Slam	Posted - 2004.04.06 07:47:00 - [3] Edited by: Slam on 06/04/2004 07:48:10 A rumor says that CCP plans to release 10 Jovian battleships to the players with 1 year old subscriptions. Means of distribution will be the logic used in the tech II lottery.

Tyrrax Thorrk	Posted - 2004.04.06 17:21:00 - [11] I started in late march :P Retail may 8th (30 minutes earlier = may 7th) http://eve.klaki.net/
Cabadrin	Posted - 2004.04.06 17:45:00 - [12] Of course if CCP gives away battleships to those people who got onto EVE the day it launched, they'll completely ignore the US people who weren't able to get the game until Launch Day 2 ... and I can think of better ways to do the lottery, like use a truly random number generator (bouncing ball anyone? just drop a bouncy ball throughout a room or use the number of leaves on a tree branch or something). They should give us some kind of nifty tool, like an evaluation copy of the Ship Painter; or release Shiva on that day. ----------------------------------------------- Coalition Kill Board
threeD	Posted - 2004.04.06 17:49:00 - [13] started beta around end of march last year... and started playing in retail on day one... probably after lunch time since I was a proper bum and didn't get out of bed until 1 or 2 o'clock. so anyone got any birthday plans? --- 3D
Negotiator	Posted - 2004.04.06 18:07:00 - [14] anyone who took the jove battleship joke seriously needs to stop reading these forums...can't even imagine how all the other bullcrap that goes on here affects you -)

Wait, whattaya mean it's not true? One year date is May 21st. Eve went retail a little later in the states. Part of the whole SoonTM strategy. -------------- Share the love in the SNIGG Forums
Vegeta	Posted - 2004.04.06 18:32:00 - [16] Edited by: Vegeta on 06/04/2004 18:37:43 First in line infront of SkÝfan in Iceland, morning of May 6th. Was the first one to buy the game. I have one of the 10 t-shirts that were given out to the ten first people who bought the game. Those same people also got an envelope with a letter inside it, all I have to do is fill mine out tand send it to CCP to get one free month of service :D 2005.04.25 16:40:42 combat Your 1400mm Howitzer Artillery II perfectly strikes LawrenceNewton [WARAG], wrecking for 2706.9 damage.
Nostradamu5	Posted - 2004.04.06 20:13:00 - [17] Hey Vegata I'll give 1.5 mil isk for an unlimited unresearched copy of that letter. Stop griping about server instability and go buy an EVE mug! Additionally with the purchase of each mug you will receive two(2) invisible Elves.
Heinky	Posted - 2004.04.06 20:25:00 - [18] I was first in line in front of BT iceland also got the t-shirt and envelope :) Char born 2003.05.06 11:15 no downtime ehh
Uhclem	Posted - 2004.04.06 20:30:00 - [19] I started beta as soon as I became the Eve Online IRC operator, which was shortly after the alpha ended, and enjoyed the retail from day one. Eve put me on a new track in life, inspired me to become a writer, and has now allowed me to work for Gamers Hell as a reviewer as well as a local newspaper as a columnist. I am studying to major in English and minor in Journalism thanks to Hell Gremlin and INO, both I never would have met or joined had I never participated in the community. I owe a **** load to the folks here û oh, and the devs are finally opening the Earth Jumpgate from which the Jove viciously attack, destroying Amarr space.
haggis	Posted - 2004.04.06 21:03:00 - [20] Quote: oh, and the devs are finally opening the Earth Jumpgate from which the Jove viciously attack, destroying Amarr space. Um, how do the jove viciously attack when the earth jumpgate(also known as the evegate) goes back to earth, not the jove's section of space? No? Bit worrying considering you're an eve journalist

No? Bit worrying considering you're an eve journalist That is true. And unless I missed a bunch of updates on the history of the Jove, I still subscribe the popular theory. The Jove are from Earth or at least trade with the Earthlings. I mean, if the Earthlings did come back, theyÆd be 25,000 or so years more advanced - currently, the most advanced people in the Eve galaxy are the Jove, so logic dictates that they became that advanced through some outside means; especially since all the other races exist at about the same level of technology, give or take 100 years.

Yeh CCP give more good stuff to people who played Eve for more than a year,they did made you quite a bit of money didnt they? and they are so pooooooor that they need them new battleships cos they cant aford to buy even frigate! let new players suffer again
Artika	Posted - 2004.04.06 23:21:00 - [23] June 6th 2003 is when my main guy started....and i have been loving everyday since i still look forward to loggin on even though there are ALOT of whiners who always whine about everything they can possably whine about!!! My main concern is that there's a lot of people who take this game way to serousely to the point of overreacting to everything posted or done....the reason i have been loving this game for so long is that i have don't take everything waaaay to serously and that i don't overreact to everything posted or done....it's a game where people can play a massive space sim, go exploring ( well in the beginning anyways) and talk to people around this floating ball of molten rock in space called home This is my first online experince so and i have to admit i didn't think it was possable for people to whine, complain and hell outright lie about things, but i guess that's the one drawback people can do these things when there's no accountablilty for that person But anyways have fun! I have always wanted to play a game that was this open and ccp (mistakes aside) made a pretty damn good game P.S. I KNOW some loser's are going to flame and twist this somehow so i'll just say it now "get a life, it's a game" Artika "No matter how good she looks, some guy is sick and tired of putting up with her crap"
var'ulfur	Posted - 2004.04.06 23:52:00 - [24] ive been here from beta 3 till today use to be patriot-BC a very old online group of players starting with (tacyon the fringe) one of the first online space based games. i enjoy playing this game still today. i just want to say good job to ccp talk is cheap the cost of action is enormus
TimeKeepr	Posted - 2004.04.07 02:30:00 - [25] ah, someone mentioned the fittings of a jove bs? well you might want to have a look at these pics i took several months ago on chaos. http://people.ucsc.edu/~mcorley/eidolon/jove_fitting.JPG http://people.ucsc.edu/~mcorley/eidolon/jove_attributes.JPG
eFitHero	Posted - 2004.04.07 08:43:00 - [26] Has anyone seen a Jove yet? do we have any Jove-a-witnesses in the house?
syndic4te	Posted - 2004.04.07 08:47:00 - [27] Jove invaded stain like in 7/8 months ago, one of them was worth 100 million. --- ---
Gai Daigoji	Posted - 2004.04.07 09:39:00 - [28] Edited by: Gai Daigoji on 07/04/2004 09:46:22 I'm planning on posting a "reminiscences" thread similar to this one on my corporation's forums on the 1st of May: I too will be a year old on that day (and was the eleventh person to log into EVE that morning, if the "players online" was correct), although Gai isn't my original character from day one. The game's had its ups and downs for sure, but I'm still having a great deal of fun playing EVE, and have met some great people during my time here. Here's to another year of fun and frolics - I still think that the future is looking really promising for this game, even though we've all had some serious setbacks with the various problems the game has had. It sure doesn't resemble the game that many of us beta tested over a year ago now. It would be nice if CCP are planning something, in some way. Although I'd rather not see another lag filled event in Yulai Mebbe they could spawn Ark everywhere again, in belts guarded by psychotic NPCs, in memory of the fist few weeks or so of retail? Or have the gate NPC's beefed up so much that you find yourself trapped in the same system for 24 hours until the next tweak Please note that the views expressed above are those of Gai Daigoji and not necessarily those of the JGR corporation.
Jacob Molari	Posted - 2004.04.07 15:20:00 - [29] I really dont try to post here anymore, since I think the mods are for crap. However, to edify the gullible lot, Even if any of you got a Jove BS... could you fly it? Has anyone been trained in Jove Frigate, Jove Cruiser, or Jove Battleship? What's the most you could do? Open a trade window with somebody to show that you had it?
Jehutty	Posted - 2004.04.08 02:49:00 - [30] Personally if I was the first person to ever logg on to Eve I dont think I would want them to give me the ship for any other reason to sell.Imagine having one of 10 Jovian Battleships's (as if that would happen) you would have a few things to worry about like 1 the ammount of people looking at your ship with jealousy and envy.You wouldnt be safe for to long in empire I am sure someone would declare war just to take your nice pretty ship away in a big ball of fire.2 I would be worried about the crazy 1 of the 10 who would want to make his the only one in Eve huntin ya down and takin yer ship away once again.If I was to get one selling it would be the first thing on my mind.I would rather stick around in descretness.The less everyone knows about ya the better ya are in EvE,But that is just my opinion and like *******s er one has one!!!! No matter how big No matter how strong It always boils down to name calling !!!
Shredder	Posted - 2004.04.08 14:07:00 - [31] I reckon i was one of the first people on the server on day one, it was about 9.00 in the morning, reckon i was one of the first 10 or so in

Swift	Posted - 2004.04.08 15:24:00 - [34] Edited by: Swift on 08/04/2004 15:26:10 Wow, I remember logging on release and literally being one of the first Amarr into the game - I looked in the newbie corp channel to find it empty except for one guy that logged in shortly after me. I had a short conversation to him about how we should enjoy this moment, because it wasn't going to last too long. An empty EVE world untouched by player hands. And sure enough it didn't - the big bang occured and here we have it, EVE its players and the cogs of the community running the game turning away. :) Nice to think back and see the vast emptiness before the madness :P ----- --- 'The truth about low sec space is that it reveals humanity - the 'essence' of all the races, in its purest form. A place where Concord no longer polices or protects, 'human nature' thrives in all its distilled destructive self-serving glory.

Jehutty	Posted - 2004.04.09 00:06:00 - [35] I remember playin Freelancer online and went to a web page trying to find where they sold certain ships and it redirected me to the EVE webpage and I was like this is freakin Freelancer looked at it for a while was like hmm k0ol l0okin game.Next day went to the mall and it said NEW release I was like hell yeah I joined when there was only 5 members in my Newb Corp....Asked for help and they laughed saying ya you givin it......took me 3 months to join a good corp Crice Corp helped me from beggining till now GREAT people all good freinds and nice as hell to everyone 'cept those who **** us off!!! No matter how big No matter how strong It always boils down to name calling !!!
lash	Posted - 2004.04.09 01:28:00 - [36] hmm lets see, played in beta started in phase 4, so.. lets see, that was around late november early december of 2002 I believe. I started right around the time they switched over the beta website, and updated that. So roughly a year and 4.5 months or so... Lord, has it really been that long... -------------- "You ever hear of the Seattle Seven? That was me. And, um, six other guys."

When I loged on within 1 second of the servers going up (yes i spammed the login button) and when i got in my char was the only character in my school and on the map. Of course the map was probably laggy but I'm pretty certain that I was one of the first 1-10 people in the game. My character was certainly the first in the school \o/
Morbidus V	Posted - 2004.04.09 12:04:00 - [38] Edited by: Morbidus V on 09/04/2004 12:06:52 I am pretty sure I was the first person logged into eve (after my beta -1 days). I remember quite clearly spamming the log button and got in just as the server was coming up. Didn't see anyone else in my school either. I have not played steady since then, but I still have the same character. Come on everybody! Be cool and l337 and join our group of hundreds who claim to be the first person logged into eve. I promise it will make you seem filled supa uberness, and all your posts from here on in will be regarded as the words of wise, and rightly powerful forefathers. You too can roxors and be the ultimate anti-noob. Be the first on YOUR block to tell the eve community just how much of a vet you truly are. I promise everyone will berate themselves for being such a newb in your eyes. Maybe you managed to log in BEFORE the beginning of EVE space/time? If so, please tell us about the formation of the universe and other such questions of eve-life. Watch this space for fantastic stories from players who were making millions mining ark before ccp even started programming! :)

Uhclem	Posted - 2004.04.09 12:16:00 - [40] Edited by: Uhclem on 09/04/2004 12:18:52 Wow, several people were the first to log on, congratulations. Does anyone remember the alpha or very early betas? They should have kept Eve as a space death match, especially considering weÆd still all fear the Waterbuffalo Kwai.
