I went out and picked up Templar One, which I'm about to start reading presently. I started a 14 day trial just to see what all this EVE hype was about. I'm not a PC gamer per se, so I went and looked up the system requirements. Turns out my lil ol' Mac Book Unibody is sufficient to run it. So, I'm currently downloading the client. CCP, you have made a fanboy out of me! I guess, with my love for RPG gaming, it wasn't that difficult to reel me in though! Next step, begin working on the neckbeard  So, does anybody have any pointers for an EVE noob? Let the trolling begin! 
Oh holy f*ckin' sh*t about the pointers! There are a ton of pointers for EVE. You'll have to take it slow and learn as you go like a fine wine.
EVE is NOT a simple FPS. It is rich in features and environment and you must treat it like a chess game, not checkers.
Hence the reason I dropped the game and when I do periodically visit I mainly do ore and module trading via the market and a freighter.
Whereas DUST is more of a Guns 'N' Roses, EVE is a Marvin Gay song. |

Something is telling me this would be a very hard earned lesson!
Lol, let the scams begin. In the meantime I have a contract you can fulfill with a freighter way out in null sec. Also, I have a few contracts in Jita to fill when you get there. Lol. |

Stuff in EVE would send these little pansies in DUST running home to mama. You think redline sniping is bad or unfair? |

You have absolutely got to join Red vs. Blue for instant cruiser and below gang pvp. These guys are split into two corps for cosentual pvp. It's fun and instant. |

He ought to be in a good ship that can do something by then. I'm 5 months in and it can be really addictively fun when you get fleet ops going, a bit heart pounding when you get hot dropped, and oh so satisfying when you make a kill. Lol you guys. Unless he has great teachers and true vets really pointing him in the right direction for EVERYHING, 5 months ain't gonna make him jack **** in the eve universe and you know that's true. Even if by some miracle he does everything right , there are many systems to learn and master. In eve skills mean a lot more than they do in DUST. However good luck spacemarine guy, dont be put off by early setbacks and ALWAYS only run what you can afford to lose. EDIT - After thinking about this more, assuming he gets in with a good crowd and gets taught the tight knit ways of semi decent or better pvpers then yea he might make a few tears. Yup I happen to have a good crowd and in PC the majority of combat at the moment Minmatar vs Amarr is being done sub Cruiser, all modules for which I have to tech 2, which makes me competitive enough to fight in fleets and solo. You can do a lot in 5 months, not enough to make you some godly player but enough that will make you passable enough to enter corporations.
Is PC FW doing anything in EVE? Last I was playing FW was a red headed step child of craptacular proportions.
