Just as the thread title says.

What is the status on this, either by CCP announcements, or have there been any leaks regarding any of the modes.

From the Gathering Forces Trailer it seems like there may have been some sort of mode developed like that, or perhaps a type of controled drone or something (just my wild speculation).

Im very interested in this. What will players be doing in PvE? What will game modes consist of? How will these modes affect player stats, SP accrual, ISK gathering, and FW and planetary conquest.

Im very much so hoping that we will be able to gain both ISK and SP in this game mode, it will allow newer players to test our build and equipment settings. However in a mode like this players would not be able to pad their KDR's as they arent going up against players and would only have Deaths applied to their stats.

Even so I would probably spend a lot of time in this mode with corp mates just honing basic tactics and working on core skills and I think this would be a huge addition to increasing the enjoyability of this game.

That being said I know absolutely nothing about it and would like to get all the available info thats out there together for my corp.

Has CCP confirmed anything about this for the May 6th Uprising build? Will they be announcing such in Dev Blogs or Forum Announcements?

Thanks for your time guys, Cheers.

I hope this is coming in the next build. PVE needs to be in sooner rather than later, it's an important part of the basic game.

Vaerana Myshtana Bojo's School of the Trades 526	Posted - 2013.03.28 12:47:00 - [4] - Quote My understanding is that PVE will initially focus on Rogue Drone (not Rouge Drones) infestations in districts. The "robot monsters" section of the Gathering Forces trailer showed that. I can only hope that means it will be in the Uprising expansion. Probably not, though, which makes me sad. --- In an aside, we once had an infestation of Rouge Drones in Cistuvaert. The darn things literally painted the town red. Stupid cosmetics companies...

You should've heard CCP Unifex at PAX. He gave a vague bullet list for the next EVE expansion then when Q&A opened up, he gave one of two responses to EVERYTHING: "Watch this space" "Fanfest"

The ones I saw were from CreoDron and they kept trying to rub red powder on everybody's faces. They were clearly rogue Rouge Drones.

Agreed there are a lot of time where I'd much rather be playing with my squad against drones than against other players. I would love to see something mentioned about this so that I can be even more excited fr the next build.

And that's it. See, I don't understand this, surely pve should be available before something more complex, like Planetary Conquest, yet it seems ccp are dong it the other way around? Surely rogue drones can't be that hard to implement; we've already been testing instant battle for a year, all they need to do is replace the opposing team of players with ai robots, which we've already seen in a trailer so they must exist as assets if not fully programmed entities. But instead, something that's so new and unique as taking and holding entire districts on planets in another game, and all of the complicated, untested and probably unbalanced player run mechanics that that entails is being introduced first. What?

PVE needs to be in sooner rather than later, it's an important part of the basic game. Someday... The Ghost Recon franchise used to have killer open-missions. When Future Solder lost that I gave up on the series. CCP has a real chance to pull something that current companies have failed to do. However they're already pretty busy with getting maps and gear up to speed. The bot programing alone will be harsh as any of us can tell by how the automated turrets have changed thus far. Next throw in actually trying to tie in the meta-bot-behavior with the mission. However I do dream of the day when we have... A mission dissuasion around that holographic table or a briefing by an XO. Deployment into one of the full sized maps. Executing the mission (preferably with crackerjack teamwork) and no clone reserves for the real operators. PVP is okay and advanced PVP with conquest will be awesome. Yet their is still SO MUCH MORE to be had and the people putting out First Person Shooters seem to not realize that.
BootStrapWill R.I.f.t 6	Posted - 2013.03.29 17:48:00 - [19] - Quote I'm sure I'll get ranted at by the hard-core players, but I'd like to see some small PVE take place with a Materials gathering focus. To explain: I'd envision non-combat open-world (inside a district) gameplay where I can pilot a dropship loaded with an MTAC and defense drones, and stake a claim to a rich vein of ore, and it'd be up to me to defend my MTAC while retrieving and processing the ore. If you lose the site, you lose your boost of income, if your corp loses the district, you lose the ore claim by default. Note that corp members could also steal the site from you, as claim jumping is a viable activity in New Eden. To boost survival chances, there could be an option to group into a squad, but there would need to be an option to drop out of squad and into an insta-battle if kitten got boring, or for time constraints. Alternately, your squad could get bored, and go looking for trouble, thereby abandoning the miner to any hostile elements, either PVE or PVP. I understand this strays far from the FPS core, but it could be implemented in a similar fashion, and still include heavy combat interaction if the district is attacked while you're harvesting. This is not Troll bait, this is just my 2 ISK on additional game modes that could still present a method to assist a corp outside of Corp Battles, and PC. As an additional side function, this could boost the player economy, as players with good mining alts could gain a large nest egg, thereby keeping with the spirit that is New Eden. You can be rich and you can be powerful, but there is always the chance that someone can come along and kitten up your day in one move.
