/eog/ - EVE Online General

DED Edition

>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.

>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.

I don't get the point of a TD bonused ship, you'd rather prefer a ship than can fit as many unbonused ones to cover as many hurricanes as possible.

>fit as many unbonused ones to cover as many hurricanes as possible

>have 100m SP char with stupid name and ugly face
>5m SP alt has the best name and is pretty
>tfw urge to extract all SP is growing every day
S-should I do it? Will I regret it later?

Daily reminder that WH space is best space and that CCP should remove local from Null.

Why would you not fit your many disruptors to a ship with a bonus instead

whats the fastest and easiest way to greif someone without being banned /eog/?

Buy an orthrus

thrashers in jita

Because you'd be primary then on an obvious td ship.

>xey think the fit i posted is a blobfleet ship

>tfw too cute too stay in Horde
>can't decide if I should join Goon or TEST

So fit a tank or use your silly long range

>even considering joining goons
despicable

Honest question from someone reasonably new to Eve and has never been to Something Awful: What's so bad about Goons? Allegedly they present themselves as trolls and griefers but is that any different from Veeky Forums?

why?

>big space
>good ratting
>huge super fleet on standby to rescue my VNI
>put in the work and you can be in a Titan after a year

>trolls and griefers
Most 4chins aren't trolls and griefers.

>ratting channel mysteriously quiet
>unfinished rock havens and sanctums because capital spawns
>2 hours later they still havent despawned

Present goons have literally nothing to do with SA anymore.

>PL truegoons hate them because most members have nothing to do with SA
>ex BOB and affiliates hate them because they're goons
>empire scrublords hate them because of burn jita and miniluv
>dumb people hate them because they got recruitment scammed
>pvpers hate them because they don't fight and only mine
>elite pvpers hate them because they're low skill blobbers that drop supers on anything
>ex MBC hates them for fleeing to lowsec instead of fighting during World War Bee/Casino War
>former allies hate them because they didn't defend them

they talk about themselves a lot and are basically just fags all the time. I also get the impression that they're pretty insular and their members don't mix with the rest of eve much

>elite pvpers hate them because they're low skill blobbers that drop supers on anything
Then bring something other than ceptor blob

If isk is not a problem for you, then why not.
JonnyPew did exactly that a while back.

>start exploring in Stain because Sansha loot

Stain is a meme region. Don't bother exploring here.

>have to bother with making safe spots
>omg you mean I'm not entitled to absolute safety???
>eve 2017

>le make lots of bookmarks
>good gameplay

>making safe spots is fun
It's not the safety I'm worried about. It's the fact that making safe spots is tedious and boring.

>join a chill little corp of nice people I found out on the border of low/null area
>realise they're all total carebears and their idea of a war has so far netted them 15 losses to 2 kills

Honestly they're such cuties I love them. I'm fitting up a bunch of ships to go hunt the few neuts and war targets around and even the score. I feel like my high activity and thirst for pvp will actually make a difference here.

What's the name of fucking skins i'll just buy them.

Holy mother of shitfits

You can cry to CCP and hope they will allow you to change face. Or they just say "buy appearance token lol".

I still have "you can change appearance once" thing from somewhere(maybe its from when models were added?), i dunno where i got it, try to click around everywhere and see if you have it too.

Just buy an appearance change. If the name/race/sex is important to you then go ahead. I did that and I don't regret it at all. I'm more limited before but what I can fly, i fly much better. Also its nice to actually have that progression back if you're used to having everything playable already.

>"just make a safe spot 150km above gate so avoid bubble"
>just make a bookmark above gate
>gate that camped 20\7
>gate that bubbled 23\7
>gate that build jack.

alright i kinda can understand not being able to do this but why can't i just click on random spot on the map and make bookmark there?

Just use celestials if you can't make a spot

This particular gate was all alone with no celestial around it, don't remember, some nulllow gate.

You don't understand, he uses iron m intelligently to keep his hit quality on top, a sebo to offset the warp core stabilizers penalties, an overdrive because duh is an attack cruiser dummy, buffer shield and armor with hull rep on the side to cover all bases, and drone damage because thorax has a fucking 50m3 dronebay.

buy a set of tactical stain bookmarks if you're too lazy to make your own

>logged in alt, decided to setup PI on him (implying i will actually do it)
>like 3k isk, too lazy to log in on main
>bough alchogol on station, sold on couple stations away, bought two miners (i was in venture without fit)
>went to mine
>unironically liked seeing ore apper in my cargo and "estimate" going up
>felt great when rats attacked me so i decided to buy 2 light drones but i couldn't learn them so i tried to buy books but was out of money so i mined under rats untill i got enough
>Mined some more untill i got enough for 4 bases and industrial.
So this is the power of having any point to doing anything...Or maybe i like mining or something, i have miner alt leveling but that shit gonna take forever(and what do i do, just mine fucking pyroxide forever).

Speaking of PI, do i just train industrial, PI skills to 4 on one char and then switch untill all 3 don't have it, right?

You made an effort to make a picture for OP but didn't bother to clean the OP itself, what is wrong with you boyo?

Overpriced invul
Overpriced MWD
You don't really need the semiconductor rig, fit another CDFE instead
If this fit is for memesoloing, it might be a good idea to swap a small nosf for a faction cloak.

>250m vni makes isk 70% as fast as a 1.7b rattlesnake

Fucking god dammit.

>making isk by shooting npc

>250m VNI
>170m rattlesnake
dude where the fuck do you live

1.7billion

>EE practically bluing to SNUFF by joining CO2

What did they mean by this?

Is it okay to use rattle without mjd for l4 farm? Or anything without mjd at all?
I thinking about picrelated from some thread, but it feels kinda expensive for me...maybe change booster and amplifier to something else but i don't know.
Or i can go fullautist and get golem, what about it? Or maybe just machangiel to blitz? I just like to shoot everyone from time to time and not bother with speed (since i can't do burners anyway so blitz doesnt matter)

>picrelated
fuck

>doing any missions other than recons and burners
why

yeah, made a mistake
>1.7b snake
I blinged 80% of all mods and it's still at 1b, what's up with your prices?

3 faction dda, 3 faction ballist, 1 faction large battery, 1 faction cap recharger, gist x type x-large shield booster and gist x-type shield boost amp.

I just wanna. I'd take mara but i can only use golem but i guess it's only good with mjd...or not? But it does have 500 less dps. im gay.
just drop mtu, kill stuff, loot stuff, salvage stuff, that's what i want.

>can't do burners anyway so blitz doesnt matter
blitzing lvl4s (lvl3s can be good too) is still better isk/h even without burners.

if you want to afk go rat in a VNI

Is anyone here from TISHU? What do you guys think about them?

Well, vni is slow...isn't it? I don't really want afk rat, more like just sometimes i want to clear all guys, collect all loot and salvage all wrex and then put it in separate containers...i mean wtf, am i alone who sometimes wants to do something else than "just kill 2 frigs and warp off"?

reee, don't even know now.

Can someone explain the lowsec part to me? Is it because it's tacky, or because they're showoffs?

yeah then a golem is fine.

>not draining your cap to exit warp where you want to make a bookmark
It's almost like you are shit.

It's probably just some risk-averse whbaby talking shit, ignore it.

What's a good ship for hunting explorers?

What's "population percentage"? How is it measured?

Astero, bombers.

>rat stuck in colliders
>shoot it down
>exploding battleship zooms across my screen at 5km/s spinning uncontrollably
Is this the best bug in EVE or what?

youtube.com/watch?v=SGZ4EDQvC8w

5.51+20.07+7.64+66.78 = 100
It's the percentage of the eve population

how do they determine how much people live where you retard.

Calm down, carebear.

Was thrown off by you asking what it actually is, not only how it is measured.
soz lol

Please stop pretending to be retarded.

Ethnic gangs that maraud about beating the shit out of other people in Snakes sets.
Astero if you want to be a site bully, Bombers if you just want to kill the niggers for trespassing or letting you trespass

average % of playerbase in high/low/null/wh

>have been running sites the last month or so in high sec
>thinking about about trying 00 and wh
>see this
What can you honestly do about this bullshit?

jonnypew has actual autism

Completely new player here. Moved to Eve from retail Wow. Currently working through the agent missions. I know it's a long shot but are there any /eog/ players willing to show me the ropes on some things and answer questions? Skraekja Trad in game.

>running sites for a month in high sec
>sites in high sec
>for a month
>high sec
Honestly you should just kill yourself at this point.

Contact an agent of the new order of highsec for help creating content.

Join literally any meme tier alliance like TEST or PH and there are dozens of autists willing to suck your dick and answer any question you could possibly ask.

Fit a tank, accept that you could lose a cheap frigate once or twice to things like this and it's not worth being overly concerned about.

>he doesn't know
but then again, maybe that user doesn't know either.

Join EVE-Uni

Just how common is that sort of thing? People made it seem like the second you step beyond low gags will come to kill you and I'm still in alpha stuff so I can't run cloaks.

Noone cares about you. Null is mostly empty. Try it a couple of times and you'll finally stop being a little bitch. Your fucking Imicus costs 2mil, you'll make miltiply times that from a single can.

>Letting shitheads in to take shit from sov and scout for enemy fleets
Actually scratch that, we should do it more often and let the afk VNIfags die a bit more so we can fine them.

Shut up nullbaby.

>fine them
But I don't want to get fined. I was thinking about joining goon but now I'm scared, senpai.

Be nice to each other ok?

Staymad WHfag.
Don't be a shitter, keep an eye on local and you wont die. I only do what I do because blithering retards can't manage to even do that. When you have warning and situational awareness and you STILL lose a ship you deserve to get punished for being a lazy braindead fucknugget. And don't be a bitch, get on comms so we can make fun of your voice.

Fuck of CCP Seagull you tranny shitter.
