Hello everyone.

I have not played the game in a long time but I want to get back into the game. What I would like is some advice before I boot up the game like what would be a good thing to do just to get me moving in the right direction etc

Thanks in advance.

Try undocking.

Seriously - how should anyone know if you don't tell us what you like in the game?

This.

Biggest thing though is making some friends. It makes whatever you're doing far more fun and rewarding.

It's a game. play around with stuff. There is a lot of stuff in this game that you just kind of have to get a feel for. Once you've done the tutorials and made some friends and feel halfway confident that you can do the very basics then play around with different things and see how they work. Try different ships try different modules try different weapon system. Just play around.

Join a small sized newbie friendly corp, they'll help you on your way to the right direction, gain their trust then rob them and AWOX them. Seriously, bro? You can at least tell us what the right direction is for you. Money? PvP action? Women? Blackjack?
