Bregon Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I know that Eve Online is in space only and pretty much a PvP and Economy based game. But I do hope SWTOR can rival Eve when it comes to the sheer size and incredible space combat system Eve has. I know space combat is a secondary thought at launch but here's to hoping for a Eve like expansion. Yes I am getting way ahead of myself. Discuss...

gbburn Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 comparing SWTOR to EVE is like comparing Star wars to Astroids. Ohh wait the space combat in Astroids was better then SWTOR's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danw Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Sandbox vs Theme Park MMO's cannot be compared, eve would win this in every category but Story, Voice Overs, and typical limiting everything theme park type features/level systems.

Anrenrui Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Yeah you see.... the problem is.... people are comparing SWTOR to other mmo's but....... no other MMO has a heavy set storyline like SWTOR does with the implementation methods they used. So to compare it to other MMO's is kind of not really a comparison because it can not be compared to things which it is not like. The only thing it is like in some manners are "Hey! you can walk backwards and forwards! You can equip weapons!

Did you miss the memo? The space combat in TOR is nothing more than a mini game. A shooter on rails. If you came for the space combat, the force is not strong with you.

Bregon Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Lets takea step back here... All I am saying is Eve has a great SPACE COMBAT system. And the size of the Eve Universe is huge. Does the story line for Eve suck? yes.. I am just talking about Space Combat and Space "interaction" (for use of a better term). Thats all..

Sivithian Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Read the whats next post in general discussion. The developers plan on making the space system much more expansive in the future. Not sure when of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordSatoh Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 You can't compare those two. SW:TOR is a very single player story based game (MMO I guess) while EvE is just what it is Everybody vs Everybody in a sandbox you have never seen. I mean you can legaly scam people in EvE. How much more sandbox can you get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigabytes Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) ... It was added as a minigame... And EVE has a horrid story, so it already loses in my eyes. In EvE the players make the story and the story in EvE blows Bioware story out of the water with ease. Obviously you know nothing about EvE Online. You can't compare this game to EvE. SWTOR is a linear mmo clone, EvE Online is light years ahead. Edited December 13, 2011 by Gigabytes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delsana Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Um... I found the EvE system to be grossly repetitive and geared towards waiting 8 months for a skill to load... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HellPatrol Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 EVE is in no way comparable to TOR, sorry. EVE is its own and has nothing in common with WoW or TOR based MMOs. EVE is bloody outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously you know nothing about EvE Online. Obviously you somehow have the ability to peer into my life completely but without regard for the 2 years I spent playing EVE. I assure you, the story in it is terrible, and the majority of players are also some of the dreggiest you can find in society, and the back stabbing and lying and deceit... gosh you'd think we were in politics. Your opinion is noted, and my opinion remains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
