Leave a Review EVE Echoes
Great game, needs balancing.
Omega and alpha clones are way too differing in ability. I know you can pay to get there, and you can also go the grinding route, but the payoff is nowhere near fully compensating. To get past the first level research? Omega clone. To sell high level ore? Omega clone. To get high tier battleships that far out perform the regular ones? OMEGA CLONE… I think I’ve made my point. Either make omega clone easier to obtain, or decrease the amount things you need it for, because currently, you need it for everything past a basic research level, which seriously stunts growth that is perfectly obtainable, except that for some reason you need to be an omega clone… even though what you want to research only costs a few million to unlock (millions are not a big number in this game). If nothing else, at least take off omega clone restrictions for research PLEASE, it’s pointless to keep someone from something they could obtain if not for a paywall. This also is discouraging to some people because it means they either have to grind their soul away, or pay a lot of money, both of which are just a pain in the a55.Show lessStormtroopers78
Parallel to the Eve Online Experience
I went in with few expectations, since EO has a reputation for requiring a subscription for the high-dollar in game items and I expected even worse from the mobile adaptation. While the game indeed offers certain items for a premium subscription, virtually everything can be earned by grinding for ISK, which was a nice surprise. For the many players complaining of the complexity of the game and seemingly carefree nature of the developers, this is sort of what they’re known for. Eve is notorious for being mind-bendingly complex; the developers give the players a template of the universe and let them shape it from there. Overall, I’m only a few days into the game, but the fluid adaptation to mobile and similarity to the PC version make this a solid recommendation.Show lessSentient Coffee Mug
Was promising
Basically, the game has excellent graphics and gameplay and a great recreation of eve on line’s universe on mobile. But that is the only good things about the game. One of the biggest issue the game has is bots from China. You log in and 90 % or more of the other players are bots. Net ease and ccp will ban 50k but twice that will show up the next day with new accounts. The second biggest problem the game has is its support of greifing squads in the name pvp. They camp gates and just destroy everything coming thru and don’t even give you a chance too defend your self. It very off putting to players and makes them quit especially considering the long grind the game has. The game is basically for those that like too sit by a gate in a large group mindlessly killing everyone. Or for those that like to use bots in games to play for them. Finallly the game has way too many paywalls in it blocking character progression for the game. This kind of overuse of of paywalls and bots allowed in a game is what happens when any respectable developer like ccp teams up with any Chinese game developer. They need too drop netease and take the game back themselves and ban all Chinese up adresses from the game too stop the relentless bots.Show lesshobinm
Unsecure and possibly illegal
This game unlike most every legitimate games will not work if your use a VPN as part of your network security. No notice is given why they require the game to access to whatever dodgy internet address a VPN protects you from. Use if you see no problem in this game doing anything like install crypto miners on your devices and steal whatever personal information they want and sell it , more likely they are opening access for their “partners” to do this themselves, cryptomining, keylogging, data scraping etc.Show lessdrgghuu
Pay to win
I do enjoy this game and the community but I’m pretty much to the point where I’m ready to give up. Successive changes have pushed this game more and more towards a pay to play model and there is not enough new content to justify significant outlay each month just to play the same old content again and again. The devs need to be careful because a game like this relies on a good community and each month more people I enjoy playing with disappear because of these issues.Show less1985645
Pay to win but still fun
This game is pretty much pay to win BUT it’s still fun you can get a good footing in the game in safe areas and by killing pirates it’s still a very good game but with the latest update they upped all the prices well most of them for ships anyway I haven’t seen anything about the weapons or drones but I was so close to getting a omen trainer but then they upped the price and now it’s basically 8,000,000 plex so they doubled the price and that wouldn’t be a problem to me if they would let you sell the loot you get from defeating pirates and selling the stuff you mine but no you need omega clone just to sell a mk1 cannon you looted from pirates but this game is still fun but 1 tip if your grinding don’t think about it just have fun so you won’t rage as much when something stupid happensShow lessThe27Gods
Money grabbing, not for casual players, love it or hate it
You may love it, you may not. There are cheaper ways to play games just as fun if not more so on console or pc of the same genre. I started playing the game pretty soon after launch and loved it for a while, slowly it became more hardcore (some love it and some dont). I spent money on gaining omega only for a bug to leave the game unplayable over new year 2020 for at least two months which i was not compensated for and told to wait and see by support even though this disabled my omega, lost me 60mill in missions and left me two months behind my corp mates in regards to skills. Would rather they put a flat price on the app as you will most likely end up spending more and more money as time goes on especially as expereinced players will ensure new players struggle to effectively purchase plex which is used to pay for the full features of the game when all is said and done. Download it , play, enjoy it but keep track of your spending and stop when it becomes tedious e.g. like paying £9.99 to get back your destroyed ship via insurance :sShow lessViper-thrust
Insurance was a bad move
The insurance has ruined the game. Now everyone is flying around if the biggest most expensive ships and the causal people like me who do want to spendable a lot of money just get wiped off the map. Also the economy is crashing hard. The game caters to people who will spend money on the game. Look I get it, NetEase has to make money, but the game sucks now. PVP is meaningless, the player just get a new blingy ship at 70% discount. When we do get into a fight, they just call their buddies with their blingy ships and wipe us. I’m one foot out the door. I know several of the core players in my Corp are as well. We’ve even logged back into our EO accounts in preparation for switching back.Show lessabc123654378976542678

Game marketing is misleading
Be warned:
1. Terrible customer support.
2. Game is designed to lock you in with daily chores.
3. Game is pay-to-win.
4. You will be fighting players that have huge advantages over you,
...and they will bring friends.
5. And if you are playing on a phone or tablet, then know that you will be competing against desktop players that use emulators (and probably multi-boxing).
Oh, boy. And now my review has a “Developer response” saying how to contact customer support. As if I didn’t know how, including how to provide discord feedback to #bug-reports and #suggestions.
Let me be clear. Going over a month without response to my in-game customer service tickets is NOT ACCEPTABLE, especially in light of my points 2-5.Show lessEager Beager
