The *Official* Eve Online Thread

Lol got ganked in 0.4 outside a space station :D Undocked and saw a -9.5 guy undock behind me a few seconds later. He locked me up and I thought I'd just dock. It said "Docking request accepted" and just sat there.... Then he started shooting me and it still sat there. Then I died!

Next time I'll just warp away instead of relying on the game to work properly haha. Saw the same guy gank someone else the other day so think he just waits in 0.4 stations for people to undock then undocks behind them. I'm going back with a good ship next time and waiting for him to come online and bait him out :)

What were you both in?

No major loss my end. He was in a field recon ship and I was in a Heron! Didnt think he'd bother. More annoyed as I had it kitted out with probes and other kit so have to go and buy it all again.

Was suprised he could tank the sentries in a field recon ship but I've been out of the loop for a long time and hve just started again.

Either -

a) you was out of range...sometimes when you undock you leave pretty quickly and depending on the type of station you can find yourself out of the undock range, depends station to station. Eg I was camped in by 10+ war targets a few days ago, I undocked and I could fly away from the station fo about 5/6km and still was at 0 from the station :D So annoyed them undocking then redocking etc over and over lol.

or b) you got the **** dock bug, sometimes you have to do it twice, first time it'll say docking request accepted and you'll sit there, once you hit it again you it says it again and you dock up. Supposed to have been fixed years ago :rolleyes:

However, seen as you was a heron which is a caldari frigate....warping off shouldn't have been a problem if your quick enough...will take him a few seconds to lock you unless he has a sensor booster fitted, which I doubt as he's in 0.4 and has to tank the sentries.

Yeah it was B. I should have clicked again as I've had it a few times where it doesn't dock first attempt. Said the request was accepted as I was in range. No loss apart from pride lol. Have seen him a few times in the same system so it's time to get a few Blackbirds and peck him to death with some EW goodness!
 
Talking of crap bugs, since the resent patch I've been getting the 'You have to be closer than 2500 metres to do this' like when looting cans or EVEN trying to jump through a gate....I'm sat at almost 0 in both cases had this happen about 4 times in last few days :mad:

Also had the chat auto scroll...drag the chat scroll bar to the bottom and its scrolls upwards on its own. :confused: Sooooo annoying.

It's mainly going to be used to do missions, ratting in 0.0 and protecting my alt mining in 0.0

I need to change a few of the compentents to faction ones (the normal invun field etc) but i need more ISK first :(

You can buy the 60 day passes for $35 from the states. Works out well with the exchange rate! Better than 35 euros for a 60 day pass anyway.

If you want a 30 day plex in exchange for ISK let me know as I'm selling one at the moment in Amarr territory if you're down that way.

Where should I buy the passes from for $35?
 
I've got 2 free 5 day accesses for my accounts, however, i left eve because I was bored.

that was a year ago.

Done hisec mission running, mining, pirating, little bit of lowsec but nothing major.

Anyone any suggestions for what I can do in my 5 days that might rekindle the spark?
 
Maybe give faction warefare a shot? its not everyones cup of tea but you never know unless you try it. Or how about trying to come up with an original scam thats somthing Ive not see anyone do in eve for quite some time :)

I've been playing eve since 2003 so if anyone needs advice or anything feel free to contact in game charater name is "Vincent II".
 
well ive been playing on and off since 2004 I think.

2 accounts, 25 million SP on one character i think, would be double that IF i had played constantly. I just got bored with it.
 
I'm stuck in 0.0 with my one and only ship, trying to grind my sec status up to a level I can re-enter high sec, so -1.99 (incase I need to go into a 1.0)

I'm not sure what I'll do after that though, probably join a 0.0 corp and fly cheap ships for a while :)
 
Very much back into EVE again now, just sold a GTC for 700 mill.. I has moneys now.

Just got 30 days untill i can get that Deimos..

I've used shatteredcrystal for mine. There's an official list on eves website which lists vendors. Shatteredcrystal is one of them!

Excellent, thanks :)

Edit: Which ship would be best for mining?
Right now I have a Destroyer with 4 Miner I's on, which should be my next ship for mining?

Well, the Hulk was supposed to be the ultimate miner with T2 strip miners and crystals, however I had heard that a Myrm with T2 mining lasers and a few mods could do just as well, if not better!
