Dawntide seems to be alot like Eve online now that I have taken a look at Eve for the first time. Not sure if we have any Eve players here, but, they must be doing something right to have 30,000 players online at one time, all in one server. I think its the huge sandbox universe that makes it a huge hit, I can only hope dawntide does the same, only, it would be a world :P

Also, to the Eve players here, what have you always liked about that game?

I have dabbled with EVE on a trial account but have never really been a fan of more futuristic games. Many of my real life friends have been playing for years, and my brother first introduced me to the genre many years ago when he joined EVE in beta.

From many many discusions over the years I would say the biggest attraction is the endless and unpredictable nature of the game. There is no winner or loser, as huge alliances have grown and been toppled over the years. Each player is a tiny cog in the machine that is the world and that however small the impact is, you are making an impact.

Yes, its pretty much the history of mankind in Eve, There is no winner or loser, as huge alliances have grown and been toppled over the years, as you said.

That is how I see dawntide, but there needs to be a stronger economy I think.

Dawntide in its previous incarnation (aka before they took the beta server down) was more like an attempt to make a modern version of Ultima Online.
