EVE General Discussion

So when I was in the military a bunch of people heard that I play eve and all ended up playing eve, most have stopped due to getting out of the military or still being in but either training all the time or spending the little free time they have with family.

1 guy recently restarted and he wasn't the brightest person but ingame he takes it to a whole new level of lazy and brainless.
Ive talked to him about various things, given him EUNI sites and youtube videos but "its to much work"

It took me 12 hours on a Saturday after hauling myself 28 jumps from incursions to help him do missions for him to go to a market hub every mission. Now your asking your self "why did this guy go to market during every mission, was it before the mission or after?" the answer to that was during the mission, he liked to go into the mission with only the ammo in his guns and none in his cargo.

finally convinced him to go to the market and buy a crap ton of ammo, he bought 300k rounds. Now most of us in eve knows when we go shopping you take something with cargospace right? Well not this guy, he took his battleship bought the ammo and "ummm the ammo doesn't fit in my ship." *double face palm*

so now we are running missions and he went afk in the mission, and I don't mean like afk I need to bio, it was afk I need to go for an hour to eat. I figured he was smart enough that as we just warped in the pocket when he said he needed to go eat, that he knew to warp to station or a planet or something that wasn't going to have rats. he asked "hey you got this mission while I go eat" and im like "yeah easily, just warp to station and you can rejoin whatever mission im on." him "*silence*"

I ofcourse yelled at him an hour later when we came back from eating.
him"well I do other things"
me:"so do I" him:"no you dont"
me:"i have 2 clients of eve up, 2 browser games" music playing, eating mac and cheese, and reviewing my notes for alternators, motors and generators, and still maintain full awareness of whats going on"
him: "so"

how the hell do you teach someone when they require you to hold their hand from the second they log on because the wheel is spinning but the mouse is dead. he refuses to read, or watch anything (even some of the ones that don't take the game seriously can pick things up watching moving pics right? right?!?!), he soaks up nothing I tell him when I dumb it down to the most possible level.
"go to market, buy industrial with big cargo space, buy lots of ammo, put ammo in cargo, set course back for here which is 3 jumps, you CANT get lost" "but my industrial is 10 jumps away" *facepalm* keep in mind this guy has over 600m isk and considers is a lot investing in ammo for a mission or mining crystals

so far mining is the only thing his speed and ive already seen him years ago. die to belt rats because he went to the shop and just sit in the belt, and his choice of mining is horrible sitting in ganker infested areas as he watches other people die and it doesn't dawn on him.

ive described this game to him that it takes a bit of brain power and there are consequences.
past telling him to go back to world of tanks, which drove him here due to cheating that now runs rampant in the game and such I don't know what else to do.

What worries me most....they let those guys in the defense forces to protect your country???

Wait a minute??? Cheating in world of tanks?? Now if that wasn't bad enough I'm going to ask about that cheating again. Is there truely cheating in the game now? As in worse than hitskins? Or are hitskins the cheating you speak of, because they made using them against the rules.
