it took me a while to find my purchases until l discovered market transactions and locations then setting destinations i always check how many jumps away anything is ever since I set my home station 24 jumps away from any mission/career opportunities (
As a miner/hauler pvp does happen even at early stages but it's not super often and can usually be avoided by warping away to a different asteroid belt
Fun fact - there are three locations in each empire for career agents, and you can complete all of them for the reward ships and modules etc. It's a great way to make coin early in the game + gain standings in all four empires
As someone who has played EVE off and on for about 15 years, in regards to pvp, it's not a question of if, but when. You will be attacked by other players. You might play weeks without a pvp encounter, you may have multiple in an hour. It will happen. However, EVE ships can be insured, and generally pay out a significant amount if your ship is destroyed. But don't let gankings discourage you. It's a fun game and keeps me coming back every couple years.
Well I've been seriously thinking about trying Eve Online and now your video has made my mind up. I'm going to go ahead and start playing the game myself and hopefully you'll keep these videos up. I will follow each and every one cuz I'm sure I'll need all the help I can get. Thanks for the guide keep up the great work!
I played for 10 years and it is hands down the best game I ever played. So many fantastic memories and serious adventures. No other game is quite the same.
I just started today. Thx a lot. That was a great guide and familiarization. A friend told me about the magic 14. It’s worth checking out for any other newbies here
Cheers buddy. I’ve just loaded into this game for the first time. There is a lot to learn but just going with the flow atm. The agent dudes are a great idea. I had a GM message me too just checking in and giving me tips. Never experienced that in a game. Nice of them.
Thank you for taking the time to explain some of the beginner content! I am very interested in playing this and I am looking for some input regarding EVE.
I started today. I've heard about it for the longest time and have been tempted in the past, but yesterday I decided to actually play the game since I got time. I hope you keep making more videos like this for us fellow newbies.
I've got a Top Three Tips for New Players video coming Monday morning =) I think I'll be playing each Saturday throughout November at the very least, and uploading at least 1 or 2 guides per week as I continue to learn about the game!
Saw an ad for Eve and looked good visually so searched YT to see what it’s like, Gameplay & Review, you came up and your run through is good 🤙 i created an account so I’ll give it a go when i can find the motivation to use my laptop. I spend 80% time on iPad and rest on Xbox lately… going through playing games stage in life i suspect 😎
One thing Eve never teaches you is how to see, using your directional scan you'll be able to see that you're almost never alone doing things in space in high sec, low sec, and the more popular regions of null. Directional scan lets you see other players that are too far away to appear on your overview, up to 14 au away (roughly half an earth solar system). There are other things you can see on it, but it's common to apply a filter that only shows player ships and certain other objects, these are included in common overview presets
I just logged into evonline after being away for over a decade I started my character in 2008 and I am completely lost all of a sudden. I have billions in ISK almost 62 million in skill points. I am almost completely lost. I'm going to have to sit and watch this video and so many more. If anybody wants to give me advice or point me towards more videos that would help me get refreshed it would be certainly helpful. Feeling a little bit overwhelmed all of a sudden. But really want to get back into this.
Yeah you'll probably be best suited literally running some of the early tutorial missions to get back into what modern EVE Online is like, and then ease your way back in that way. When you feel comfortable you can switch back to your main.
I recently returned to EVE after having not played for 6 years now. I remembered NOTHING ofc, so my initial reaction was to create a new character, but as soon as i discovered career agents i hopped back on my old character and started doing those instead. Super helpful to get my bearings back around.
Playing since 2008. It's an awesome game. It has a steap learning curve but if you stick around 3 months you'll probably understand it and theres nothing thats really like it.
Been playing since 2012, I am an expert in 5% of the game. The rest I might of heard about somewhere. Eve really is a Sim, find your role in the universe. The new things to learn really are endless it seems.
That's my problem, I played it 3 times and all those times I've never made it to 3 months. Joined a corp once but that wasn't the right fit for me. I never felt fully engaged in it, which is weird because this game should be right up my alley.
@@damius1980 Yes, but its super boring as long as you do not know how it works. Basically every person i know including myself, got hooked after understanding the game. When you make a skill injector every other day and in no time you have access to pretty much anything you need, it becomes really nice.
I’ve just started again! After a 10 year break and It’s true about skills lol I have Drakes, Ravens, all these big ships. And without the knowledge of how to fly and use them, it means nothing! I was like a big dumb oaf flying around in a drake mot knowing it’s full potential
PVP is entirely optional as you need to out yourself in a situation PVP can happen and if you do that, you need to be prepared for it or expect it. It's fairly easy to avoid if you're smart. Been playing 16 years and I'm a carebear so don't typically get into PVP but have opened myself up to it to try it out once or twice. Lost a Hookbill which was sad
@Renfail I have am Aeon and an Anshar somewhere stuck in space. Was in NC. For years and loved supplying the combat zones with ship packs with my fleet of JF. Those were the days. The beauty if EvE is that you can do pretty much anything. Best game I have ever played, bar none.
I remember playing this game when i was pretty young and hated waiting for my skills but now i work 2 weeks straight 12hours a day and then have 2 weeks off. Its like every time i get to my off weeks, i unlock all this new content 😂
Thought about joining Eve a couple years ago. I didn't because i didn't want to be cannon fodder for those who been playing for a decade or more. Didn't know a lot about what you mentioned in this video, might give it another thought.
The career agents take place in so called beginner systems, griefing newbies in these systems are a bannable offence. So as long as you hang out in the career agent systems, you should not see any pvp unless you initiate it yourself or some other dumb newbie decides to attack you to see what happens. When it comes to other systems in hisec, it really depends on being at the wrong place at the wrong time, the exception is bottleneck systems on the traderoutes between major hubs, pirate players hang out there to assault people, but it is usually those with something valuable to steal that is hit, not some newbie in his rookie ship. Though again there are people who grief for the lolz and you could be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Once you go into lowsec, nullsec and wormhole space, the chances for pvp skyrockets and you should expect to be attacked.
hey iv recently found your videos about this game iv been seriously thinking bout playing it heard loads of great stuff about it but wasn't sure how to start so thanks for this its got me more hyped I'm gonna go for it I just dont know yet which path to go down they all look amazing lol and im gonna keep watchin your vids coz im sure im gonna need help keep it up :) new sub to your channel 👍 gonna check out other games uv played aswell 🤘
Just switched over to this game from ark because the politics and general game dynamic are the same but learning the game itself seems very complicated and interesting.
Great vid, thanks. Is it possible to play in the multiplayer space without getting caught up with people trying to kill you. And end up bumping into cool people [by chance] in distance parts of the Universe? Or does that miss the point?
I've been playing off and on since 2007 I'm at the exception of the few times I go through losec I can probably count on my hands number of time I've been attacked by another player
@@Renfail L2 survey rendezvous has been that way since 2020, I love the game don’t get me wrong but I’m objective about it I want to be able to finish missions lol
@Renfail I know I will. Especially since it's a game that really doesn't make you feel like a second job. Plus, the learning curve gives the player a sense of learning something. I know that after a week or two, I'm going to be looking for videos on lore content
Also new players can make acc thru other player invite link and get 1,000,000 skill points what gives u nice boost for skills get done, i choose to get cruiser asap with medium drones, now i need only do missions to earn vexor isk 😂
I love mining but I can only get combat drones which is ok but why wont they let me train mining drones? is it because I play the free alfa only? and I'm pretty nervous about fleeting up or joining factions because of inexperience like in world of warcraft they don't let you join a raid group because of your gear level or damage capability
skimming through the videos, id like to clear a bit of stuff up about the microtransactions, yes you can buy SP packs and plex you can trade for money and skill injectors, thus you can theretically swipe your card and boost yourself into a titan and even get a titan. but then you realise "OMG i dont know what i am doing with this ship" then you get ppl like us tht call our buddies and kill said titan. so in short yea you can do all tht stuff day one as a new player but its gonna turn out badly for you
acer did not have any models with higher specs in the Nitro yet better configuration were in the Nitro description. In the to buy models section they the next higher level graphics card but not available anywhere anyway. $200 more.
So I started playing this game a year ago, got overwhelmed and quit, and just recently joined back. But at the time I had three ships, and when I got back I flew around a bit and one of the ships isn’t showing up anymore when I dock, how would I figure out how to find it? Also I had a bunch of random equipment and I came back and I couldn’t find it in my ships inventory, where could have this gone too?
I ve played eve for som years, do you know some corps from null or wh that recluit membres whith experience in the game, my native language is spanish but i want to change to improve my English skils
1. I think the question about whether is EVE pay to win is determined by how you feel about things like the WoW token enabling people to convert real money into in game regular currency. EVE predated the WoW token for years with its PLEX system allowing players to sell membership (now omega time) for in game currency to other players. 2. Character skills in EVE do provide slight modifiers improving their power level relative to others with the same equipment, but the biggest bonus of skills is their opportunity to use equipment other players cannot. Alpha players train faster and have access to more skills. However part of the trade off is, in addition to meeting the skill requirements, you also need to put more in game currency on the line with expensive gear manufactured by yourself or likely other players. Player Skill will probably win if an omega player and alpha (f2p) are in similar fits. But because an omega player both has faster training and access to skills and therefore modules and ships an alpha player is not eligible to use, they can do certain roles simply unavailable to alphas. I will note however that as stated in the video power level is not really symmetrical for a variety of reasons so even the above is a simplification. Bigger is not always better, like the smaller battle cruisers can be better tanks in PvE than some battleships, and frigates can chase down ships a nothing else that’s not 20x as expensive can trap in PvP.
Here is the ONE AND ONLY advise to all users who think about starting this game: STAY AWAY FROM IT!!! All those fukkaz here just want you to join so they can gank you in the opening regions, cause the game is dead!
This is 100% absolute BS as I've been playing for for more than two months as of this reply and not ONCE have I been ganked. I even just made a video on Where Are All The Gankers? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qCwZdnMkSVA.html
@@Renfailman I appreciate your videos and you being new too. I played Echoes and got to tech lvl 5 back 3 years ago so I’m a little familiar. Followed Capt Benzie for years too his stuff is on point. But I really want to go solo and just be a little space pirate to hit and run maybe grab some loot here and there. If you’ve got any advice on the best empire to join for missile solo I’d be appreciative.
@@Renfail then go to one of the stations where new players do their first AIR agent missions and take a look how they get blown up every day directly at the station.
The game is broken. As once you get above a certain skill level. It doesn't matter if you trained the skills to fly\use something. You will have to pay for a subscription to use them.. Why I left. As I paid to train the skills needed. Only to be forced to continue to pay to use them..
@@Renfail It's not fake. I have damn near every Sub Cap skill in the game to Level 5.. But to use skills above a certain level. You have to pay for a subscription to use them. So don't feed me that line. As I been playing the game since 2007...It's one reason CCP went from 500k players to 50k..As they broke the game selling you everything for short term gain in revenue..It was their undoing.. It's the very same thing that Broke other European Countries games like WoT. That went from 1 Million players to 30k..As they have no idea about human behavior in Business. Why the go Woke, go broke will teach them a lesson.
@@lukienman No.. Paying to train skills to level 5. Then paying again to use them broke the game. Along with introducing Injectors.. It's why Goons left, Killer Bees, R&K and others. As CCP broke the game for short term revenues. It was their undoing.. I'm not including these people had 4-5 alts they paid for or the ones that sold and traded them on the market. That had focused skills for a particular need through the Eve Bazaar. The only way CCP gets back to 500,000+ players base. Is ditch their current business model. As the one they created didn't work. I would add. If they wanted to make people pay. They only had to ditch the Buying Plex's with in game currency. Problem solved. As that was their main issue. People got good at earning ISK to pay for Plex's. Which is why CCP kept driving the cost of Plexs up. As CCP was manipulating the amount of Plax's on the market. To combat 3rd party sits that sold goods for real Money for half the price. Had they done that one thing. They would have put these sites out of business over night. So again. They should have hired someone that understood how Business is run. At least read Thomas Sowell, Basic Economics.
How can you make an "ULTIMATE" Beginners Guide, when in the first 2 minutes you state that you are new to the game. That's called click bait sir and I'm done with you for this transgression.
