CaptainFalcon07 Caucasian Culture Club Transmission Lost 22	Posted - 2012.10.01 00:03:00 - [1] - Quote A vast majority of items are produced from only minerals within this game, but how does this work? How could you make Nuclear or Depleted Uranium ammo with just the minerals and not including any radioactive elements? Tritanium is the most commonly used mineral in the entire game, yet it is highly volatile and unstable at standard conditions which stations typically have to suit human living requirements.

How does a ship composed majority of tritanium be able withstand mini-nuclear and antimattar explosions and being heating to over 6000 degrees Celsius by lasers? I heard that anything with MEGA in it is pretty serious ****. Particularly when it's used by the ton.

Sobaan Tali Caldari Quick Reaction Force 79	Posted - 2012.10.01 03:50:00 - [14] - Quote I suspect the simplest answer might be better realized by understanding that the seemingly simple minerals in the game may in fact be far more complex than they apear to be. Perhaps tritanium is as abundent and abuntently used because its extremely complex chemical and physical properties allow it to be so useful. It could also be possible that what ever else might be needed to construct something that would, according to a blueprint, only require minerals may be already covered (i.e. doesn't repuire mining because it might be supllied free of charge) and does not warrent mentioning in the manufacturing process. Ofc, it is also a game, and as such will have a number of intentional design flaws and inconsistancies put in place as a compromise between realism and convenient gameplay mechanics. Games like Eve sometimes must have naturally unrealistic elements for it to make sense as a game. This may very well be one of those...

Herping yourDerp Tribal Liberation Force Minmatar Republic 794	Posted - 2012.10.01 05:17:00 - [17] - Quote actually we don't. vespene gas is so abundant and toxic it was mined off many planets in the system, the supply outweighs demand so much that it's given free instead of disposing it. scientist estimate at current usage the eve universe has over 400 years worth of vespene gas to use before it starts running low.

Chlorine gas is toxic and will kill you rather quickly. We ingest Sodium Chloride all the time, and our bodies are full of water. I wonder what magic keeps us from exploding or dying when this happens. I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.
