Eve Online General - /eog/

Tactical Supremacy once again showing Pandemic Legion whom is boss.

So how should i begin?
I like games that you can start guilds to fight other guilds and to maybe make alliances etc.
Is this how Eve is?
Will i have fun playing?

>guild

I would join another corporation. Trying to start your own is very difficult not because its gameplay is hard but because if you don't really know how to play the game how could you make your corporation more likeable for others?

I never made a guild even on MMOs that i played for years lol thats not my plan
Will it be hard to join a corp? Do they help newbies or something?

what's the best way to get game time? plex or monthly sub? how much plex is need to sub anyways? it's been a while...

500 plex = 1 oldschool plex = 30 days

depends on the corp

There are tons of new player corps to pal around with

Pandemic horde
Karmafleet
Brave Newbies

and more

How bad is the hazing?

just a timestamped dick pic and a 20-minute ERP sesh with your recruiter.

what the fuck do i do with a bunch of slightly damage crystals i dont fly >amarr

and i cant repackage them do i just reprocess or stick them in a contract and hope someone buys them?

>buy 440 plex
>get 60 FREE

where do i sign up

provide ships for a plate rep beam omen roam

I can't have my future corpmates see I only have 5 inches hard...

(((CCP)))

People have been asking that question for years.
You contract sell them or you do what everyone else does and keep them in a container called damaged crystals that only ever seems to fill up.

Is there an easy way to plot trade routes as an alpha hauler? most guides recommend using eve central to find where stuff is selling low and selling high but as far as I can tell that sites been down for awhile.

use Eve marketeer

Damage Control

How do I map tripwire wormholes without a second monitor and/or ingame browser :(

You get good at alt tabbing

Anyone know an incursion community/channel?
I'm a new player looking to try incursions in order to get some fleet experience.

/dog/ can't help you with that.

what are the details of the upcoming alpha balance changes?

Try getting into TVP. Don't really remember whats the name of their channel. Also there was a group doing smaller incursions ISN(iirc). If you will google TVP Im sure they will have their channel listed somewhere.

You can have alpha with 20m SP. The thing is, on alpha you can skill only same skills like now. To get into those 20m you will have to inject or get omega. AFAIK Alphas will be able to fly T1 BSs and have T2 small and medium guns

wow nice, i have a maxed alpha account right now. being able to fly t1 bs would be pretty cool

We should post /dog/ fittings into the community fittings

But to get those skills above alpha we have right now, you will have to inject them or plex and skill them as omega. The thing with new Alphas will be that they will be able to use some skills for Omegas, but only after they were skilled on Omega or injected. If you play only on Alpha, then current SP maximum will stay the same for you.

blobbers cant post anymore in this thread.

bye bye.

accurate

Someone is hauling them somewhere else to sell them for higher, and can only haul 3 at a time?

Or making Hulks from 3-run BPCs.

>quiet

Not anymore

I'm more than satisfied making one billion every few days, I only really need like 3bill in my wallet to replace losses. I don't know how or why nullbabbies feel the need to pve for hours on end, it's just not fun. I guess we don't have supers to aim for though so they've got more uses for the money.

the amount of autism in null is beyond richters scale.

people will literally laugh at you for suggesting that they should move to the optional staging for dank l33t content with "lol I can't make money there" while sipping roids with his 3 alts and super ratting at the same time

I also don't get their deluded idea that wormholers sacrifice ships to HK/Lazer to avoid eviction when we just fight because it's fun.

Gudfites isn't a meme, it's life.

Nice b8. Eve is cruel. Learn to survive. I was fucking over players with years of experience on me by week 3 of playing.

Here's the formula for Eve.

Power = (Skillpoints + Isk)^(Ruthlessness + Creativity)

Someone with infinite resources by a passive mind is a nonthreat. Someone with few resources but a dangerous mind is an extreme threat.

Varies heavily between corps, but the vast majority of eve players go out of their way to help new players. Just don't be a cockbag. That said, if you prefer to solo you can just join some guilds that don't have ops or one of the public channels. Either way you want to make contact with a regular group of players to help you out, but that doesn't necessarily mean going for group play. Could just be a buncha guys to shoot the shit with while you each do solo stuff.

Retribution

when is CCP going to make a ship design that isnt shit?

you're opinion is shit

>It's a CCP ruins another Caldari hull with a "redesign" episode

Nullbears don't understand fights between 100v100 f1 blobs, fighting isn't fun to them.

I've seen this episode before

>literally 5 billion a month for resetting your PI once or twice a week, even more if you can be bothered to reset it every other day
>have to probe literally only once a month when you have to ship the products to jita
I literally never have to worry about isk for the rest of my eve career and PI prices are about to spike too because of the new structures so right now the profit is even more absurd.

While this is some delicious bait, I can't help but agree to some extent.

Why is it that in Eve the default thing to do is to just kill indiscriminately? Some people even go out of their way of sitting for literal hours in a relic site waiting for a 2 mil heron to show up just so they can kill it.

I just don't understand what they have to gain from this? No one is impressed with an exploration frigate killmail and the loot is invariably terrible.

Because 2mil Herons can be full of relic loot worth tens or hundreds of millions. Not all of them are, but some are.

>Why is it that in Eve the default thing to do is to just kill indiscriminately?

it's fun

>Some people even go out of their way of sitting for literal hours in a relic site waiting for a 2 mil heron to show up just so they can kill it.

this is only fun if you have asperger's syndrome

>this is only fun if you have asperger's syndrome
No it not, not even for us
t. Person with asperger's syndrome

That would be called piracy. But I see your point, I don't get my jollies from killing people in newbie ships or very obvious newbie t1 frigates.

Sometimes I be doing lowsec piracy and attacking people in plexs every single one of them who is capable of fighting is a warstabbed bot and the few people who really do want to fight are 3 day old newbies in kestrels. It feels bad to kill them especially when your in shit like a garmur or Comet.

whspace sounds like hell

Its mostly boring hole jewing, and occasionally a T3 fight breaks out.

oh boy t3s they sure are balanced and a lot of fun

They have the best force to mass ratio in the game, it's an unfortunate side effect of WH mechanics.

Cry about it faggot no one uses the teng and proteus anymore because they're shit. Only the liking is good with the legion at a distant second

the tengu and proteus are still overpowered though

I'm Jewish.

why are you in a garmur?

I have a pile of money. Why wouldn't I spend it on ships?

if you want to fly a garmur you'll need a letter from a doctor explaining that you really have brain damage so it's ok

No they fucking aren't. The tengu is ass slow and can't compete with the loki with hams at all. The proteus is literally a shit legion with worse cpu and everything

The only thing I've seen people do with their proteus is fit up these retarded solo fits that get maybe 800 to 900 dps and go around solo cloaky hunting until they can find something they can melt. Other than that it's slow, useless and is inferior to the legion in every way

the loki is more overpowered than the others. they're still overpowered

lol no they aren't

>covops cloak free combat probes 999 dps 99999 tank every ewar bonus you can imagine

wormholefags talking about balance

stop talking about shit you don't understand
