There's no problem with debate on the KBM issue, but as an EVE player I have to object to statements like "you're coming into my world." CCP are making a PS3 exclusive FPS specifically to tap a new market. EVE player opinions should not have any more weight than console player opinions -- and if anything, really, they should have a little less weight.
Ah but alas look around the forums, what you see? EVE people trying to shove their game down the throat of dust, pandering towards pc elements, rpg elements...anything but fps, and if you complain "go back to cod" "adapt or die" the last one being hypocritical based on the topic at hand. Dunno about you but im calling this game DOA, dead on arrival. Whose to blame? look around... |

Vocal minority - a phenomena well known on all forums and especially prevalent and nasty on the EVE arena.
Why don't you look around and talk to those EVE players who are trying to present their views in a respectful manner, there are quite a few. And while you are at it why don't you start with yourself - In your rush to generalize all EVE players and condemn this game you take out your frustrations on a post of an EVE player who thinks that the opinions of FPS people should have more weight... Honestly, I am not sure if I understand you correctly and I don't want to judge your intentions but you are the one who used the word: hypocrisy...
Lets talk about vocal minorioties, like the group you described, the "respectful" EVE players, using the term loosely, seems to be the minority of the minority. That on itself would scrap your own argument. Im not rushing or being generalizing, im calling it like it is, by the numbers. Im not frustrated at all, for starters I could care less of the EVE lore or whatever they try to impose on top of key game mechanics, and really havent invested myself onto it that much. And no, Im not taking a hit on the guy, actually I whoheartedly agree with him, but I let him know that unfortunately, most of the testers are not like him.
And yes I call them hypocrite by the mere e-peen bullcrap they had said since the begining hurr durr "adapt or die"... but cant adapt to a ps3 controller....really?
And that its what its gonna drive this into the ground, another thing for the OTHER EVE players, the selfrighteous ones, just cause KB/M was included at the begining doesnt make it right. Its like saying its ok that street fighter to have disk lock content or resell the same game with the extra stuff, just cause they have been doing it since the 90s.... oh **** they do think its right... |
