Changes are coming to Trial account restrictions. With these changes, CCP Terminus and the rest of Team Size Matters hope to make things easier for new players trying out EVE Online for the first time. Read more details here.

Sorry, we could not find the item you were looking for.
You're too early, it's still propagating though the internet tubes. Internet tube propagation complete, should be all good now.

If the hint isn't relevant for a subscriber player to see they shouldn't be seeing them. Anything we add that is useful for everyone will most likely be available for everyone.
Trial restriction messages will still show in the descriptions of skills. That way players who are subscribers will be able to help trial players. |

Good catch, we'll remove the Batlecruisers skill from the list since it no longer exists.
As for the cloaking, yeah that will most likely lead to a large amount of headaches. |

this is one of the things that we will be following closely. But our main focus was , we don't want to restrict the many for the assholery of the few. The old trials had a lot of restrictions like that and our aim was to give players the freedom the enjoy eve as much as possible in the limited time that the trial is and instead handle the bad apples accordingly

It's the way to have enough money and time for PVP. Without t2 ammo there will be less targets to engage. For example, my atron : without t2 charges I could fight with the one tactic - keeping target into 500 m orbit and shoot it with FN antimatter. That's why I couldn't attack blaster frigates and ones with tracking speed bonuse. With T2 ammo I can to kill the target with voids keeping approach or shoot out it with keeping @ 7 km with nulls. So leave t2 small gunnery for trials. Sorry for my horrible English.
T2 Weapon skill were restricted in order to guide players away from training for them. We feel the 5-7 days spend training for T2 weapons can be spent more enjoyably by trial players on numerous other skills, or training for newer ships. |

FW issues have been brought up a few times. We will be monitoring what happens, and if it's making a large and negative impact to FW we will re-restrict it. |

However, if the new player joins FW in Amarr or Caldari, they will get killed by faction police in Arnon.
If you do the SoE arc while participating in any sort of FW you'll be roflstomped by ridiculously fit OP NPCs anyway since you're being handed once around the ENTIRE cluster anyway. Looks good - I mean now at least the big giant orange "give us your money" signs explain why stuff is limited. Until there would be infinite trials however I don't quite see the point of locking XL ships. Of the top of my head I personally still need somewhere around 4 months to fly a carrier if I'd start to train for it now - after having 40m SP spread to the one or other skill. I don't think there is a trial quite long enough to reach XL ships is what I want to say I guess.
A lot of the capital skill restriction additions are for clarity purposes. In the current trial we don't inform new players in any way that they cannot get to these kinds of ships in the time given. This is also a form of future-proofing, in that even if we extended the time of trials by a significant amount we would still be restricting capital ships for balance reasons. |
