What is your problem? I haven't played EV in months, and I have gotten a bit bored with it, not having the bandwidth to download good plugins. That doesn't imply that EV is a bad game or that other games are wholly superior, merely that is possible to exhaust EV's possibilities and that trying new things can also be a good thing. Play some Avara, Harry, or Ferazel for a change.

Avara, Harry, and Ferazel suck...

EV is NOT made anew when you play a new plug-in: the strategies remain the same. The primitive AI is too easy to beat. I do think that a game is truly great if you can go without playing it for months or a year and still have fun talking about it. I still think EV is a great game. Ares has a much better engine, though, and once Hera comes out (I hope it's like ResEdit and EV-Edit combined!) it will grow a lot. Right now I don't play any Ambrosia games, or any computer games at all for that matter. I'm into Star Wars CCG, so I spend a lot of time of the Decipher boards.
No plug is totally bug-free, and I've operated on every one I've played. My copy of the EV Data itself is so hacked up that I've considered wiping my entire EV folder and re-installing EV from the CD, then getting Pale, Bounty, and a couple other select plug-ins to play. I may continue, once in a while, but I think you can "beat" a plug in. Especially Pale. There are many mission strings, but there are no big choices. Otherwise, it's a great plug-in. Game Expander is also fun, but it doesn't have enough missions. There are no perfect plug-ins.
By the way, the last really good plug I played through was Beyond The Crescent. It has some of the best missions I've ever played. I don't really want to make my own plug-ins, because the missions have no surprise, and it never works anyway. Since I've been gone, have there been any really good plug ins (with good missions) since about November or December?

Interesting how major will the upgrade be? Some AI changes and engine enhancements? Will there be new graphics instead of all those original EV ones? I hope there are Arada pictures built in, even though you can't buy most variants. Just for developers. After all, EV has the non-purchasable ship graphics built in. I've never played EVO very much, since it's basically just a plug-in, not a major enhancement.
It would be VERY cool if they could combine EV and Ares, or make an Ares plug-in (once Hera comes out) to make it like an EV "Tour Of Duty" for the Rebels, Confeds, Pirates, Artemis, and UGE. An EVO one, too.

1.0.2 is mainly an engine update; press the 'Upcoming' button at the top of the board and click on EV Override 1.0.2 to find out more. There are a few small scenario changes, a coupla bug fixes, no new graphics. However, EVO 3D Designs was released a month or so ago, with all the EVO Infini-D models in one package; if you have Infini-D or a compatible 3D program, you can render your own views and scenes of Override ships.

I agree about EV and EVO for Ares; commanding your own Confed/Rebel fleet in a well-established universe would be fascinating, though I'm a terrible Ares player.

Ev-edit and Resedit combined? God I hope not!

Combining complexity and the automatic feature of destroying anything you open with it couldn't be good.

I know what you mean though. I hope so too...

Well Id like to say that I belive EV, is not a dead game.
Ive just recently started playing again. You know the old saying about how seperation makes the heart grow fonder. Seems to me that since I hadnt played EV in a long, long time, it still retains its value, as with any game its hard to stay in it forever. Im thinking about doing a plugin of my own, the development process for games interests me, unfortunately I dont have bryce anymore, and that means I cant do my own planet graphics, which kinda sucks, ahh well, I say its still fun.
