Logged in to try out the rogue swarm event. I had to make 8 jumps to pick up an appropriate ship. After docking and switching ships I then attempted to find a few rogue swarm beacons. This took me another 5 jumps!

Just this process alone I wasted 15 minutes of game time.

What a colossal waste of time this game can be.Idea

15 whole minutes!?! whoa!

Friend, if spending 15 minutes looking for something in this game is too much for you, I imagine you don't enjoy it here much.

Can we discuss your stuff?

If time sinks aren't your thing, find a nice single player game with fast travel enabled.

Really? Fifteen minutes is a colossal waste of time? Dude, you're playing the wrong game!! Eve wasn't designed to cater to the instant gratification crowd. How anyone could play this game for more than an hour and not realize this fact is mind boggling. Maybe a little history will help you to.....

...Oh, wait...Pandemic...that explains a lot.

Never mind.

Wow look at that risk averse carebear flying a small agile ship just to find a site then reshipping to a bigger slower ship to do that site. I just fly in the big ship I use to clear the sites themselves while searching for more.
