Dark nightsky posted:Lets all drink the coolaid and crush those loving badgers! Glory to the Emporium! This post looks like someone tried drunk posting in E/N and accidentally selected the wrong forum Magic Rabbit Hat posted:It is mindblowing to me that the Megathron is capable of fitting a full rack of 425mms and a decent tank while the Minmatar and Amarr ships struggle to fit T2 1400mms and Tachs. To be fair, the mega beam lasers with their three muzzles spitting out energy death rays look helluva sweet, so I don't mind this so much. The Minmatar are properly hosed, though.

Biggest hurdle for new people is having to wait while you train requirements for stuff. It's also only about 1/5th of the SP you earn per day anyway, so not that much of a boost. As long as you aren't suffering from OCD so hard you need medical help, you can safely ignore it if you don't have the time to log in. And it's nice for newbies, always a plus.

Zephyrine posted:The RnK pipe bomb was a bit redundant as no one outside of Eve and most people in Eve will have no idea what is happening. The ships aren't even exploding, just vanishing. Yeah, even though I probably sound terribly ignorant by asking this, but what was up with that? I know ship explosions in EVE are basically just like Roman candles fizzling out in space, but just vanishing? Did the guy who made the recording use the wrong graphics settings?

VideoGames posted:Well that was absolutely awesome fun. I went on a jaunt through space to find a Venture for 277,000 isks and then got safely home after watching the stars fly by. I was only supposed to play for twenty minutes and ended up play for an hour and forty! If you still have fun mining in a Venture, consider skilling into a expedition frigate later. There are two, the Prospect (can warp cloaked) and the Endurance (can mine ice, can only use normal cloaks, but can move fast while cloaked). Or if you want to try the larger mining ships, try the Procurer: It's like a combination of mining ship and small combat drone carrier. Since it's a really hard to kill ship, you could easily outfit it as a combat ship if you want to try something besides mining.

scandoslav posted:What's the closest historical naval warfare analogy to the Goons vs. Nongoons supercap situation? I need a way to contextualize this. The German High Seas Fleet and the British Fleet in WWI. Non-Goons are roleplaying as the smug British blockading the goons hiding in their ports, while secretly they have to hold back most of their fleet in case the goons ever try to break out with their fleet, since it's massive enough to threaten them otherwise. Jutland doesn't really work in this analogy since the goons won BR-5 and inflicted more losses. The Germans lost strategically while sinking battlecruisers left and right.

Man, your antics motivated me to take some random cloaky ship and go explore some weird stuff, like I always plan to but always keep putting off. Of course I got blown up by a fleet of Drifter and Sleeper-ships taking affront by me exploring their weird hidden wormhole-structures. But I got this close to finding out what was hidden in that Nexus in Vedette! Next time I'll remember to not decloak myself when running through that debris field. (Also gently caress me, I forgot to take screenshots.) Edit: Looking at my lossmail, two Drifter-battleships one-shotted me with their Lux Kontors while a salvo of Praedormitan-missiles fired by unknown ships didn't reach me in time.

There's also the new Dust for PC: Project Nova. The bastards at Fanfest can actually play a demo right now, those fuckers. I wish I had the money and time for trips to Iceland. Other tidbits: February was apparently the most profitable month in the history of EVE for CCP. Also CCP raised 30m $ in Venture Capital so they can develop all that VR-Crap without sucking money from their other projects.

CCP wants to begin buy-back of obsolete POS-structures around Fanfest 2017, arround then most, if not all features of the old POS will have been replaced by the new arrays.

evilweasel posted:"winter, probably" at fanfest always means "maybe before next fanfest but don't bet on it" Winter was speculation by, they literally said the industry arrays are coming in Fall, the others at some unspecified time behind that. I mean they said they want to being buy-back next year, so they seem pretty serious about this. Vehement: New Serpentis Dreadnought Vanquisher: New Serpentis Titan More are coming by other pirate factions.

Or how balanced the TMC-viewpoint is. Since I ignore all those boring articles about players shooting each other and all that.
