EVE Online: Trinity expansion launching December 5th
First CCP teased capsuleers stating the new EVE: Online Trinity expansion was coming "some time" this winter. Our anticipation soared to a new high after it was divulged in the EVE's quarterly economic newsletter Trinity would launch November 27th. That date conflicted with the first week of December announcement given at the EVE Fan Fest held in gloriously frozen-to-the-bone Reykjavik , Iceland . Finally fixing their implants, CCP has definitely marked December 5th as the official date for Trinity to launch.
The date is official -- this is it, and hot damn I'm looking forward to it. You, I, with EVE, in a shiny new Trinity. Let's hug it out in the station as we drool over the shine or you can just blow up my Dominix. The most tremendous thing coming in Trinity is the graphics overhaul. Diggity, diggity. There is not one word in the thesaurus that can describe how much I'm looking forward to EVE's new graphics update. Over 50 man years invested into this graphical insanity, that's how much time the art team poured into the project -- the EVE art team didn't really start remodeling EVE's graphics back in the late 50's. It was enough craziness to make van Gogh roll over in his grave and chop his other ear off! Every station, ship, stargate redone!
Gameplay wise, a plethora of space crap. Yes, you heard me right, good space crap. New Tech II ships for various classes; over 200 brand-spanking new agent missions that tap into various areas in the game so even the miners won't feel left out; new toys for the intrepid explorers; new rookie player experience; tons more features and game play enhancements that run the gamut. You can check out more details, including developer videos discussing the expansion over at CCP's official EVE: Online Trinity website. [via, Business Wire]
