Industry Changes Coming To Eve Online

Industry Changes

A significant update to industry, focusing mainly on Tech I ship manufacturing, will go live in the middle of April in a series of two updates. Material requirements for all Tech I ship blueprints will be updated, and new manufacturing tiers are established, making industry progression more consistent and easier to understand.

AFTERMATH OF THE INVASION

"Over the course of the Triglavian Invasions, EDENCOM and the core empires became increasingly concerned by the threat of subversion of ship and capsule systems by the invading forces. The demonstrated ability of the Triglavians to infiltrate information networks and subvert key communications backbones raised the very real prospect of the capital ship and line battleship fleets of the empires being crippled by Triglavian information warfare.

While the empires deployed selected capital fleets to combat invasion flashpoints, and kept large guard fleets of capital ships close to their home systems, a large proportion of the fleets were rushed into refitting programs aimed at hardening their systems against infiltration and subversion. Additional refitting was also carried out to enhance crew survival systems, improve reactor core temperature regulation, and enable increased power utilization of empire naval vessels.

Developments in these technologies were shared across the empires through the EDENCOM alliance, and inevitably some of the new resource extraction and manufacturing technology also fell into the hands of criminals and pirates. All ship designs are undergoing extensive upgrades to guard against subversion by the Triglavians in the uneasy aftermath of the invasions and the formation of the Triglavian region of Pochven." - Olivera en Zakali, Placid GalNetNews"

A SIGNIFICANT UPDATE TO INDUSTRY

The path for aspiring builders in New Eden will be clearer than ever – so if you have ever thought about getting into industrial production, this is a good time to start! In addition, experienced builders will have a new set of challenges to rise to in their field of expertise.

WWB2: The Story So Far

WWB2

World War Bee 2 has been rampaging through New Eden since last July, marking nearly 250 days since the inception of the PAPI coalition, comprised primarily of the Legacy and PanFam/Winter coalitions, with the primary goal of nuking the Imperium (commonly referred to as Goons) out of existence. Through nine months of war, a lot has happened. The Imperium News Network has been posting updates about the combat actions and strategic accomplishments every week for the last 35 weeks (their latest here) and you can view all these updates here. However, the intention of this article is to, instead of digging into specific battles and turning points, provide a broad stroked view of the war, taking you from the beginning to now, where the war is entering its final phase: the Siege and (hopefully for PAPI) eventual destruction of the Goon staging system of 1DQ1-A.

Throughout this article, there will be links to specific coverage both on this website and other EVE news outlets. These links can open in a new window so feel free to read at your leisure.

Before we dig in to the events of the war, there are two campaign battle reports that I would like to share. The first battle report is circulated by the Imperium and includes every region in the game and also places anyone who is not the Imperium on the side of PAPI. This includes neutral logistics crews (which the Imperium uses) who are unfortunate enough to meet their end in various reaches of space. I have also prepared an alternate battle report, only looking at the areas of conflict (including invaders’ home regions where a counter-invasion has happened) and removing truly neutral parties from either side. Though, at the scale of loss here, the difference is rather trivial, I feel it relevant to ensure accuracy in reporting.

THE EVE EFFECT OFFERS SCI-FI OPTIMISM IN DARK TIMES

Ships in Space

Even before the global coronavirus pandemic, it was becoming rote to point out that people, by and large, were not having a good time in 2020. For one thing, there’s the accelerating devastation of climate change, which has only exacerbated economic and political instability worldwide. There’s also been massive unrest over inequality across the globe, leaving many people feeling helpless to change the tide of history.

So what can a video game do to help anything? If you ask CCP Games, a fair amount, actually. Through their massively popular game EVE Online, CCP says players feel measurable, positive, and utilitarian impacts. Or as they simply label it: “The EVE Effect.” According to internal surveys, CCP claims a full 73 percent of players have made new friends through EVE, and among those who did, 65 percent said their new sense of connection meaningfully improved their real lives outside the game. What’s more, 72 percent said it’s possible that skills they learned in EVE helped them get better jobs. In the MMORPG, players find a complex, virtual environment that naturally cultivates substantive friendships, while teaching people skills that have practical applications day-to-day: ranging from spreadsheet fluency to leadership to better communication. True, that’s not fixing wide-scale global problems, but it’s making people’s day-to-day lives feel richer, and that’s meaningful.

In a year turned upside-down, The EVE Effect might feel more impactful than ever. We spoke to three players around the world who said it’s changed their lives for the better.

Playing EVE Online In A Browser Window Is Really Cool - When It Works

Eve Online Browser Game

 EVE Anywhere lets players on Safari, Edge, Chrome or Firefox browsers log into their EVE accounts and jump into the world of New Eden without downloading a game client. It's similar to how what eventually became Google Stadia was introduced a few years ago, with Assassin's Creed Odyssey being easily accessible through a browser window. Now that is nothing new with Stadia and other cloud services on offer, however it's always intriguing seeing new games, and game genres embrace technology like this.

Logging into the EVE Online website will prompt a "Play In Browser" button if your account qualifies. Currently the Beta is available to Omega pilots in the USA and new players, EVE Anywhere provides a 1080p resolution feed with 60fps gameplay.

EVE Online itself isn't a super demanding game. It can be when a ton of players are in an area together (like one of the various massive battles that make up EVE's war history) but for most players getting a good resolution and framerate isn't that hard. However, what EVE Anywhere does is open the potential to players who may not necessarily have hard to play the game natively, or those who want to get their EVE Online fix when on a non-gaming rig.

'EVE Online' Anywhere Beta: Requirements And What Players Need To Know

Play For Free

"EVE Online" is a game that most may remember from the early 2000s. But like other titles that have gotten a reincarnation, the massive multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) should give any gamer a new kind of flavor in terms of space battles and traditional trading.

CCP Games has announced that the beta test of a version of the game called “EVE Anywhere” has now begun, Engadget reported. And as the title suggests, this version will allow gamers to play the title almost anywhere.

For those who may not be aware of what “EVE Online” is, curious gamers now get a chance to check it out. All one needs to play is any of the common browsers available today (i.e., Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari). Better yet, players can even enjoy the game at 1080p and 60 frames per second. Of course, the quality of play will still depend on a PC or Mac’s specs as well as the internet connection quality.

The coolest EVE Online locations you should visit at least once

Coolest Places To Visit

EVE Online's galaxy is one filled with stories of war, betrayal, and players performing incredible feats like visiting every one of its 7,805 star systems. But what's amazing is how frequently those stories—and the players who inspired them—have left a permanent mark on New Eden. They become more than just another chapter in its living fiction, but a physical part of the game itself. For years, developer CCP Games has immortalized players and battles with permanent monuments that anyone can visit.

Combined with unique tourism spots that help tell a piece of its complicated in-game lore, these monuments to players make EVE Online a uniquely fascinating world to explore. Y'know, when you're not busy being a pirate or trying to become filthy rich cornering the market on ship modules. And because EVE Online is now free-to-play, there's little stopping you from going on an intergalactic road trip. Here are the coolest places in EVE Online that everyone should see at least once.

EVE Online: Every Playable Race, Ranked

Eve Online Races

 The world of Eve Online is comprised of a number of players and NPCs hailing from different races. Each race within the game has a differing culture that shapes their motivations and ambitions when traveling the stars. Each of the four main races are further broken down by Bloodlines that add additional depth and complexity to each character.

Fundamentally there is no difference game-wise between the races. A Caldari is just as capable as a Minmatar when it comes to space combat and Amarr’s are just as capable traders as Gallente. The only difference exists in aesthetics and background lore. Here are the differing playable races ranked by how interesting their role within the lore is.
