The *Official* Eve Online Thread

That was a great learning experience if nothing else, even if it was just complete chaos, couldnt get back through the jita gate because about 50 people sat on it and ganked the crap out of anything going near it! Lost about 5 Apocs :p
 
I got the deathblow on steve! :D


I was suprised at our performance, thanks to Vader's scorpion we managed to get around 10 kills at an overall loss of 4 ships due to gatecamping by Kinsy and other camps at Jita. :p

It makes life in OcUK corp look very sad and boring somtimes. Seeing the control tower go up was my favourite part of the night and that is nce and industrial. :)

What happened to the Domi? :p :cool:


But I really enjoyed tonight, going form system to system with a fleet battle in each was brilliant. Jumping 60 people all at one time with insta load and no emergency warps is what EvE needed. Hopefully when they get it optimized even more 100 man per side, even more hopefully will be a reality again.
 
Stupid time to move and lose interweb :(

Sounds like you guys had fun though, and I shall be back very soon (cue full nights of playing eve and sleeping whilst at work for a while :p)
 
So what are good weapons for a Bantam ship?

I'm Caldari so I have a decent Hybrid Turret skill (4 iirc) and just bought Small Energy Turret to train up so that I don't have to worry about ammo. I have bought a 120mm railgun and some ion cannon as each enemy I faced seemed to react differently to each weapon, so I'm guessing damage type is very important in the game?

Because I kept trying to find out the best ammo to use in one mission I lost out on 30K because I missed the bonus deadline by three minutes. :o
 
Wow what was fun.

We sat at a gate 2 jumps out of jita and ganked everything that came thru.

In one hour we got over 100 bs kills.

Then we went to Josamento, got a dread and killed everyone that undocked.

If only TQ was all 0.0 again too.

Bantam bluntly is a terrible ship, try and replace it with a Condor, Merlin or Kestral asap. :p

As to damage type Guristas pirates die pretty quick using Kinetic damage.

Also notice your ship gives a bonus if it is using the correct guns.

I.e -

Caldari & Gallente - Hybrid

Minmatar - Projectiles

Amaar - Energy

You will suffer a fair penalty in your bantam for the lack of a hybrid weapon in place of a energy one.
 
Thanks for that. I'm training up on level 3 Caldari Frigate skill so should be completed sometime tonight, then I'll think about a replacement for the Bantam. I might do some mining/trading for extra cash, made my first profit run last night with a "massive" 3K ISK. Got about 400,000 so hopefully it'll be enough for a decent replacement and parts.

Ahhh .. so you were some of the ones responsible for the lag at Josamento. Reports from other alliance members were that it was taking several minutes to load all the content outside the Josamento stations due to the sheer number of cans out there. SBs would have cleared it all up but of course being less than 5km from a station meant no joy.

I had no problem undocking. And yeah, there were several hundred cans there after a couple of hours.
 
Alright guys, I'm thinking of starting to play eve, just a couple questions.
Is it worth it to start at this point?
Is it better to download the client and do the pay online thing or buy it from the shop?
What do I do when I start?
and finally, is there anymore of that 14day trial stuff or anything like that going on anymore?
