Blizzard to offer digital download

Submitted by Abalieno on January 18, 2007 - 17:56.

It was discussed these days that Blizzard didn't offer a digital download of their expansion (I commented this on Brandon's blog).

Well, they are going to. Or at least I read it and I'm sure. It's just that these days I read things and then forget where. So go find the link yourself.

Now. If only they offered it in time for the release I could have spared the ~$60 for taxes+shipment of my US copy.

Yes. $60 for importing, $40 for the actual game.

Order EON 06 it have verry cool things about walking on stations, player interaction

"...we are talking about avatars that respond dynamically to the social environment.A noisy outburst or high-ranking officer will cause heads to turn..."

"Offices will be the first thing that we will develop for in-station activities"

"Your corp will be able to rent an office of varying quality and have it decorated and arranged in the fashion you see fit"

Get EON 05 for the development of interacting planets with players

"Current thinking is to have planets divided into trritories, each one potentiallly resource-rich,pirate-infested, or manufacturing centre"

Thous are truly NEWS

Nope. It's not news because they talked about that in a dev blog.

And it's not even interesting because it's all fluff while the important parts are systematically ignored. I don't like much Eve direction lately.

They still don't get the basics and pretend to go for the most useless and superfluous stuff. That's not being ambitious, that's being pretentious. In particular when they missed ALL deadlines and the they don't even see the end of the Kali patch.

I'm almost tempted to say that sometimes their "news" are nothing else that pure VAPORWARE. They are becoming good at throwing sands in the eyes of the players.

And Eve is also getting its blind fanboys.

So, judge and praise and hype the game for what it offers NOW and in the short future. Not what will be patched, maybe, in 2012.
