EVE: Accurate mass media coverage of a sandbox, hell freezing over, etc

Posted on July 12, 2012 by SynCaine

Dear Eurogamer: This is how you cover a sandbox. You have to actually have someone play it, and then play it with at least the attempt to understand it.

Good job by Tyler on the article, and credit to PCGamer for publishing it.

    Ah, he is in the same staging station that I am. There is a nice eternal gate camp between that system and PR-.

    Not a bad start for what sounds like a series. He’ll have to get terminology together, as I am pretty sure he was going on a “hot drop” not a “hot jump.” But I am sure he’ll be saying things like “On the Pee-Are-Tack gate” like a pro soon.

      That whole “tack” thing threw me for the BIGGEST loop when I first started my (short) stint in null.

        whats worse is when you start using it outside of the context of EVE (like at work) forgetting its not obvious anymore…
