10 Video Games With RUTHLESS Online Multiplayer

8. EVE Online

Call of Duty Modern Warfare
CCP Online

Now we come to the MMO scene. Eve Online from CCP Games remains a juggernaut of the genre. Immensely complex and expansive in its scope, this gargantuan online title offers a tough challenge for anyone who takes the plunge nowadays.

Across four separate races, the player chooses a ship and embarks on a grand odyssey across the game's star systems. There's one catch from the get-go; Eve Online is one massive universe comprised within a single server, so there's no avoiding bumping into the game's most experienced space captains. Be prepared to flee often and avoid conflict in the early going as you skirt around deadlier vessels.

The many factions and conglomerates of players will not hesitate to eliminate newcomers and knock them back to square one, but the game's greater difficulty comes from the sheer number of systems, ships and mechanics to learn. How do titans function when compared to superchargers? How does one go about joining a faction? Who controls which stretch of territory throughout the game world? These are just some of the questions you'll be asking when first getting into Eve Online, a title that remains highly unforgiving to those who haven't been playing it for all these years.
