Perpetuum Welcoming Bittervets from Eve

[FatFreddy]

Let me try to rephrase.

I think it's great so many Eve bittervets are trying out this new game...but how many of the hundreds of players that signed up for a free trial do you think will actually stick around and be here in 2 months time? I'm not knocking perpetuum, or being bitter about Eve, I'm just pointing out that this spike in users may be followed by a dip.

I'm personally part of the spike in dips that may be useless followers.

[Mi Lai]

Not sure whether I will sub after trial, but I like the company so far. Sure there is trouble logging in and stuff, but they at least seem pretty open about whats going on and such. Also, got a PM from a dev to ask me how I like the game and such. Never really seen so much involvement from Devs (though I heard early EVE was like that).

FHC changes games/mmos every two months anyway

I, for one, welcome our new FOTM Overlord.

I'll go ahead and set up a dedicated forum/wiki/ts for it and we'll be bored of it in a week...

brb...

Actually enjoying the game and thinking of giving them a years sub right off the bat crew checking in... The clincher will be if it runs on my eeepc.. (If not I'll probably still put a few months in to it as its a bit of fun)

[Bacchanalian]

Already subbed crew checking in.

what model eeepc? it won't run on my 1005HAB

[Reed Tiburon]

I wonder if they have a version of FHC where they all bitch about old walking animations?

Perhaps failheap can handle the bittervet population of two different games..

Probably older than that.. What was the error? (I have a lot more ram than stock..)

No error message. Just would start up and black screen. HDD would chug like a champ for a good 20 minutes then nothing. 2GB of RAM in my 1005 don't think that was the issue.

[EchoEpsilon23]

I'm hoping it'll run on my integrated Graphics card, (yes I bought a shitty laptop for 200 dollars laugh at me all you want fuckers).

[Rosur]

Already subbed crew checking in.

needing money to do that otherwise i would be, though might wait till most of the server problems are sorted.

[Kalnov]

Wishing SHattered Crystal had cards...

Waiting on paypal to transfer funds.

[Tyrus Tenebros]

Credit cards work on perp site v0v


waiting on lag to go away. It's JUST LIKE eve!

[Kalnov]

My cc doesn't work overseas and I see no reason to change that due to paypal.

Just takes a while...

[01:59:17] <LethalRose> you have to spread out too there are anti blob mechanics
[01:59:34] <Anilusion> when you die you explode and do damage to stuff around you
[01:59:43] <LethalRose> you gain a debuff that increases locking time
[01:59:52] <Wite Melkins> if you abort a mission, do u get a standing hit?
[01:59:53] <Morrigi> oh look, eve channel
[01:59:54] <Dark Omega> the more people that are close together the more interference you get which makes it alot longer to lock
[02:00:02] <Morrigi> hi guys
[02:00:07] <Drahkar> Also players cause itnerference, which gives an increasing penalty beyond certain levels of interference


gasp

HOLY SHIT. this is fucking awesome.

i've been browsing a lot of perpetuum pvp videos, and it looks pretty neat. most of the videos i watched seemed to be the equivalent of our faction war, because there usually was what appeared to be shit "fleet" discipline. would be cool to be pro and keep your spacing, based on the above described game mechanic, and nano fuckers.

game really needs better avatars though, fuck.

Truth. I saw they were hiring for that actually, so if you know anyone that's good at modelling faces...

[Tailn]

Have allways found it amusing that the player portraits are so bad and yet the companys name is 'Avatar Creations'

[Aypse]

My guy looks like he has an enormous tumor growing out of his chin. Then again, all I could be bothered doing with the avatar creator was clicking the random button until a non-retarded looking one came up.

All I can say is good.. I gave up trying to make my face look like anything in the end and just went with one that didn't look retarded (which was surprisingly hard to do).

Even CCPs old one was better than this..
