As with most established communities, knowing how to find answers on your own can help you make friends and prove your worth to the community. It's frequently better to frame your question in a way that shows you made some effort to find your own answer than just asking. Eve Online has been around for fifteen years! As someone just joining the game, that leaves fifteen years' worth of websites, blog posts, Reddit entries, and forums to go through in order to find something useful. Chances are good that the question you have has been answered, but knowing where to look and what's current can be difficult.

Going Omega

When I first tried Eve Online, there was only the option of a three-day trial. Now, you can play Eve for an unlimited amount of time as an Alpha Clone, or take the plunge to become an Omega. And can I say that I love that CCP worked this change not only from a mechanics perspective but also added the change into the very lore of the game itself? If you haven't seen this, take the time to read Sine Wave: Alpha and Sine Wave: Omega . Alpha Clones As an Alpha Clone, you'll have access to a vast amount of  Eve Online at a rather basic level. You'll get to experience most facets of play, while being held back from the higher tiers of those aspects. You're limited to tech 1 ships (the first level in each category of hull) and nothing bigger than a Battleship. You'll learn new skills at 1/2 the rate of an Omega, and some kills won't be able to be trained, or won't be able to be trained past a certain point. Many corporations will accept Alpha clones into ...

Barriers to Entry: Where do I go Now?

If you've read my previous post on the New Player Experience , then you'll already know that I'm a huge advocate for the Career Agents in Eve Online . I think these are great intros into some of the mainstream ISK making ventures you might try out in Eve. Well, at least the non-PVP vetures. But like so many of the tutorials in Eve, they do not quite go far enough. Great, you have a Venture Mining Frigate, some mining lasers, and know how to shoot said lasers at rocks in space. But how do you actually make money at that? Oooh, look at you and your Wreathe Industrial Ship... but do you really want to use it to run low level distribution missions for a handful of ISK? Like I said, the career missions prepare you, but they're only the most basic of courses. After you complete the tracts, get the free ships, and hone a few skills, you need to work on a lot of other related aspects to really start bringing in the money. There are a number of streamers that have tried t...

Annals: Golden Omber and Insect Dread

I can still remember the lectures they gave at Pator Tech as my cohort of capsuleers prepared for our new lives. They were full of the bullshit you expect in government-sanctioned propaganda (You're the hope of the Republic. Remember your Tribe and always act in their Honor. Let us down and we'll come blow your fucking pod to pieces!). I remember the lessons we had on using our new clones too; make sure we sync up regularly; make sure we don't fly in a ship OR a clone we can't afford to lose; always remember to change our primary medical clone to the station we're going to call home. What they never told me, though, was that waking up a vat of biogel is one of the worst things you'll ever experience. It's not just being surrounded by a vat of body-temperature gel. It's the jarring of not being where your mind last remembers. It's the tug of the cables plugged into the ports along your spine, the eerie glow of the light coming through the goo and ...
