Thanks for the advice!  
I usually don’t expect much out of anything or anyone ( no disappointment ) but so far I’m having fun in EVE so I’m looking forward to trying FW once they update it.  
I am also dying to try PI but I need more money and training time for that.

There’s a bunch of ex EVE players in Ashes of Creation

There you will be able to bash player structures and even bash entire cities making the city a loot pinata. When a city is bashed it goes from a highsec region to become a null sec… the region is declared a conflict zone and everybody is free to kill and steal

There’s also guild wars, equivalent to our wardecs

I’m not sure if we can bring EVE players back, i think AoC will absorb a ton of EVE players

That’s another problem… if EVE progresses slowly gives it more time for other games to show up, I think AoC will put another nail in EVE’s coffin… there’s EVE players in the AoC’s forum already

I wish Mechwarrior Online had been more like a combination of Mech4 and EvE and less like a steaming heap of bantha poodu

It’s medieval fantasy, which I dont like in general… but AoC is on the ball at this!

AoC is becomming the closest thing to EVE there is, it’s not scifi thats the main difference  
The creator was an Ultima Online player and I heard he played EVE too, AoC has many similarities to EVE

In AoC if the miners farm everything, they will make the land barren!!! HAHAHAHAH  
They will have to go to somewhere else!!!

I am proposing to the devs that the mayor of the region activates a policy that turns all miners suspect if they mine something that was prohibited

Many people liked the idea, I believe the devs will do it  
In AoC if don’t harvest something for days, it will all regrow and the land wont be barren then

So many pvp tree hugging hippies will be out there saving our forests from bot aspirancy

Players can become mayors and control the policies by quick emergencial actions or by policies voted by the citizens… a citizen is someone who has a structure in the region (node)

I’m a bit out of touch but from what I see there needs to be more ways to interact with other players. I’d like to see some kind of Social game involving the portraits/bios. Maybe some kind of 'miring points you can give for eve ‘idols’ as you fly around would be fun, but you have to be in system to add your upvote to a portrait. Have regional favorites and of course New Eden champ.

It might also be interesting if you could drop agents onto PI sites to interact with them somewhat. Maybe drop a mole who would funnel a small amount of resources out, or a gang of thugs to destabilize things. Of course you could also drop counter agents and security to counteract this. I know DUST was supposed to fight over planets but maybe some kind of cargo game instead with worker/militia/religion themed agents cancelling each other out would be fun.

I went to their website. They say it is still in alpha testing and you need a special invitation to play the game. They are willing to sell me in-game merch though!

To get old players back you need remote day jobs, so that people don’t have to sit in the office 24/7. I am IT and I have some time to play. Wish I had more work to do. I played a lot as a student. Campaign recruit students. EVE is much better than smoking.

Yeap, still in alpha!

I guess people will have to stay in EVE until the open beta comes up, enjoying the last scrapes o EVE is what we can do for now
