EVE General Discussion

Ah reminds me of the EVE 101 ops that are run for newbies every now and then.

How to align, how to warp, how to warp at range, make sure not to burn straight at the enemy, point before you web, and so on and so forth. Also, how to not bump the titan.

What now man??? I did those horribly uninformative training missions...what now? Those things cover like, 2% of the info you need in EvE.

For starters are there any OTHER large scale training corps like EvE University? Respect to what they do but the application process to my real life university was quicker and simpler.

Is there a streamlined, one stop shop site to go to to learn the game? Damage types, ships, glossary of terms, etc??? Seems like there are like 5,000 diff resources and many of them conflict. It shouldn't feel like I'm studying for the friggin LSAT while trying to learn a video game....this ridiculous. I don't mind taking time to learn but holy crap.

(Fully expect SOME exp players to flame for this. I'm used to it. People get exp then act like they've forgotten how it is to be new and get some sort of ego boost from trashing new players. I deal with losers like this IRL all of the time, so it's no big deal).

So yeah...I'm basically just trying to streamline this whole learning process. What are some good Corps to join to learn? Good places to go to learn the VERY basics of the game.

I also notice that this game, unfortunately like many MMOs is very exclusive. The exp players have all of the money, items, influence and pretty much make it impossible for newer players to get in and learn through them. So we pretty much have to figure it out. My SP aren't even in the 7 digits yet....some corps are asking for 50 million SP minimums??? How high does it go?

You basically can't join a decent corp until you have that much SP??? So I basically have to play by myself until then? If so then this'll just be a little side hobby until something else comes out. A friend of mine referred me to this game, but he stopped playing. Not going to pay just to log in, put some skills in queue then log off, which is basically all I do now., and have been doing for the last 2 weeks. If this is how it is up until the millions point in SP then...yeah....not for me.

Well, don't do lasers they suck.

nullsecs dead cos only hard core players go there

How about, you are in your noobship and you are sent to fight a THRASHER and they tell you the ship is NOT as good as yours?

What kind of training mission is that?

im also new to the game
was daunting at first but after 2 weeks i new what i wanted and how to get it as for effective pvp
alone u will die like swtor did hard and fast i just don't get your attitude to the game info is every where there is no gear set like wow this is a sandbox different setups for different stuff u have the power here not some lamo instance that drops gear eve is for mature players the end game is to create waves in war or play the market and make millions what u do here is up to u as for the 50 million sp find another corp and be careful some will stick u in a ship stick u on guard duty and watch u die over and over again if u arent hard core go else where eve wont be for u if u cant handle failure and loss of ships dont play eve
if u cant survive buy your own will and stubbornness eve ain't for u


i play eve cos its a manssssssssss /womanssssssssssss game its hard and pounds u like a rock but once u crack that rock the diamonds are revealed and the power starts to flow eve is what u make it not what a dev makes it eve is your game not the devs that u follow


eve rules cos its hard if it wasn't i wouldn't be here and neither would most of the players
