Great contribution to the thread buddy. :lol:

Im pretty sure grammar police went out the door with all the memes from 2010 and the dramatic chipmunk.

So what's the difference between a grammar cop and grammar nazi? Is one just more "PC" to say?

/end thread derail...

Sevenless: The only PvP restriction in EVE is that at about a dozen systems are flagged as "newbie" zones. If you gank people there, you can get permabanned from the game as there is no "private dungeon" areas to do tutorials and walkthroughs in. Other than that, how is EVE not a sandbox? If there's building restrictions, it's because of practicality. Other than that, it's as much MMORTS as MMORPG.

Pirates of the Burning Sea: How could I forget that one? I've played off and on since beta. It's fun. It's pirates (as in nautical combat like the various pirate games that have come out over the last couple of decades). I'm not too fond of the hand to hand combat. It's gotten better over the years, but some things still just seem lacking. The economy is a bit weird in that you accumulate production time for each slot economic facility you own. Basically, you own digital slaves and they do the work for you. (www.piratesoftheburningsea.com)

On the subject of pirates:

Yohoho! Puzzle Pirates--www.puzzlepirates.com If you like mini-games, this might be fun for you. Everything is done with a mini-game or puzzle. It's a bit of a sandbox in that anyone can do anything they want: pirate, PvE, sit around playing cards all day, play the economy, etc. However, when it comes to sailing the seas, it takes teamwork. There's only one captain per ship and the ship needs crew to sail it--upwards of 100 for the largest ship. This is another MMO developer that does clients entirely in Java.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

Ive never heard of anyone getting permabanned from killing noobies. 1.0 sec has Concord and 2 seconds after you engage your target your ship is in 100 pieces. Suicide gankers are even common around the Jita area. Killing anyone in .5 and up will give you a negative standing which if you accumulate enough will deny you access to the higher sec systems. The lower the sec system the slower response time concord takes to warp in and try to take out the aggressor.

As far as building in EVE, you can build in 0.0. Living in High Sec you can build research facilities if you can afford it. When Dominion expansion came out I spent numerous days building up my corps system with anchoring PoS and stations as well as system upgrades that allow wormholes to appear more frequent as well as complexes lvl 4 with rat bounties 1.5 mil. I spent a week there with my carrier/roraquol pilot and made a couple billion easy.

I wouldn't really consider that much a sandbox game. I mean there is some sand there , just not enough and a few cat turds in the box as well.

You cant build your own place anywhere, preplaced houses , keeps, that are built with deeds. I played for about a year or so, its an ok game. More of a FPSMMORPG then a sandbox.

From what I remember reading of this a while back it is a very quirky co-op game, you need to watch a video of it because the art style makes it hard to tell whats going on from the screenshots alone
