question about the skills that are in the market place. The ones that have a red x if I purchase those then will I learn those skills or can I only learn skills with a green check? and after I purchase said skill is it automaticaly learned or do I have to place skill points into that skill? |

You can only learn the skills with a green check, you must put skill points in after you buy the book (the two actions are separate), and if you press triangle on the books with the red X it will tell you what skills you will need before you can use them. |

great info, I now somewhat understand, Just wondering if it is all worth all the trouble to get heavily involved in a game like this instead of maybe practice BF3 to get ready for Bf4, I think ppl like ending's to things that come with the serial number like cod4, mw3, so they know that improvements to the game before has been made so maybe they have a chance to be good at the next one.

I'm not new and I'm only slightly confused, but I do have a couple questions about weapon descriptions and names. However I'm not sure whether I should just create a thread about it in general discussion or if I should just post them here though. Do you guys think i should just ask the question here?

Ok, here's my question: On the Assault Rifles, some of them say they can fire auto OR semi-auto, depending on the ammo loaded.... Is there any assault rifle that actually does that? I couldnt change the type of fire in battle. Or are they seperate rifles, like breach vs. tactical or something...........
The semi-auto assault rifles seem to suck....
*EDIT*
also, when aiming the shotgun, does that effect the attributes of the shot, or just help you in aiming as a sight aid?? |

To OP, awesome thread!
great job summarizing Eve history in a nutshell. And as an EVE veteran I found myself chuckling at some of your descriptions, very entertaining.
This should really help new folks enjoy Dust.
Definitely worth a sticky!

Excellent OP, although a little tricky to read at work, it doesn't look like the new leasing contract management system that I should be testing!
Looking forward to getting on for the firtst this evening. |

Currently not that I know of.
Sorry about my absence, I have been very busy at college the last few weeks. I have submitted an updated version of this thread in the replies here as requested by unicorn. I don't know what will happen with that but hopefully an updated guide with the inclusion of other great guides out there will come out of it.
When the NDA goes down, I may start a blog of sorts dedicated to helping new players and discussing aspects of the game. Anyone that has experience in this or has ideas feel free to message me on my PSN evaius . I am completely knew to the whole blog thing so any help or guidance would be appreciated and credited. :)
Just helps you aim I am pretty sure. |

Q: hey I have a question about the "radar". what is the difference between blue and turquoise ones?
A: The colors on the radar are as follows. Blue = On team but not in squad. Green = In Squad. Tannish = neutral. Red = enemies.
Q: its the battles i get lost in sometimes... where is everybody sometimes??
A: You could either be in an empty match, on a big map, or everyone is on the other end of the map. Try opening the map and looking for blues and reds and head that way!
Q: how do you command your squad & what buttons are the commands?
A: Ok to command your squad you can do it two different ways. One way is to hold R2 click the right stick move the stick to the command and make sure the command stays highlighted and release R2. The command will show up on your screen and you then pull the trigger on whatever you would like to set the command on, whether it be an enemy or a teammate. You can only set certain commands on certain objects so keep that in mind. The second way to set commands is via the map, this usually only works on objects like installations and objectives, hold x and use the right stick to select the command.
Q: why dont i see orbital strike in 'off map support' when i've been informed by the info box i have access to it?
A: Only squad commanders can call in the strike.
Q: whats the circle for on my map? (down button) i can move it around... but.....????
A: you use this to issue commands.
Q: how do i score more than a few thousand points?
A: make sure your squad is using commands, the best way to gain points with a squad is to put a defend order on a fellow squad mate, stick together and kill and do various things that get wp.
Teacup9 try emailing dust514 support, or try to catch a dev on IRC.

Also needs to add that a basic LAV is an SP foutain in even a newbs hands if they play whack a dropsuit with it.
Yes, if there are any tips for 'day one' (or week 1 in my case) players that would be very very helpful. |

When creating a character, do the race and bloodline have an effect?
Or could someone explain its function? |

A: No, it doesn't effect any stats in game.

A: If the killing blow is a head shot, you are unable to be revived. |

Apologies if this was requested already. A link to the Eve influence map in full color would give Dust Players a better understanding of the constantly changing power structure of the eve universe. So when they eventually fight in 0.0 they know who is in the area and if it is a heavily contested zone.
Don't forget the day Skynet went online and all of the player owned structures in eve shot at everything both friend and foe. Many tears were shed that day.
Awesome Job. As an eve veteran I approve of this message.

yeah i made mistake of buy 50, instead of just 1 since they do NOT run out. I believe this is because all Militia items are BPO - Blueprint Originals as opposed to everything else which is BPC - Blueprint Copy. BPOs never run out, BPCs do. I'm not sure if there are any other BPO items on the market other than militia gear, but I'm interested to see how they handle BPOs for other items. I'm imagining they will be much more pricey than a regular BPC since a BPO is more a costly, but cheaper long-term investment. I dont think we'll see BPOs at all other than militia gear. CCP hate the fact that BPOs are in EVE as its a fixed point in the economy. Hence why they don't reseed them when accounts with them go inactive or they get blown up in transport etc.
not exactly true....
They hate ( sorta) Tech 2 bpos...there are many normal items that are t1..its the rarirty of t2 bpos that skew the market ..... |

Thanks for posting that! Very good info for those just stepping into Eve *AND* DUST! Been playing Eve for years, but I'm new to the console part, and still lost after just installing the beta last night.
I took the liberty of generating your original post into a PDF that folks can download for a quick document they can carry with them.. You original links are still click-able (assuming internet connection is available). The PDF is here:
Brief History of Eve for DUSTers

I never played EVE so the whole "Keeping **** in stock thing" was pretty difficult for me. I now buy things in bulk when needed. Just recently decided to skip the gear i was aiming for and going after the best gear my skills allow me to use. Simply switched from the Militia AR to the GEK and i sorta did better in battle. Sadly the Militia gear in the current build is just cheap and the blueprint ones can only be purchased with Aurum.
Are there some sorta bonuses to the races? I mean am I gonna be a better Logistics player if I remake my guy as a Minmatar? Or are they simply preferential? |
