With EVE Online: Ascension, the massive expansion arriving on November 8, we are also getting a fully revamped new player experience (NPE).
This new NPE introduces new players to EVE Online and the fantastic universe of New Eden by letting them run a storyline driven campaign that explains the foundations of being a capsuleer in an immersive and exciting way.
Read more about this new NPE and its first part in the latest blog Inception - The new player experience for EVE Online!

Hi,
So far this looks promising. Now, having produced beginner walkthroughs for the past four years on youtube and having seen all the "recent" iterations of the tutorial system, I will observe careful optimism and wait to see this thing in action before judging :)
But efforts in the direction of new players are always a good thing, so props for that :)
Quick questions:
- http://content.eveonline.com/www/newssystem/media/70628/1/AuraHighlight.PNG : Are you really letting Aura's eyes stay this way? That's more like Aura Zombie Edition at the moment... :p
- "We have created 5 new sites for the Inception NPE:" Does this mean that these are combat sites? If so, aren't you affraid that at times of high affluence, lots of new players will pile into the same site and basically mutually ruin their experience? Or that they will visit these sites in the "wrong" order?
- What is the future of the Buddy Reward Program? Starting today, people who use a 21 day link will potentially end their trial after the November release, what will happen to them? And to the invite link senders?
- What about corvettes and the rebalancing of rookie ships?

The idea is to capture the attention of the people that EVE was losing in the first few hours. By giving them a story to cling to, the process of reading instructions and figuring out how this game works becomes a little easier.
What CCP wants to do is draw more people into our sandbox and encourage them to stay longer than they do.
I look forward to trying this out next week. I'm hoping it's decent enough that I'll be happy to spruik the game to all my friends.

http://content.eveonline.com/www/newssystem/media/70628/1/AuraHighlight550.jpg just a bit of nitpicking: This picture shows the wreck as a cargo container. That's not very intuitive. And I take it, the text in this tool tip is just a dummy?

Looks promising.
CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

Very interesting stuff! Can't wait to get my hands on this next week.
I've already cleared a character slot on Singularity in anticipation for this. Will there be another mirror between now and the new NPE going live on SISI?

I'm afraid, these attempts will confuse newbies, as most of them actually read many eve-related stuff before they try themselves.
I.e. now we have several different player-made guides to begin eve and all of them are different due to fast changing core mechanics e.t.c. |

Nice, it looks promising. I'll try for sure. But, this is going to include a Spanish version? Even if is only for the text.
Since you delete the Spanish Tutorial and Channel, our community dont have new players, with the exception of the ones that know english very well; and even so a lot join the American or English Corps; or friends of us.
So, there is going to be added other languages for potencial new Communities and old ones like ours? |

Using the Drifters is probably not a good idea. How many newbies will come out of the NPE thinking they can take on a "real" drifter.
Reality will be a sudden wake up call. |

I will for a chance to try and check this out on TQ, not SiSi when it starts.
But as the Storyline, kinda of holding the hand, involving lore especially by faction....
All i can say to that is ITS ABOUT F-ING TIME. Someone that might know what they are doing might finally be in charge of the NPE, but i will hold any further speculation till i can run through it once myself. |

Who will be able to experience the new NPE? My girlfriend started playing EVE recently and would probably benefit and enjoy the new story. Will this option only be available to accounts created after it goes live? |

I. So only active accounts can get on Sisi. If we have all three character slots already filled, exactly which steps should we go through in order to free up a new slot in order to go through Inception?
II. In the past NPE's could be gone back through by "vets" in order to pick up training in areas they might have bypassed when they first joined or, more importantly, so they know what is not trained in the NPE so they can structure corp/alliance training programs correctly.
a) Is it going to be possible to bypass Inception completely - this for new players that are going to directly join a corporations where they will have training and support?
b) I assume you don't want vets to back-trace through Inception because of the skill injector. Having vets tromp through the NPE is always useful for the above reasons and additional QA. How about vets still be able to back-trace through, but if you don't have the minimum SP that a new player starts off with the mini-injector is not granted? |

I fear that this new NPE will only teach new players that EVE is about quests and story-driven objectives. How do you plan to prepare them for the EVE sandbox ? Won't they feel even more lost than before when they find that nobody tells them what to do anymore ? |

Went on test and noticed the new ship EFT built in thing.
1) Can you make it so you dont load in simulation mode first thing. Rather have it where you click it to activate it. Currently you open it up and it is auto simulation mode.
2) When you buy multi buy. Is there a way to remove items from the multi buy? I might have 10 DC2 and all the guns but need the rest for a fit. Can you make it so you can remove the itmes you dont need and buy the rest. Forcing me to buy it all or nothing is a bit silly. If this is there... then it is not very clear cause I looked for this function and could not find it

Feel free to join us there and share your feedback In short, 1) that shouldn't happen, I'll make sure it's ok. 2) there's an X on each of the items in the multibuy window, where you can remove the items.

To be fair that's true of the entire game.
Eve is like an addiction; you can't quit it until it quits you.

I think this sounds fantastic, as long as it does a good job of teaching new capsuleers how to find opportunities for earning ISK on their own.
My only hope is that the new player does NOT contribute to destroying Drifter ships by attacking them, because right now they are EVE's legendary-tier enemy that many veterans would struggle against... and it's nice for legends to remain legendary! If the new player does attack and destroy, then Sansha would be more appropriate for the story, IMO. But ifour NP doesn't attack and destroy then okay, as long as it's cool :D
Drones. Drones are a means to an end. An end to the ruthless Caldari 'progress' machines. An end to the barbaric 'redemption' proposed by the Amarr. What they see as chaos shall be my perfect order, merely beyond their comprehension.
