EVE: Incursion
On December 1st, CCP (the creators of EVE) released a new expansion, Incursion. The expansion is for EVE online. EVE online is a massively multiplayer online game set 30,000 years in the future. Players take on the role of capsuleers (clones) to fulfill their destiny in the Universe. The capsuleers are immortal, as long as their cloning vats stay online. This expansion brings many new things to the EVE online universe, one of those being the new character creation tool. Players will know have to ability to make a full bodied character. The Incursion is based off of the attacks of Sanshas Nation. Sanshas Nation was originally a band of arms manufacturers, but as they were discovered, the four empires (Amarr, Gallente, Caldari, and Minmatar) took action against them. Ever since then, the remaining Sanshas Nation fleet has lived in worm holes. Know they seek retribution. The fleets have attacked many planets since May and have taken over 4,000,000 slaves/hostages. The article was written by the CCP news team.
The article gives details about Sanshas Nation incursions in real-space. It also states how many people were taken from the planets they have raided. The article gives information about the brand new character creation, and the removal of the learning skills (cumbersome skills that lower skill training time as a whole). I am excited to see what the game will be like with the new character creation, and the removal of learning skills, I am looking forward to more attacks from Sanshas Nation. On December 3rd, CCP did a test on the removal of learning skills. The test was a success. More major updates will be available on December 13-15th.
I am hoping that this expansion will be a great success. I also hope that it will bring more players to EVE online. The EVE game world itself is only one server. The estimated maximum amount of people allowed at one time online is 70,000. 300,000 people have registered accounts. CCP is doing their best to expand the number of players that can be online at one time. I personally have never seen the population rise above 51,000. I agree that CCP should re-create the character creation tool. The old one has very outdated graphics. In this expansion the character creation character actually look like real-life people!
EVE: Incursion has launched, but the major updates have not. They are scheduled to release December 13-15th. The game will feature many new experiences, tools, and advancements to the already large game.
