I seriously laughed my ass off.
Also, the amount of idiocy and the lack of sense humor exhibited by some people in this thread are overwhelming. |

I have to say that is pretty damn accurate, and to be honest about time too, if he came on here and said that people will tell him to go die, go back to wow blah blah ahh the eve community!
Strangely though I still play this game...why? cos ive invested too much time and money in it thats the ONLY reason it stops me leaving after 6 years! |

No this really doesn't give you room to judge. When you are running a multi million pound company that has been operating a successful mmo for years then you will have room to judge. CCP really do a fantastic job. |

ITT people who take humorous semi-reviews personally, unwittingly strengthening the arguments of the very video they try to ridicule.

Im going to test this MMO which is heavily based upon pvp and community by not taking part in anything involving other players...
Good plan! |

But it's not funny. I wouldn't think it was even if I hated Eve. He comes off as someone who thinks he is funny and loves the sound of his own voice, when really he is not. It's just annoying. |

It's funny because there is an element of truth to it. |

Yahtzee is brilliant in his observations most of the time. If you can't see the humour in his 'reviews' you take him much too seriously.
• He bashes almost EVERY game.
• He is a self confessed 'mumorpeger' hater. |

I'm in the army, I also fight aliens with my trusty sidekick Mittens the cat. I can also program a Spectrum, this make me awesome even if the bit about programming a Spectrum is false. Anyone can say anything on the internet.
And yes the guy who does the reviews is funny and like everyone else he is entitled to his opinion. Laugh about it and move on, YAY!

Apparently you have problems reading as well
What part of "My server question was rhetorical..." didnt you understand?
Buzz words? What buzz words? Is your vocabulary that limited?
Hey man... IMO you shouldn't be too concerned about the Medium Shader setting as CCP stated in the patch notes that it was too much investment in time to maintain. They removed it so that they could focus on more pressing issues such as server lag and client side improvements. Since you are a programmer, you understand that when including pixel rendering for multiple settings, it requires more time and effort to maintain. Considering we pay a monthly fee and get free expansions for a game that is as massive as EVE is, I'd rather them cut corners to make the game larger, more epic and focus on things which are game breaking than making it more beautiful to the eye. Now considering your intelligence and how much you've been attempting to back your know-how with gaming programming, I would like to remind you, respectfully, that you can force settings in your graphics card control panel such as Anti Aliasing and shading to suit how you want the game rendered. Your posts to request for a setting to be put back into the game just pushes more work on to developers who are trying to improve this game's playability instead of just make it pretty. For instance, I've forced 16xQ making EVE look less jagged. Possibly, down the road, they can bring it back. But for now, with all the lag issues this game is experiencing, I'm happy they've put it on the back burner. ...just sayn' |

Indeed, Yahtzee's reviews are there to make you laugh and not to suggest if the game if worth a damn or not. At least most of the time that's the case. It is amusing to see all the people who take him too seriously foam at the mouth when he bashes their favorite game. Hell, with such logical flaws as a Dominix and Bestover fighting and the hauler wins,who's to say it's not all a massive troll? A bit off topic,but doesn't forcing graphic settings pose a risk of frying your card?I am no expert on the subject, but would like to hear from people who've been forcing various settings on a game which does not officially support them(like AA in EVE). |

Edited by: Digital Solaris on 29/01/2010 12:11:13Sadly Yatzhee is not as funny as he used to be. Likely because the games he bashes now begs for it, but how I cried from laughing when he reviewed EVE. Originally by: Nooma K'Larr

Amusing that you drop the "have a degree and a past in the military as a programmer"-line. Narcissistic much? What kind of complex piece of software (that didn't have bugs in its code) did you write? Was it "Hello World!"? |

My degree comment was in reply to: "You obviously haven't had much experience in either programming or playing MMOs." Narcissistic? No just stating a fact. Another fact is that programmers are a dime a dozen so there is nothing special about me. But having been there, I don't understand how CCP can release broken patches time and time again. There is something very wrong with that (from a programming teams point of view). Now, I've heard the "size" argument...yes, yes a billion lines of code to maintain. But that is a pathetic argument when it comes to code maintenance. That's like a surgeon saying, "I failed because there was just so much blood." Get my point? BTW, learn to read. I was an electronics tech in the military and a programmer in civilian life. Don't hold my accomplishments against me, they weren't handed to me. I worked hard for them. |

that's because the knee-jerk reaction to any criticism here is: "WOW is that way --->" ...as if it's a good replacment for eve. |
