Hey all,
I just learned about three forthcoming EVE enhancements that could make this game even MORE addictive (if that is possible).
First, it has been rumored/discussed/vaguely-hinted-about-by-the-devs that the forthcoming Trinity enhancements will include:
1) Planetary installations! That's right, you will soon be able to build structures on the planets as well as in orbit. By inference, this would mean that planetary exploration will be slowly working its way into the game.
2) Take a walk: You will soon be able to leave you ship and walk around space stations! It seems you might soon be able to walk around ships as well. This is called 'ambulation' and an alpha build can be seen here (http://www.tentonhammer.com/index.php?q=node/620).
3) EVE: ASCENSION: Quote from EON:
Anyone who has played one of the Homeworld games will remember its epic fleet battles, with hundreds of fighters, corvettes and battleships trading laser fire across the billowing folds of deep space. Well now, thanks to the efforts of a small team of coders and artists, the massive EVE universe is being condensed, blended and trimmed to fit the mechanics of one of the best real-time strategy games ever made. EVE: Ascension will be the result of EVE and Homeworld's coming together, and we chat with the project leader about the stresses, strains and ambitions behind EVE's biggest fan project.
