Pure inexperience, Btek. Thinking about it now, it would have made more sense for me to look for a single ship than sift through sites, but I am still very much learning out in w-space.

Thanks for offering suggestions, I’ll find time to practice with the different modules and probes.

How come you were scanning for the grav site and not the Hulk itself? Did you only have a Core probe launcher fitted rather than Combat? Or was it quicker scanning by site than by ship or drone?

Sounds suspiciously like a failed gank of our own… I spotted a hulk, orca, retriever and covetor, scanned them, got a fleet ready, we were holding on the other side arguing about who was in the SB when they all warped back to pos, despite none of us bring in system except a covops.

Indeed. And when there is not a convenient manual, or even when knowledge relies on an antiquated system of ‘help’ pages, the UI ought to be sufficiently transparent to gracefully guide the user to learn.

There certainly have been improvements to the UI, and I am sure more will come with time.

Comment on Recovering a ship from high-sec by pjharvey

I think the unease is more a matter of the conditioning you put yourself through in order to survive in null-sec or the equivalent. I know that I have become much more alert to the presence of any other ship that isn’t in my corporation. But the unease isn’t just that.

I think I am worried that I will get used to the apparent safety of high-sec and forget to revert back to normal when I return to w-space. The danger is that high-sec reconditions me to accept other ships as normal, and I drop my guard when travelling in w-space.

I think our recent pounding in C4 radar sites has shown we can rise to the challenge when necessary, but I understand your concerns about complacency.

I think it’s good that we can be casual about raiding Sleeper enclaves, as it shows how much we consider w-space to be home. At the same time, we all still remain quite aware that we’re in effective null-sec frontier space.

Ok, I can’t hold it in any longer.

What is Liv doing in the final shot?
Is she trying to pee standing up?

The interface like the rest of EVE is predicated on the fact that you have already completely read and understood the manual.

Um… yeah… when I find one I’ll send it on to you.

Comment on Weapon skill and PvP by pjharvey

Weapon skill is being removed as from the Cataclysm expansion. Weapon Skill - This stat will be removed from the game completely. Classes will start with all the weapon skills they need to know and will not need to improve them.

It’s a strange world where people can just float around casually in their ships in space. I once saw 6 hulks and 2 orcas out at a belt and they didn’t even flinch when I flew near, launched drones and buzzed one of them. There are people actually lining up to use gates and calmly motoring into jump range from 15km out as if they had not a care in the world. It’s nearly incomprehensible.
