Yesterday Johnathan Lander, senior producer of EVE Online, posted on their dev blog about the upcoming expansion, "Inferno." Most of the post is a mix of back slapping and reminding players of the changes the game has been through since the last expansion launched.
Lander is clearly a bit of a tease since he barely gives up any real information about Inferno. There's going to be work done on the avatar technology, factional warfare, Concord sanctioned warfare and a bunch of fixes. There will also be more information revealed about how DUST 514 and EVE will be linked. That's it, I just saved you from reading a long blog post about very little. It's here if you still feel the need to read it.

But spreadsheets are awesome! Seriously though, I want to see a Dtoid Merc group for Dust. I'm completely down for that. How about you Trist?
That's what windowed mode is for! That said I quit last year and haven't felt the urge to return yet.
It just requires that you pay attention to details and be able to think past simple button-mashing techniques that current MMO's like WoW have become. Besides, after you're in the game for afew months; all the attributes of the ships start to make alot of sense, and you can compare ships more readily as you play. I think thats why I like it so much, you're always learning a new trick or a new ship setup, or a new fleet composition to take on other people.
If you're a tactician, you'll love EVE. If you're the kind of person who loved loading out mech's in mechwarrior, you'll love what EVE offers you for ship custom load-outs.
The learning curve of EVE is so big, because the potential for great things, aswell as extremely stupid things, is so high. Makes it win-win to me.
Now if only they'd release more info about the next expansion...
