Seriously, what's so different between alts applying to gsf or an altcorp

For starters: one requires button pushing from the corp recruitment team, the other requires button pushing from one of a handful of people in the entire alliance.

Applying to goonwaffe there's several people who can accept you. Applying the altcorp to the alliance there's maybe 3 people who can actually push button because of security reasons. Anyone who can accept corps to the alliance can also disband it. Typical wait time for altcorp is 5-10 days from payment to acceptance into the alliance or it was when I was applying mine.

Ok that's pretty clear now, didn't know that.

Yes altcorp. Seriously, what's so different between alts applying to gsf or an altcorp, especially if it was already in gsf, has been kicked for inactivity, no unpaid taxes or any other issues, and nothing changed in the meantime?

You can give almost anyone roles to accept alts and the worst thing they can do with it is allow in an awoxer. The role to accept altcorps (full director in the holding corp) carries with it the ability to disband the alliance.

I don't know if anyone still cares, but if you played Dust 514 back in the day you'll have been sent an update to your PSN linked email advising that you can reserve your Dust 514 main character name and get some bonus veteran items for that character in Project Nova. That these emails have been sent out indicates we're getting close to actually seeing something of Project Nova.

Speaking of Walking In Stations, did they ever compensate all those people who bought fancy clothes for their avatars?

Edit - Sorry, sorry, I already know the answer to that question...

You can still dress your character up in the clothes and take a picture which other plays can see. If they squint hard. And haven't disabled portraits in their UI.

So of course not.

The one single time I was hit hit with an orbital bombardment from an EVE pilot was pretty loving cool I guess.

Who or what in EvE is Bombers Bar ? After watching one EvE related video my YouTube suggested section is now full of their videos, most of which are them ganking CONDI Rorquals & going "lol goons". There was one where they nuked a guard Nagalfar and then the Rorqual. The only thing I learned from the video is that you apparently don't want to be within 30-odd km of a Nag or you will get spanked hard (they used a Mortal Kombat Scorpion GET OVER HERE thing to illustrate this).

They are a COMPLETELY NEUTRAL group that do bomber drops on people. In Delve or nearby lowsec. And never in somewhere even easier to drop on, say Deklein. FCed by COMPLETELY NEUTRAL people who are in other groups besides the Imperium. Did I mention how neutral they were?

iirc they are a "not purple shoot it" group (means they shoot people not in their fleet, aka everyone) that theoretically is apolitical but in practical terms focuses on us

In the beginning...the universe was created. his has been widely regarded as a bad move and has made a lot of people very angry.
Bomber's Bar mostly rolls their null WH, sends hunters out for a few jumps, if they find nothing, in a few minutes, they return and roll again.

eve is probably the most dead it's been since 2012

highsec freighter traffic is much lower, the prevalence of highsec miners is almost null (outside of mass afk/botting orcas) and mission hubs are completely empty.

nullsec kills are also down a lot too

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

So of course not.

You can also click on someones picture to let the game render a full body version of their avatar. Just in case you want to know what their shoes look like.

Also hell yes, of course I want my dumb Dust-name back! (I also got the email)

this is obviously because eve is dying and not because you only ever look in highsec

let's ignore the massive vacuum action that is delve on highsec

I think CCP had this "grand vision" back in the day, where they would integrate three different genres of game into one shared universe. Their VR fighter-craft game, the ground based Dust, and EVE online space ships. You can see what they were thinking of in this old trailer:

It would be really cool if Pearl Abyss made this a reality. I would love for my fighters to be piloted by real people doing a dog fighting game :v:

yeah i'd play the poo poo out of a game that was as big as eve but also had dogfights. doing some instancing magic instead of "everyone is on the same grid", it might even be possible to have it work passably enough that i'd not care about it.

unfortunately elite decided it'll be a single player mmo, and star citizen will never exist so :rip:
