Making five wishes in EVE Online

After playing EVE Online for half a year, The Ancient Gaming Noob has revisited his five wishes for the game. Reading through the list reveals it to be pretty reasonable and quite thoughtful -- focusing on functionality over pipe dreams. The last item on the list asks for a simulation mode, which is less about functionality and more about making the learning curve in EVE Online less harsh for newer players. We're inclined to agree here, because it would be nice to have a no risk/no reward system that would let players experiment with their setup. Something like that certainly could save a lot of people several headaches in the long run.

Another item on the list has to do with Trinity and the graphical enhancements that came with the update. The wish -- or complaint, if you want to look at it that way -- concerns performance on lower-end systems. While the new graphics are certainly lovely to look at, many people just don't have the horsepower to pump them out at a smooth pace. CCP will hopefully tweak the classic mode graphics in the future, because we're sure that the Ancient Gaming Noob isn't the only EVE player with this particular wish.
