Today Carnyx was deployed as the first half of EVE Online’s “Summer of Sov.” In June and July, EVE’s stars will alight with glorious spaceship explosions thanks to dramatic improvements in the way player alliances capture, hold, and defend space in EVE. Next month’s Aegis release will complete the overhaul of EVE’s Sovereignty design, the system with which alliances, ranging in size from hundreds to tens of thousands of players, battle over the riches of the vast, lawless nullsec regions surrounding the core of New Eden’s Empire space.

On Saturday, 25 April, a massive earthquake of 7.8 magnitude struck Nepal and the surrounding region, swiftly followed by an initial aftershock measuring 6.6 and a second measured at 6.7 the next day. These earthquakes have caused unprecedented destruction across the area, leveling homes, businesses and reducing to rubble heritage that has stood for thousands of years. With the United Nations confirming that the death toll has surpassed 6,000 people, foreign aid has begun to pour in from across the globe.

Mosaic brings many changes to EVE’s massive sci-fi universe

Tiamat’s additions to the EVE universe focus on the evolving universe storyline, a new tactical destroyer, improvements to our new physically based rendering graphic system, and changes in corporation tools, projectile weapons and more.

It’s only been a little over a month since Rhea was released and we’ve already deployed a batch of additions to EVE Online with Proteus as a part of our promise to improve and grow our legendary science fiction MMO and deliver frequent updates to all its infamous players. This blistering release cadence shows little concern for even holiday distractions it seems, as Proteus was successfully deployed today.

Following the tremendous reception from players and critics alike to its recent “This is EVE (2014)” game trailer, which featured actual EVE player audio recordings with stunning space visuals, CCP Games has today delivered 2014’s largest update to the massive, sci-fi universe of EVE Online. The Rhea release adds dozens of major features, new ships and innovative areas of space to the EVE universe. It continues the long tradition of co-creating the game with player feedback within a very quick 5-6 week development cycle that ensures the next free update to EVE is just around the corner.

It turns out “What is EVE Online?” is a difficult question to answer. Capturing the raw essence of a game as open-ended and meaningful as EVE Online, the varied experiences and ambitions of its players, and what it “feels like” to play is no easy task. This past September we issued a game-wide call to collect the EVE Online player community’s most memorable moments from in-game voice communication. Voice communication is an integral part of the fabric of the game and its history, from fleets to diplomacy to just hanging out.

CCP Games, a leading independent developer of massively multiplayer games, today has rocked the notorious player-controlled metagame of EVE Online with changes to force projection while delivering dozens of other features and improvements to the game in the “Phoebe” release. Bringing some of the boldest developments in more than 11 years to EVE’s massive sci-fi universe, Phoebe echoes the developer’s new mantra of challenging long-held assumptions while staying true to EVE’s often-praised sandbox game design.

The boldest changes to EVE in years are coming in its November 4th release, Phoebe. Phoebe will usher in a new era for “nullsec” (player owned areas) as well as bring in new opportunities for exploration and evolutions to major systems like the skill queue, Invention, market trading, notifications, the sensor overlay and more. The Phoebe feature page is now live at http://community.eveonline.com/releases/phoebe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ib4JucJYKo

This past weekend, a sold out EVE Vegas 2014 player gathering saw over 500 EVE players from as far away as Australia descend upon Las Vegas’ Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino for 2+ days of presentations, round tables, parties, and a developer lead pub crawl on the Vegas strip. The livestreamed event included expert player presentations and hands on skirmishes of both EVE Online and EVE: Valkyrie, a virtual reality dogfighting game set to launch with Oculus Rift on PC and Sony’s Morpheus headset on PlayStation 4. The massive celebration is second only to EVE Fanfest in size and follows a trend where EVE player gatherings have continued to grow year upon year in popularity all around the world, leading to more direct developer support and unforgettable experiences for those who love to fly spaceships. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yejOnTg19Yo
