o7 I know I’m a few years late, but I still wanted to say thank you for this breakdown. I was losing about half of the cans because I just didn’t understand the logic of the game and I’m so paranoid in WH space that I was rushing too fast to learn. Since I watched this breakdown a few times I’ve gone from losing half the cans to rarely losing any of them and I absolutely love the minigame now. Thank you again, you’ve made me a very happy explorer!
i know this is 4 years old now but just came accross it. your talking about before 8 its bait? i've have plenty that were finished before 8 with some cores even being the first node i clicked.
26:00 Take the least amount of "unsafe" nodes ! By coming from the right we go trough 2 unsafe nodes before being protected by the rule of six, but going to the left of the screen will get you 3 unsafe nodes before being protected by the rule of six.
Saw this video 2-3 yrs ago and now that i got back to the game adter a 2yr break its a great refresh - (also why no comments allowed on the mid spawn vid?)
I have only had about 4 hacking minigames (out of many hundreds) where the core was next to the spawn. It is extremely rare and surprising. The 8 node rule of thumb is spot-on, though! Your percentages of tools and defense spawns from white nodes "feels" about right too. However, I have really leaned away from opening white nodes unless I'm desperate, because it "feels" more like 75% of the time it is a defense node. Also, if I am desperate, I am probably about to fail the hack anyway, so it is unlikely I will find anything useful regardless.
Hi, you've reminded me how inteligent eve players may be. This is a awesome video. Is there any chance that you could compile all the charts and ilustrations and post it somwhere? It's hard to scroll throu the video while hacking in 0.0 and there is a lot to remember about.
As an analyst by trade, this was a quality video. I main exploration on my primary character and have been giving out advice to corp members on how to get through the hacking game based on my experience. This is going to push my ability to the next level and give the newcomers a fighting edge, great content.
Just relax, be at ease like at a campfire with friends, then just be yourself... selves that are not our self are what interest most people in a producer, NOT a fake video persona, those are fine for meme and fart joke videos. Content most people want to see long term, has a real person in it, who makes us feel like they are relatable and friendly. You have that I think, you just need to calm down and let it out. Thanks for the explanation, I have watched 16 tutorials before this one... this is by far the most confident I have felt in my hack understanding.
Lot of information, appreciate the effort. Delivery was rough to listen through though. Ums and uhs really distracting. Just an observation. About to go check the midspawn vid 👍
there's also those lower HP firewalls. I tend to break them straight up - opens a lot of map and generally seems to be worth it (unless you hit restoration, suppressor in next 2 hits)
when landing restoration, if there's other defense systems, do NOT hit the wrench as activating it counts as an additional turn (will heal up def systems)
If you calculate the spawn point as the 1st node, then it is before 9 and not 8. That's what the image's showing @ 6:05. I'm nitpicking here. It's a great guide nonetheless. Tyvm, dankjewel!
Yeap.....this IS the type of video i was looking for. I dont want people to explain what hacking is or fits while speaking slowly as if im mentally challenged. Get to the point, gimme the meat and potatoes. This video gave me some dessert as well.
Hi, I'm well. I've found that whilst I enjoyed doing the analysis, coming up with theories and reverse engineering the minigame, I did not enjoy the process of writing a script, recording and editing (I really hated editing). On top of that my laptop got stolen at one point, which contained all my slides and raw video footage.
Eve is al lang geen spel meer waarin korpsen als teams spelen. Iedereen is gewoon geil voor steeds meer geld of geil om kleine spelers kapot te maken. Communicatie is voor de kont. Iedereen doet zijn eigen ding, maar niets wordt gedaan als een team. En terwijl kleine spelers wat geld proberen te verzamelen, worden de spelverslaafden met hun 5 tot 10 accounts van welke duur dan ook rijker. Ik ben blij dat ik lid ben van de FuelRats in Elite Dangerous. WIJ HELPEN DE SPELERS NOG STEEDS. Wat kan alleen met geld in EVE.
