If you haven't been following the happenings in Eve lately, the winter patch is bringing a lot of cool stuff. Every race is getting a new tier 3 battlecruiser that uses large battleship size guns. Hybrid weapons are finally getting a buff in the form of better tracking, higher dps, and lower fitting requirements. Super caps are getting nerfed so that they cant own a battlefield without support to back them up. CCP also came up with a method of taming lag in massive fleet fights called time dilation(you'd have to read about it, it's technical) Lots of other stuff as well but I don't want to type out an essay here.
How do people even start new now, will they not be forever behind everyone else? _________________ K-SWISS Power cologne. Who knew you could bottle the scent of boner?

<disclaimer>I haven't played this in a long time but I still pay attention to what is changing</disclaimer>
It really doesn't take long to build a character that has a couple things that is good at. Learning is now off the table and everyone learns at (or near) the same rate. The basic skills to fly a decent frig are easily obtainable and you can make a difference in fleet combat. Getting in with a good corp is probably more important than ever if you want to play in low sec space.

We just kicked off our newbie drive on SA, and have skill plans that can be plugged into evemon to help our new players get into the ships that we use for combat. Though our fleet doctrine is likely going to change once the new ships hit tranquility. People are having a lot of fun on the test server right now playing with all the new stuff. Gallente ships look like they're all getting a speed/agility buff so that now they can get into blaster range more easilly.

When I get my new rig built i may try a trial account and see what I think. I always loved the way it looked, but it always seemed that to ever go beyond safe space, would require more playing/funds than I ever could put into it. _________________ K-SWISS Power cologne.

Quick question for you eve whores......if I started an account, you still do passive XP gain right? So I could train skills and not play....then just buy a shit ton of ISK and start playing once I get past a lot of the silly noob mining for isk phase correct? Looks like you can buy ISK pretty damn cheap..... _________________ K-SWISS Power cologne. Who knew you could bottle the scent of boner?

Yes as long as your account is sub'd you will train skills without being online. Also, don't buy isk from places like IGXE and others unless you want your account banned for a while. CCP has been 100% on top of this. I have guys in Goonwaffe that run botting empires that I can buy isk from without much worry, it's $20 bucks per billion through paypal. Let me know when you want it and I'll get it for you.

Yes they trained while you're offline, as long as your account is paid.

I have like 10b isk just sitting around. I don't play anymore.. Perhaps we could come to some sort of arrangement... I could potentially have 30-40b isk if we came to the right agreement.
