> [@Teckos\_Pech](#): > > The essential core concept of EVE Online is that it is full time PvP in a sandbox environment. We know this is not quite correct (i.e. it’s wrong). Here’s how we know: FULL TIME PVP would exclude non-PVP activities, like, uhhhhh, mining? And, a “sandbox” is literally an environment, and the environment doesn’t have any significance in describing “the essential core concept of EVE Online” unless . . . wait for it . . . person-versus-ENVIRONMENT is a core concept of the game. From this, we can easily conclude that the statement isn’t meant to be interpreted literally. So, now to go about interpreting it . . . ---

I’ve seen quite a lot of people here and in other threads claim that “eves development has been too focused on pvp” and that its a problem. but lets actually take a look at that shall we, what developments have we had in the past few years PVE: moon mining changes addition of refineries reaction changes pirate sotiyo’s pirate FOB’s abyssal deadspace rorqual changes introduction of citadels. drifters updated to include new boosters project discovery updated. new npc sites resource wars new capitals to build PI quality of life improvements pvp citadels to fight over changes to the sov system rebalances to t3d’s and a couple other ships some new capitals to use triglavin ships (acquired through pve) pvp abyssals. seems to me like for the past 3 years at least the development has been leaning quite heavily towards the pve side of things, with pretty much everything on the pvp side of things being either balance passes, or stuff that was tied to pve as well. ---

Not really… High end pve like fob’s and abyssal space are no mainstream content and this is the problem… Nearly all of the pve “content” they created are high end stuff that will NOT attract new players. And to make it worse those are half baked and not even close to be mainstream content because of the sole FACT they make it even POSSIBLE to be assaulted by the PVP crap at the exit. Abyssal is,basicly,more of a PVP content than PVE simply out of the fact that you can scan the entrance/exit… And why? Because of the whining of the PVP faction that don’t wanted staged PVE. ---

You are REALLY this stupd are you? I offered you a PROOF of my words by taking a dev into the boat and you deny the offer because of what? Because of all devs are lying?
