So I got my Dominix to go 236 million m/s, then it caught fire.

Picture or it didn't happen.

Discuss.

The Baked (Space) Potato maneuver. Very crafty, my friend, very crafty...

If I could only get Open Broadcaster to work I could show you my Orca doing what I have coined the 'Warp Tunnel Drift'
Also I wish the Orca was on the fitting list of the Micro Jump Drive.

Might be time to give fraps another try.

I hide my boosters in the sun.
Works quite well at keeping people away from them.

Have you tried bookmarking your spot in the sun, getting pushed out, warping to the bookmark, and then micro jump deeper in?

It more fun making a BM in a sun and fleet warping unsuspecting people to it. Not done this in a long while.

The star doesn't kick you out until you are about 85km from the bracket (Grey Celestial Dot). My Bookmark is very close to the edge. Depending on where you warp to it from you will either land and stay or land and get kicked out. Domi is slow so instead of flying to the kick point I thought it'd be fun to just jump into it using the MJD.

Actually my ship is leaving the star, and is going backwards, I got the screen taken before it turned around. And then it flew through space until it stopped and that took a good while, might have to time it.

bookmark the center of sun, warp to it
it will do same thing, without mjd, with any ship

Yes, using the MJD was just to have fun.

After I got my first in star bookmark I meet a guy with a sin. He was doing THIS.

And then I told him it might look cool in the star, so he did THIS.

So using a Sin would be cool. Run the Covert Jump Bridge while flinging off into a random direction and hair splitting speeds Blink.

Jesus... how old are those screenshots?

If EVE had been around that long I'd ask if they were from 1996.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)
