EVE Online?

Postby Bridget Cavenaugh » Sat Jun 05, 2010 2:04 pm

So yeah... I've finally crawled from underneath my rock and purchased EVE Online via Steam. Anyone else playing?

I quit a couple of years ago but a friend recently convinced me to buy the newest pack and start again. I have the pack and will be installing it sometime over the next coming days! I'll let you know what my info is when I know!

EVE is one of those games I refuse to play. It looks cool in theory, but I don't feel like waiting 2 months to research something, or getting perma-killed.

Bri - Initially I was the same, having to take insurance out on your ship incase you are killed is a little insane, but once you get a handle on the economy, join a group and get in to the deeper side of things it can be real fun. Admittedly I am only just starting out and have only put about 14 hours in, I guess my opinion my opinion will change after a few months but so far I am thoroughly enjoying the experience!

The only thing screwing with me right now is my laptop, currently coming to the end of its life I am in the planning stages of building a new rig so hoping that will vastly improve my playtime and the frustration caused!

Any game that needs to hire an actual economist to handle the in-game resource balancing is way too much for me. if it was more action and less waiting around, I'd be a lot more interested. Having a giant flagship would be awesome, but of course I'd never get enough following or resources to build one.

Word.

I once thought I could make an epic deal by buying a Freighter-load full of water for 25ISK in a 0.4 system and sell it for 55ISK (a piece) in a 0.9 system...

After I bought my stuff and left the station I got blown skyhigh lmao.

Oh yeah, pirates are ruthless. I've slowed down over the weekend due to my laptop slowly failing but am hoping when I get the new PC I can finally enjoy it again. Maybe I've just gone stale on it or maybe it is just the computer!

It's a very strange game, I have to say! I can't quite pin down why I keep going back in to it!

It's kind of sophisticated, imo, which I like. I need to actually play it more, but I currently don't have a laptop cooler.

I love Eve. It's hard tog et your head round at first if you don't have someone there to help out.

I'm hoping to re-activate my account at the end of this week.
