Hagop posted:OK, so I have the game, an account, and a character. I followed the tutorial around until it told me to find cosmic anomaly(which I don't know how to do), and buy a probe gun (which I don't seem to have the cash for). So, now what do I do? So, first off, sorry -- CCP is really terrible at tutorials  The initial tutorial tries to tell you about anomalies without actually needing a probe gun. If you bring up the probe scanner, you can click Analyze without launching probes, and it'll bring up some anomalies to warp to. Once you're done with the initial tutorial, you can jump into a player corp, or you can go on to do the Advanced Tutorials. There's six of them, one of which is exploration -- if you do that advanced exploration tutorial, you'll be given a probe launcher for that part of it.

ullerrm posted:Hey, while you're posting here -- holy poo poo dagronstalking, what is this T2 invuln, heavy neut poo poo? You could have PMed me and I'd have given you a pair of C-type invulns so you could at least tank one measly DD. Hell, my Phoenix could tank two pre-nerf DDs, much less the current nerfed garbage. I literally threw half the fit together (everything but the mids really) before I undocked and jumped and didn't have my invulns on because poo poo who expects getting awoxxed on a impulse POS bash? Also I was still up-in-the-air as to how this thing should actually end up looking. Anyways your fit is bad because  at spending that amount of dosh on a throwaway cap; you know that ancillary is like a bil on its own right? I'm rich but I'm not Xolve-rich.

Pigbottom posted:I considered joining several sig, but I wasn't exactly sure about either what they actualy did or if I was going to enjoy it. Also I was far away from having the skills to fly most of the stuff. Join any sig that even makes you go "huh, what's this?" Then you find out if you like it. Eve is a lot like that in general. Do poo poo that seems interesting, find out later if you were right. Also most communication now happens on jabber and mumble. If you are ever going "wtf" you can hop on theta mumble channel and ask there. You don't need to be in a sig for that.

To be fair though, Goonswarm Federation is another place for turbo newbs. They have different things to offer a newbie than we do. I prefer RVCMF, but we're not the only game in town. e: I shouldn't leave out Groon either. I don't know if they take newbies though?

CommonShore posted:I know. Our provi times is what gave me the idea. After my overhaul Topgoon would have consisted of a jabber channel with a "Staging is Nakah. Get in comms if you are running or looking for a fleet" type of MOTD and a forum with a bunch of stickies that essentially read "Here are basic skills for newbees. Don't be a bad." Everything else (except the shitposting thread) would have been deleted. I actually wish I could extract a couple of my fittings/how to fly this ship threads out of there. They were handy for people wanting to fit out those kinds of ships.

I've been playing in a few different corps under alts and such, and so far I've liked Goonfleet's culture the most- all of the problems that people are leaving for either don't apply to me or are things I've not encountered yet.

Rhymenoserous posted:God I hate protocloaks. I was fitting them instead of improved because for some reason I had it in my head that improved were like 7m and proto was 2m and the ships were pretty cheap. Turns out it's more like 2m and 3m
