Played this game for a while a couple of years ago, I loved it, but theres only ever a handful of players online (not enough to call the game an MMO, usually less people on than you get on an average FPS game server).

They need to start advertising soon or the game will look to dated to actually attract people.  With competition like Infinity on the way, VO could be overshadowed before anyone even knows about it.

yea i agree nasher the game needs more people and more advertising for it, right now it has barely any.

and to think, today on EVE there was over 30,000 online at the same time.

I tried Vendetta and it's solid gameplay, but a bit too cartoony for my taste. It did run nice and smooth for me though.

EVE beats it hands down. If only the smooth fps gameplay of vendetta was mixed with the complexity of EVE.

yea but EVE and VO are totally different games. How many people in eve do you talk to out of that 30,000 though? Some people say how many people there are in EVE and its funny because a lot of the time you directly interact with more people in VO than some do in eve.

Well playing both I can say interacting with people in EVE is up to you.

If your just a cearbear grinding missions solo to make cash then yea you don't have to interact.

I was in a large alliance where interaction was a huge part of your game day. Large fleets. Mining op's. Corps and alliances rely on interaction to function.

It just depends on what you want to do. No way can you compair the community interaction for EVE's community is very large.

Maybe I am missing something but how does more people equal more fun? MMO does not mean alot of people it indicates a persistent world that more than one person can enter, just because there are only 20 to 30 does not make it any less an MMO than a game that has 20,000 to 30,000. I feel that WoW has set an artificially high standard for game population by which many people judge the worth of a game. Just because EVE has more people doesn't mean it is the better game. Maybe it is but making that statement based on population is a very limited assesment.

very true two

I dont see how anyone can like this game over EvE. Seriously its not even a question of taste, They both AIM for the same thing only EvE delivers over 10000 times more than this game ever possibly could even if it had more than 4 years extra development time.

Im sorry but more players does equal more fun you know why?

EvE is a living world, with thousands of people trading and crafitng items and changing the economy ever second of the day. Its Dynamic.

Im serious if all the people on this forum that enjoy Earth and Beyond and Vendetta, they should easily enjoy EvE.

In fact if you get the 14 day free trial i will group with you and show you a good time, just so you can see how good EvE really is.

Alot of people get thrown off EvE cause it is tough to get into at first, but once your in trust me YOUR IN!

I havent been in love with a MMO like EVE since SWG PRE-NGE.

So please message me here on MMORPG.com or in game, and ill gladly help you guys see the real game, cause trust me once you get into a corporation the game flys by.

Actually MMO means MASSIVE Multiplayer online.. kinda yeah means more people.. otherwise it would be a MORPG (multiplayer online RPG).  still i have not tried this game and i have been wondering if it is still around to experiment with.  played EVE... got tired of waiting a full year real time to be able to do anything other than the whole carebear solo missions.

I played Eve for a long time and Earth and Beyond.  Neither one let you aim and shoot using your aim skill rather than how long you ground out the level your at to determine how accurate the weapons are.  Nice to have a game that allows you to actually fly a vehicle in dogfights letting the player actually feel in control.  I havnt played Vendetta since beta and am looking for a FPS style mmo space game.  Playing TR now but thats not true fps.
