Eve pulling a fast one on Freelancer

Heh, it turns out that Eve will be using some Directx 9 hardware.IMO it might be because our little gem offers so much in gameplay that they are trying to up the ante.

Monthly fees = evil

I already pay enough for my connection...no more from me!

how cares about 10$ more per month, its not like that I do not pay anyway 3 times that for my sucky internet con *g*

such mmorpg servers cost money, heck I would have no trouble at all to pay a few bucks for months to help my fav fl server (which would be elite)... I know those cost money aswell. and MOST good cs/ut/whatever servers for example come for about 30-50 bucks per months.

so its not like that those games are really free anyway, its just that most player do not pay a cent for it, but some do pay, and they pay alot more mostly than just 10 bucks per month

heck imo it would be even a good idea to make some donations to maybe bargig, that the can host a 128 player freelancer server for us TLR folk.

Pretty decent grave dig there.

Maybe after I graduate, I'll have the time and money to invest in monthly-fee MMOGs. Till then, I'll be more than satisfied with FL and the like.

First off, I love FL.

With that said, after seeing the EVE beta, EVE has nothing to worry about. The game is just incredible in so many different ways. Yes its a MMOG. Yes it has a monthly fee. Yes it is one of the most revolutionary games ever. If you love FL then oh man, you will be pleasantly suprised. I'm not bashing FL. EVE just has it beat on every aspect (Ship Design/Variety,Trading,Gameplay in general).

I just hope EVE gets a good portion of the FL community because everyone seems to be really cool. I for one will be there!

By the way I just had to mention that EVE players evolve even when your not online so the timesink is non existant for the most part. Yes if you are logged in you progress faster but research,trading, etc continues even when you logged off. Trust me, I have seen the beta first hand, this game is sooooooo incredible. Anyway, that is just my opinion but I wouldn't count yourself out of EVE just yet. It IS the game to beat in the MMOG genre (IMO). Also, notice I leave off the RP in MMORPG. EVE is NOT a roleplaying game.
