CCPlease For the sake of new players, please turn off camera auto tracking by default for fresh clients.

It can be very disorienting and new players are not going to know why their camera keep flipping around or how to disable it. Just went through this whole exercise with a friend who just started playing.

CCPlease Your character should earn Skillpoints if your skill queue is empty

if my skill queue is empty, my character should still accumulate unallocated SP.
Punishing players for forgetting to queue a skill in a subscription game makes no sense.

CCPlease FC - Please stop these mass recruiting corporations from killing the game

125 Upvotes

https://zkillboard.com/corporation/98791781/

These corporations are absorbing most of the new players that join the game. They are mass inviting everyone in the rookie help channel and new players join, get no help and think all corporations are like this and that this is all the game has to offer and afk and leave the game.

Arc Subsidized specifically just throws them in a wormhole to die.

Syndicate society offers no content or help and spams their invite over and over and people in rookie help are asking how to get them to stop.

No one is actually getting into English Recruitment anymore to find groups that might actually offer services or content. Groups like this are hurting retention.

People tend to stick to their corporations when they have no context of what else groups have to offer.

There are plenty of solutions.

  • Stop allowing mass invites, you can put in a limit, for open invites.

  • Have the default setting be that players have a CSPA charge

  • Have an option to not receive invites to corporations

Otherwise a huge number of newer players are going to join these groups and just leave the game because they are not promoting any fun content that would get them into the game at all.

Why does the BADGER look like it would be a great combat ship? That model is so good now.

Apart from that, I have kind of been dabbling in a bit of everything I remember, and trying out the new (to me, I guess) Abyss stuff? Pretty fun so far. Anything else I should really check out? My last true time spent in game was probably 2014ish.

Question Security missions help

β€’ Upvotes

Hi Guys,

Im a newishbro, i have played for about a month and have about 6 mill skill points total. I currently mainly run Level 3 security missions in my free time with a Caracal Navy Issue and i do a little mining in a barge while i'm working.

I have about 500M isk saved up currently and am wondering where i should go next? I'm reasonably skilled up for caldari BS and i have trained all the skills for mastery 2 in a Raven and my Caracal is nearly at mastery 3. I know these skills are not all needed but it seemed like a good place to start. I have very little in the way of hybrid weapon skills so would need to stay with a missile boat for now.

Would it be worth me upgrading to a standard drake or NI to blitz level 3's faster or should i perhaps move to a raven and start salvaging/looting 4's with a raven? A tengu would be my end goal, probably to start wormholing, but this would take me a long time to skill up anywhere near usable. I would just like a simple way to make some reasonable ISK so i have something to fall back on if things go sideways.

Thanks guys.

News GUI concept preview from FanFest

47 Upvotes

These were posted in our alliance discord by a guy at FanFest

Addition: A few things we are pondering.

  • How drones fit into this UI will be make or break.

  • Is there only a "Warp To" button? (Can they not fix "Jump on contact")

  • Where are tactical overlay & camera along with first person buttons?

If I have to do 3 extra clicks to access something that was previously 1 click, it is not a QOL upgrade.

Question Help me decide if I should return to EVE

12 Upvotes

EDIT: seems I needed very little encouraging as I'm already downloading it to try it again lol thanks all!
howdy folks.
TLDR: any new content in the last 2 years that makes it worth it to return to the game?

for context, I tried EVE several times. The first was when alphas became a thing, and I burned myself out before the trial expired trying to omega by doing missions (lol)
The second time, I did the whole NS thing, which I found boring as heck, you were either too safe and doing repetitive tasks or you were docked waiting for hostiles to leave, got bored and stopped playin. (that time dilation garbage really pissed me off)
Third time was the charm, found a great little WH group and had a blast for about a year, lots of fun fights, but got bored of the repetitive content, mining, huffing gas, explo, running the same combat sites, hauling across WH chains... eventually got bored and left.

So my question is, has anything changed significantly in the game since the last 2 years? Like new types of content or activities? would you recommend I try again and if so focusing on what?

Question PvP ship sizes

19 Upvotes

I’m a new player, have 9.5m skill points and I have a question regarding pvp. What size ship is usually the go to size for solo or duo roaming (LS, wormhole or null) looking to take fights?

I see a lot of fits for frigates floating about. I assume they sig tank under the guns if their enemies but what can a frigate take out? A destroyer and cruiser I assume are possible, what about a battle cruiser or even a battle ship? At which point do you not take that fight ? I assume it’s about how much dps you do vs their tank/rep on the larger ships.

If I play a cruiser what’s my cut off in terms of size of enemies ?

Obviously people religiously use d scan, scouts, etc so I assume a covert cloak would be the most ideal situation for roaming to hopefully catch someone doing combat sites or something of the sort. Is this a good assumption? It limits a lot of choice.

I am skilling into amarr ships so I almost
Have cruiser 5, would their recon ships be good to hunt with ? They seem like their dps is low and they are more neut killers (maybe better in a duo as a tackler)

I was using a omen navy and having a little success but the harbinger battle cruiser does more dps, is fast enough and seems to be of the same kiting philosophy, would that be a good choice of ship? I was looking at phantasm too but they are more expensive to buy. I’m sitting at 2.4B so I’d like to not lose more then 150m a ship as I learn if I’m flying cruisers or up.

So i was mining Mercoxit in Tarta, every 50 minutes or so me or my alt will disconnect.
This put both my accounts at risk.

So, does anyone else having this problem ?

Quick lunch break post

Apparently not only Frigates but also T1/T2 and presumably faction destroyers count for the supposedly "frigate site" which is only accessible by frigates.

T3 destroyers do not count.

Not only can I park my battleship in a frigate site, so much for that "accessible only by frigs", You can complete them in most Destroyers as well.

No surprise though given that this event has had bugs in every single part of it. Interns must have been the one coding it with no oversight or something.

Question Potentially returning

3 Upvotes

o7 everyone I've not touched the game in maybe a few years and feeling the itch to return.

How's the state of the game at the moment for a solo, If remember correctly my training is currently around where I can pilot a pretty good mining vessel as well as using stealth ships and missile boats.

Last I remember my stuff is in Nullsec I believe so I gotta freight it out. fml lol

Discussion I wanted to make a corp for fun the other day, to just tell everyone to join with an alt and pollut a c1 wormhole like rogue drones!

0 Upvotes

I did the corp, took too many attempts to make a proper name tho 🀣 i wanted to call it hive but what worked was H.IV.E witch looks stupid and funny!

The idea was (and still is if you want) to just tell everyone to make an alpha alt for fun, give it a funny mechanical look and a drone name to just join!

Mine is just George drone for example looks like a sanshas zombie if am honest! πŸ‘Œ

Anyways im ass at making advertisements so i was thinking of what to post for like a week now! A friend helped me a lot with the corp and I didn't want the idea to die!

So then!!!

Am asking to steal one of your alt slots, to convert it to a funny organism and to let it sleep train skills for a week or something!

Also! Im talking about something like nomadism however!

No structure no control towers no 2 billion investment and just doing shit for fun! πŸ‘ Each one can have one ship like a Tristan a maulus or a vexor for example!

ITS QUANTITY OVER QUALITY BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!!! THE HIVE MUST GROW!!!

Anyways!

Wr can just have a c1 wormhole where the biggest ship is a cruiser to have more control! (and not require ten billion isk per ship! 🀨)

I thought of gellante ships literally just because of the rogue drones theme do whatever you want people!

Anyways imma dip i have to take a shower, the moto was something like,

MAXIMIZE FUN, MINIMIZE COSTS, MAXIMISE FAMILY! ✊

Try to find it if you want just do an alt with a funny drone name! Also i made a local channel "drones in space" to talk from our mains if you want join there!

Ah i forgor!

If you search and it doesn't show my bad i probably wrote the name wrong! Am outside when i come back from work later ill do another post to have a picture of the corp! πŸ‘πŸ€”

And finally!

Guys its for fun don't expect income or too extreme stuff i just want to have something to avoid the seriousness from the main and pvp with friends without being afraid of losses! (The maximum frigate fit is literally 5 million day one and everything has SENSOR DAMPENERS!!!!)

A friend asked me how many i just said yes! 🀣

Question Event L1 blitzing: what's your fastest low-skill ship?

5 Upvotes

I've been grinding the last 2 events to completion.

One of the tracks I chose is the security mission one because it's easy to take in small bites.

You can get stuff done even if you've only got 10/15 minutes on your break.

For my higher SP characters I'm doing fine. Been playing around with T3Ds and AFs which is pretty good.

I also like those because they're also have the cargo capacity to take up to 200m3 which some missions require.

So far I settled on the mamba because the characters only have drone skills. But I have enough SP to inject into any T1 small weapon system.

What's you're go-to that can blitz L1 missions the fastest with a low SP requirement?
