Eve

Post by mid_gen »

Bought Eve the other day. I played during beta but it wasn't really playable at that point. Now it's been out a while, it's muuuch better :)

I'm in a good corp, we do group mining every night with industry ships to ferry ore back to station, so all you have to do is sit there mining, and jettison the ore for the freighters to pick up. You can make a shitload of cash v quickly doing it :)

We just took delivery of 3 new cruisers today, we should all have them within 2 weeks, it's gonna take me a week to train up the skills needed for it. Once we're using them we can start mining in lower security zones and making the big money, get some decent blueprints and start selling ships.

And of course we'll be pirate-whupping too :)

I'd reccomend people give it a go, first month's play is free. If you want a corp to join, gimme a shout.

I'm sure the game would be much more enjoyable if everyone got given all the best ships and equipment the first time they log in. :roll:

Anything's better than mining. I got bored of that in JumpGate ;)

Flying is all mouse driven. Combat is about your trained skills and combinations of guns/missiles/rockets/ECM/electronic warfare.

You get the first month of playing free, but you have to buy the game first.

Hehe, I played EVE beta for about a month then bought the full release

It was ok, it was a game with great community spirit sorta think.... just took bloody ages to get anywhere

Mech part trade runs were teh win in my badger mk 2 :D

Aside from the lag, and patch every other day it was a good game

(I don't play it any more though)
