Another example of me having to check the bloody date of a post as I saw this popping up in steam. People are already calling it out but they already had a project they attempted called Dust 514 and it was an absolute flop, now it seems to try and inject some life into EVE they've decided to go with an extraction shooter.
It's a shame really, because I could totally have gone for an FPS set in the EVE universe, especially if the FPS gameplay made a difference to the overall game in a significant way. It would be really cool if maybe it was some kind of grand strategy style setup and you had the ships providing logistics etc. for the ground troops or something like that but no. Despite it being totally doable in the modern era devs are just being absolute meh with every release.
Initially saw the trailer during one of those countless fests YouTube keeps recommending.
I originally thought it looked okay, but then remembered Dust 514 and how that failed. The general concept could have been cool, and like you said, definitely would have been neat if the FPS missions made a difference to the larger game world, but basically it's just more instanced FPS combat that looks extremely samey and uninspired. Plus, nothing really ties into the larger, emergent EVE experience, so the entire hook that they could have used to lure people in makes it all pointless.
