EVE General Discussion

Ever have a dream about Eve? Post it!

When I got my first Chimera, I used to have stress dreams that my overview dial was all in red, and the Chimera was in structure about to explode. I hated that carrier!

Dreams don't really make sense. I had an EVE/Little Mermaid combo on Sunday night. I'd crashed my ship.. i remember it was yellow so maybe my Venture.. and it was a water landing and I wasn't in a pod, I was in a seat (looked like leather) in front of a bunch of controls. And then I had to escape from the bottom of the ship into water.

When I hit the water I started sinking, saw bubbles going up.. and when I ran out of breath I felt water pass through these slits under my arms. And I had a fish tail, like Ariel. And I had an iPad thing where I was checking my wallet and science jobs. And after that was hours of clicking things on the iPad looking thing on a bunch of EVE interfaces but it was all pretty random and frustrating.

I had a dream about EVE Online once, strange that I still remember it.
Anyway, I was flying a Thorax to a water planet, and I proceeded to dive into the ocean with it to help my Corp. none of which I knew or had met, or even remember joining in the first place.
Anyway, we had to attack this giant sea monster to get its' biomass to produce some crap or other.
I don't remember what happened after I started attacking it, only that it ate me and I tried to attack it from the inside.

Strange dream to have =P

i had one few years ago :) . i just remember dark red nebula somewhere in nullsec, and that i supplied local with something called "popo".. i dunno what it is or what it means I just remember that word...

I'm usually in a big, slow ship like a freighter or carrier, trying to get away from someone chasing me. I always seem to have a hard time picking a celestial to warp to, or I get scrammed right before entering warp.

Last game dream I had was a weird amalgamation of EVE, Minecraft, Civ 4 and Empire: Total War. Words cannot describe it, but it was kinda cool and awesome.

Dream Well

i had dreams when i was just starting out, the game would literally keep me in a twilight sleep. i would wake up and hurry on. man those were the good days. now its like meh, i'll log in i guess

I do not, I have children, I sleep like a rock.
Edit: assuming I get to sleep.

I dreamed I was a majestic Thorax flying through the vastness of space. Weightless as I roamed through the heavens, my blue and green paint job gleaming in the light of the Gallente region nebula. After what seemed like an eternity, I came across another ship in the void... a shabby looking mining barge.

I had been alone for so long, I felt an instant attraction to this companion soul I had finally found.

With much haste and excitement I rushed to its side, and as soon as I touched it.. it recoiled. "Come back!" I yelled into the vacuum as I approached it again. Once again it recoiled as I touched it, moving a little further away this time. "Please!" I begged, "Please come back.. you complete me!". I activated my Microwarp and chased after the piece of my soul that was sailing away from me. Again, away it flew as I touched it.

My heart sank. Why.. why do you do this to me! I just want to be friends!

Once again I sang my heart out into the darkness. "I just want to be with you...". All I ever received back was silence.

One last time I chased my soulmate down, overloading my engines in order to be closer to it, to be with it, to touch them once more. As our hulls touched, sparks flew, and away my love flew.. far away this time.

Rejection started to get to me. Was I destined to be all alone in this universe? I watched from afar this time as they slowly came to a halt. We were over 80km from our original rendezvous now, the belt seemed far behind us. I watched the screen.. waiting for a reply, anything.. a blinking light.. something. Nothing..

My scanner flared to life.. could it be? Yes! two more ships were in the vicinity! Joyous day! With a dull thud, the two emerged from warp, five kilometers from my friend. Giddy with excitement I spoke a salutations into the com terminal.

The reply came swiftly. "Thank you my friend for your work." the gruff voice announced.

"My work?" I questioned.

"Yes, it appears that this miner has no permit. We also monitored your communications and noticed it to be a one sided conversation. We suspect the pilot is away from the cockpit at the moment, possibly asleep, possibly watching a holoreel, either way they are not where they should be. You also bumped them far from the belt, and they did nothing to attempt to return. So you see, you have done us a great favor, and you shall be rewarded."

I watched in horror as the two ships opened fire on my companion, stripping away its shields and armor with ease. Open wounds in the hull poured flame as the atmosphere contained within was sucked out. Moments later the bright flash of its reactors going critical filled my vision. When my vision returned, my companions ship was reduced to a smoldering wreck. Tucked down inside, barely visible from my window was the faint green glint of a pod. My companion had survived!

I called out to him.. hoping.. a response is all I wanted.. let me know you are alive!!! Nothing. How could all of this happened without my friend noticing? Could they be so absent that even the ship exploding around them failed to wake them or even get their attention?

A second later, some blaster fire penetrated the wreckage and found its mark, and the pod was destroyed. My friend was truly gone now.

I watched as the two other ships warped away. What should I do now? I searched the wreckage of my friend and found many viable modules within, unfortunately, none of them were a defensive module. Had my friend failed to fit his ship with any amount of tank? Had he cared only about the amount he could mine instead of the welfare of his vessel? Sadly I scooped all of the useful bits my friend had left behind, and my salvage drones picked the hull wreckage clean. My last act before I warped off was to collect the floating corpse of my friend. At least now... I wouldn't be alone anymore.

Later on, I remember my wallet blinking. Those two men who had killed my friend had transferred me some money. 10 million ISK. I got 10 million ISK for watching my friend die.

I then looked in my cargo at the corpse of my friend.. Well, I better not let this go to waste. I punched in a command to a servant drone to bring the corpse to my quarters. I hope I had some clothes that would fit her.. because the tea party we were about to have would be awkward if she was naked.

..and then I was woken up by the FC yelling "BUBBLE THE GATE!!!!!". We caught a shuttle.. the best kill of the evening.
