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 ;-)

The Charm of the Familar

With a few picked up a shifts at work due to the holidays. I pondered logging in but I didn't have the energy to do so. Being able to say no to logging in is pleasant. Just as my youngest puppy interrupts me every fifteen minutes to pee, going to sleep instead of staying up is also pleasant. I had a lot of short slept nights when I was active in a corporation.

My next plan has been to learn how to scan again. The new map is in and I need to refresh my scanning skills. My hold is full of probes. My ship appears to be reasonably set up. I remembered how to hit my F key to cloak. In fact, I hit it a bit to fast. I need to get the ebb and flow of the tic back down.

I am also rusty in my paranoia. I idly switch to another window to research breadbowls and the soup I want to make later. Then I remember I am sitting, decloaked, off of a gate somewhere. Whoops. I did figure out a breadbowl recipe and soup as well.

The question was where do I relearn to scan? I need somewhere off the beate…

CSMX - Post #20

Summer is here and CCP is very much out of the office. Sion made a good point in wondering why everyone leaves Iceland when it has its best weather. What it means is that all is mostly quiet on the dev blog front. There are some things happening but the dev blogs and news announcements have not yet happened. The skill points were delivered on Tuesday so yay for unallocated skill points.

Over in CSM chat, there has been a lot of back and forth about sov and measuring the impact and success of things so far. I can say that CCP and the CSM are watching it. The pros and cons are coming in pretty hot and heavy. Some are being looked at now. Some have to see how things are going and if and how the direction needs to be tweaked.

In my corner, I'm starting to gather things together. The summit is in seven or so weeks. In between then and now I need to gather up my question list and write down a few topics of discussion. I'm starting now because I have personal vacation at the end of A…

TCS: Sugar's Non-Technical Guide to Her Low Sec Market

Gevlon shocked me by featuring my store in his blog, yesterday. My entire project has been something I mostly scraped together and have bumbled through to the best of my ability and sense. Early on, I started a naming dynamic to my posts so that people could avoid the blogs about the store. These blogs are titled TCS. Also, if you search for TCS those particular blogs are available.

I decided to create a more cohesive naming strategy because someone said, “I don’t know how interested your readers will be in your market posts.” I didn’t either. I wasn't going to not write them because I write about whatever interests me. It seemed that a naming convention would correct the situation. However, I’ve started to receive a trickle of eve-mail and e-mail about what I am doing. Sometimes people ask me for advice on how to approach their own low sec market or what they should pick and choose or just how to pick and choose.

Cheradenine Harper asked me about moving forward into the wider mark…
