This might be an incredibly stupid question, but how important is resolution? I can either go full potato 1920x1080 60fps+ or like 50 fps everything maxed at 1600x900.
Jeremiah Cook
This might be an incredibly stupid question, but how important is table size? I can either get a 2 meter wide table or like 1.5 meter wide table.
Dylan Wilson
This might be an incredibly stupid question, but how important is money? I can either go full wageslave $10/hr or like apply to college and die before i'm debtless.
Dylan Sullivan
This might be an incredibly stupid question, but how important is a corp? I can either join All-Out and live in w-space or like join Pupper and get free thrashers.

If you played linear MMORPG's for all your life, its incredibly difficult to get into EvE because you have to change your entire mindsetting.
I don't know what to do, where to go, what path to chose. I have like 5m SP ready but no idea what i should put them into
James Walker
fun per second is not important Higher resolution means you can fit more stuff on your screen Stuff you need
Landon Cox
You talk to people. EVE is the players. You'll want to do something with them.

Sell everything and start travelling, don't even look where you are going, who cares if you end up in low/null/wh just find stuff

>You'll want to do something with them. See, thats the issue. I don't know what exactly CAN be done. I don't know what exactly a fresh player CAN do. I do want to do something, but i have no fucking clue what it looks like in EvE.
There is no clear goal, no "endgame", no gear treadmill, and for the millions that have only played such mmo's its quite difficult to fully...grasp the whole scale of this game.
John Harris
Join Pupper.
Julian Perry
See, thats the issue. I don't know what exactly CAN be done. I don't know what exactly a fresh human CAN do. I do want to do something, but i have no fucking clue what it looks like in real life.
Parker Lopez
That's why you talk to them. Just find some randoms and talk to them. Or talk to people in /v/ bros.
If you're too socially retarded to do that, set yourself a goal to become a good PVPer and work on that by learning to fly frigs.
Jose Lewis
>npc mining response fleet >"advanced AI" >it's just rats with bajillion ehp and infinite reps
Jason Cruz
But yeah, I think CCP could do something about new players. Give them some general directions in-game, so they don't have to google that picture.
Ryan Sanchez
I told you to hold at the gate you dumb niggers. Don't never ever jump without my permission if you want to fly with this alliance.
Jacob Wilson
Not even comparable since table size is affected by how much space you actually have in your room, and what you plan to use the table for.
Evan Turner
If you plan to mine, you don't need huge resolution either. Pretty comparable.
Samuel Bailey
It seems like the amarr f2p accounts are at an extreme disadvantage compared to caldari and gallente characters
Without higher cap skills the amarr characters pretty much can't compete with a caldari or gallente character purely because their cap needs are way less
Hudson Wright
>no walking in stations >dogshit apparel choices >no real beards >no new hairstyles >instead you can get this skin for €8 when did you realize that ccp is a bunch of hack frauds?
Jayden Jones
Somebody who's not a retard in this general? But MUH AMARR
Austin Cox
kys
Jack Gutierrez
I think it also reflects the balance of the cruisers in general. A Caracal can out perform an omen in virtually every way even if you don't use rlml. The omen has to blow tons of cap on guns then run a prop mod where the Caracal simply doesn't have that
Gavin Gomez
>even if you don't use rlml
stopped reading there. that's total bs
Thomas Brown
So what's the hot new corp to join? DoomedFromTheStart seems a bit dead
Carter Myers
this complaint doesn't seem specific to new players. if lasers use twice as much cap as hybrids with low skills, they're going to use twice as much cap as hybrids with high skills. except on those ships with the cap bonus that you guys all hate and think are terrible
Easton Green
The amarr lasers aren't an issue when you have all the cap skills necessary it's especially bad for the f2p vs other races because without cruiser skill up or the cap skills up or the controlled burst skill up it sucks so fuckin bad
Cameron Sullivan
people with high skills use cap boosters too, and they provide far more cap than you need

F2P player here. What are the pros and cons of each faction? Why is Amarr bad?
Nicholas Sanders
Amarr isn't bad, but Amarr ships require above-average skills to work proerly that Alphas don't have access to.
Alexander Hill
New F2p here too
Can one play this game without too much fighting/war and be more like...a manufacturer and vendor or something like that?
Kayden Thompson
...
Samuel Green
Yes. You can haul, trade, manufacture, research. This is a good way to make ISK.
Mining is pretty poor income on a per-account basis.
Do what you enjoy. Sandbox game.
Josiah White
Sure. You can mine, craft, or even just buy low in a sector, and move it to sell high in another sector. Although that's always dangerous, specially if you go through low-sec / null-sec. Probably best to get into a corp that does this sort of things and has people who can escort.
Evan Ward
Amarr has the coolest looking spaceships
Parker Robinson
I don't think I'll get anywhere with this but might as well.
How is one supposed to approach skills? I'm still getting a feel for the game so I'm not entirely sure on what path I'd like to focus on. Whenever I try looking up some general skills guide or anything like that, it's essentially "Hey here's 50 basic skills have fun." With a quantity that large it's hard to know what should be given priority, what might not be needed depending on your path, etc.
Evan Hughes
I would prioritize fitting and capacitor skills. Then I'd work on gunners and weapon skills followed up by ship skills
Hudson Cox
Damage, rate of fire.

It's apt to skill for specific fits and playstyles. General training takes the character through a swashbuckle of being awful.
Cameron Taylor
>training 3 months for 1 ship >not training for 20 ships and being 90% as good at each of them
Leo Reyes
ded game, ded general. even worse than path of exile
Luke Hughes
What if getting concorded meant you had to pay damages for whoever you blew up
Say the cost would scale with the insurance payout of the person you blew up, plus a couple diminishing percent of the value of fitting+cargo
Then introduce player debt, where if you can't afford the damages you instead become indebted and get a 15% tax placed on you that goes to the victim, until your debt is settled
Then make drop rates 100% and make concord respond slower the more times in a 1-hour span it was forced to respond in the same system
