Exploration is amazing money if you get lucky, just find a wormhole into some backwater 0.0 shitshow and go hack some cans, odds are in a couple of hours you'll have like 50mil

I believer the standard issue r/eve response is to say that chatlogs which make your side look bad are always faked and/or taken out of context.

Hello thread! That was a heck of a lot of posts to catch up on.

I'm glad so many are enjoying my newbie adventures into space mining. If anything else weird happens to me tonight when I make a start with my little venture I'll let you know. So far the sheer chillness of just puttering about space and zapping some asteroids is enticing me to play on past my trial.

I also wouldn't mind just randomly exploring systems too! It's got to be neat just whiling away time in space.

Exploration sites (Data & Relic) are actually really profitable for new players.

CTRL + F9 will make all of your UI temporarily go away in case you want to take any pretty screenshots of your new adventures in space. Print Screen key is the actual screenshot button, and then the screenshots get saved in your Documents\EVE Online\captures\screenshots folder.

But yes, do keep posting about your :shobon: newbie adventures. Stories like those always take me back.

I don't know how people can take screenshots of videogames without ShareX (it even directly uploads to imgur).

Ehhh, yes and no. You can sort by 'Controversial' to see heavily downvoted things, or 'New' to see everything new, etc.

Reddit has a number of things that make it a 'not great' thing, but the UI isn't bad once you've become acquainted with it.

who was nice dude offered to give advice to running level 5 missions? I don't know how to rewind or search for it in this thread :bad:
I got a few questions:

1. how many puller alts do you optimistically need? for 1 hour of continuously running.
2. I assume all empire faction corps are equal regarding isk/hour?
3. agents give out missions in a constellation, how risky is it taking gates with my carrier?
4. lastly, do i need to be blue with the local residing corp to realistically run any of the missions?

thanks

VideoGames - the game does a terrible job of pointing this out with the new ~opportunities map~ thing, but if you press F12 there will be an option to show career agents - it's a set of 5 tutorial mission chains that do an ok job explaining some of the things you can do in the game.

I don't actually see many GEWNS tags in comms, or at least ones that talk. Maybe we're just keeping our lovely opinions to ourselves?

Other corporations within GSF love to talk though and make terrible opinions known to all.

The core corp that formed Pandemic Legion originally, [ISRAD], was GoonFleet's old BlackOps Squad. They decided that GoonSwarm wasn't cool, and got in a dick measuring contest with Darius JOHNSON, who didn't like them anyways apparently, and then left, and formed PL.

I've left a lot of poo poo out, but if you've ever been another Goon MMO Guild, it was a lot of that same style drama before a guild splinters.

god, that's like 10 years ago, how long is that grudge gonna hold? are there even any goon left in israd?

1. I would say around 3. The odds of getting a doable mission are around 40%. This doesn't at all guarantee you could go on for an hour every time.
2. You cash out as implants so yes. That's about 700 isk/lp. I guess if you have caldari navy you could go hog wild in jita itself. I've cashed out as ammo for increased isk/lp a few times though that takes more effort as well.
3. You will die. You need a carrier in a station with a suitable undock in every system you intend to run missions in.
4. No, as long as you don't live next door to snuffbox or shadow cartel. You also don't want to do them in B tier groups' home system. I usually don't bother if local is over 10 because odds are one of the chucklefucks will drop probes.
