EVE Online

Carl D. Mildenberger

Chapter 5 in Economics and Social Conflict, 2013, pp 121-146 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract EVE Online (usually only called ‘EVE’ by players and developers) was published by CCP Games in May 2003. In January 2011, EVE had more than 390,000 active players and an average of around 30,000 concurrent users logged in at any time. On January 23, 2011, a new record of concurrent users was achieved: 63,170 users were simultaneously logged on onto the same server (CCP Explorer*, 2011). These numbers make EVE one of the internationally most successful MMORPGs at the moment.
