Got you beat. The wyvern I'm trying to lose was built by Niart Epar (pre-fuckgoons, obv) in Delve the first time we owned it, with large rigs. It's vintage!

Somebody mentioned burning phorde space recently and it occurred to me: what does it say about the state of 0.0 that somebody can leave their space empire for 9+ months and nobody will even bother to take it?

Or are they bluetral to everyone over there?

its fun to stack paper and have people to go drop on instead of everyone being clustered in either 1dq or t5z

Our enemy are some of the most risk-averse bitchmade beings that have ever spun in a ship within Eve's confines. I don't do horse betting, but I'm willing to put a lot on a horse saying that they will never seriously push 1DQ because regardless of the sovereignty outcome, it would cost them hundreds of caps and thousands of subcaps - a bill they were never planning to foot when they initiated this war.

I installed this game because of ads on Facebook told me there would be solo PvE available. Abyssal poo poo was fun when I started but expensive. I joined Waffe a month after the war of 2018 started and was then in constant FOMO watching other people have and do things and in general was an entitled cockface. The war ended and the ability to scale PvE through a somewhat large multiboxing ice mining setup that could pretty much earn 600m an hour with impunity spoiled me on lower income activities. I quit PvE 12/1/19 extracting my rorq skills for a titan alt.



I sold my titans to the alliance for war bonds, so the 156 of those aren't involved in that estimate. Game is broken and the industry changes being able to stem the tide of making dumb poo poo like my net worth possible in less than three years of playing the game is good for the game.

The point is, when there isn't a war like what is happening now going on we have the ability to just earn isk in unreasonable amounts and it can be boring if you only like the conflict aspect. Gatecamps still happen, GEF deployments will be coming Im sure and there are several sigs that have remote deployments youll be able to get in on for PvP.

Laopooh: I did the same thing and I can absolutely tell you this game is better with friends. Nebulae are neat, definitely do some sightseeing but also get a group that can meet your social needs, or youll burn out quickly.

your starting empire doesn't really matter, it just sort of effects your first half a million skillpoints and where your school station is.

as a note you really should use a referral link to sign up for the first time because it gives you a free million extra skillpoints, which is a lot.

It is mostly like W6V if you go on deployment, but with the added benefit of being able to go do pee vee rock and just shooting people to shoot them (i.e. no ihub timers).

I think it also affects the color of the UI, which is the only thing that will affect your game experience after more than a couple of weeks in.

You can change that in the options somewhere. I liked to put a different color scheme for each account I was multiboxing, so it was easier for me to tell apart windows.

yeah it just effects the default UI color scheme, but you can change it to whatever you want whenever. You can even set it to change the scheme depending on the type of ship you are in.

There's a setting where it just syncs up the client UI colour to the colour for the race of the ship you're flying. I like it :v:

Hell yeah, large rigged super buddy! I will be very sad if mine survives a 1DQ fight. (Unfortunately, it probably will, since it’s an Aeon.)
