Originally by: SPlDER 1. i was just wondering what is a Corp. is this the same thing as saying a clan ?
A corp is a bit like a clan in other games. People get together in a group (called a corporation), started by a CEO. Usually it is towards some purpose, but not always. You may mine together, pvp(player vs player) together, npc(hunt npc's, non-playable characters, aka as spawns, rats, etc...), join an alliance and go into 0.0 (lawless space), produce items (ships, modules, etc...), pirate (the most fun imo), etc...The benefits are generally shared among members...if not, find a different corp.
Originally by: SPlDER 2.what does a corp want out of me ? what do i have to do and what should i do and what do i get ?
Good question. Depends on the corp. Some corps want you to fight with them, which you may or may not enjoy. Some corps want you to mine (aka carebearing), which, if you are like me you may not enjoy. Usually, the idea is to benefit everyone equally and do things together that one person alone can't do.
Originally by: SPlDER im sure all corps are diferant but what are some basic things i should know about corps ?
Here are some of my keys to finding a good corp: - Look for one that will benefit from you - Look for one that you will benefit from - Starting out, don't go with a corp that is too big (more than say 80 members) - Small corps may not be a bad thing, as people will be working at the same levels that you are. - Starting out, avoid corps in alliances. - Take notice if a corp is at war...do you want to get involved in there wars? (Now for me, wars are fun...but for a n00b they may not be) - Ask where they are mostly from (timezones)...you want to occassionally see members of your corp, right?
Originally by: SPlDER and what is FA' ? is this important to know.
FA is Fountain Alliance, they are up in the Fountain region...it is important to know who the big name alliances are. Find out where FA, NORAD, CA, BoB, PA, SE, and Xetic are...stay away from stupid small alliances, like COE in providence...generally these small alliances are just waiting to irritate someone bigger who will waste on them.
Good luck to you mate. Enjoy the game.
--------------- I guarantee that my opinions are the complete opposite of those of my corp and alliance. Get over it. |
