Beautiful whale game
ElCrusto
It’s admittedly a beautiful game and I enjoyed discovering the finer details of gameplay. BUT: Even as omega (subscriber for 5 bucks per month) with way more skills to unlock than non paying players you will soon realize that you’re nothing but whale fodder. To make progress at a reasonable rate you have to leave the high security non pvp sectors and mine or do missions in pvp sectors. No way around this. That’s where the whales will eat you. There are ships for literally a billion and more of the ingame currency which you simply stand no chance against after weeks of gameplay. And again, avoiding them by staying in high sec will significantly slow your progress. Clearly developers want to force you into pvp not for fair competition but to entertain their whales with golden credit cards. It’s kind of sad, but once this became obvious I decided to not even pay monthly subscriptions. If my destiny in this game is whale fodder I certainly won’t pay for that honor. Probably I quit it all together. Nevertheless.... as a game it looks and feels awesome. Respect to the game developers, I hope the marketing team will get fired though.
Shocked to see so many bad reviews

I’ve had a ton of fun. It’s hard, dangerous spots, bit of a learning curve, but the game is huge and there’s nothing else like it on mobile. Get into a good Corp you’ll get lots of support and help. You can also play solo and do quiet well, just avoid null sec.
Too many out-of-game transaction in this game
lan199222002
There are too many out-of-game transaction in this game and it is seriouly broke the rule of the game. It is unfair to players who buy game coin offially. I reported many players who did the out-of -game transaction to game team, but they are still there to do yhe samething！this action is seriously affact normal players right. If game team don't want to correct it, apple should contact then. Because we pay dollars tk apple！
Great game, major drawbacks

If you’re willing to pay to play, this is an outstanding game. You will not enjoy this game and you will not have a single ounce of fun if you don’t pay to play. The level of detail and immersion is second to none. This game allows you to create an experience for yourself that is hyperrealistic and completely immerses you in the idea of intergalactic exploration. However, your success in this game is directly correlated with a level of risk that you are willing to take - in trying to make enough money to make the game playable, on several occasions I lost over half the in-game currency I had farmed, ruining weeks worth of work because a ship was destroyed by a group of players. It takes days, weeks even to truly earn enough IGC to make meaningful purchases that make the game fun. But when time and time again you are set back to 0... it’s not fun. The game is truly ruined by the requirement that to make it playable, you have to pay for it, and that literal weeks worth of work will be destroyed as you’re simply trying to play the game.
Best Game Ever Except

This game has everything you would want. For a MMO it has unlimited potential from its main game offering. But I gave it 3 stars many people in the past week have started quitting as it introduced a technology called bubbles to prevent casual players from playing and many have been leaving frustrated over the patch.
Ship Constantly Destroyed

I specifically put avoided a system with PvP. Go to bed wake up and was destroyed in the system I had been avoiding. This is the 4th time I’ve woken up to a destroyed ship I’m done.
Huge time commitment and unfun mechanism for a mobile game

I feel like the devs don’t know what most mobile users want in a game. What’s the point of an Eve online clone that’s exactly like it? Many people liked the initial version where you weren’t required to stare at your phone for 20 minutes while just traveling to different site doing nothing. Even if you are doing that, you can get gate camped and die instantly before the game even loads. How is this fun? Oh I should’ve created a second account to scout for me? This is a mobile game and it’s one of the mechanism in Eve Online that caused severe burnout. If people wanted that kind of hard core mechanism, go play Eve online. Where is an alternative that we were promised with a mobile version? The alpha accounts are also so severely gimped when it comes to trade that it’s unplayable and many corps don’t even accept them. The game can still be fun and I enjoy it but I will definitely burn out soon. If the game keeps favoring the vocal minority of hardcore players, it will tank. There is a perfectly good alternative of Eve online for those players so I don’t know why the devs always cave to them.
