>Can I make enough ISK to PLEX during the trial?
If you have to ask, you can't do it.
>I just started, what should I do?
Do the Opportunities then find the Career Agents & run all of their 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.
>Is it too late to start playing EVE?

How much longer before it pops, and who's gonna be left holding the bag?
I'm surprised there's enough people buying to keep the price propped up at 10m isk, desu.
But there's no way the legitimate demand is going to keep it up there. I'm just wondering when the speculation's going to turn into SELL SELL SELL
>CODE.
>>127098808
The sites are going to stop spawning soon. And I think it's actually today. It won't take long for pvpvers to eat all that QZ.
>>127099050
Eventually the price is going to increase, since it doesn't get replaced except by these sorts of events, but the volume increased like a thousandfold.
Going from ~15,000 across all regions per day, to ~1,000,000 across all regions per day. That's about a 4 year supply dumped into the market so far (nevermind what hasn't shown up yet) and the price only dropped by half.
Unless the majority of the buying happening right now are people stocking up for the next year or more for themselves, I got a feeling it'll just take a few people getting antsy and going into sell mode for that price to plummet another few million isk.

No its more about the fact that you have enough autism to give a shit. Please succesfully explain why buying cave story is hurting anyone and I might believe that you are not missing a chromosome
>>127136347
You're supporting a bad business practice. Better think about how many people that directly and indirectly hurts, than about trying to come up with insults.
I can just smell that you're 100% clueless on the issues of Cave Story and Cave Story+, and are just acting contrarian because you think I have something against your favorite furrygame.

Yeah, I am clueless on the issue because unlike you, I don't go around sucking dicks of indie developers and luring up my ass with whatever drama they try to stir up for publicity.
Good fucking riddance on whatever that indie dev fucked up with. If this is "bad business practice" then I'll just keep doing what I'm doing because honestly I don't give a fuck about whatever business practice bullshit you're talking about.

>>127137860
tl;dr: Cave Story is a freeware game by an indie Japanese developer. Cave Story+ is "le improved version" of that game published by a third party(with minimal additions, some of which are against the spirit of the original game), which is being sold for money on steam.
Play the original game and see for yourself what the fraud is.

just because a company says "hey, we've invested a lot of time and money developing this game, let's see if we can make some returns on all this investment"
christ, not only are you autistic, but you're also a fucking faggot who just asks for free handouts
and here i thought there was some legit drama going on behind the scenes, but no, it's just some faggot crying about how his parents allowance doesn't give him the $5 needed to buy a game from a developer who basically gave out a free game, and then improved up said free game and now wants to make some money to support themselves
what the actual fuck
>>127138715
Well this is a general about an autistic game, your expectations shouldn't be that high...

you're right, i expected too much
>>127138715
You clearly didn't understand it.
>just because a company says "hey, we've invested a lot of time and money developing this game,
The company (dev) that invested time and money into the game isn't getting anything, because a different company is selling his game with their own spin.
You two-three need to pay more attention to the issue itself, than to ways to insult the other party. I'm not the pretentious one here, you are. You are trying so hard to look cool in /dog/ by calling other posters autistic and act outraged, so much that that you're missing the actual subject matter.

No you gave a bunch of baseless rumors about something and what seems like pure speculation. I have no idea why you think you are not coming off as a complete and utter retard, like seriously, if I meet someone in person that argued in the same way as you are at the moment I would assume the person had a serious mental illness.

Your shit seems about as baseless as moon landing hoax theories, especially when you are all talk and autism. Why should I lookup some retarded autistic thing because it spergs you?
>>127140959
>Why should I lookup some retarded autistic thing because it spergs you?
Why indeed, you should've just gone on your merry way and not talked shit without facts to back it up.
>>127141404
do you get off on being a retard online or does it just come naturally?
>>127141404
See this is the point where I tell you I haven't said anything in the matter in reality and you are the one talking shit while not linking to any credible source, but instead you seem to be a memer or a shitposter with downs, so can you take up a trip so I can filter you?
>>127141478
Ask your mom how I get off.
>>127141569
Anything you want proven is readily available by googling (names of companies, devs, differences between the original and the Cave+ scam, prices). I'm not going to look it up for you because you can do it yourself.
If you had any interest in this argument, you would look it up yourself. Don't pretend you're right if you're to afraid to confirm it.

Your claim was that there was bad business practice. I see a game rereleased with updated visuals and score while retaining the option to switch to the original visuals and music available sold at a low price point. Now I am asking you again, can you back up your claim about bad business practice or is the rest of this conversation going to be about me trying to psychologically profile you in order to find out about what kind of disorder you are suffering from. Actually we might as well start right now, did you involve yourself in shit such as GG and paid steam mods?

Why do people not consider alt pvp to be solo?
Whenever someone says they have a link or a falcon alt when they go roaming people always shout then down saying they aren't practicing “true solo” whatever that means.
I know you're gonna retort “its multiple accounts, its not solo!” If one person is running multiple characters it has to be solo as there's just a single person behind the controls. The number of accounts is irrelevant as its just one player.
To further add an alt player has to manage multiple accounts at the same time so he has more player stress placed on him in order to engage effectively. Having to watch and control multiple accounts at the same time actually requires more skill than only having to watch one account. In addition alt use has more risk involved. Command ships, tech 3 links, and falcons are not cheap. Using those ships requires them to be in space and be exposed to potential loss!
Yea a link alt gives ship bonuses but they are hard earned from the maintenance of a link alt skill queue and the double attentiveness in combat. Other things give bonuses too like drugs and implants. If someone invests in those are they no longer considered solo since they had more than base ship and skill bonuses? Of course not! No one thinks that way except when it comes to links.
You might say that falcon alts can't be considered solo as its more than one ship on the field. Again, there's just one solo player managing it all. In reality though you are just whining about ecm and how 'broken' it is. There are counters to ecm. Use them if you hate ecm so much instead of crying imbalance.
If you complain about alts and say "DATS NOT TRUE SOLO" then you are literally pissing and shitting yourself that someone invested more time, effort, and player skill into combat than you did.
>>127142774
Not sure if you're trolling. There's no "stress" right now to having an alt off-grid giving fleet boosts. The reason alt pvp isn't solo is the same reason that multiboxing in other mmo's isn't solo.
>>127142731
Noooooooooooooooo I hate svipul v svipul
It's so fucking stupid
But it's the only thing that works fucking christ CCP
>>127142975
They can be scanned down if at a safe or alpha'd if orbiting a gate, station, or pos.
Anything in space is at risk, this is a fundamental concept of eve. Thus the alt must be watched to ensure it is not lost while managing another fight at the same time.
You second point is basically "its not because its not"
>>127143395
And your point is "it is because it is". You're getting more bonuses on one account than another person can get via the use of a second account. If you got jumped by two people, and one of them had just paid the other person in isk to help jump you, why isn't that solo pvp? It only costed them some isk. The second person is just a "resource".
Seriously, this is dumb. One account = one ship in space. More than that and it's not solo.
Is there a linux port yet? Does running through WINE work?
>>127142379
I typed up a more elaborate reply, but my PC crashed.
>Your claim was that there was bad business practice
It is a bad business practice, ethnics-wise. It's plagiarism, and it's pretty scummy to take the bulk of someone else's work, sprinkle low-quality, low-effort details on top of it, and try to sell it, despite the original work being free. It's like taking a a classic novel at a giveaway, highlighting some passages with a marker, drawing a dick on the sides, and selling it to people who've never read it because they haven't heard about the giveaway. Let's be honest, people don't play cave story for the graphics, they play it for the sum of its parts. That sum is already contained in the original. Cave story+ is selling that original (which is supposed to be free) with tweaked content (which arguably isn't even good, just compare the soundtracks and the look of some parts).
I was never involved in any of the vidya affairs listed, or anything similar. These are just opinions I have as someone who likes Cave Story and believes in artistic integrity, and responsible consumer&business practices.
what the fuck are you fags talking about
>>127144384
Please do not strawman me as I provided points to my reasoning.
Your analogy makes no sense as you are comparing two players to one player.
The two player scenario is not solo as one player manages the links and another manages the combat. With an alt one player is managing both. The number of ships does not matter as it is only a singular player.
Is the frostline event over yet
>>127142774
People will always continue to make up excuses when they lose and pretend the fight was somehow "not fair" or "not real", don't worry about it.
However, I suppose a 1v1 fight can easily be defined as a fight where only two player-controlled ships are involved at any time, so having a link/logi/ecm/anything alt just turns it into a 2v1.
Most of the time when people talk about "solo pvp", that's probably what they mean.
I agree that it's fucking stupid to complain about this in eve online of all places. There's better videogames out there if you want to enjoy isolated, fair combat.

our russian has it working through wine. i haven't.
Hey guys. Im on the 1st day of my 21-Day Trial. Have done some research and found a video. Dude is basically saying;
>Join Faction Warfare
>Go to plexes that arent crowded
>Stay afk for 15-20 mins but keep an eye on the game so that you dont get killed
>Farm Loyalty Points
>Convert them to ISK
He claims that you can make like 30-40m isk/hour
Im planning on getting a plex on my trial. Since im a total newb, i wont leave anything to chance and say that i'll make some mistakes or be slow and make 15m isk/hour. If i play 3.8 hour/day I can buy the plex.
I got some questions.
1) How to convert the Loyalty Points to ISK?
2) Can I just go back to the same area and get more LP or do I need to go somewhere else?
Thanks in advance
>>127148982
you can't get facwar LP on a trial character
>>127149127
I just got 12k LP. A dude on youtube video said the same in comments and wrote an answer to his comment that its changed, trial accs can get LP, he should try it out himself.
>>127148982
look at the pastebin in the OP for a catalyst fit that will allow you to clear offensive small plexes with minimal training. clearing a plex deletes it from space, so you have to keep looking for more. use this tool https://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/lpstore/ put in the name of your corp, make it show 100 at a time, sort by LP/ISK and scroll down till you see something with reasonable volume. sell those.
>>127149127
think they changed that, someone always says that but i don't remember any noob actually coming back and saying they couldn't join for years
>>127148982
You convert LP to ISK by buying items for LP (you can do it in any station belonging to your FW NPC corporation that has an LP store), then selling those items to players via the usual market.
How to do it exactly depends on what faction you've joined, where you live and what other stuff you have (eg hauling alts, you don't want to be moving expensive shit using your faction warfare character).
A lot of people I knew said they sold datacores. I just manufactured comets. At some point our alliance was buying VNIs, that was fairly convinient.
Plexes close and reopen (in fact, you need to wait for a plex to "complete" before you can get the payout from it), but you can keep coming to the same system if you find a nice one.
I suggest that you actually read a detailed guide on FW mechanics, though, it sounds like you're really confused.

>>127149584
Yes I am really confused but Thanks for the help :) What items would be profitable to sell? I guess i'll just buy the items and sell them in the same station right?
>>127149490
Thanks for the answer. The thing is I guess I dont have a corp? If i do have one, how to see?
>>127148982
making the most money with your LP can be a little involved.
if you aren't trying to plex your trial and just want to make the most money regardless of how long it takes, you should probably join minmatar now and make use of its bonuses (it's ahead) to get LP at the highest rate but don't sell any of it (because it's the easiest to get and has been for months it's the most devalued in ISK ratio). Hold it and sell it later when minmatar goes under to Amarr.
if you want fast cash with a reasonable balance of LP acquisition and ISK value, then you should probably join either caldari or gallente since they are more in balance with each other.
which militia did you join? because you should probably join

Not giving any answer because confirming or denying it would be a clue. I don't want to be revealed beforeI rob you blind.

you just pay for the game to see your sp go up

>I guess i'll just buy the items and sell them in the same station right?
no, move them to the closest trade hub, they sell for real cheap at those stations
>The thing is I guess I dont have a corp? If i do have one, how to see?
it moves you to an npc fw corp when you join fw, it's on your character info screen somewhere
you could also ask about this in your militia chat channel, though they are probably complete idiots

if you don't do anything about it, yes, it's gone. people have had luck getting their stuff moved out of hostile stations by opening a ticket and explaining you weren't subbed when the station was taken over.

My char is Gallente-Gallente-Immigrants
and i need plex during my trial. should I get the items checking from fuzzwork.co.uk?
also 1 more question. When im defending the area to get LP, the 20minute countdown sometimes stops saying "Contested" on the countdown bar.
Why does it happen? its kinda annoying desu

>>127152328
any time someone from an enemy militia enters the plex, the timer stops. that includes player ships and the npc ships that spawn to defend if you're offensive plexing (which you should). To get the timer going your way, you have to kill or force the other ship to leave.
this should help in finding quieter systems. make sure to use the filters to check which ones get more jumps over time and which ones belong to caldari (so you're offensive plexing)

What do you mean by offensive plexing? Should I stay in enemy faction's plex instead of staying in my plex defending it? Does it get me more LP?

>>127153362
you are day one, so you cannot do offensive plexes yet - you don't have the DPS.
You eventually need DPS because when you are capturing an *enemy* plex (oplexing), enemy npc ships (rats) spawn periodically and stop the timer until you kill them. novice - frig, small - dessie, medium - cruiser, large - battlecruiser.
when you are capturing a plex belonging to your own faction (dplexing) there are rats there but they are in your faction so the timer keeps ticking.
DPLEXING PAYOUTS SUCK!
they scale linearly based on the contest percentage of the system. if the system belongs completely to you already, you get NO LP AT ALL. if the system is like 99% contested (mostly captured by enemy but still barely belongs to you) even then you only get 75% of the payout you WOULD get from capturing an oplex of the same size.
NOTE: contest level has no effect on oplex payouts - oplexing is a flat payout computed from the size of the plex and the current tier of your milia, see pic related.
like i said, the pastebin has a fit that will quickly allow you to kill the destroyers in small oplexes.

>what is fitting
50-100m of t2 mods and t1 rigs
>what is the cost of insurance itself
~350mil and included in my estimate, you will be 150mil poorer after whelping a carrier on platinum insurance
>>127155627
because thats what they use to keep them intact
>>127154372
Thanks for the help!
A thanatos pays 1.4bil on plat insurance and insurance costs 400mil
You buy them for ~1.25bil
>>127154372
1 more question? I am Dplexing but there is a federation battlecruiser (I guess NPC). and the timer has stopped. Does it disappear after some time or does someone need to kill it?
I've captured my factions plex twice, there were ships too but i went afk. So idk if someone killed em or they disappeared.

Damn guys. Feels too good to be true. Im on my 1st day of my 21-day trial and i've already figured out the basic movement, warp, camera controls, joined faction warfare and made 44k Loyalty Points. It is like 2000isk/LP so i've already made 88mil isk.
Is it hard to convert LP to isk? I might have secured myself my first plex in the 21day trial.
>>127173061
you need a little isk to get things from the LP store, and you just need to then sell those things. ships are a difficult to move, other stuff is pretty small
be sure not to get 1b worth of stuff and then move it all in your noobship. be sensible and get it couriered or something.
>>127173061
>Is it hard to convert LP to isk?
that depends on the item you choose to cash out and if you need shit like tags in addition to lp and isk
>>127173061
>Is it hard to convert LP to isk?
Nah, you just use the tool people linked, check market prices to make sure it's right, buy up items, pawn them to buy orders in Amarr or Jita. Just remember not to autopilot with the valuable goodies, and don't fly them in flimsy slow ships.
Also, join /v/ bros and such, and talk to people there as you go. EVE's not hard to play but there are a lot of nuances to things.

Ty for the tips.
Im thinking of buying some LP stuff already so when I spend my LP in bulk, I'd have the isk to spend lots of LP. I currently got 4m isk (someone sent me 5m cuz im eager to learn the game?? lolwut?) I'll try to make it 100m isk in 2 days.
Im planning on not even leaving the station. As a newb, moving expensive shit may be dangerous. Dont wanna lose my stuff getting ganked.
>>127174314
you can get freighter loads moved accross highsec for like 1 mil per jump. I don't know if redfrog are still a thing - http://red-frog.org/jumps.php

for the sake of healthy capitalism, check prices with pushx before you settle on which group to use http://www.pushx.net/ or consider using hauler channels to get your contracts moved on an individual basis
>>127177437
it'd be nice if public courier contracts took off as a thing
>>127177612
they are definitely already a thing, it's just so mind numbingly boring that people don't want to do it. it's a single pilot in pushx that has moved 90% of my contracts.
>>127177770
I meant not pushx or redfrog
>>127177880
that's what i meant too.
my second sentence was only an illustration to indicate that even in the established hauling groups, interest is not high.
>>127177880
there's a haulers channel where people discuss and run public courier contracts.
some of those fuckers are proper detectives, keeping files on everyone who's ever posted a contract to find scammers and whatnot.
what holds hauling back is the lack of meaningful progression, anyone who can fly a freighter and knows how to hit autopilot is about as good (and makes as much money) as someone who's been doing it for years.
>>127177612
They are, it's just that the ones that are worth while will be grabbed and hauled within 30 mins or so of it going up.
That is, unless you do 5x the cargo worth as collateral and somewhere near 50,000 isk per jump for a load that is too big for a bestower with 4 cargo expanders. Because, if you just randomly look, that's all you will see. Oh, and the hauler baiter scams.

Right now, I use hauler contracts for moving some stuff, occasionally. Usually what I can't move myself, and mostly because it'll take me 3 months to train up a prorator for myself.
Wouldn't mind hearing from hauler fellers which haulers they think are the most dangerous. As I understand it, blockade runners are pretty much gank-proof as long as you have undock bookmarks.

Almost everything in the game is "pretty much gank-proof" if you fly it right.
Sure, nothing gives you a 100% guarantee of safety, but you weren't seriously expecting that in eve, right?RIGHT?
But yeah, blockade runners are real simple to use safely.
The drawback is that your cargo space is fairly low compared to even deep space transports (which are still really, really hard to catch if you know how to mwd+cloak warp).
Most dangerous, though? Poorly tanked T1 industrials are easily ganked by the likes of suicide vexors on gates and anything that's on autopilot is bound to die eventually.
I also wouldn't recommend taking freighters through popular trade routes unless you have a webbing alt.
I'm moving around in popular 0.5 sec systems scanning down and jumping into people's missions and salvaging everything.
This is kinda fun.
