With a new gameplay trailer, the creators of EVE Online aim to ease the entry for beginners. But even for veterans, the new trailer could present interesting information.
What can be seen? The new trailer for EVE Online tells you the story of EVE. You will learn what EVE Online is all about and what exactly you play there:
- You play a cloned super pilot 21,000 years in the future in “New Eden”
- Four empires dominate the “safe” world
- Player alliances set the rules in more hostile environments
- Unexplored areas hold more secrets
This is how EVE Online plays
This is how the ships work: The trailer also introduces you to the various ships of EVE, which are one of the main features of the game. The ships range from small companions to medium-sized frigates to gigantic warships and freighters.
While the ships have specific roles, advantages, and disadvantages, they are fully customizable, and you can equip and modify them as you wish.
This is how the game principle works: What you do or want to do in EVE is entirely your decision. The skill system presented in the trailer gives you the freedom to decide how you want to develop.
Through certain training sessions, you can improve your skills, even when you are offline. With a specialization, the corresponding skills are learned faster, allowing you to catch up to other players and friends more quickly.
If you do not like what you have chosen or want to try something new, you can choose your role again at any time.
These paths you can take: The trailer presents three paths as examples that you can pursue:
- Fighter: Battles in EVE Online can be fought against AI as well as other players. Battles can take place as small skirmishes, larger clashes, or even as massive space battles with thousands of players.
- Explorer: Explore the world and discover new areas where riches, secrets, or dangers may be hidden.
- Trader: Focus on trading with other players and build your own empire to achieve wealth and prosperity. You have access to the vast market that EVE Online offers.
The most important thing is the players
EVE Online is almost entirely guided by the decisions of the players. The community is the most important component of the game. Players can form corporations, forge alliances, and control entire regions.
Most equipment and items are created by players. A continuous flow of new products is therefore essential to keep supplying players.
