Which out of a paid game is absolutely disgusting me. But since I don't really plan on doing a lot of PvE, it doesn't bother me ALL that much(i'm still dissapointed with it). The original release is 60$, and then expensions every few months(if they keep the same model they did with the original GW). I do not see a need for them to implement a cash shop whatsoever, they should have well sufficient fundings to release their expensions, keep the servers up without the additional income that a cash shop would provide them. This is pure greed, altough I can't blame them, a company has to make profit any way they can, right?

With the instant max level PvP though, I do not see this being a terribly big issue for me. However until it gets out, I need something I can play in the meanwhile, and when my buddies are not on to PvP.

its going to be very hard these days to find a non-micro transition game.
Game dev's are (for the most part) either changing, or building ground up micro-transition games. As opposed to the normal subscription plan's.

Imo you must have had a rough start into eve online. That by far trumps any game I'v played, and iv hit 3/4 of your list.
I would suggest giving it another shot, the pvp is amazing and the economy is by far the most interesting. The economy drives the game pretty much, all player driven without aid from the devs.

If it turns out your really not interested in eve, shoot me a message. I might be interested in your assets/chars/accounts.


/edit other suggestions

World Of tanks
World of Warplanes (in closed beta right now)
World of Battleships (not yet released in any alpha/beta form)

Eventually the goal of the dev's is to have a merge across all 3 games. And get people into one huge battle consisting of 1 part from each genre.

Just pre-ordered GW2. Need something to sink my teeth into until the 25th. The thing about EVE is maybe I started on the wrong foot. I started playing this game (and still am skilling today) for the sole purpose of PvP'ing with my friends. I didn't touch the missions past the tutorial, I didn't do much industrial, mining, trading etc. Maybe I should actually go back on and try everything the game has to offer, but that also means I have to spend my skilling time on other skills not related to PvP and that will hinder my progress so much.

Still looking!
