EVE Online may have been around since 2003 (today marks its six-year anniversary), but developer CCP hopes to attract new players with its recent expansion, EVE Online: Apocrypha. The game takes place in the New Eden solar system, run by empires of different races all working towards peace and progress within the galaxy.
Seminal space sim Eve Online built a game economy so intricate it has been responsible for the most elaborate player run scams in gaming history. But in the game's infancy before the EBANK embezzlement, before the BoB takedown or the GHSC Heist, there was Nightfreeze.
So he was smart enough to coax these ppl out of all this money, but not smart enough to use another character to do it? I understand it may have been more difficult, but we are to believe he just gave it away.
In another major case of corporate espionage, embezzlement, and political deceit, an EVE Online player has stolen $13,110 dollars worth of in-game corporate assets.
I wish I could get into this game.. That learning curve though... Too much for me to want to spend the time... Star Citizen will likely be the game I go to since most people will be brand new as well.
It was a pretty damn good choice when the devs decided to let these kinds of things happen in the universe and go unpunished. There are some pretty cool stories about events that have happened in EVE.
I sit, nervously waiting, with my hands on the controls. I listen intently, but all I can hear is my ragged breathing. My head is on a constant swivel, urgently searching the space around me for enemies; searching to make sure I’m in my assigned position. The call goes out, “I’ve got point! Bridge is up! Jump! Jump! Jump!” Hurriedly, I try and follow orders, not knowing what might happen next.
I really want to play EVE but it seems like such a commitment that I wouldn't be able to keep up.
