Well I been reading and following this game for some time now. I have never played Eve online, but am very excited about this new cross platform MMO FPS game
Well I had a few games, and at first this is very overwelming.
Seems like a lot of people here are familiar with Eve, or have been playing the beta for awhile
I guess some tips and advice is a good place to start
I do have some questions
1) I was just scrolling through the forums and found some interesting topics, and reading through them I kind of sratched my head lol. I saw something mentioned about singularity is now live. Meaning Eve players can get in touch with Dust players.
Is there a way for Dust players to contact eve players? Can only eve Players contact Dust players? Can we be hired by corporations now in the beta? If so how does this work?
2) Is there any good clans out there that dont mind someone who is new and willing to learn, and am very fimiliar with other MMOs, and FPS games. (Im 32 male, First MMO I played was Star Wars galaxies lol I konw... and first online FPS game I played and quickly addicted to was Battlefield 1942)
3) Been browsing the market, and skills, at first it is a lot to take in, but I am starting to get the hang of it. However earning SP at the end of a battle is going very slow. Is this common? Also earning money I get maybe 50-80,000 ISK at the end of battle. From reading some forums I am understanding we can make more from companies/corporations from Eve Players. How to go about doing this if possible?
4) I have bought some skills, like vehicle piloting. In the BF games, I am very good at tanking, and flying, so I know after some training, I will be deadly on the battlefield, but is there specific things that are ideal to put skills into from the start. Give that extra boost for a noob going up against already xp players. Such as maybe focus on getting my dropsuit higher lvl,
I know it is customize to your playstyle, but just advice, or tips could help.
I read the sticky thread at the top of this section for people new and confused, but I didnt really find any of my questions answered. I am sorry if these have been asked before, I hope that this will not only help myself, but other new players as well.
I look forward to playing this game. As I been saying to my friends I think I found my new battlefield.
5) Again since I am new to this universe, if someone could maybe post some Eve lingo and what it may mean. Common terms and/or abreviations that are commonly used in Eve/Dust that may come up a lot. That way I can better understand what the hell people are talking about.
Any helpful links to my questions and comments are greatly appreciated it. I look forward to playing with you all, and cant wait to get the full experience of this games.
Thanks for your time Krynn |

Thank you very much for your replies. A lot of good information. Ill be sure to go over it more closely once I get the time. I really appreciate it.
I did have another question.
When on the market place there is BPC, and BPO. I read the blue print originals are a color blue on the market, and are unlimited use. I know they are more rare, but are they out now? If so, I dont seem to see any, or maybe not sure how to tell them apart.
If there are BPO out now, how to go about finding them?
I also wondered right now I am using the PS3 controller. How many are using a keyboard and mouse? I know keyboard and mouse is better, but my current set up is hard to sit comfortably while using keyboard and mouse, so I am just using the PS3 controller. Im wondering how much of a disadvantage am I at?
I purchased the 20 dollar pack on the PSN in order to get into this beta (Couldnt Wait for release, or a possible code) and I recieved some items. A scout dropsuit, and a few others. Few questions Are these good? I am currently a assualt build, so Id have to train to use the scout dropsuit, or reroll another character. I Havent assigned any items yet as I am waiting to decide my playstyle, and what I am going to go with, but if I dont use them now, will I lose them when the beta ends?
What about our current progress, when the beta is over, do we lose all our progress and start over when the game is released? If so that would be a big waste of my 30 day booster lol
Thanks again for taking the time to read and answer my questions. You guys rock, and look forward to seeing you all planet side

Wow, thank you very much, that's good to know.

I was looking under militia gear, didn't really look like anything was better there from what you start out with |
