The version that I bought the Special Edition.
My computer is a dual-core 6750
4 GB RAM
Windows XP Prof. SP3
NVidia GTX260 - 896 MB
In order to keep a bit short but crisp.
1. Installation and patch updates went smoothly
2. Character Creation provides enough to miss a good look.
Since you always sitting all the time in the cockpit, plays the Charoptik from my perspective anyway a untergordnete role
3. graphics are really great, did everything to look very nice on Max and it is.
Sometimes I look at again and again my spaceship from all sides, because it looks so nice easy :)
4. learning phase
The learning curve is here a little longer, because this game offers a lot of game content.
However, when times several hours dealing with his Char, the market, the whole menus, obtained but a very good overview.
I personally like the available menu structure very well, especially since you can control things from many areas.
Means, I look at my order details and can already set the course for my destination there.
Ultimately Eve offers a very high comfort function if you have first looked through the entire menu structure.
I like it very much.
There are certainly a lot to learn for me yet, but I'm steadily forward.
5. gameplay
This is very high with me, because you can be no pressure here to make quick perform something (blunt farms etc.)
The game lives simply told of the time.
One enters the universe with a character who lives there.
There is no Endcontend like in other games.
Here lives and you just play in a dynamic environment, which is partly influenced by the player.
Who wants to get by here as a fighter is just have fun as that the act would rather handled with shares or as a raw material supplier.
That's the beauty in EVE, it simply provides many ways his life / Enwicklung in this game to make.
You have to learn to use things they can.
The higher the level of ability, the longer it takes (temporarily, hours, days, weeks, etc.)
The game is nothing for people who think they can achieve their Max here in a few days, weeks.
This game is something to enjoy, to relax, to live (of course in addition to the existing RL :))
I have the first time be able to play without feeling pressure and obligations again.
Especially since I have now found a Cooperation (corresponds to the term for clan / guild) that are very adult (aged from 30 :))
It is therefore also very relaxed and stress free in the TS together to.
6. Long-term Motivation
Here is very good given because everything develops as in real life with our time.
Due to the enormous variety you can play this game over several years.
It is not comparable with games like Warhammer or other which deals primarily with farms dull, only to get the Maxausrüstung or NEN Renown.
Everything here is very varied and dynamic
Skills need will partially bought here and trained for hours, days, weeks, etc., as in real life :)
7 fights
When I the first time I had a fight denied me get used.
I thought I was a young pilot who controls the flyer as then in Elite or Freelancer.
I was wrong, I can only say Cpt. Kirk sends his regards.
One sees his spaceship from the exterior and gives the orders, which are then executed.
For this purpose, it may include ranzufliegen on a ship to orbit it.
Commands to fire rockets or recharge the shield.
The fight in EVE's different, but not bad, just different than usual.
Meanwhile it goes with me and I am looking forward on it sometime Cpt. Kirk being in a large warship.
Currently I'm flying a frigate of the Caldari and find this quite stylish ^^
8. Conclusion
No, this game has no potential, it has already been implemented and this is a finished masterpiece.
For players who are patient, feel free to build for a long time and some are capable of learning, for EVE will be the right one.
For games that are looking for something quick and farms the blunt love ...
Tjo goes WoW or Warhammer Online games ^^
