I saw an ad and looked at the site, it looks pretty good. Anyone here play who could rate it for me?

Well... its good if you find a PvP corp, then you have a battleship, then you have high combat skills... otherwise it gets boring after about 3 months of endless asteroid mining and skill training...

I wouldn't go so far as to rate it 0.0 ...I really got into the slave trade aspect but kept getting killed by bloody minmatars... With titan's coming out in Shiva it will be changed a little... plus player deployable bases. However the server is brought down for 1 hour daily... and they only really give you main patches every year or so... (Mini-expansions really... a big patch but not big enough to be called an expansion...)

Horrible. Dont bother.
I remeber when I was I was in beta for it, I thought to my self, "This could of been a cool game but it isn't." So I uninstalled it.

Ok, it's so bad that they started begging people to get into their beta test. I signed up for it once because a friend asked me to. I must have gotten 4 or 5 emails about joining the public beta. My friend who did play it got bored with it after 2 days.
The point is. There are so many better MMO games out there. Eve is not even worth the time to download a free trial (if there is one).

It did suck in beta, but it doesn't anymore. If you want instant gratification with no effort...don't play it.
If you are smart enough to realize yer the guy in the ship, and not the ship, it is a lot more fun.
One of the best parts is you dont need to be online to advance your skills. You can do anything you want, the only limits are the ones you put on yerself.
A major content patch is coming soon, prolly about a month or so, that will add lots of new things to blow up...er build.

Earth and Beyond Online is great but, sadly you only have 3 or so months to play. Its alot like EVE in the sense that you get your own ship.
