On the surface EVE Online is a game about space. It’s an MMO set in a fictional universe known as New Eden where thousands of players fly around in spaceships, mining rocks, trading goods and shooting NPC’s… And each other… But describing it like that would be doing it a serious injustice, because there’s so much more to this game than meets the eye, and in this video I wanted to shed some light on what it’s actually like to play EVE for longer than a couple of weeks in the hope of helping new players find the same level of fun and freedom as I do, and following this video I’m planning on uploading a string of useful guides and tutorials sharing tips and tricks I’ve learned over the last decade or so with the aim of helping new players settle in and learn the ropes as quickly as possible, so if you like the sound of that then be sure to subscribe and turn on channel notifications so you don’t miss them.
So there I was, flying around some dangerous space looking for data and relic sites to hack in my little frigate, the Caldari Navy Heron that’s got a bonus to probe scanning strength. It’s lightly armed and pretty weak, so it’s not something I want to get into a fight with, but suddenly what had been a pretty calm expedition instantly turned into a life or death situation that I wasn’t expected.
I’d jumped through a stargate that connects to different solar systems, and once I came through on the other side I found myself surrounded by 3 pirates. Players in ships more than capable of tearing me a new one. They saw the stargate activate and knew someone had just jumped in, so they threw up a warp disruption bubble to prevent me being able to warp away, and that was that… I was now stuck inside a bubble with a 1 minute timer quickly counting down, after which my ship would decloak and I’d be dead meat.
Ideas were racing through my head, my ship was full of about 2 hours worth of scanning, roughly 120 million ISK and I didn’t want to give it up without a fight, thankfully I had an idea of how to escape.
If I could make it to the edge of the warp bubble I’d be able to warp away but it was 20 something kilometres away… With the timer running out I would soon be vulnerable, so I started moving towards the edge of the bubble, activated my ships cloaking device and smashed my microwarpdrive for a single burst before becoming invisible to the enemy.
Trouble is, if anything gets within 2000m of a cloaked ship, the cloak fails and I’d be vulnerable again. My opponents seemed to know that as well, as they quickly begin charging back and fourth sweeping the area where they last saw me, trying to get within range to turn off my cloak so they could engage. They deployed drones, small little radio controlled attack bots that deal damage, but more importantly in this instance, they make it more likely that I’ll get decloaked…
I thought all was lost, there was no way my little frigate was getting out of this alive. I watched as they paced backwards and forwards and up and down trying to find me as I tried my best to avoid them, flying manually away from their most likely trajectory. I felt like a U-boat captain trying to avoid depth charges in the second world war!
Then all of a sudden they called off their search and warped away, possibly called on for help elsewhere in the system, and I took the opportunity to decloak and activate my microwarpdrive again to escape the bubble and warp away safely before they came back…
I ended up making it back home safely from my expedition about 30 minutes later and cashed in on over 100 million ISK in profits, and with ISK in the bank, my ship in tact and a story to tell, I was ready to head out in search of my next adventure…
