Where do you think the t7 assault destroyers will settle in price once they start getting manufactured? I dumped all my free sp and training time so far in destroyers and small rails / drones because I am stubborn and I don't like how the vexor looks.

No one can make T7 anything yet, but based on other prices, ships in a tier regardless of class seem to stick around the same price. So I'm going with "Whatever a battleship battlecruiser costs".

edit: whoops BS are T8

Hopefully someone is recording the stream when they get popped.

I have suggested when it happens that someone use the twitch clip feature to get the landing to kill as a clip in their channel preserving it so he can wear it with pride. (or flip out and ban the person that made it from his channel which is also funny and will need to be clipped). we should have our own recording though because I think you can hide / delete clips as the streamer.

They are now HONK missions fleets, if something is censored we should use HONK in place of it, better if it's done with a sound board even on voice coms because that will be funny and not get old hearing goosesseseses honking all the time.

so is there an actual conglomeration of GOONss now?

i remember when there were 30-40 people loving around on discord in various fleets, now it's dead empty in the two discords i'm in unless there is a 10 man ratting fleet going on

is there any presence left or did the drama schism break the GOONs interest

There were a few rough starts, mostly with people thinking this was going to be run the exact same and have the exact same rules as goons do in EVE Online. Goose is going to be the good group I feel it.

Today, I am screwing around in high sec anomalies with a Burst. It's the fastest frigate that's pilotable right now, other than the Burst II, which costs too drat much for 7 extra m/s. I fit it with a MWD, an autocannon and a remote shield booster. My primary goal is to steal from pubbies running highsec scout+ sites. But I am also going to try to deny, or at least delay, the final kill to get into looting position. I am also hoping this will piss off anyone in one of my regular farming sites enough to go somewhere else if it proves effective against destroyers.

I've run into plenty of pubbies who don't even have an AB and are farming these, they get really pissed when you steal from them multiple times and end up with 100% of the loot other than the lovely MK3 stuff in wrecks they prioritize because it's closer and in their mind the loot is all theirs and anyone else is cheating / stealing / not playing by the rules. They are wrong, honk at them while taking what is yours. You are a goose, everything is belongs to you.

Just do your mining on bluestacks like all us cool kids. Then you can watch yer vids while you poop in peace.

Or use split view, in Android press the show open apps button (alt+tab equiv) tap the app icon of the app that is currently open and press "open in split screen view" you will now have half your screen that is that app the other half will be the alt tab. Select the app you want in the 2nd half of the screen. You can move the middle of the screen to change how much each app takes up of your screen. EVE doesn't love this but you can monitor your EVE account keep it active and then just slide to make the EVE app take up 100% of the screen basically returning you to full screen and closing your youtube video quickly if you need to bail because a neutral just warped into your anom or whatever. If you just need to switch rocks the UI should still be responsive enough even while squished to do that.

You must tab the app's icon not the app window on the alt tab for the first program to engage split screen, the second one you have to tab the window like you are selecting it. It's rather awkward and not intuitive at all.

Whenever I restore EE from a split-screen, the whole interface scales weird and I can't really do anything. I always have to restart it after.

If that happens just minimizing to the home menu and opening again usually fixes the UI and the game is still where you left it. Not good for PvP though! I get a messed up UI sometimes after opening chat but not actually chatting (like type something then the person leaves to I delete it then close) the UI buttons like chat and ship mods are at mid screen and my target list is off the screen making it a horrid mess.

I find it restores properly if I hold it in landscape and have them side by side it get's messy if they are on top and bottom. Where you split matters!

I mean I watched a popular streamer once, saw all those 10bux donations flashing, and had dreams of earning an incoming through live button mashing and hurfblurfing.

You mostly have to yell and get super into a game like beyond reason. You also need to play what is popular on a schedule to actually make money. You will also be expected to do the new "point" thing and most twitch streamers expect to be able to force you to do things like pushups on camera and will yell that you aren't giving them their money's worth if you don't go AFK and get killed to do the 3 pushups they just redeemed and are going to ask you to do another 5 the second you sit down.

Twitch becomes more toxic every day on large streams. I enjoy hanging out with streamers with 20-30 viewers though they tend to be chill and doing it for the money. It seems like soul crushing work, I've seen the mask slip on some big streamers before.

The Maller is so beautiful, so beautiful to me,
Whether killing salty pubies in space warfare or Dread Guristas in dedspace pve,
Some prefer the Gallente Vexor or the Caldari Caracal,
but for me, the Maller does the job no ands ifs whats or buts.
Missiles are the meta, and drones aren't far behind,
but nothing melts a shield tank, like EM pulse lasers from the Mallers cute behind
The Maller is a cruiser with a battleship sized tank
But don't let its toughness fool you, Mallers are also built to gank
Just drop in some heatsinks to melt somebody's face.
The Amarr made this cruiser perfection; it puts all others in their place

I was always told space poetry was the worst down right terrible and would make me want to end deafen my ears just to stop end the torment of the recital and that reading it was a hate crime in most galaxies.
