The kings of wormhole space return with 19 mil isk. :cool: Also, nobody died! My friend who had his shields taken out last time almost died at the hands of a gas site sentry tower when we decided to take a peek but beyond that we were fine, didn't even run into any players.
Are the sentries placed by players or are they just npcs?
those are NPCs

Oh, cool. Yeah, Pyfa has definitely supplanted EFT as the fitting simulator IMO. EFT has spotty updates
Eft doesn't get *any* updates, aside from people hacking on the databases to keep some stats current. Which is a shame because pyfa still hasn't caught up to eft's features, not to mention the python crap performance.

O.smium is also out of date.

Torabi, if you make a little corp with your friends there's now corporation shared fits in-game. So you can make fits for your guys in pyfa or the in-game fitting tool, then save them to corp so they can easily get them.

The very first thing we scanned down today was a relic site. Score! Or so we thought. We entered and I started hacking. Then the entire site exploded. :saddowns: Did it just decide to de-spawn at the worst time or was it a bug or something?

Was it a Covert Research Facility? Those are Ghost sites, and they have a strict time limit. You have to have excellent skills and be very good at the mini game.

Someone found a ghost site. Did it take it with you when it blew up?

If it says "superior", "lessor", or I think "Greater" as the prefix, it's a site on a very tight timer. You get one attempt at a can before it blows up and takes you with it. Avoid these as a newbie.

Be the change you want to see in the world and kick off Casino War 2 instead of bitching on failheap or whatever about goons being unassailable. They're only unassailable because none of you have the balls to commit to a hellwar to purge goons from space. (please commit to a hellwar to purge goons from space it would be fun to watch)

The graphics engine the game used 10 years ago was an entirely differant engine. I remember when they upgraded it and required a card with shaders (because my computer was poo poo at the time and I had to stop playing :()

He's talking about the server software and how that either limits or allows us to exploit interactions with the game.
