Myself I would have entered 0.0 earlier and would not have spent a ton of skill points on science. Also I would have spent a majority of my ISK on T2 BPO's when the lotttery was still going..
I would do just the same. I just enjoy it.

Considering that they have virtually wiped out meaningful solo play...
I'd probably never start playing.

Just wait until winter comes and see what's in store for Empire dwellers. Three words: standings-locked content. If you work for one faction, the other factions will drop standings so fast that you'll be effectively locked from working for them.
Admittedly I've only heard it from one source so take it with a pinch of salt, but it's so insane that it could be true. |

The honest answer for those of us who've been around for over a decade is :
"I wish I'd never started playing".
Regardless of how much fun you've had & friends made, the years of playtime (I mean real-time) and forum whoring is pretty scary if you add it up.
There's an old 90's TV show called Red Dwarf & an episode called "Back to Reality" where they "discover" they've been in a VR game for two years.
I'm 99% sure I've spent more than a year (real-time) playing Eve since 2003 The scary part is some peeps probably have spent more than 2 years (real-time) playing Eve. Oh & I don't mean AFK but active play.
Of course it only looks like "wasted time" when you leave/stop actively playing.
Well played CCP |

I would never have "befreinded" anyone in this game and helped out many others. They will turn around and fk you over the first chance they get for anything from 200mil isk to a quick shiney kill. |

Move to null faster, dip into wh's faster. Do drops faster. I spent a week or two too long doing L4's and incursions, feels like wasted two weeks. Join a corp faster, start using EFT faster, experiment with pve and pvp fits faster... Stop giving 2 fuks about losing experimental derpfits faster. Learn how to fly an interceptor faster.
And other things (faster).

Incredibly doubtful that CCP would do such a thing, but it'd be pretty interesting if they did. Might be the groundwork for that four-way faction warfare they've been talking about for a while.

So far it's the only specific thing I've heard about Winter release and it's something that popped from a random encounter in GTA Online, but as I said it's so insane that could be true. Nobody would make up something like this. |

Clearly I am a bad judge of character, but after spending 2-3 hrs a night with a person in com's for some times a year you'd expect some sort of comraderie. But just look at the crime forum pages and all the long running scams in EVE it is obvious. Cyber bullies and griefers come to eve to thrive. Can't help feel sorry for them though as they probabaly get bullied in RL.

1. Not quit for large chunks of time. Even when I started the money was never a big deal... I should have just kept paying (and skilling) when I wanted to take a year or two off.
2. Focus on research agents from the start. First for the T2 BPO... then for datacores before they became not as profitable.
3. Join a corp way quicker than I did.
4. Get out to Null way quicker than I did.
5. Buy loads of plex early and hold until late.
6. Never spend gift aurum on skins and clothes... because eventually they'd turn into mini-plex.
7. Much more focused skill training. I have lots of sp in stuff on my main toons that are not used (at least not on those toons).
8. Station trading. I didn't even bother looking at it until my latest trip back to EVE (November). I had no idea how semi-passive station trading (every other day updating orders) could rack up significant isk (for me at least). |
