Expansion Hints: New Front Screen

How many mining lasers does this venture happen to have?




Or this yellow Orca(ish) flat thing.


Hints from the new login screen for what we shall learn later this week. I have no idea but it's something to look at.

Plus, thank god, its blue.

      Prospector would have been a better name imo.

    Pretty sure that second image is just a venture from an odd angle. But openin up that third high slot would be a nice change. Perhaps a little expansion to ore hold too? That would make my WH gassing and mining a little less tedious :).

      But it is so far away if you look at the login screen. A frigate would vanish at that distance.

    Yes ! They've added a green venture like we talked about (well grey with hints of green). Looks promising. Doesn't have Traits yet in the description. I hope it'll be more than just a paint job.

    Both look like a Venture from different angels to me...

    You know, per FF Pre-Stream Fozzie says they are adding 6 new ships to be announced at FF... I would be very pleased if Ore might have be offering a new cruiser sized, Ventureish like hull? Hmmm?

    Imagine the Venture scaled up (ore bays etc.) to a cruiser? of course, it could just be that the Vent is just getting a hard point buff...

      The second is way to far away to be a venture. Also, their lasers have nifty effects going on at the asteroid.

    Well maybe they are redesigning the Mining Barge / Exhumer series to be closer to the very well done venture. Many people have said this design is great and I wouldn't be mad at them if the change my Hulk into something that more looks like a big Venture ;-)

Sugar’s Non-Technical Guide to Making Boosters

Welcome to my non-technical and outdated but probably still useful guide to boosters.  There have been changes to how things are built in Eve. This was the old POS code before the introduction of new structures in 2016.   This is just a walk through on my wobbling path of booster production.  It took me half a dozen different documents to figure out what I needed to do to make these mythical things.  It is what I do.  It may not be perfect but it works.

This is pirate focused industry.
This guide brought to you by Lain asking me to write it after I tried to explain it in chat.

Why make boosters? Because drugs are good.  Really they are performance enhancers and performance enhancers can give someone that extra edge in PvP.  It was also because my boys used them and when they ran low they often ran out, I could be their supplier.  They would no longer hoard their drugs due to the length of time it takes to get fresh product.. The thought of being a drug kingpin was also very appealing. …

Will the real player please stand up?

I installed Eve on my Surface the other day. I then remembered why my last laptop, when I was playing Eve, was an Alienware gaming laptop. My Surface, wonderful creature that it is, runs Eve at such a tiny magnification that I squint to see it. I could change my settings and adjust for this. Instead, I'll stick to my desktop and try to remember to log in and see the latest round of changes.

Yet, here I am writing.

Deep in the muzzy field of my brain that has been working almost daily for the last six weeks, random thoughts bubble up. I may not log in and spend my time focusing on Eve as a world, but it hasn't slipped from me. I've picked up an amazing group of friends that I talk to daily and many of them still play enough that I skim the social edges. At times I'm angry that the same social problems exist. At others, I'm fascinating by the process.

Today is a fascinating day because I've been answering e-mails. I still get e-mails occasionally from people who …

Memoirs - Part One: Virtual Worlds

Virtual Realities: Memoirs of an internet spaceship politician by Sugar Kyle CSM9, CSMX
This is where it really started. The day I lost my mind.

I never told anyone how long I had been debating my run for the ninth CSM. The thought started to circle in the back of my thoughts in November. I was back home after a sucessful Eve Vegas. I had met a few people. My notes from the presentations and round tables had gone over very well. I felt useful, comfortable, and excited that I was a member of the community. I belonged and I cared about this thing that I belonged to. That thing was the community of Eve Online.
Eve Vegas of 2013 was when I found out that a conversation I had been fortunate enough to have with CCP Masterplan at Fanfest of that same year, had sparked enough interest to gain developer attention. At Eve Vegas I learned that they would be working on ideas based off of the premise that I had presented. Only days later, a developer posted to the Offical Eve Online forums about i…
