Earth and Beyond.....
« on: February 22, 2003, 11:34:50 PM »
This is a star based Everquest. Great looking graphics and compelling gameplay has me hooked. I just reached lvl 15 and its really starting to get interesting.

We will see how it fares when EVE online comes out. I might be torn. Eve looks marvelous(I saw it at E3 and was given the lowdown by the developers).

But for the time being E&B is cool. With all the new space based RPGS coming out star warriors will have a lot to look foward to. Did anyone say Freelancer?

Haven\'t tried E&B... will look into it. But I\'m looking forward to EVE Online. I know nO-One is, too, since the developers are from Iceland. :D
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAPETIME!

I beta tested E&B it was fun till I reached lvl 70 then it became boring. I have read some posts on the full retail and it\'s the same thing there. Reach lvl 50-70 it becoms boring.

Anyway the one I had most fun with was JE and JW till I tried the bonus mission then It was very boring, waiting for hours to get that special item from one ship that only respawn every hour.

But I have to admit that I miss that game a little, especially now after reading the research thread on E&B website.

I will be getting EVE when it comes out. It looks more realistic than E&B. The judge is still out.

Usually any game using a dedicated server will charge a monthly fee. Planetside, SWG, and a few others likewise.

Back to E&B I ran into a lvl 100 player last night and was invited to join his guild. At the time I was a lowly lvl 20. The guild upgraded my reactor and gave me supercharged weapons. Woohoo!

After a cruise in formation(awesome) around the galaxy I went from a lvl 20 to lvl 30 in one hour. We went places where if I was left alone my survival would have been in doubt(I would have been destroyed). Venus(a female player was able to open up wormholes) helped us move around quickly. She had an incredible vessel a Progen Explorer.


 My impression of the game has now climbed greatly. I think I found my everquest.


I am hooked.

Just reached lvl 60 and the game is getting better and better. If you have not tried this one you dont know what your are missing. BTW you can play free for 35 days by downloading the entire game demo first and upgrade for 14 dollars. Not bad.


This game truly rocks.:D
