CSM ARE AN AUTISTIC PILE OF SHIT

>Is it too late to start playing EVE?
No

>Can I play the full game without paying for it?
Yes, Eve is F2P with some restrictions and you can earn enough money ingame to get a subscription.

>I want to play EVE, what should I do?
Get 250,000 free Skillpoints by using any referral link (chaining them with friends works best).
If you have no friends create two accounts and refer yourself, you'll need an alt anyway.

>Now what?
Do the Tutorial then the Career Agent missions; they give you ISK, ships, skillbooks and teach you basics. Talk to players and try to find a corp. The game is only as boring as you are.
No, really. Find a corp.
You don't want to be that guy.

>HMl Orthrus
lol no one is going to use this. With how HAM's work, they get almost no real bonus to range.

With how long HML's are you're going to have stupidly long range that you can't even target out to.

Hilarious that instead of nerfing the orthrus themselves they get around it by nuking its weapons. Same with RHML barghests. torps too short to benefit, cruises already too stupidly long to matter

so fit some target range increases

are you saying it would be better if it had less weapon range?

>less weapon range
swap all that useless extra range for some improved application or DPS. 5.6% damage isn't anything worth while.

>instead of every other missile ship
this is a direct nerf to RHML anything. Your RHML raven is gonna suck and its not going to get magically better nor incentivize you to use torpedos over them.

>250km cruise missile bhargest
useless
>30km torp bhargest
kek

how about nerfing RHML and making the desired cruise missile system actually worth using. Torpedo launchers still use fuck tons of CPU that discourages people from using them, not to mention their AWFUL application.

Make RLML's a niche weapon for small targets without being able to kill cruiser targets nearly as easy. Reduce their ammo size from 20 to 15 then jump the rate of fire by 5%. This will neuter their ability to kill cruisers easily due to the reload but still have enough total burst damage to haze 1-2 frigs before reload. Exemplify it as an anti-frigate role. Make the RLML's also have less range than HAM's to stop the bullshit kiting from 40km+ as well.

Same with torps, reduce RHML range enough that it becomes strictly an anti-cruiser weapon, not an all around desired weapon. Torps need to have CPU reduced and application increased so they can stay competitive. Also increasing their range would make them more effective battleship weapons as many other battleship weapons on their short range have as much or further range.

TLDR:
>reduce RLML range and ammo size, bolster it as an anti-small ship weapon only. Neuter its ability to haze cruisers better than other medium size missile systems
>increase range on HAM's so they're better than RLML's
>same with battleship tier systems. RHML should be anti-cruiser only, neuter ability to haze other ships better than the battleship weapon systems

you realise you don't need to sit at your maximum missile range vs stationary targets, right? that's all that number is

they are worth using

>but still have enough total bust damage to haze 1-2 frigs

any cruiser weapon with frigate application is overpowered. if you want to be anti-frigate, fly a frigate or destroyer
>>
>>172753190
Torps have really really short range, outside of stealth bombers of course. Torpedo range is as long as HAM range and thats not right. Other weapon systems take on longer range the higher the tier. See cruiser blasters vs battleship blasters, cruiser autos vs battleship auto's etc.

Torps (outside of stealth bombers) also have really bad application. that 50% bonus that stealth bombers get is ridiculously effective, no batteship gets that except for the typhoon but it only gets HALF that. I'd say reduce stealthbomber application bonus and exchange it for better torp application overall.

You're sort of right, Cruises don't have many issues, they apply fairly well for what they are, much better than torps, have ridiculously long range (left over from the days of cavalry ravens) that you can't even target out to so woopty do. They also have much better fitting than torps so they're often used on battleship missile fleets.

I think RHML's are still oppressive to cruises and torpedoes purely because they have much better application. Enough range to be usable in every facet, and have great DPS.

>if it had massive lock range and you could use extra weapon range
Fuck no I wouldn't, HML's still have ass application that CCP won't acknowledge after their double nerf from 2011 and 2013 again.

>yes, torpedoes need their own changes. this doesn't mean there's anything wrong with these nerfs though
It means nerfing one thing doesn't incentivize people to use something that was already notoriously shit. You're running into the territory that all the solutions are shit and no one would use the ship regardless.

You're fucking retarded

They're ONLY good on the cerb because the cerb gets massive damage bonuses to them, thats it.

>muh fun "random" pvp
you can't come up with a reason why they're good so you just default to meaningless bullshit adjectives because you can't come up with a situation outside of cerbs where they work.

>damage application is decoupled from your damage mitigation
so fucking never? HML's always burdened by poor DPS and poor application is fun? The range doesn't even mean shit when they can extend so fucking far outside your range that its worthless, except obviously on platforms that CAN take advantage of them via the fucking CERBERUS

Really? So umbrella terms like "fun random pvp" isn't one of the most bullshit obfuscation you've used so far? This isn't even objective in the slightest. This is how desperate you are to defend a shit weapon system that only works on one ship that gets all the bonuses to male them work well.

Why do new players need so much handholding? When I started in 2004 the tutorial handed you a rookie ship with a mining laser and told you to get to work. Two weeks later I killed my first battleship solo in an Incursus. 2 months into EVE I made my first billion (that's more like 10-20b in 2017 Isk) with escrow scams.

I didn't ask anyone for help, there were no ez mode fitting tools or tutorial videos. I learned the game mechanics, made my own setups and farmed Russian haulers in Curse.

because the video game industry is catering to a wider audience to increase their profits, which means making games "accessible" to them, and thus a lot "hey, here's how you have fun" bullshit

give people a sandbox and they don't know what to do with it because there's no quest marker on their screen with a guy screaming "RAMIREZ, GRAB THAT ROCKET LAUNCHER AND PRESS R1 TO FIRE IT AT THE BIG RED BADDY!"

It also shows how useless other battleships are long before the machariel became popular.

Ships like the abaddon have NO utility highslots, no number of mids to help like the machariel does. Same with the maelstrom, apoc, etc. Few ships have utility mids and highslots like the dominix does which are super valuable for things like scram chains for resisting booshers, neuts for neuting enemy logi or other ships, etc.

Battleships largely haven't been touched in many many years which leaves them high and dry for this kind of thing. Hopefully CCP has a good balance pass and makes some of these otherwise useless T1 battleships useful again for fleet applications

Also capless weapons are super valuable in this meta

You can't bash a fortizar with any sort of cap weapons nor support a tank with any cap based tank. The fortizar neuts are so powerful that even with the signature radius scaling they neut like a truck.

Not bring a fucking active hardener tanked shield fleet to kill a fortizar

>>172781040
This is why citadels are poorly designed. The only answer is Machs
>>
>>172781114
CCP doesn't even give any real hard counters

You can't neut the fortizar, the bombs have 20k EHP so you can't firewall them, you can't target them either and you can't out run them because they go 2km/s

if you CAN out run them the fortizar can 90% web you, TP, Jam and Neut you with its own neuts (not the same as its neut bombs) and kill you
>>
>>172781283
Oh yea and if you're gonna bash them with capitals you can only bring dreads, you can't bring carriers because the point defense system will kill all your fighters instantly.

You also can't bring capitals that use capacitor for guns, so basically only the pheonix and nag are able to bash fortizars
>>
>>172781451
point defense is fucking retarded, they should just remove it
>>
>>172781594
Also if you bring a torpedo pheonix, the point defense system will kill your torpedos if you're too far away and give time to the fortizar to destroy them. Capital torpedos are THAT slow.

Also Capital torpedoes have such bad application that a fortizar speed tanks them

>>
>>172781857
The point defense system is like a smartbomb so the fortizar can kill things like drones, fighters, and even missiles

Also the capital torpedoes have really really really bad stats for application. A stationary leviathan can also speed tank Capital torpedoes from a pheonix
>>
>>172781937
it's fine when they don't apply fully to a ship, that's how missiles are supposed to work
>>
>>172782073
oh man is it 2008 again? did the pheonix go from really good last 2 years to being really really bad again?

I remember when a slow boating Archon going like 60m/s could negate ALL torpedo damage from a phenonix.
>>
>>172782073
But that is exactly how they work. It's the same with normal rage torps.
>>
>>172782205
the only way you negate all damage is if the missile doesn't hit. we are talking about structures, not ships. a structure should not mitigate any damage from anything
>>
>>172782073
You know its bad when a fucking Poco, titan and even a fucking fortizar can speed tank Capital torpedoes

>>172782294
They used to do zero damage to a slowboating capitalship, thats pretty much negating all damage

rage missiles are not supposed to just be more damage, they're supposed to be more damage vs bigger/slower targets. so in a sensible game that would be structures and I guess supers

I don't really know how to balance capital missiles and tracking when half of them go 0m/s
>>
>>172782294

A Poco speed tanks a capital torps. You lose tons of fucking damage to it. Meanwhile other dreads have no problem hitting poco's, Pos's, or other capitals

The faction torpedoes do less damage on paper but apply way better. Rage torpedoes do more damage on paper but have such ass application that the faction torp will do more damage in actuality because it doesn't suffer from massive DR due to ass application.

So yes, rage are SUPPOSED to do more damage, do they? Never

I remember someone here did the math where he put 3 bonused Republic Fleet Target painters from a Huginn onto an archon going 75m/s with 3 trimarks and 2, 25000mm plates. The Pheonix rage torps did way less damage than the Faction Torps did

>>172782838
>do they? Never

you're supposed to use tackle and shit if you want to apply missile damage better. complaining that they aren't just a flat upgrade is really retarded, if that's what you're doing. I can't tell
>>
>>172782948
>use tackle and shit
the rage torps suffer massive DR and always do less damage than the faction torps. The Rage torps are SO FUCKING BAD that a stationary leviathan can speed tank them.

Its not about using tackle, webs or paints because its not enough

3 fucking republic fleet target painters on an archon can't get the rage torps to do more damage than the faction torps

jamming/damping the enemy or some of the logi, warping off when he broadcasts you, and then coming back and doing it again and again is much more helpful than you might otherwise think.

the goal in a fleet should not be ctrl+click on the broadcast window and f1 and hope you aren't targeted. the goal is to fucking win the fight.

>the goal in a fleet should not be ctrl+click on the broadcast window and f1 and hope you aren't targeted. the goal is to fucking win the fight.

yeah I'm sure warping in and out and damping someone for 10 seconds out of every 60 seconds is helpful

meanwhile vigil master race doubles the tracking and lock speed of everyone on the primary and has easy 100km range

performing way worse than the machariel.

The machariel has:
capless guns (a big deal when fighting on fortizars or even citadels in general)
5 fucking mids, no need for a cap booster so you can fill the mids with all the ewar you want
7 fucking lows, enough for all the tank or damage you could possibly want.
high agility, aligns like a battlecruiser
high speed, warps like a cruiser

>>172793753
No the machariel does more damage than the abaddon

That's just something high SP players with all 5 skills tell newbies. LVL 2-3 with LVL 4 in the actually important skills (ie ship/cap/hp/damage skills) is fine.
And if you're new there's nothing wrong with flying a BC with lvl 3 battlecruisers or whatever. Just know your limits and don't settle for leaving it at 3.

So how is signature radius vs. explosion radius calculated? Like, if I hit a 200m sig radius ship with a 400m explosion radius will it do exactly half damage, or is it more complicated than that?
>>
>>172803780
it's much more complicated. and it's two relevant stats for the weapon and the target - sig radius, velocity, explosion radius and explosion velocity

EVE isn't "fun". If you play it for "fun" YOU are the problem - the cancer - the aids - the cyst - that NO single person in New Eden wants. Only 1% of the community play the game right. Fuck off with your stupid forced meme shit trying to justify this shit fucking game, I make so much ISK/hr and sell it RWT - upward of thousands per month. What have you done with your life LOL?

I was under the impression that no high sec data or relic sites had rat spawns, but I just lost my first ship in one. Was hoping my first ship loss would be in pvp, not against npc's. Couldn't even warp away from them before getting one shot. Live and learn I suppose. Luckily I was able to go back and grab all the stuff from my wreck. Great loot too, tripled my total isk from that one place despite the ship loss.

sorry for blog posting

>>172808257
Yep thats what it was. I'm guessing it was the exploding can that got me and not the rats, I went down instantly in one hit. I should have paid more attention to the name of the place. I just assumed it was like the other data sites I'd done before.

So what's the deal with Providence? Is the whole NRDS thing legit?

Kinda. They do honestly try to run it that way, but if you've roamed/acted suspicious/violated one of their eleventybillion arcane rules/pissed off a powertripping director, be prepared to be set red without warning. Of course you can sometimes get un-set by just asking nicely in their diplo channel.

Having flown with provibloc and against, the rank and file are pretty nice, mostly genuinely helpful types just looking to have fun. The high-level leadership is filled with some of the most unpleasant assholes you can imagine.

unironically, yes

before you go there, check your character's name on http://kos.cva-eve.org/ it's their Kill on Sight checker. most of them are generally NRDS, but a bunch of alliances ,corps, etc are KoS, so by being affiliated, you'll be KoS too

>>172859918
they were created as a way for CCP to be more transparent after they were caught manipulating shit behind the scenes for their buddies in nullblobs

only, turns out CSM is a popularity contest and most people who get in are (surprise) null blobs, or meme faggots who bounce corps around to attention

and as a fun benefit, CCP goes ahead and leaks insider info to the CSM, who share it with their null blob friends

so it's essentially the same bullshit that happened before, only we know who they're giving leaks to this time

At the end of the day.. RLML are not op by any chance.. u can barely kill a properly tanked vexor in an orthrus

properly fit thoraxes can solo tank orthrus no problem. Hell an exequror rep fit can kill orthrus and tank its dps no problem.

What you have are legions of idiots in **** fits hitting approach and mwd right at you and they complain op when they die.

but once again CCP has decided to take a dump on caldari lol.. caracal will be entirely useless... what it gonna be like not even 200dps with reload?

You wanna fix op? Vexor, Algos, Tristan all top of their meta.. for years..

You don't it's, bait. If you see someone go suspect in highec, you are supposed to ignore him 99.5% if the time because it's some guy suspect baiting. Never engage suspect baiters because he probably has 60 niggers in neutral logi coming up to back him up.

I was in a provibloc alliance for 3 days, 3 weeks into starting eve.

Flying around with a pal in northern low sec, who spent a lot more time playing than me.

He likes to try and smash gate camp fleets in as small numbers as possible.

Had a good weekend with him, tackling in a shit fit atron and getting blown up, basically acting as bait, while he popped in with whatever he fancied and gets a couple kills.

Got kicked from the alliance for flying with reds.

I'm sure it makes perfect sense to some, but to me it was nonsense.

What balances out armour vs the benefits of shields? It seems like range dictation is the most important factor in this game, as without the appropriate range you won't apply at all, and shields have the clear advantage with that.

having more tackle mods than the other guy is another kind of range control. if I have a -60% stasis web and you don't, I don't care if you have 3% higher base speed

and the other guy didn't mention invulns, which are a big thing with shield tanking that makes it usable on big ships. on small ships, medium extenders are strong, and on big ships, large extenders are sort of weaker than plates, but you can use invulns which give you mad resists

there really isn't much of a reason to use anything above a BS+ unless you are in a large alliance and need back up for killing caps. 80% of the fighting happens in cruisers and below the other 19% in BCs and the 1% in caps

The moros is shit
>>
>>172891871
The fact that the moros will cap itself out is a huge fucking disadvantage. You land at 37% cap and have to immediately start cap boosting OR you have to drop with cap mods already on which means you're in a touch spot in the middle of siege especially when your guns will cap you out if you don't. Meanwhile the nag doesn't have to do any of this. It can drop, siege and fire effortlessly

Can someone explain to me Omega accounts, with respect to skill training speed please?

In particular, my old account is alpha, and going at 2700 because there's some shit untrained that alphas can do, but has a cybernetics V and good implants cos it's an old account. The game claims that omega will double my train rate. If I omega it, will it really train at 5400 sp/hr, or is there some other kind of bullshit to do with brand new accounts training at half rate?
>>
Omegas train as quickly as everyone always has trained, alphas train at half speed and whatever is saying you get 2700 as alpha is wrong.
>>
>>172900758
2700 is the rate you would get omega. Your training speed is half of that. I'm guessing you're looking at it through EVEMON which is wrong for alphas
>>
>>172899085
>how is that ? can i go in nullsec/wormholes yet and explore shit ? i'm interested in colonizing planets too
You can do that with 1m SP or 100m. It doesn't take long to train the skills necessary to scan down wormholes or do PI, the main difference is the other stuff you'll be able to do while there. If you plan to live in nullsec you might, for example, want to afk rat in a Vexor Navy Issue, but that requires a lot of drone skills. You'll still be able to live in nullsec without doing so, but you won't have that opportunity available to you to make money that other players have, so you'll have to do so in other ways.

>>172900758
Whatever is telling you you're training at 2.7k sp/hr is lying. Omegas train at the same speed characters have always trained at, while alphas train at half speed. If it's some sort of third-party program telling you that it likely hasn't been updated for alphas.

Oh well i guess it was at least fun...i forgot to ask in corp. what dread fit is good enough to kill a dread? Can a carrier do it? Can a carrier+non carrier assists do it? I guess corpmate was artillering him outside of his tageting range...wonder if he could survive his dps is he was in it.

What do you mean scalping?

I tried using ingame corp finder but it's kinda shit: i select "nullsec only" and it gives me "hisec-only" corps as result.

>first google result on "eve SRP" : SRP is killing eve
Heh...
I mean...i lost like 5 ishtars so far, it sucks but at least 3 were my fault so it's not like anyone should or would care about replacing them for me. And SRP looks like PVP-only thing, no one cares about ratter losing anything he owns.

Aka i joined too many retarded guilds in wow when i was yong(er) and those guilds unironically "trying to kill first\second boss of easiest raid today" week after week but i couldn't join any other guild because they were playing when my dad comes home and if he saw me on PC he would beat me.

We have fleet sometimes...but i don't understand what it's for. And yea losing ishtars is retarded...but i guess i at least farm money fastet enough to not me in red. I lost 3 of them because i was just stupid (literally though "okay i can walk away for 1 minute" and ended up being away for 10 and let frigs web me), 1 to lol carrier spawn and 1 because my ship just stopped for some reason.

And i mean, you people saying "find a corp who is friendly to noobs" but really who gives a fuck about them? They probably just want to "help learn basics" by "just learn logistic ships to 5 for starters" or "be a scout for the time being". Expecially to someone who is not intersted in pvp as main activity...i've come to believe that everyone hates carebears and doesn't care about what happens to them because there's 100 more of them anyways.

How in the fuck have you made it far enough into the game that you are flying an Ishtar, yet can't kill webbing frigs, can't pick a reasonable corp, and can't understand why literally everyone wants more bears and rookies, because it provides isk and content for the actual corp members.

Are you talking about the trailers?

It was CCP's kike plans of scamming their players by introducing mini-patches (which in their words would've been """"better""""). What they also did was to not tell the players that the sole reason they're doing it is so they don't waste money on the tradition of making a cinematic trailer after every large patch.

Long story short, average online players dropped to such low levels that they instantly reverted. Turns out that the game itself is shit and cannot sustain itself without CCP dumping huge amounts into dishonest ad campaigns.

My char is from 2008 but i didn't played a lot, i tried to get in it on and off and just ended up "buy a year of sub and make a queue".
I CAN kill webbing frigs, it's just that you can't kill frigs if you decided to afk for several minues...because drones don't focus frigs automatically.

I know im retarded, i tried to join several corps but they said "uh, you know, no" and this one is the only one that accepted me so im kinda scared to leave.

>>172946487
Literally only clearing belts over and over. If you're ratting and it's not 20+ belts in your system you can just do a check between every site\two\whatever your clear speed is. I think faction spawns can be killed easily and for officers you need to autistically scream about it in corp chat and then be ready to steal his wreck.

if you don't let your free players play most of the game from the outset, they won't want to spend their money on it
instead they'll just dick around (without spending ANY money) until they're bored of grinding
and then they'll move on to something else that tickles their brain's pleasure center a little better
something that feels like a game from the beginning, as opposed to an advertisement you get to click
it's like these game devs have never researched how to addict people to a product

Yeah, I think the newbies that quit are the ones that join shitty WE DO EVERYTHING 20 man corps and those that try to grind a plex with solo exploration but end up getting farmed by lowsec gatecampers and WH griefers.

The help channels are filled with terrible advice too.

So when is CCP going to filter inactive members from corp counts? Because it makes their corp finder utterly fucking useless

Was it the hacker known as 4chan?

>>172974940
They probably can't. You can't tell the difference between a character in a corp thats an alt of another guy in corp and just a member that doesn't play anymore

>Crow gets a bonus to light missile and rocket explosion radius, missiles which already have explosion radiuses smaller than any ship

>how does the missile damage formula work
>>
>>172983490
Drone duty m8, has your FC ever tasked you with that role? are you even in a corp?
>>
>>172983582
Clearly you're the one that doesn't know, not >>172983490

The formula divides the target's signature radius by the explosion velocity of the ship and if the value it returns is greater than 1 it just uses 1. So if you're shooting a 40 sig radius ship with 40 explosion velocity light missiles reducing your missile's explosion velocity further doesn't increase your damage.

>>172983728
Acolyte I sig radius: 25m
Rocket base explosion radius: 20m

Unless you're using rage rockets or light missiles even against drones it doesn't do anything.

I really like it when they show you the concepts and shit it makes me feel stupid and uncreative but it's nice to look at

Ivana know what they're thinking with the pirate ship rebalance? What's being changed? Also, weren't they rebalanced already during the last effort a couple of years ago when they balanced everything?

You can have higher sig than the explosion radius and not take full damage retards

I am now the proud owner of a stratios, where do i go with it? Im assuming its good at hunting in wormholes but would nullbab VNIs be better to target cause wspace is ded?

>>172989476
Buy extractors and pretend you have injectors
>>
>>172990070
i'm thinking that since i made 10b i can make 50b

so why buy injectors now when i could buy a character?
>>
>>172990209
Because injectors let you shape a new character of your creation to exactly how you want. Using a bought character feels like sloppy seconds in so many ways
>>
>>172989556
you'll get reamed in w-space by blingfits and small gangs

go gank horde VNI ratters or something
