The your corpmates can guide you from there. Ultimately, you will find there are many, many things you can do in Eve. You will find that your preferences can and will change over time... that't the neat thing about this game, we can can change direction any time we wish. S
be very very careful doing this. Most corps in eve and utterly fail /useless and you will ruin your game joining them. This one step is the most important choice you will make in eve. |

I don't know what I should aim for. I don't know enough about the game. I have looked around for all sorts of guides, but non really answer my questions. I mine, but what do I do then with the income that I will get? Do I use the ISK to go and get a frigate? Then what? I'm sort of stumped by the steep learning curve. I know all the basics, I just don't know what to do with them.
What are the main activities in this game?
To sum it up, I just don't know what to aim for! Hopefully I put this thread in the right place.
First do mission grinding in High sec...get bored eventually, Join a null sec corp and move incredible amounts of useless stuff to some god-forsaken ratting system. Get camped there by afk cloakers. make some isk...get bored with home defense and stupid F1 fleet fights. Get kicked out by some bigger fish. retreat to high sec...be bored immediatly. end up shooting as many people as possible in low sec - harvest tears - be satisfied.

What do you want to do?
That's the point of EvE, craft your own content.
You want to go visit every solar system, take a screenshot of it's star and then make one of those pictures made up of other pictures? go for it
You want to mine all the minerals? go for it
You want to take over a 0.0 system and make it open to all and organise thunderdome style fights that people bet isk on? go for it
You want to scam people of all their monies? go for it
failing that, make isk, go blow stuff up :)
Making others cry is fun
edit; I should probably add that others will try to stop you doing these things, because it's a sandbox so you have to put in the effort to accomplish the awesome things :) |

good you ask, the sole purpose of new pilots in this game should be to destroy goonswarm, you need to make it your one and only task, it will give you great meaning in all what you do, you mine to get a better ship, you learn skills just to assure you can blast them harder every day, go out there, set course to VFK, and engage every goon you see, you will loose ships, you will die
but you will have a mission, you will get better and we will succeed, and someday when we read the news that all of goonswarm was wiped out, the biggest alliance in gaming history, you know you have been part of it, you have been the forerunner ... |

I would suggest that you look for a good corporation/alliance and make their goals your own.
This is a terrible single-player game |

Mr. Forever I am genuinely curious what the Goonswarm Federation has done to you personally to earn this internet enmity? |

It depends on you, really.
If you have the mentality of a 12year old, you do whatever griefing you can get away with to pad your killboard stats.
If, on the other hand, you are reasonably adult, then you have a wide open world to discover and make yourself a part of.

Firstly, do you like gaming solo or with friends?
EVE University is a good place to learn and make friends. Finding a good corporation with good peeps is an excellent goal if your a social person. I have been with the same friends pretty much since the beginning of Eve for me, over 2 1/2 years now. I've made many new friends by venturing into low and null sec after meeting people in incursions.
Chatting in local, even starter systems could also help you find people to play with. Heck, you could even start your own corporation. Get voice chat and be picky about who you keep in your corp. Anyone that doesn't fit your game style, say goodbye too. Talking to older pilots can really help
Getting on battleclinic.com and looking at ship fits can really help. learning to pvp is essential IMO. Others don't believe it is necessary, but if you really want to experience the game this is a good path.

It can take a few days for some players to find their place in EVE, it can take a few years for some other ones. There's no best activity in EVE, and no one can tell you what you will like. Give a try to a bit of everything, both in solo and in group. |
