Logged into Eve for the first time last night. Beautifully crafted game. Lovely atmospheric soundtrack. Spent a few hours just customizing my toon's look and bio, familiarizing myself with the UI, and starting the tutorial. Seems easy enough to pick up, but the amount of depth and freedom in the game should really suck me in. So, those who are about to die salute you! Lol

Just one question, I did purchase the Caldari Explorer pack. Should I finish my trial account before installing it?

Oh, and here's Ichi's theme song: Snog - Corporate Slave. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXXzaaL8Khw

I feel the same. This game is awesome and I'm totally addicted.

Fit 10 of these as best you can with the skills and money you have available:

Do a little reading on what those mods do, what ranges they work at etc...

Get a 6-pack, fly to the top belt at 100km in a busy low sec system, put the below song on

and then type this in local:

How does the established player base feel about newbies in this game? I understand everything revolves around competition, but hopefully it's not cutthroat enough to drive away the majority of new blood.

Goons have some of the best propaganda posters:

LOL! Dunno man, I'm a little scared of losing my Eve cherry in a gangbang!

It'll probably happen while I'm busy hacking and be over so quickly, I won't know what happened.

So I'm 4 days into play. Taking it slow in the high sec starter sector. I've got a skill plan based on exploration, so I've got my Int set to 36 and Mem to 30, everything else down to 26. I picked up all the basic skills recommended in the tutorial missions and market. Now I'm going for level IV on all my Int/Mem skills, then remapping to Int/Per once my +9 booster runs out in 9 days. I figure since most of the skills I'm going for in Exploration and Military are based on those two stats, it'd be beneficial to spec into them. I also went ahead and joined a corp to explorer the social aspects of the game. So far so good.
