EVE Online has become such a different experience to other MMORPGs, it provides completely different elements that no other game can. With this new Citadel expansion, those elements are about to expand even further.
The biggest selling point of this new expansion is the ability to construct large structures designed to help you as you battle your way through space. The old Starbases are now irrelevant, now it’s all about Citadels. Citadels work as the headquarters for both individuals and corporations. They can be used as a point of offensive operations or simply used as a trade-hub. Whether you are a rich or poor EVE Online player, this update will impact you in a large way.
Citadels can be placed anywhere in EVE Online’s universe, allowing players to truly own their own corner of the universe. CCP Games (the developers of EVE Online) have created a trailer that depicts a dramatic picture of the EVE Online world with this new Citadel update. Click here to watch it.
The large structures aren’t the only thing added to EVE Online. CCP Games have a long list of changes to the game, including: new superweapons, anti-subcapital guns and over one hundred new modules.
If you haven’t been keeping up with EVE Online recently, you may not have realised that the players in game are currently going through the largest war to take place in years, involving tens of thousands of players. CCP Games have thrown in this expansion at the perfect time. While players get familiar with this update, we will see how warfare changes over time.
CCP Games claim there has never been a better time to start playing EVE Online. With thousands of old veterans returning to the fold to fight in the war, and with the new-player-friendly corporations available that are recruiting people directly to the frontlines, you can experience the game at its best right now.
