dont know why you think eve newbie experience is crap. i thoroughly enjoyed it.
yes, i was mining a lot but not for a second di i think it was broing. not with rats showing up. loosing my first frigate to npc and all that...
first by myself then picked up by a corp rather quickly. i was gobsmacked when i first parked my imicus next to a megathron and instantly knew, there are things to do and to achieve.
one thing though. to everyone who suggests you train learning skills straight away.. dont do it ! for the first 2 or 3 weeks train whatever you feel helps you get into a ship that you feel comfortable with spending some time in and lets you use the modules you need.
then start training the learning skills.
i mean , what is the point on training weeks on end and still only be able to fly your newbie starter ship.
especially at the beginning skill training can be real sweet instant gratification :)
remember when you were able for the first time to use an rcu and fit an extra gun ? or a cpu co processor to fit an extra miner ? :) or the time you took a rifter out for a spin ? and and and
being a noob in eve rocks !
it is the time from 1m to 3m skillpoints when you are sort of in limbo and kinda half baked that annoyed me.
I say what other MMORPGers told me... I can't make a fact from what I saw because I've only seen one MMORPG - Earth & Beyond - and it's newbie experience was better than I could expect it to be. I've probably started ALT chars more than 10 times just to feel the newbie missions all over.

In my first week I was in JK-FIX (now Querious) hauling bistot. I made 20 million IN MY FIRST WEEK. Join a player corp, they will help you know what skills to train, ships to buy, what to do, etc. Eve is HUGE, there is no way you can be bored in the first week, after a few months after you have a battleship/ achieve whatevr goal you set, and suffer your first real nerf then come back and whine.

i skipped the tutorial mission all together. i had more fun exploring the interface and what not by myself. the help you get from real people is much more detailed than any tutorial can be anyway :)

Thanks for all of your usefull replies guys. I think the main thing that is ****ing me off about this game is how slow paced it is. I have come from a background of twitch based shooters. There is hope for this game though. It definatly has potential for me. I just need for someone to make a game like eve with real time skill based twitch combat. That would be so ******* awsome. Until that day (Or until hell freezes over, wich ever coems first.) I will probably be playing eve.
