I really love DUST 514. It is honestly a great game, even with its few bugs and what not. I have been getting more and more intrigued by New Eden in general. 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!

When you get to him, his name starts with a D get some help, hopefully someone in a BC will just wtf pwn him for you but 2 frigs can easily take him down (his dps is **** but his tank is damn near unbreakable for a new char)

Join EvE university, it takes a few days for the application to go through so fill it out immediatly. That and do ALL THE INTRO MISSIONS, they give you good money and teach you about the basics of the game, do not skip any of them. When you are doing the sisters of eve quests there is one guy who is an absolute *****. When you get to him, his name starts with a D get some help, hopefully someone in a BC will just wtf pwn him for you but 2 frigs can easily take him down (his dps is **** but his tank is damn near unbreakable for a new char)

I would try it, but I'm afraid I'll get addicted like I did to Dust D:

And plus I don't know if my MacBook Air can handle it...

The certification system should help you a bit with your skill training by leading you along the right path in terms of skill training. Definitely check out those certificates and shoot for some that you find interesting.

Also, SgtDoughnut makes good suggestions - Do the tutorials, join EVE University, and bring friends to down Dagan when you come to that point in the Sisters of Eve arc.

Also, avoid venturing into lowsec for now, unless you have a death fetish. You can also hit me up in-game if you want if you have any questions, particularly on the industrial side (TheAmazingFlyingPig, same name as on here, just with no spaces). I'm AFK most of the time though, so don't expect a quick reply :3

Fly safe o7

Yeah This^^ and if your corp is part of a notable alliance stick with them(I guess it only counts for people in alliances like Top Men, Test Alliance Please Ignore, PIE's alliance, or any other alliance that has dust side people.)

Just curious, about how long would you say the INTRO MISSIONS take to complete? I want to be able to get to some mining or something to make some easy ISK right away so I can buy some PLEX.

Join EVE Uni - Learn the game... You have to learn from players that is the sand box.

Southern Cross Corp for PVP training/null pirates

You may consider joining Brave Newbies Inc. too. Their teaching methods are more... Hands on. Those crazy bastards know how to have fun and they are pretty friendly too, they can show you the ropes. Good luck, fly safe and drop us some orbitals in FW will you? :D

I really love DUST 514. It is honestly a great game, even with its few bugs and what not. I have been getting more and more intrigued by New Eden in general. I went out and picked up Templar One, which I'm about to start reading presently.

I'm also thinking of Naming my Character something more based in Lore, more Matari...

I wonder if CCP would allow me a name change for this reason in DUST as well...

Pointer , dont be Minmatar....

As others said you can go no wrong going to Eve Uni. Once you earn a bit of isk and want to take on meaner targets (other players) I then recommend Agony Unleashed classes. Do not be afraid to die early and die often for the sake of learning lessons.

Also if you love New Eden Lore I will forwarn the following link will probably suck you in.

Cyberntics V early as possible then either secure a loan or buy and sell time cards/plex and get a set of +5% implants. Will be a boring period that you will be tempted to skill elsewhere but long term its well worth it. Actually with the accelerated learning to start it's probably not that long anymore.

Dude where you set up. I have a lesson that was passed on to me by my mentor, that I feel I should pass on to you.

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.

Hes just gonna blow you up, the lesson has been spouted on these forums hundreds of times, and E-uni will pound it into your head, don't use what you cant afford to lose.

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

I can give it to you in game, or hmu on facebook!

You can still join the mining op if you want to. We'll give you a Venture and the skillbooks to use it :3

join the condor bar. ask low genius to teach you how to fly. or eatsbabies if he's in there. also dd. and unit 340.

it's just a chatroom. no commitments.

Dust 514 got me into EVE, and this was a year before the Dust closed beta even started...

me too :)

Just so you know, as buddy offers go this is a pretty terrible one.
The PLEX that you get normally goes for upwards of 500 mil, and traditionally at least 20% of this goes to the new player - IE, at least 100 mil.

Also, take your time finding a corp. Think about what you want to do a bit before joining one - the exception possibly being new player corps like EVE University - as joining the right group of people is quite important. You probably know this from Dust.

oh yer totally forgot about the plex reward, i guess im paying for ur first month after ur trial runs out aswell

https://secure.eveonline.com/trial/?invc=cf203696-4d5d-455f-9021-04077a116b87&action=buddy

there's a link for a 21 day trial if anyone else wants in, we'll work something out individually for the plex rewards.
the 30 mil is wat my corp pays for a recruit, meaning if u want to be a full time recruiter you can make a pretty sweet living
but thats not my thing, i just wana help some new players have some fun.

we are NEXUS FLEET, we own space, we pwn face, we replace your pvp ships, and help u earn mega isk, but most importantly we talk you down of the ledge and have friendly guidance counsellors to talk you through your greiving period following your first big loss.

see yall soon :)

Still downloading the client, my download was interrupted a few times.

so your reading templar one, hmmm.

***SPOILER ALERT***
the empress...

and thats all i know.

lol Omen?

OMFG IKR!!!!!
"empress" as if her will is her own...

not to mention she is a druggy

and quite promiscuous...

and she doesn't even believe in the Amarr faith or god...

but these idiot Amarr follow her blindly

I'd rather wallow in **** and ****!

SHE DOES BELIEVE IN GOD!!!

AND SHE IS THEIR EMPRESS!!!

i understand the other stuff and what not. The drugs, the sex addiction, the split personality and the spiral into insanity is all cool with me. But if your tryng to convert others into your holy empire and don't believe in god yourself then that sems to be a problem. Why haven't the amar replaced her again?

Probably because she in incredibly charismatic.

Personally I am sworn to House Sarum, I could not turn against her if I wanted to.

SHE DOES BELIEVE IN GOD!!!

AND SHE IS THEIR EMPRESS!!!

She actually plainly stated that she doesn't believe in god, or the faith to her mother.

She is genetically engineered from her Amarr Ancestors, and artificially inseminated into her mother.

She is under the mind control drugs administered by Falek Grange. She is completely under his control.

Grange engineered her DNA, plotted to hide her from the True Amarr Heirs, until he could elevate her to Empress, then just before he did, he gave her the slaver drug.

She is Empress in name only...

"I was a slave and I like Freedom" (Minmatar)

More like:

I was a slave, but when I saw weakness in those who held dominion over me, I revolted, and took my freedom. I now vow to eradicate the blight that is called Amarr, and any remembrance of their "god" or "faith" from New Eden.

When I have accomplished this, I will find a new universe, where me and my people, can live without the threat of would be overlords abducting, drugging, and attempting to rule over us.

So basically

"I was a slave and I like Freedom"

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.

LOLLOLLOL!

Ultramarines in EVE! Na on a serious note buddy good luck, dont expect rewards to come easy or fast. A year into EVE and you are still considered by most to be a noob.

I played for about 4 years before I took a break to play dust. I still felt like I only ever got half way to where I wanted to be. (I.E Supers and other things)

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.

I bestow upon you your 1000th like.

HaHa! This sound familiar

Indeed.
Once upon a time you did the same to me in a certain threadnaught.
Funny, that's responsible for nearly a thousand of my likes on its own atm.

For those following this thread, I finally got started with the Tutorials in EVE.

My initial response is that it is quite a lot to take in. It will take some time getting to know my way around all the menus and controls.

The graphics are brilliant. I wish I had a mini Display to HDMI cable so I could view it on my HD TV. My MacBook Screen is kind of small.

Does anyone else use a notebook or laptop to play on? Do you find the trackpad a bit difficult to use with EVE as well? Should I go ahead and invest in a USB Mouse?

mail me your eve character name in-game (i.e. i won't be back in this thread lol) if you need some starting isk. mining or missioning early on to pay for skill books is boring.

Thanks for the offer, I will probably hit you up!

I'm currently just learning the basics. I don't want to go too fast through the Tutorials and stuff, I'm afraid I might forget something important! LOL.

Two question, what happens if my only ship is destroyed? I only have the first noob ship currently.

Can my capsule get destroyed? What happens if it does?

Today the biggest scam ever recorded hit thousands of EVE Online players like a brick in the face, netting a record one trillion ISK in final takings. Proving that old ideas still work, Eddie Lampert and Mordor Exuel pulled off a simple Ponzi scheme on a massive scale. Promising unprecedented returns of 5% per week on invested ISK, the duo convinced over 4,000 players to open accounts in their Phaser Inc. investment scheme. Many initially dubious players were eventually convinced to invest by real testimonials from their friends and corpmates.

Over 1,831.67 billion ISK was invested, 345.18 billion of which was paid out as interest and 452.72 billion of which was withdrawn by wary investors. When the business closed up earlier today its owners collected the remaining 1,034 billion ISK. To put that massive number in perspective, it's enough to buy 2,953 30-day time codes worth a total of $51,677.50.

Yes, your capsule can be destroyed but in empire space anyone not at war with you would take a security hit. Of course that doesn't stop some of them.

If your capsule gets destroyed, you will wake up inside the station where your clone is. Make sure your clone is up to date. So if you have 5m SP, you should get a clone that covers at least 5m SP. You'll have to pay for it.

The tutorials aren't bad if you just start out. Try to upgrade to a frigate as fast as you can.

2 more tips:

1) Specialise! There are no respecs. Focus on basic support skills (engineering, etc.) and then specialise in one area first before branching out.

2) Find a good corporation. There is a recruitment forum on EVE's website. Being in a good corp makes life A LOT easier and the game more interesting. You can join corp PVP gangs even in smaller ships from the start

So far, I have frigate to 3, and is training to 4 as per tutorial.

I think I'm flying a low level frigate as well. It's the 1st ship you have to go get in the tutorial.

I also put armor and shield in the que, but i think it only let me que armor, not sure.

How many skills can you have qued at once. Does it depend on another skill or something like that? I think currently it will only let me have 1 skill in que.

yer sure, ill just walk you through the entire eve experience via the dust forums...

get ur character in -u- pub, and stop being a loner, me and wraith are waiting for you :)

Give me your username and I can help you.

I'm actually not joking though - if you PM it to 'Arkenai Wyrnspire' then I'd be more than happy to assist you with any questions you might have. I've played EVE for a long time.

would it help if i told u our nullsec home was a rusty old minmatar station (with a strip club ofcourse ), i wouldnt mind doing sum more minmatar fw that was fun.

But...Nulsec is...dangerous

LOL oh yea I had that figured out. I was like "ain't no way those aren't noob traps"

I walked through a gate camp couple of days ago, I hope you are familiar with them, the only thing that saved me was they were all in Dessies, cruisers, or smaller, and I was passing through in a battleship..... One guy managed to scram me, I neuted him so fast he couldn't hold me for long.

Big things slipping through a gate camp is a sign of a bad gate camp. However, it also helps when the big thing isn't a bad pilot as well, so +1.

I've had noob moments and died to bad camps before.

Very dangerous, even Low Sec is bad.

see the problem with hisec is that u think ur safe, if someone wants u dead they can still kill u they'll just lose the ship theyre flying, thats all. also u dont know who is freindly and who's a threat untill its too late.

out in nullsec however...

if it aint blue ...pew pew.

You do have a point there. Someone really has to have a grudge if they do that though lol!
