Originally by: Avernus Those old screens along with their descriptions, were one of the major factors for getting me involved in Eve back when the Beta opened up to the general public. They were really well done, it's like each screen managed to show off a facet of a larger story, and fired the imagination. The chronicles made a big difference as well.
One of the things that got me into eve are listed here and here.
Quote: Jove - The most mysterious and elusive of all the peoples of EVE, the Jovians number only a fraction of any of their neighbors, but their technological superiority makes them powerful beyond all proportion. (note: players can evolve into being Jove as time progresses in Eve)
I have been here 7 yrs and still wondering how long its going to take to evolve into being a Jovian
Oh and thanks for the old links Homo Erectus.

Maybe they meant you can evolve to be as powerful as them lol. In all seriousness that's probably like any game one of many ideas that got sc****d at some point in the evolution of the game.

Did anyone else see this little treasure in the screen shots from Alpha testing?
(censored).jpg
Guy is in a private conversation with TomB (the immortal), complaining because his Osprey blueprint was replaced by a Probe blueprint. Guy is understandably upset, having paid 80,000 for what became a Probe blueprint, and already owns a Rifter blueprint. The industrious Guy has even stockpiled almost 50,000 units of tritanium to build the much-anticipated Osprey.
TomB (the knowledgeable) calmly explains that the Osprey blueprint was not supposed to be sold, and that the Probe has been upgraded with a big cargo hold and is therefore "better than Rifter" anyway. (Good thing the Goons aren't around anymore to hear that!)
TomB (the wise) finally promises to reimburse Guy after dinner, after which the immortal sage then imparts one last piece of (passive aggressive) advice:
TomB > but don't forget it's an alpha, your character might be wiped tomorrow TomB > tell that to them who helped you
There are also multiple pilots in global chat named Barack, and a paintshop button on the station panel. Awesome!
tl;dr
TomB thinks a Probe is better than a Rifter, and is noob
And censorship sucks and the link doesn't work, so you will have to follow the link here for the directory and find the link yourself. Last one beginning with the letter "f"

These pictures should be stickied. Or maybe not, there would be super amounts of whining over the UI and everything else, but I'm glad EVE has moved on. I only started playing four years ago but, even then, it was a much better place than what the original EVE looked like it was.

Tomb was right about Probe as it was the best ninja mining ship for null sec. Basically you bought BP for it and if rat killed you you just made another one while mining abc ores. Second best was imicus (smaller cargo hold).
This was before CCP gave each race designated mining ship and made Probe exploration ship.
