excited about this, might give a much-needed boost to EVE's playerbase
always been a fan of a lot of their gameplay and design choices - it's clearly not for everyone, but it's a lot of what I want out of a space MMO

Not sure if it benefits from that for real. True fans were all right with payments.
Did it have any issues with activity recently?

I had enough even with trial accounts.
EVE is about teamplay, after all.

Gave it a shot once, even got a free fighter from Dab.
All I remember is that it was really boring.

This is a pretty similar game.

Eve Online is a great teamwork game, however it was grindy (cant really stress it enough) and time dependent, that is, you have to have a certain amount of hours in trained skills to be able to do certain things, and per say if someone had years over you, they have many accumulated bonuses.
However the large scale of the game was incredible, with its diverse supply and demand economy, and the varied ways of making money, and how everything (or at least mostly everything) was bought or sold by players.
Making the game F2P though might give a player boost that will stimulate the virtual economy there + more troops for more wars.

About the new Free mode, compared to the standard subscription one.

So here I am with 26 million ISK from my last trial... And?
Honestly, no idea. Trading/ ratting/ mining in background while working? Well, at least I can run it under my Debian, where I have all my studying stuff.
If only FL had its multiplayer working for me.
What I really love EVE for is its models.
