Probably exploration, seems like a more entertaining way to make money than mining. At least that's probably how i'd start but i'm kind of fickle so will probably aim for something else at some point.
Well I found my old character on eveboard, now I just have to figure out wtf my account name was lol.
I tried it back in June and wasn't terribly impressed, but willing to take another look when it released. The graphics at that time were sub par and while the fittings were cool, the gameplay itself seemed very derivative. How is it looking these days? I might log in, should have a bunch of skillpoints unless they've reset since June.
The Chromosome build they put up yesterday was a big improvement. The rubberbanding and choppy movement is largely gone. LAVs have sound effects now so you can hear them before you get run over. Iron sites on rifles (big deal it makes the rifle jitter skills matter). Grenade improvements. Hit box improvements. More maps and they fixed issues with some of the existing ones. Yeah, basically I'm much more optimistic than I was 2 days ago. I tried to log into the EvE test server to put up a POS and preposition some stuff in the system all the matches happen in on Singularity but it looks like its somewhere in Jove space.
Directions are on this thread. Not sure if everyone still has beta vouchers or not but all EVE players should have received one. I've given out my extra vouchers already. You can use other people's unused redemption codes. Alternatively pay 20$ in the PSN store and get some goodies along with a beta key.
Stupidity strikes way more often than that. This was some of the action since Friday:
The key thing is, you have to go out there and join a corp. Whether it be a low sec pirate corp, one of the null sec powerhouses or some of the bitter vet folks in wormholes - it is absolutely essential that new players get into these groups. Players will just quit EVE if they treat it like a WoW-solo-player MMO.
Two things have stopped me from doing this. The main reason is because I hate to feel like a bother to other people (noob questions all the time, cost my team a fight because I screw up and it loses someone else a ship etc). I'm sure i'm not the only one who is hesitant to take their newbie self and join up with these groups for this reason (even though plenty of them are more than happy to help newbs learn the ropes).
Yes and no. When I found out that I could be warped by others in a mass move, that took my nervousness down a notch. If I go back I'd prob just be additional pewpew DPS rather than any type of specialist role where I have to be super on the ball.
Seriously bro. Two accounts. I hate the concept on principle and despise needing to pay for two accounts, but you can always farm for plex on the side, and a separate 2nd char/acct gives you a separate alt you can manufacture/trade whatever on while having active skills training on both.
So true > For the same reasons Wizardhawk is afraid to join a corp, too. The game gets to boring in high security areas, killing pirates. To rage inducing in low security areas. I dont know about two accounts though - 30 bucks a month isnt crazy talk, but I wouldnt be happy about spending it on the same game every month.
First off, don't EVER be afraid of making noob mistakes in this game. I know you have seen the learning curve cartoon, and every EVE player knows it is true. Any halfway decent corp/alliance will have a newbie program to get you sorted, and if anyone gives you shit the best defense ever is just saying you are new.
