Is this the completed Eve box for the general market, seems a little underwhelming...still extra standing points and a VIP Pass should compensate maybe.

Hmmm. Extra standings to lessen the agent grind or quickly get into faction war I can see as a perk to buy the box but what exactly does 2x rewards mean? Double bounties and mission reward gains for a while? Also what is a VIP pass?

Amarr tactic = Fight until your last breath, and in doing so you serve God! Surprised
Minmatar tactic = Build many cheap ships and engage in battle until you win! Laughing
Caldari tactic = Employ high-tech warships and advanced tactics to win all battles! Cool
Gallente tactic = Now where is that white flag again? Confused

least the war actually made you race work together ....for once so it would seem the victory is already on your side, at least until it over where you lot can argue about the scraps left and start the blame trail Very Happy

The box was made as a mock-up to show their intentions. No way jose they're ever going to add bonuses like extra standing, double rewards and a 'VIP pass' (whatever it may be). I can just imagine the ****storm on the forums.

That's a horrible box design.

It looks flat, boring and ... boring?

Man the FreeSpace box.. that had something going for it. And it was cool too.. all the Descent series games (and FreeSpace included) had the little pop-out effects. Like the Diamond Claw on the D2 box, the Lucifer on the FS1 box and the ships and lasers on the FS2 box.

:(

EVE is way more deserving than a flat "LOOK AT THESE AWARDS THAT ARE OVER 5 YEARS OLD AND LOTS OF TEXT EVERYWHERE".

Bring some action to the box or use the guy's box that we all loved in that one thread a long time ago.

A moment of silence for the Freespace series...(and the space-sim genreSad) may it one day rise again.

Nice box design. Also we all know the gallente are the "mistakes" when the scientist were creating the perfect race known as the Caldari.

Box design sucks.

Seriously, I would have thought that CCP would know how small a part of eve the spaceflight bit is!

The points at the bottom are clearly the product of some office juniors task at 4:55pm on a friday afternoon "Come up with 6 bullet points for box cover". No mention of the most realistic economy in any game, most comprehensive grouping systems (fleet + corp), etc etc.

And tbh, the artwork sucks. A few dreads and a Mothership in a Star Trek pose, with a carrier going pop, pathetic, doesn't do this game justice. Besides, when are the newbs buying it ever gonna see that sight? First 6 months? maybe, but they won't be at the helm.

Redesign methinks. Crying or Very sad

This was my initial thought on seeing it too.....however, once I saw the similarly 'flat' looking full page ad for Eve in Edge magazine this month a moment of doubt crossed my mind :)
However, the mock-up idea seems strengthened by the lack of box art at Atari's site so thanks (to the guy who provided the link and the guy who linkified it too :) )

Just to debunk this..

What you see there is not the actual box or even close to the final. This was a very early mockup that was done in a few short days. The extras shown on there are not accurate either.

There will be more info forthcoming soon™.

The Amarr painted a religious symbol on it which the Caldari then sold to Minmatar as an "Advanced Combat Rig" Very Happy

I really hope it didn't take you *that* long. Shocked
Since you got all the stock available in house etc.

Only thing what might have taken an hour or 3 would be getting the screenshot from an internal server.
