So I just join this game like a half hour ago and its laggy and it freezes up and the red dot blew up my ship while I was locked out on the desktop trying to get the prog to open back up and when I came back I look like a frozen pea and don't know what to do.
does this prog freeze often? how do I get another ship? I got 5000 ISK, is that money because it says wallet above it? is that a lot? can I get a good ship for 5000 ISK? How do I do that?
I'm so lost. |

Dock in any station and you'll get another Corvette, then try to continue the tutorial.

The thing you are in is your "pod", it's kind of like a mini-ship your character is in. Your pod goes into any ship you enter and is what you control it from. Your pod will be intact (at least until it too gets popped) after your ship gets blown up in space. ISK is the game currency. The ship you fly right when starting the game is a "rookie ship". I think they might be free if you dock your pod back in the station you came from.

the game freezes very rarely for me, I suggest you look at your settings might need to optimize for performance if you are on old hardware. And as said above you can dock in any station and get a free starting ship.
I suggest you run the basics of the tutorial and then go do the career agents, I think the tutorial leads you to them but if it doesn't press f12 and click the show career agents button. Last time I made a new character I came out of all that with a bunch of ships and around 20 million isk which I consider a pretty good base for trying to figure out what to do next.

Hello and welcome to Eve,
Definitely reset your graphics options and optimize for performance in the 'Display & Graphics' tab of the EVE Online game menu by pressing the ESC key after logging into the game. Lower your Cache Size but keep it as high as your computer can handle so that the game will still be visually appealing. Also you can uncheck the options for Turret Effects, Effects, Missile Effects and Trails to reduce graphics load. There are other options available in the ESC menu to help boost performance so be sure to check out everything.
You can also clear all cache files in the 'Reset Settings' tab. That will help remove little annoying bugs that tend to show up after downloading a game release patch.
Good luck and may you have a long rewarding career here.

Connection issues sometimes, yes. They almost always turned out as being caused by wifi or mobile broadband.
Sounds like you have a graphics driver and / or hardware issue. You may want to check your system.

Sounds like the game is downloading game-assets as you need them. You can make the launcher download the whole game by going into the launcher settings and ticking "download all". It will take some time though.

Help put the "frozen pea" in context:

EDIT: 10 million ISK is not a lot for an established player. That's roughly the bounty reward for destroying ~10 NPC battleships. |

You should keep-up with major patch releases via dev blogs and news:
News - The 119.5 Release Has Been Successfully Deployed!
Dev Blog - PLEX Changes On The Way! Dev Blog - PLEX Rework - Follow up
Scamming newbros is something CCP doesn't tolerate. You could petition it, but because of the small amount, I'd recommend just learning from it.

Dude I'm overwhelmed. It's like just because I want to play this game everyone expects me to know everything like immediately.
Like right now this corporation recruited me and i said okay but they won't help me won't answer my questions and I have no idea how to leave. All I want to do is make drugs with a fart harvester and be Scarface in space. |

You're only a loser if you don't learn from it. Don't feel too bad, OP. If you learn from your loss, it will be a more valuable lesson to you in the long run than what you have lost. PLEX are running about a billion isk right now on the in-game market. You can check prices of things anywhere in the game with one of several third-party tools such as evecentral.com Nobody likes to be scammed, certainly, but please keep in mind that scamming is allowed in this game and very common. You might find it useful to read up on eve scams. Never "buy" / trade window PLEX directly from another player.

If your corp won't answer your questions at your character age, you are right to want to leave.
Right click your character name in chat, scroll down to the bottom of the popup. There should be a question there along the lines of "Quit Corporation?", then it will ask you to confirm that. Confirm that you want to quit, and you're out. You'll be placed in a default corporation for players between employment in player owned corps.
Best of luck.

For example, before buying PLEX, it would have been a good idea to find-out what PLEX was and what it was used for first
As another example, before I shot any ship in EvE, I chose to first learn what the consequences of that action was, as well as how to do it. [When I started, there were no tutorials.]
Jonny Fade wrote:Like right now this corporation recruited me and i said okay but they won't help me won't answer my questions and I have no idea how to leave. All I want to do is make drugs with a fart harvester and be Scarface in space. Ack!! Horrible corp then!
Right-click on your avatar in the chat window, and click on "quit corp". You'll be placed in your default NPC corp.
Optionally, just apply to join another corp instead without first quitting, but you may have to select "drop roles" and wait 24 hours before accepting an invitation to join another corp in that case. Quitting corp avoids having to wait, but will add the NPC corp to your corp history (don't worry about that).
Make sure you are docked while doing this.
Now you know about quitting corps. See, you learned something |

Troll detected. Was a decent attempt, but it fell apart right here. You can't play the ignorant noob and complain about not knowing everything and then turn around and make a reference to one of the more in depth and obscure game mechanics.

Not sure what you're talking about but can you help me get a fart harvester and make drugs? A dude in the game said you can make drugs. I want to make drugs. |

You are a butthole. I Googled "troll n00b eve" and came up with this link:
https://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=649096
and if you look down the line, Bimjo states
"hey OP, look here for your answer, this chap has to post in every thread on the forums, and most of the time he has nothing constructive to say. I call this type of poster a "Useless Troll"ugh"
So you're on my thread because I need help lending nothing to the conversation except being a butthole. You're the troll, butthole. |

You guys know that this is the reason why people quit this game right?
You guys are always so quick to call people trolls and n00bs and whatever else. It's ridiculous. I can tell by the questions he's asking that he doesn't know a freaking thing about this game.
And I knew about Planetary Interaction, gas harvesting and drugs on the first day I joined this game. It gets talked about in the Rookie Help channel a lot and we used to talk about how we wish we had the boosters from EVE in Dust 514.
So I say leave the dude alone, help him out and answer his questions no matter how stupid they are.
Jonny Fade: A "fart harvester" is a gas cloud miner. It's very difficult to create drugs in this game and there is a lot of risk to it. Message me in game, we'll talk about it. |
