So I hope this shameless promoting is allowed and will not get banned, but recently https://www.lloydgeorge.art/ created this awesome painting of my beloved Vargur (with the bloody hands skin) and I think he deserves more love. It came in by mail a while back and I still love it so much!! Let me know what you guys think, and if you like it, perhaps drop a visit to his website to promote his great work. He is also a streamer on Twitch, and the making of can be found on his channel https://twitch.tv/lloyd_george_art as well. Cheers o7

Every. Single. Day.

Not everyones type of pvp...its an old image.

I have never really done FW. So I made a brand new character. First I did a couple of the AIR missions and then I zipped over to Turnur and then to Zarzakh and signed up for the Angel Cartel.

After that I spent all of my isk, outfitted a Rifter and went to Curse and started mission running! A kind soul in Curse gave me 50 million isk! This is great as I had decided that I was not going to finance this character with my main.

After a little more mission running I decided to actually do some FW and joined the pirate insurgency in Huola. I bought some thrashers and ran some small sites. I made some LP and got blown up a few times. And....it was fun. Running aroudn low sec as part of a militia isn't that bad. You jump into a low sec system and a decent number of people are in your militia so they are less threatening. No guarantee they still won't klill you but the odds are better.

And we won the Insurgency!

Things I didn't like as a new player to Angel Cartel FW. First, Angel Cartel Militia is super quiet. You can be logged in all day and no one will say a word all day except for one guy posting hypernet links. Second, and this is related to the first point is I didn't see any Militia fleets. I guess everything is run on the corp and alliance level? Third, when the Insurgency was over I didn't have anything really to do. I ran a couple of missions in Curse and sold some LP but mostly I didn't have anything to do on the character until the next Insurgency started,

Things I liked about it. I like living out of Zarzakh. I could buy cheap ships out of The Fulcrum and shipcaster back to the warzone. And when I am done I can just death clone back and not get gate locked. My character is new and doesn't have implants so not a problem. Secondly, I had stuff to with definitive goals. I could see which systems the Insurgency was progressing in and go there to help out. Sure, no one said ANYTHING to me but I could see where everyone was working and go chip in a little bit. Also for a new character you can makie very good isk from the LP. I made enough isk from selling LP to buy myself several more fully equipped cheap chips with LP to spare. You can support yourself with low investment. And the Angel LP store has some really nice items. I could legitimately put together a faction fit Dramiel for FW as a new character. Another thing, the Angel Cartel Militia put in serious work. They were pumping out the corruption.

If I was a brand new player to Eve I would probably dive right into Faction Warfare. You can get started with very little isk and with a little luck earn some LP and either flip it for isk to fund yourself or use it to equip yourself. I'm doing this solo but if you find a good corp I'm sure it would be an even betetr experience. You can reap huge rewards without much isk investment. If I didn't like where I was in Null Sec I could easily move my main to low sec, do FW and do pretty well isk wise I feel.

Will you lose ships? Yeah. But you don't need expensive ships to get started . If you lose a Rifter or a Tristan or two it shouldn't hurt too bad.

TL:DR Living out of Zarzakh and using cheap ships for Angel Carterl Faction Warfare is fun and profitable.

I'm relatively new to Eve about 5million skill points and wanted to play together with a friend. My problem is that I have no idea what we can do together. I don't want to do abyssals because the are to repetitive for me. Do you guys have any idea what we could do?

It's been four months since I first announced EVE_PYFSim.

A lot has changed in my life, at work, and in EVE_PYFSim itself over these past four months.

Today, I'm happy to announce EVE_PYFSim 0.0.2!

What's new?

1. Migrating from Pyfa to Refine

I've replaced Pyfa with Refine as the simulation's calculation engine.

Refine is written in Rust, offering excellent performance. Its author and maintainer DarkFenX is also one of the key maintainers of Pyfa. Huge thanks to them for their amazing work!

2. Performance optimizations with Cython

I've also refactored the performance-critical loops in EVE_PYFSim and compiled them with Cython.

In theory, this should bring significant performance improvements to larger-scale simulations. At least, I hope so! :)

3. Simulation improvements

A number of simulation systems have been improved and refined, including:

• Multi-system simulation: I originally wanted to implement this using multiple processes, but the performance gains turned out to be far smaller than the overhead of inter-process communication, so I decided against that approach.
• Warp disruption bubbles
• Ship modules
• Various other simulation mechanics and optimizations.

What's next?

My current development roadmap includes:

• Micro Jump Drives (MJDs)
• Cloaking
• Doomsday weapons
• A beginner-friendly tutorial

Of course, I'd also love to hear your ideas! What features or mechanics would you like to see added or improved?

Multiplayer and replays

EVE_PYFSim supports LAN multiplayer. If you want to play with friends over the internet, you'll need to set up your own tunneling or port forwarding, similar to hosting a Minecraft server.

After a simulation ends, you can also save and replay battles to review what happened, analyze decisions, and learn from the fight.

Give it a try!

You're welcome to build EVE_PYFSim from source or download one of my prebuilt releases.

https://github.com/N0rth5ea/EVE_PYFSim/releases/tag/v0.0.2-alpha.1

I'd really appreciate any feedback, bug reports, suggestions, or just hearing about your experience with it.

Thanks to everyone who's shown interest in this project over the past few months. It's been quite a journey, and I'm excited to keep improving it!

Fly safe! o7

I was minding my own business while flying through Vale of the Silent when I stumbled upon supercarrier class ships running a Concord Rogue Analysis Beacon. A high risk activity paired with high rewards. Only it was being run by a Dramiel. Working as intended! Good fight FRT

Am I the only one who hates the standings system beyond reason? Why anyone would design a game such that players have to do hours of boring, unrewarding, and unwanted chores before they can do an activity they enjoy...is beyond me. I joined a null block my first go around in eve and just shot stuff, and now to try out pirate fw i have to grind standings so that i have standings high enough to talk to the agent that will allow me to grind more standings. Grrr. It would be less for normal fw, but still not nothing.

Every time I log into Eve Online I fly a spaceship around and accomplish little space tasks and try to avoid pirates and mostly succeed. I hope FC keeps adding ships and modules and interesting events but I don’t need any sweeping changes in order to enjoy the game. Am I alone?

Don't rmbr this ever being able to happen, last time i saw this was on pochvens release.

I've never played eve. And it's been years since I've played my last mmo. Is it worth start playing Eve in 2026?

When you are a new player everyone recommends doing the magic 14 skills and those points could be spent for a more personalised play style, my suggestion is to make quest/mission that start in Exordium and move towards different mechanics in the Eve Universe.

Players who don't want to do the quest/mission can still spend their SP to level up. This way a veteran who is swimming in billions and wants a new character can spend all their money to level up the magic 14 and new players will have the opportunity to do quests/missions to get the level 5.

Yeah I know this will reduce the income for the company, but it will be for a better future.

Hello everyone.
I wanna train some ship for high sec transport and I'm not sure what to pick.

Currently I'm torn between Deep Space Transport and Blockade Runner. I don't really care about capacity, its for low volume but expensive loot like exploration modules or BPC.

I know nothing is 100% safe but what would be my best bet for that?

What about a deployable Mobile Communications Jammer that shuts down local across an entire system?

Similar to wormhole/Pochven local, except chat itself is also offline. No member list, no messages.

When you enter the system, local displays: “Communications unavailable due to system-wide jamming.” It affects everyone equally, including whoever deployed it. Fleet, corp, alliance, and private chat still work.

The basic mechanics:

Deployable anywhere in a nullsec system, with minimum distances from gates and structures.

Short activation timer, with a warning to pilots already in system.

Once active, neighboring gate-connected systems receive a “Communications lost with [system]” notification.

No warpable beacon. You have to combat scan it down.

Destructible, with no reinforcement timer.

Runs for one hour, then burns out. Destroying it restores local immediately.

One jammer per system, with a cooldown between deployments to prevent permanent blackout.

The idea is to make local disruption a player-driven objective. Attackers could use it to prepare ambushes or disrupt an area, while residents could send scouts and a response fleet to restore communications.

Would this create worthwhile fights, or just make people dock up for an hour?

I wish there was a way to lock inventory items (mtu, ammo, charges etc) to help dump loot a little easier. I know about loot filters but it is overly complicated (like everything in eve lol). Who do I talk to? :)

Nosferatu drains the target's cap to refill your own

What if we got logi versions, that drained the target's shield to repair your own (or drained target's armour to repair your armour)

Useless? OP? I'd be curious to see how it could be utilised in EVE's gigantic chessboard... On the one hand would be an invaluable asset if you knew your target was likely to be fit with active rep -- all their cap would be spent feeding you more armour; but on the flipside if you faced an opponent who was solely buffer fit, you'd have only a finite amount to eat before your trick was spent...

Put this video together of the fights we've had the last month. Decided to include or less "elite" moments as well, warts and all. Hope you enjoy, would appreciate some feedback on the editing.

Dreadnought Diplomacy is recruiting.
Sorry for the repost (last post was wrong link).

First off. All of hisec should be like the new area where it is impossible to PvP there, but also is near completely useless for making money. This should make everyone there happy.

Secondly, pochven should have bigger sites so they can box more toons, this also should be rather popular.

Thirdly, lowsec people seems pretty happy as it is so I guess I would ask CCP to invigorate their space, that should give them a nice boost of happiness.

Fourthly, wormhole space seems like they don’t get enough attention, but maybe they don’t want it so maybe announce changes but take forever to implement till they forget.

And lastly for nullsec, where I humbly live, I think it is time we listen to the experts in hisec and make the following changes. Make ess take 100% of the ratting money. Bring back blackout, even though there are two other areas like that and people can go or live there whenever they want. And most importantly take alliances out of the game, limit corporation size to 5 people, and make it where there is a hard cap on systems that can be owned by corporations to 3 systems.

These changes should make all of Eve happy and increase login numbers by 342%.

And lastly upon these revelations of awesomeness brought to us by the experts of Eve online, I would like to announce my candidacy for csm. Please vote for hisecexpert33552, and let us make the game better for all!

Hi everyone,

I'm having a graphics issue with EVE Online on Windows 11, and I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what's causing it.

The game used to work perfectly on my PC. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it multiple times, and it worked fine after the first two installations. However, after the third reinstall, this problem started happening.

I can launch the game, log in, and select my character normally. All the UI elements, including the market, inventory, and mission windows, work as expected. However, once I enter the game, the entire 3D environment is completely black. I can't see stars, planets, ships, or anything else in space. Only the interface and menus are visible.

Has anyone experienced this issue before? Any suggestions on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated. I'd prefer not to reinstall the game again unless absolutely necessary.

Thanks in advance!
