Tactical Lesbian posted:so what's going on right now in eve? just resubbed. last events I remember playing were delve/fountain Delve/Fountain is a thing again, but a bit different. New sovereignty mechanics coming soon that will completely change the way sov works -- jury's still out on if this will be an improvement or not, but I'm optimistic.

It's like he's wearing nothing at all. Only away a year and poo poo looks really different. I have to figure out the jump clone / med bay changes and the cyno jump changes. (Though I may only re-sub one account; my main doesn't have capitals trained). Moral_Hazard fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Apr 13, 2015 |

I'm still trying to fully figure out the clones changes myself, mostly the home station settings.

You can set your medical clone to whatever station you are in (with cloning services) at all times. You can set your medical clone to your corporations designated "capital" once per year. (good for newbees) and lastly you can set you medclone to your highsec starting station at anytime.

You can, once a year, remotely set your home station. Not sure jump clones have changed at all though. So I basically keep poo poo in three or four places, have jump clones in three of them and am present in the 4th, and med clone set to where ever I currently am. When poo poo happens, say in the current war, I will jump into my clone in 4-e, then set med clone there, and enjoy the

What's a drifter? Apart from the underemployed cherished hobo of the rails...

MoraleHazard posted:What's a drifter? Apart from the underemployed cherished hobo of the rails... Some new fluff thingie. They're basically setting them up to be like... Evil Jove. From what I understand. I could be completely talking out of my rear end here since I'm not as well-versed in the fluff as ullerrm, but I believe the reason the Jove kinda went silent over the last fifteen or whatever years of gametime is that they've had this weird internecine conflict going on in their space between Normal Jove and Drifters. At some point in the recent past (like... yearish?), the Drifters have asserted their dominance in that conflict. Now they show up after capsuleers die to take the freefloating corpses left behind. They aren't aggressive toward capsuleers against you are aggressive toward them. They're also a bitch and a half to kill. But I'm sure ullerrm would have a much better effortpost on the background there. I'll admit I kinda like EVE backstory, as pubbie as that sounds, and would like a clearer idea of it too since it's new to me as a resubscriber also. Edit: watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3060a8NkOk tbh I kinda like the whole mythos around Caroline's Star. I think CCP did a decent job of putting that in there as a hook to actually get people interested in the lore in a subtle way, encouraging speculation and theorycrafting of the story. The whole "Jovian stargates have gone offline" thing sounds like bullshit though, since I always thought Jovian space was impenetrable to everyone except CCP devs anyway.

Drone posted:Some new fluff thingie. They're basically setting them up to be like... Evil Jove. From what I understand. Jove-space was impenetrable, yes. But all gates are still linked to each other, as I understand it. That works the same way of how all the gates to the drone-regions were already there before CCP added those regions into the game. They were just locked to us. Edit: Also going with the old region-descriptions, there's some hideous thing hiding in The Spire.

It's still loving amazing that as N3 disintegrates, Nulli is actually evacuating to a system called 3-BADZ. I mean, just, uh, wow.

Drone posted:Some new fluff thingie. They're basically setting them up to be like... Evil Jove. From what I understand. Huh. Okay. There was this Jove Observation Post or something in S-D in Dek, and I was scratching my head thinking, "I don't remember this being here before." and it looks like the giant structure in the video link. I confess to liking the EVE backstory a bit as well, though I've always found it a bit too dark. I'm not sure what Caroline's Star is, going to have to look that up. One of the things I've always thought EVE has done well is the nebulae and stars and whatnot are beautiful in this game; probably the best I've seen. I also see the graphics on many of the ships have been upgraded. I was thinking about exploring for awhile until I get my bearings a bit better or decide to start some or all my accounts up again. What's the best ship for exploring these days?

MoraleHazard posted:What's a drifter? Apart from the underemployed cherished hobo of the rails... Strictly speaking, Drifters are a new type of rat that was added to the game a couple of patches ago, shortly after the Circadian Seekers were added. They can be seen shooting the Jove Observatories or near the Sleepers' stabilized wormholes, and they'll show up to gently caress with you if you shoot them. Fighting Drifters is not advised unless you're in a heavily tanked capital or a supercap, or if you have a fleet capable of alpha-striking them. Not only do they do a fairly hefty amount of damage on their own, but they have a DD, the Lux Kontos, that can target subcaps -- and they will use it, repeatedly, once you get them into armor. -- What the Drifters actually are, lore-wise, is unclear. The leading theory at the moment, which seems to be backed up by recent CCP videos, is that they're a branch of the Sleepers who are extremely pissed off at everyone for harvesting Sleeper technology to create T3s and clone soldiers, and are using the corpses of capsuleers to create bodies to crew their ships. e: CommonShore posted:Has NCdotte actually failscaded and imploded today? Who the gently caress are we going to shoot now? xXxLeGiOnOfDeAtHxXx? NCDOT isn't imploding, but the N3 coalition is basically ceasing to exist. A lot of resets are happening. e2: nosl posted:It's only a few days until I can apply to join GoonWaffe, I was wondering if I should PM vyst right now with something to make it easier so when the full 3 months is over it's easier to process and admit me, or if there is some other procedure that is preferable.
