I have no clue what ship to buy next. I will look up the names provided and see if any look like fun.

Every single ship in my hangar will have a stone based name. I'm thinking of calling my Badger slab or granite :)

:kimchi:

Someone needs to bring an Orca into RVCMF, and should probably name it Quarry. Makes me want to resub my Market/Industry/Hauler/Refiner alt, if all my ISK wasn't on my main. Also jesus christ inflation, Orcas are 715+m now, I got mine back when it was 320m and sold it to someone in gsf when it was probably 500some.

Oh, the network slogan is true -- "watch FOX and be damned for all eternity!"

On a positive note, I managed to find a unicorn today in the ship skin collection -- got one of the Guristas Scorpion skins for a hair under 10B. (They weren't meant to be released, but were accidentally bundled in with some PLEX offer; there's less than 20 of them in the game at the moment.) That leaves pretty much two hyper-expensive rare skin on my list: the Umbral Nyx, and the Palatine Capsule.

Everything else is gettable through the NEX store if I want to get it. (I'm putting off completing my collection for now because some of the skins are stupidly ugly and not worth giving CCP money, especially when it comes to the Tronhadar Ink skins.)

I really want to get into ship skins but they are too expensive, everytime I consider buying one I think about all the ships I could buy and lose instead!

They gave us these lovely skins for way too much money.

But then they put loving awesome skins on the chinese server, which can't be had for any amount of money on our servers. It's just silly.

What is the reasoning behind not releasing these skins on Tranquility?

That's interesting, I would have thought both versions were the same. Suck for us as those Chinese ones look quite nice. Not that I'd buy them either way...

Is it too much to ask that skins for the same base hull apply to all variants? Like I've got the Raata on an basi but now I need to buy a separate one for an osprey as well?

That makes logical sense, but removes your temptation to purchase an additional skin.

EVE is the only MMO I've played and I had a lot of fun thanks to goonfleet but I remember exactly why I've never come back. The waiting man. Even if you are solo ganking and wait for no man, it's just commuting to the most populated neutral system, scanning the belts and realizing everyone is docked except for some random raven parked inside a POS, and then wandering around the lesser systems for 2 hours and getting maybe 4 fights in that time.

Saw the SOS ad. Fun catching up on recent events as described in the last thread but I couldn't finish reading because my eyes glossed over by the time I reached "This is unusual because of fozziesov; supercapitals cannot meaningfully contest command nodes due to their cycle time penalty and their inability to meaningfully interdict typical entosis link ships." :confuoot: I was one of the first 100 goonfleet dudes and I guess not many of us stuck around for 1-2 years without characteristically going gently caress goons at some point therein, but I have only fond memories with you/those guys. Did Sesfan ever come back?

I have always felt the big grand battles are the reason why eve still exists, small gang/ alliance skirmishes dont really have the same draw as vast battles involving thousands. Never did understand why ccp tries to tune down the thing that keeps eve in the news.

IIRC they stated the retention rate on those who joined after the big battles was atrocious. Small gang is addicting fun on the other hand. Why would someone want to participate often in tidi lagfests?

Head of Section 8, he also wrote an article on TMDC about how TMDC is killing goonswarm, we aren't real goons anymore, and ironic racism is okay as long as it's goons doing it.
