff in a second deter me.

@(Unverified) Yeah I feel the same. I've got a month of play sitting on my Steam account. Just not sure if/when I ever want to activate it. (but it was only $5)

To be honest the most alluring part of eve is the freedom to try and restrict the freedom of others ;D

Seriously? Cryptic keywords in an overloaded search window? I've played text-based MUDs with a clearer interface - but not for about 15 years or so, because everyone's moved on to things like search fields in GUIs.

I've been wondering whether CCP's come-to-Jesus moment was a true change in their understanding of what players wanted and needed, or if they were just panicking and pulling their task list off the forum threads. I think this pretty solidly locks it in as the latter. They still don't have a clue.

Do you play EVE Online? I don't think so.

Yeah, hardy-har-har. I've played MUDs too, but I think you've missed the point. Boolean operators in place of a billion search fields is a more elegant fix. As someone who actually plays the game, this is a pretty welcome feature.

First, Eve is not a sandbox!! Sandboxes let you create something new and unique.

Next, Eve is a great game if you like realistic SciFi. If you only want fae and dwarves, then no, if you want science then yes!

I like being able to find what I have in inventory, never knew why it was ever not functional. Fixed a bug, nothing big, just CCP doing there job again.

Kudos!

According to eve-offline.net amount of online players continue to fall despite latest effort of CCP to save face after failed WiS expansion and monoclegate. And SWTOR even wasn't launched yet: from that I know about 20% of active EVE subscribers from my alliance already purchased SWTOR - 700 out of 3500 signed for SW guild(s) (limit is 500 players per guild thus there will at least 2 guilds right from launch of SW).

As owner of 3 frozen multi-years-old accounts I hope it won't end with CCP filing for bankruptcy.
