Hi all,
so, I've said to start this thread here, with Eve online mainly, alto' we as a group, already tried and migrated already to Soldiers Inc.
here is about Eve online
it's a SciFi themed virtual world, it's a metaverse, it's not just a game, in more sense than one...
the initial "players" start as a pilot, in the future, that is in fact an advanced being, with self-cloning abilities, a mix of a humanoid and machine, working in a perfect blend with its ship, starting with a basic small ship, called capsule, that will allow basic interplanetary and interstellar travel, this capsule acting more like a shell, providing some basic protection during travels, at least until the pilot - named also "capsuleer" will have his own ship, as he chooses to pilot one ship or another...
since it's a virtual world, a metaverse following each and every rules of existing and operating as an open ended virtual world, it's not a game, or just a game in the old sense of the word
meaning, the residents of this world are not really "players" but pilots and capsuleers, there is no goals per se to achieve, no levels to level up, no "Game over" concept
sure, there are missions and quests build within this world, this universe, and one can work on accomplishing those missions and quests to improve and to advance, in a sense to level up, to make his/her character - the pilot-capsuleer - better, or his/her account better
one can do so many things, it's almost impossible to list them all here, but just to give you guys all a quick glance, here is what one can do at his/her own pace, on a regular basis
- explore the universe, named New Eden, just a spectacular display of star systems, planets and moons, wormholes, and more, just explore, find loot, like old alien structures, with relics and artifacts that can be looted and later on sold for great profits
- mining, one can do some harvesting of ore, and gases all over the universe and sell that ore and/or gases for great profits, to make the fist chunk of money
- industry - one can use the ore and/or gases to process minerals, that will be used as input materials to make, to manufacture. all kind of items, pretty much anything and everything any pilot may need, from ships, to weapons and ammo for those weapons, to shields and armor, to defense enhancements for those modules, to much, much more, to orbital stations, and the modules in those stations that will allow proper operations and defense of those stations and so much more
- research and inventing is also a sub-part of the industry type of activity, where one could operate as an engineer and research better products, or even invent newer and better products, to make and clearly sell, either the tech itself, the blueprints to make those new products, or the products once made
- and not lastly, quite important, one could do trading and commerce, operating as a merchant, by selling, buying, exchanging products on different markets, even transporting with proper cargo-industrial ships, large amounts of products over different star systems, or constellations, just to supply one area that's short on some product, making huge profits in the process
- and, like it would be also expected, some military conflict and combat action, some wars can be expected in a PvP, player-vs-player mode, or PvE, player-vs-environment mode, vs. NPCs for pure fun, for loot, for territorial domination and much, much more...
- on this line, some are pirates, rogues choosing to pray on the small and weak, some are bounty hunters, hunting down who ever becomes a target with a bounty on their head, some are choosing to be military security officers, involved with warfare operations in a corporation or alliance and some are choosing other roles as they like or see better fit for their game style, like fighting forever with NPCs, for greater and greater rewards and more, much more...
now, this virtual world is well established, operating fine for over 16 years already, as such it has its own tradition, its own lore, history and backstory
there are some races, there are four major empires, some at war with each other, some neutral, there are some law enforcement entities as much as law can be enforced in an vast almost lawless universe, and with that, the world has a life of its own, with millions and millions of pilots-capsuleers from all over the world, with an average of 20 k pilots logged in at any given time, so almost anytime anyplace something is happening and it's all made by the pilots, the community
the developers are extremely active and involved with the community, the support staff is fast and helpful and they really provide a fair for all and fun environment to enjoy...
since it's a virtual open world, not a game per se, it can't be played so to speak in a browser, one will need to download a so-called client software, that's like a special viewer, allowing the pilots to log in, enter and operate in the world...
but, it can be easily used with a laptop on a decent WiFi, like I'm doing it most of the time, altho' I agree, for more ample fleets operations especially for military combat with warships, maybe a desktop computer with some hardware power in its belt will help, at least with the speed and with the amazing graphics
now, we, our team, are already present there, we already have our own corporation there, named the same as here Trade Masters Consortium, and we are doing quite fine, considering we just opened our first orbital station, that's an engineering facility, allowing us manufacture and research, so we can make our own products, almost free, in the sense that using our own ore and/or gases and/or minerals, and not paying to others to use their manufacturing and research facilities - not to mention now, others will pay us, should they need to use our engineering facility...
now, this may not seem like a lot, but please believe me when I say it, it's a major, a significant milestone in the history of our corporation there in Eve online... mainly because such a facilty, an orbital station is extremely expensive, not just expensive, but extremely expensive, only the initial investment is over 1.3 Blb. and that's just the basics, just to make it ready for operations, at basic levels...
now, the market there is different, don't compare with the billions we make here in virto - there, to make that kind of level of money, in billions, is not easy at all...
if you'd like to join us there, please DO NOT just join randomly, as simply we may never find each other or if we find each other, we may end up at war with each other, by simply race and empire affiliation - not to mention, we can't be and operate in the same corporation, if we are not on the same server, same empire, or allies empires, and same or similar races...
also, a new player randomly joining gets just around $5,000 in start-up cash, which is ridiculously low, but a new player that's sponsored by another player will get - from the system - a start up cash of around $250,000 if I am not wrong, which is considerable more than just a random player...
on top of it, if we are on the same similar areas, so we can join forces in our corporation - meaning same server, same empire or allies, and same or similar race - then, in-world, I could clearly and easily help the new guy joining us, in many ways, from simple cash support, to ships, modules, home base and more... while, if we end up in opposite teams, this won't be possible, not to mention if we end up on different servers, we won't ever find each other...
as such, I invite you all to join me and us there...
I'll post a link to a YouTube video promo clip, so you can see with your own eyes what I cannot explain in words...
and I'll also post the invite link here, so we can eventually find each other in-world and join forces and make our team stronger there too... as usual, the corporation there is already created and I could use your help, as VP's if you'll decide to join me there and help out...
as a side positive note, we are not at war with anyone, we enjoy great peacetime, to grow and have our fun doing our thing... we are too small to be at war with anyone or for anyone to have something against us, so we are not exposed to any risks, nor in a difficult situation, on the contrary, we just installed our own orbital station and this is a sign of growth and stability...
here are some basic tips to consider, before you proceed to create your character and join
- make sure you choose the name of your character as you like it and you'll enjoy it, as once you've chosen that name, you won't be able to change it, ever, so as you can imagine something like smith2143 it's not really a very appealing name for others to know you by - your name will be what others will always associate you with, it's your pilot's name and identity in the universe of Eve online
for example my name there, so you can find me easier is Gabe Gallacher - that's in fact my transition name, borrowed from Second Life, another virtual world I'm in since 2006, on and off, not daily, but still around
- make sure you choose Tranquility server
- make sure you choose a race of the either Gallente or Minmatar empire - any race you'll like, you feel it fits you best, but one of those two empires, that are by default allied empires, so we can meet and work together...
- for backstory purpose, there are two other empires, Caldari and Ammar, and if you somehow choose one of the races within those two empires, then by default we'll end up enemies not allies, as we are in an endless war with them - there is peace time, there is truce here in there, in some constellations of the universe, but as a general state of affairs, as far as balance of power goes, those two major factions, Gallente and Minmatar as allies, are at war with the other empires, and with Caldari and with Ammar, those two not being allies with each other...
also, for your peace of mind, rest assured, knowing you're safe, as Gallente Federation, as an empire is the most powerful empire in our virtual world there, and Minmatar as long time allies with Gallente, thus clearly significantly changing the balance of power to our favor
at a first glance, no one will mess with you, unless you're openly looking for trouble and provoke others... hehe...
once you'll join, please post it here, and also send me in-world a message, to Gabe Gallacher... how to find me, or our corporation, Trade Masters Consortium, is relatively easy, like with almighty Google, there is a "search" feature there too... usually in the upper left section of the screen...
here is the link to join the Eve online world
Eve online invitation
I sure hope we'll see some of you there soon... once you'll join we'll make sure you'll receive a lot of help, to grow faster, so you can join us, so we all can have even more fun...
