I can assure you it's still a casino. You may be winning, you may be losing - but it is still a casino.

And that's absolutely fine - as long as you are aware of it.

I do appreciate your assurance and your advise.I prefer to always win therefore I keep playing Entropia Universe even though I never step inside a casino in my life.
Take care.

Everything seems weighted on initial investment and you wont get a rags to riches loot anymore. I can see why MA did this but it does take away from the excitement and experience I had back in the day.

Nothing you have said has gone against my assertion that you need to investalot to getalot now

Back in the day, a noob could walk south-east out of Port Atlantis (the initial spawn), hunt the snabble with the TT gun and potentially get a 200+ ped loot (FULL OF ITEMS TOO).

That will never happen today - because the loot is so clearly tied to risk/investment in a way that makes mobility between the strata almost meaningless (Unless you get ridiculously lucky)

This happen also today , still seeing +500 ped hofs on puny (.30 pec /kill ) , problem is that after loot 2.0 still exist big unbalanced returns , managing to lose 1500 peds on hunt in 5 hours shooting. If you have 3 days in a raw like this it’s impossible to take that back . As I saw in last 2 months big hofs are reserved only for 9-10 avatars.

Because on the other hand the same noob who ask for a 200 ped loot sent so many support cases and constantly complained on forums that they want their loot to be more constant (towards their 90% whatever).You can't have both.If you want the thrill of seeing daily 20k + you have to accept that returns on small period of time can be as low as 60-70% whatever.
People enjoy good loots only when it happen to them and constantly complain when others get fat ones and they look into their pocket and see bad result.A weak mind will not understand and their first action is to complain , yell , demand, point fingers, scam , casino, choosen, poster boy, marketing avatar and 200 more other examples.People can't just handle the truth, truth hurts.
Everything you see today is the result of people complaining over and over.They demanded it now they have it.
Enjoy

Whatever you say man - I know for a fact you could hit bigger hofs with less back in the day. As I said it's always been a casino but that seems to have struck a nerve with you.

Believe what you want about EU and more power to you (I clearly love it too) - I never came here to have this argument anyway.

Good luck

"You need to do better at incentiveising players congregate in different areas of the game. So many places are barren now, never a player around. This wasn't the case when I used to play, even the most backwoods tp would have a few people standing around. Now it's just a few hubs per planet and it ruins the immersion."

You do realise there is a lot more landmass now (different planets, space, etc). Even calypso is almost three times the size the old pe calypso was.
