History
According to the developers Eve Online evolved from a classic computer game called Elite combined with the multi player chat and player versus player aspects of Ultima Online.[60] Elite had four single player aspects of missions,[61] mining, trade routes and combat with random hostile NPC's[62] all which are aspects of the first incarnations of Eve Online.[63] One of the original developers of Elite, David Braben, believes Eve Online is a reimplementation of 1980s game, not its true successor.[64]
