So I've played a couple MMO's before mainly WoW. (Also SW tor and Rift) I've always read about how crazy Eve is and all that even my own father got into the game and I remember him telling me all these crazy stories. Like I said I was playing WoW so I wasn't interested.
Anyways, Eve is on sale on Steme for 7 dollars so I decided what the heck I'll try it. So I'm in the first hour or two in the game and I just cruise by a huge burning planet and my jaw drops. I immediately turn to my gf who's playing my Diablo account while I play Eve and have to show her. It looks gorgeous!
So I keep playing and playing slowly learning things about the game. How to do this or that and I do my first probe scan thing. When I finally got it down it felt awesome! I first looked on youtube then got some help from the incredible community.Which as you can tell WoW doesn't have. Anyways on to my point. Is there a safe way to play this game? I'm literally terrified now of dying. Which is weird to me since I absolutely love PvP but this game is on a whole new level. So guys, what tips or stories do you have about when you first started playing? |

What separates the vet pvpers from the newbies is the vets have died so many times, they are able to keep everything in perspective when they fight. If you don't have any isk, attack people with your rookie ships. Someone killed a tornado with a velator , and here's a velator vs. Oracle movie, same dude. What is better than flying a free ship? The number one rule of eve is don't fly what you can't afford to lose, so if you fly cheap crap, and die, and you learn cheap lessons. Because you WILL die. Keep your medical clone up to date so you don't lose SP and you're golden.
Alright thanks for the help! I appreciate it. |

I don't know what that is? Is that a community or something? |

Oh my.. Everyone.. I am pretty busy with work and found today I could finally play for a bit and I log in to see a bunch of letters. After reading all of them then checking back here I am over whelmed with information to say the least. However, I have never in my life been offered so much help as I have been with this community. I can not believe the people that play this game, I can not believe how generous a fanbase can be.
Maybe it's because I'm so jaded when it comes to forums since I've played games with some pretty terrible communities but even the best of communities wouldn't be able to compare to this. Thank you all so much for the support I've been given and thank you for making a game that seems daunting, well still daunting. But now I have this drive to get better and learn more just so I can consider my self a member of this incredible community. Thank you all so so much.

Also on second note, I just realized I've been given a total of 61 million isk. Only one who has given me has told me so, so to everyone else who did it and didn't even ask for a thanks, well thank you. I can't believe the wonderful start I've been given. Mining so far has caught my interest and I plan on starting that and with all this money I don't think it will be a problem. |
