>Is it too late to start playing EVE?
No.

>Can I play the full game without paying for it?
Yes, Eve is F2P with some restrictions and you can earn enough money ingame to get a subscription.

>I want to play EVE, what should I do?
Get 250,000 free Skillpoints by using any referral link(chaining them with friends works best).
If you have no friends create two accounts and refer yourself, you'll need an alt anyway.

If you upgrade to Omega send me a mail with the date when you upgraded and I will give you the entire PLEX.

>Now what?
Do the Tutorial then the Career Agent missions; they give you ISK, ships, skillbooks and teach you basics. Talk to players and try to find a corp. The game is only as boring as you are.
No, really. Find a corp.
You don't want to be that guy.

first for cap

Thanks Kev

So Oruze Cruise let Reyni in, clearly the standards have dropped, so feel free to apply with your awox alts so we can speed up the death of this corp.

>Reyni

Patch notes are out.

>An underlying and far reaching EVE code issue has been identified and fixed. This should resolve various issues across New Eden, including the drone window becoming unresponsive, overview entries not updating/removing, ship HUD issues (including a ship's speed not updating correctly) and more.

about fucking time

Never heard of them.

Daily reminder that the moros is worse than the nag in every way

>Brave is moving to the south to get away from PL

didn't see this one coming

>just went over 80M SP
Is it time to buy 20 PLEX, set a queue and forget EVE exists?

Maybe when they get stabbed in the back by tesco it will finally be the end

How much of a SP boost will be cerebral accelerator? I found i have come old accounts with shitty alts (4.8m with mostly in in mining and 2.3 mostly in gunnery) and thinking if it's worth revivng them or making new ones.

4.8 and 2.3 are better than the new ones

>made 200m in a couple of hours of ratting in a VNI

why did I fall for the brave meme

I wonder if brave leadership isn't just a bunch of PL alts who created a huge scam to farm new players

While Brave is not a scam, farming them to force people to join Horde is literally PL's plan. Obviously.

Brave are great to get pvp experience with, but less so to make tons of ISK. It's possible that they're finally realising that feeding pl content whenever they appear to shit on them won't get rid of them, and that fucking off elsewhere is the best way to deal with them if they're intent on farming you and you can't escalate to meet their forces. It goes against Brave's instinct to take fights and have fun, but regrettably has to be done. It's not something that's easy for leaders to deal with, although I've no idea whether Brave leadership has improved since they were last in catch.

Which meme big alliance did you join?

Okay...even though 2.9m is mining i will leave thiss one untill i decide what to level him in, maybe just standard PI but feel wastefull without training all 3 slots, or just meme ORE miner.
And i guess and i guess make taht 2.8m one into pirate mission runner or again PI...

I'm sure PL has some grand plans, but really doubt this is one of them at the min. PL is largely run by whichever FCs are active at the time, so if a few people decide having a go at Brave is fun then they'll go and kick over their sandcastle at the min. A lot of Horde leadership is actually pretty pissed off with PL for repeatedly destroying local content, with Brave being a great source of content for new players and training for FCs that is wandering off to the south.

I bet 100isk it was karmafleet

On a not so bitter note, I did learn a lot in brave, and I would recommend the Corp to anyone who wishes to learn how to live in null, fleet ops and pvp. Most people in brave are also really friendly and fun.

And no I didn't join Karmafleet nor Horde. I'd rather kill myself than being part of PL or goons.

so does this guy just suck egons dick or does he service other people too?

>why did I fall for the brave meme
because you listened to the /dog/ retards

If you are in a big meme alliance you are missing out.

what's a meme

>paladin

>overload mwd one cycle
>nothing took heat damage
>"cool, I can overload one cycle per dock at no cost!"
>dock, undock, 0 heat on ship
>overload one cycle
>half my mods take 18% damage
h-help
What did I do wrong?

>>"cool, I can overload one cycle per dock at no cost!"

no

Lewd

Why not? It worked like 10 times in a row before.
And now half my mods burned.
Are T2 modules more heat resistant or something? Only non-t2 took damage.

youtube.com/watch?v=7V3ueIUBr3U

There is a little RNG to overheating but not much.

>the shittier the art, the higher the odds of finding a watermark in it

>Can't go on fleet ops or roams because I don't have 3 hours of free time to spare most days
>Don't do home system defense because I know the defense fleet is incompetent as fuck
Wat do for PVP?

Find a better job than lets you have more free time.

Did this game ever become undeaded? How did f2p go. Did they fix links. Is it fun yet.

Still dead

I'm expecting Sunday when they do their show they'll tell us how alpha retention is going

No still not fun

F2p didn't do much.
A bit dead.
There are no more links.
Sometimes fun but mostly same shit.

Thanks for the link.
So it's a RNG-based heat "bleed" damage, huh.
Since the MWD itself never took damage, yet at least, I'm assuming that excluding the "bleed" there's a heat threshold after which the overheated module itself starts taking damage.

So if I have nothing but an MWD fitted, I can actually get away with 1 cycle overload for free.
Can't imagine where that'd prove useful, but nevertheless good to know.

what's wrong with it?

dead doesn't mean anything. kys

deep

He's right though. Calling a game dead in the /v/ way is meaningless because 99% of games that are mentioned as dead that way still have enough players to do anything you want.

>get a environmental damage mission
>combat probes on d-scan
>oh dis gun b gud
>permarun mwd so I'm an easier target for probes

Nooooooooooooo! So close!
He was in a shitfit underskilled cruiser too, would have been an instakill I'm sure.
Literally saved by not using sisters' probes.

Lucky bastard. That'd learn him a valuable lesson.

>/v/
You walked through the wrong board, kiddo.

Nope. You did. And you should go back.

>le not /v/ meme

awful

But this is Veeky Forums.

>in TEST
>spent the last months moving, fighting and burning through my Isk
>entosis shit all day every day
>fucked up sleep schedule because of all the timers in Russian TZ
>leadership invites fucking BRAVE to catch and sets them blue

Yes. That's why you need to go back to /v/.

the posts quality suggest the posters are from /v/

>tfw been on a 13.9" screen for 2 years now
>getting a 34" ultrawide in 4 days time

Can't wait to actually see my spaceship and the other half of my overview

>we here on Veeky Forums are much more classy than /v/ plebs

As opposed to Veeky Forums shitposting and passive aggressive meme arrows with no response

I bet you'd say that dyel or poo in loo are vg memes too if they were posted here, you fucking moron

But I am not from /v/?

Thanks for all the free ratting friend.

>no more links
woah they actually did it? Maybe I'll come back. Is hazing alpha clones a thing? Or is CCP still obsessed with preventing fun.

your questions are stupid

for you

If i answer your questions, will you leave?

"Hazing" alphas is no different than hazing anyone else. But if you are asking if you can gank newbies in starter systems- you can't. You can shit on mining ventures in other high sec systems, those are mostly alphas.
>ask if the game is dead
>wants to fuck over new players
I hope you at least give them some advice.

Are the Guardian's Gala sites on Sisi yet?

Maybe he asks if the game is dead to know whether he should invest into making it dead.

That's what you get for being in a cucked, pants on head retarded Reddit alliance like TEST.

How much worth of cargo is 591k tank freighter capable of moving without becoming a target of opportunity?

about tree fiddy

Get out with your /co/ memes this is Veeky Forums not /co/ go back to /tv/ this is Veeky Forums you can't use this meme here go away leave now please go

Keep it under 1b and use a webbing alt. Jita-Amarr isn't worth doing yourself because courier contracts are so cheap.

The guys that are ganking freighters make so much Isk that becoming a target is more of a question of how bored they are.
They'll gladly spend some Isk just to fuck with you.

I don't think I ever ganked a new player. I killed some new player in a war dec but I'm pretty sure he didn't care because he spent the next 2 months following me around asking advice. Now that I think about it I took a bunch of new players out on suicide roams to FW so I guess I'm a big guy.
Imma go check on my old corp and see what they are up to. Hopefully they left homospace.

It's not for trading, it's for suitcasing.
Trying to estimate how many trips do I have to split my goods into.
First estimate is 2 trips: high volume hulls (~1-1.5b) in freighter then low volume mods (2-3b) in something safer like a blockade runner.

But I may have to do more trips to ensure safety.

hey redditchan. is eve dying?

>ferox.jpg

make your home defense fleet great again

what nullblob?

gotcha senpai

infinite ammo

>hurricane.png

we don't have any hurricane memes though

Time you made some then

>tfw only stay in corp for the blue standing with local bullies and being too lazy to move

Is there any reason to fly a Kronos over the other marauders aside from being able to roleplay as a police officer with the skin?

are you unronically pvping with it

>want to play the game
>don't know what to do
Please no "go back to WoW".

Someone will post the career tree, its a great image but I don't have it on my phone.

If shooting corp mates who stray out of the "arena" whenever we do sisi tournaments counts as pvp, then sure.

Is EVE dying

I saw it, and I'm not even new. It's just I don't really enjoy any activities. Big fleets are just pressing F1, PvE is a boring grind, solo is way too slow, I don't have the patience to roam around doing nothing trying to find a good fight, I don't like trading, small and micro gangs is what I enjoy the most, but I don't those that often. And they are not always great too. Maybe I should find another corp. I'm not really a social person so being a FC or social engineering is not for me either. I just don't know man.

I am not sure that it is the case. Other than cause they can, PL fucks with Brave because they are bad at the game. That's why Horde was created, Brave got stomped for being shit at the game and they wanted to make a newbie corp that didn't suck ass.

Also I am not sure what PL's endgame would be with supposedly feeding people into Horde. Horde keeps all its taxes (not sure about moons though) for Horde. And a lot of the time PL doesn't even cooperate with Horde outside of a few key people who are present in both organizations.

Honestly the most fun I'm having atm is as a tackle in any size fleet. Even in big fleets its a lot more engaging than just F1. You're free to look for targets, grab stragglers trying to make a getaway from bubbles etc. I'm getting a lot better at piloting and I've secure quite a number of kills for my mates this way too.

honestly I just wouldn't play the game dude. Eve isn't even that great of a game in the grand scheme of things, its just that no other game makers have had the balls to step up to compete.

Horde is PL's insurance policy. They've got all the FCs, Isk and caps they need but they cannot field huge subcap numbers on their own. There's only so many ships their members can multibox.

Without Horde PL would be vulnerable to NCdot, Russians and Goons. Even TESTCO could put up a good fight.

what did he mean by this?
