A call to all old school EVE players or anyone currently playing! Join up with Interslice Incorporated and help us penetrate some german a******s with penis shaped battleships!

Free ISK to joiners, large bounties for deserters!

mmmm dessert

ahh, ISK. More inflation than the Zimbabwe dollar.

THIS MEANS YOU MANTRA!

mining space rocks brb 10 weeks

Pay for an account and I'll sign up.

I'll give eve credit where it's due. It's the most interactive screensaver I have seen.

Free ISK to joiners

your corp giving out 4368274327847239748923748927489237489232ISK to every newcomer?

wow, that MAY offset the cost of getting podded every five minutes by some wanker who is hell bent on being a wanker and the ridiculous cost of clones and implants.

I've been playing for almost a week, still on the trial account... what do I have to do?

I presume I'd be next to useless though and get exploderised in less than 1 second.

Doesn't matter, we'll put you in a frigate if we have to :P

I have 2 chars.. 40mil+ sp on one, about 25mil on the other. Can fly capitals, covert ops, etc.

But I just can't bring myself to play Eve anymore.

premium graphics or classic graphics... is it worth the extra 600mb download?

do eeet

btw i have played enough to be able to pilot cruisers if that makes it any better

You talking an empire wardec or are you guys having trouble in 0.0?

my corp takes on merc contracts, we have 50 or so members. We fly only Tech2 ships/battleships and can field 10 or so capitals if required, half of em dreads.

Our corp is Insideous Existence (EXIT) and Darkst0rm (with a zero) is our CEO.
my character is Eric Fuhrmann

I kept falling asleep between jumps...

blargh, i gave eve ago. i can see why people like it but im sinking to much of my spare time into eq2 atm and eve just seems overwhelming with all the eq2 s*** going on in my head.

Cool, I found a new target! :P

It's a pitiful war, judging by the looks of our enemy they just go round and target newbie corps into giving them money. Since a lot of us have barely been playing it a month it was a little difficult at first, but we finally took one of their ships down tonight (pity I wasn't there).

My character is Djavo, though tempted in making another one now that I've learnt some things.

Cool, your character is Khanid, may have to pick your brain on some things.

THIS MEANS YOU MANTRA!

Me?! Why me? I played the trial a while ago... It seems pretty good, but there does seem to be a huge learning curve. I might give it a go with another trial and see if I can work it out.

I played about 3hrs of eve, seems like a really great concept, but it takes so f***ing long to achieve anything...like any other mmos...i just want some fun action, not somethign to take over my life.

i had the same experience as amazing with eve when i was trying to quit wow

posting from my awesome tv

What corps are you guys in and how active are they in AU timezone? I used to be a director in MASS (for about 2 1/2yrs) and was heavily involved in the 0.0 politics of Stain, FIX, BoB, etc.

Is Eve still boring s***?

I think young Barbara got my Earth & Beyond obession mixed up with Eve...

Add mongie0101 to your corp

I DRIVE A MERLIN WOO

Is Eve still boring s***?

I have played it just over a week and am still doing level 1 missions... even after moving halfway across the galaxy or whatever I've done some of the missions it keeps giving me 3 times already... pretty over it and probably won't continue after the trial runs out.

Not strong enough to solo level 2 missions atm, I get pwned way too hard. I currently fly a Stabber Cruiser with 2 x 720mm howitzers, 1 x assault missile launcher, 1 x heavy assault missile launcher, and a 280mm howitzer + a salvager.

It rapes most lvl 1 missions ships in 1 barrage. Seems not enough to do lvl 2 missions safely...

I'm not gonna continue with EVE until:

- I can change font sizes (current font @ 2550x1600 licks balls an is smaller than asian p3n0r)
- ALchemy support for audio is created (Vista + X-Fi = no hardware acceleration)

The learning curve is steep an I'm ok with that (despite the occasional frustration)
I've just got lil to no interest in spending a metric f***load of time an effort 24x 7 into a game just so I can have fun.

My idea of a game is "pick it up, install, play, enjoy immediately" an not have to rely/co-ordinate with a dozen other people just to gain any real benfit out of it.

Sorry ladies, I'm out

Yeh I played Eve for about a week and the first few days were rly cool but then it just got monotonous as f***.

They seriously need to think about how fkn slow the gameplay is.

That being said the game itself looks swish now with DX10 capabilities :D

Well, I started a dude called Harvey Norman... completely noobing it all over the place, but I'm not exploded yet... I've just upgraded to the frigate they give you as part of those first 10 missions. Now I'm learning er.. learning and can't finish the last one.

It seems like a nifty concept. I'll see how I go...

What corps are you guys in and how active are they in AU timezone?

We're in one we created ourselves, just sitting in empire space atm as a lot of us are under a month old or not that much older. All of the people in it are skips, so we're pretty active prior to shutdown and after it.

Is there anyway to pass the gayness that is the missions step?

It takes forf***ingever to get a high enough standing to be able to get level 2 missions and even now that I can JUST get some they are too hard for my current ship.


I'm not doing every level 1 mission 10 times before being able to do level 2 missions solo.

What are your names

Two people sent me messages and I have nfi who they are!

f*** hermi, how many dramas do you have with your xfi?

just get rid of it already

The way to play instantly is spend $100 on etc and trade for a 25m SP char

It takes forf***ingever to get a high enough standing to be able to get level 2 missions and even now that I can JUST get some they are too hard for my current ship.

What ship are you using at the moment?

Training up connections will boost the standing.

from what i remember when i was playing - the f***ing training was retarded slow and pointless

3 months to train something - whether you play or not is retarded

I posted that earlier

I currently fly a Stabber Cruiser with 2 x 720mm howitzers, 1 x assault missile launcher, 1 x heavy assault missile launcher, and a 280mm howitzer + a salvager.

I'm over it anyway, trial runs out in like 4 days and I ain't paying to play it.

I upgraded my account. I've been spreading myself across 3 characters, so they're all basically just out of the tutorial missions... Still I paid for another 3 months. I like how just about everything is player driven or affected, and there seems to be so much to it.

Anyway, if anyone plays, I have three chars:

Harvey Norman - Gallente Trader type
Harvee Mormarn - Caldari miner type
Samuel MFJ - Minmatar combat type

WTS
53 Mill SP Amarr Spec'ed & 44 Mill Minmatar HAC/Recon spec'ed :P

Anyway, if anyone plays, I have three chars:

That's quite an effort - sucks that you can't train multiple characters at a time.

53 Mill SP Amarr spec'ed

Nah I am not intrested in sell him, just wanted to wave my e-peen around :P

Anyway, if anyone plays, I have three chars:
That's quite an effort - sucks that you can't train multiple characters at a time.

Not really, they're all lowbies. I'm going to have to pick one to make my main I think, because trying to work out who's worthy of the next training session is a pain, I want to train all of them dammit!! I'm thinking the miner, but I do like the combat dude, love the ship that looks like it's made out of duct tape and wire and it's so damn speedy! :)

Also, f***ing hell Thrax!

Nah I am not intrested in sell him, just wanted to wave my e-peen around :P

I can see why!

How long have you been playing that character? Because that's nuts!

Anyone wanna buy a 45m+ character, I cant remember how many SP he has exactly maybe getting close to 47m, has a carrier etc and can pilot motherships.

If anyones interested ill reactivate and check the exact details.

^ I'll buy for a 6 pack of xXXXx

welllllll no
