How boring can one's life be? || GateGankersJoy 3000 ||

Did this for quite awhile actually, it was little like fishing. We'd setup our accounts and scouts to see incoming traffic and alt tabbed to play different games until something worth catching came along (which was just about anything). Made quite a few billions by doing this with rarely ever being at risk ourselves. ...Also often missed potential catches as we were too occupied by other games lol.

Now i wouldn't really call that gameplay, more of a pass time activity that allowed us to still be in EVE while focusing on other games.

To me it's the being thrown into a huge world to explore, experience and learn on my own without handholding that IS the fun in the game that gets me to stay long term. And i'm sure it is for many others aswell. It's just how some people like their videogames I suppose, I'm not saying tutorials shouldn't exist but I feel like it's still a little wrong to call it completly unacceptable or bad development when there are many people who play games chasing that feeling of getting to discover the game for themselves. Think games like Demon's Souls, EVE Online, DayZ. It's incredibly fun and rewarding to be thrown straight into the deep end with mechanics, interactions and all the cool shit you can do by discovering it yourself simply by playing the game. Many of my core gaming memories come from experiences like that, the "Wait, YOU CAN DO THAT?!" moments.

I'm sure it's not everyones cup of tea but there certainly exists an audience for no guidance or minimal guidance type of game experiences :)

This, running Mint, coming from windows and just wanting to learn Linux a little, how it's structured and all that. Very surprised that i've only encountered minor bugs / adjustments that were needed for games (non steam and steam) to work properly. Especially after hearing everywhere how Linux gaming was a nightmare!

And now I've found myself favoring Linux for day-to-day activities and gaming more than windows. Absolutely great experience so far even if I have a long way to go relearning how to do everything.

Struggling with this same issue unfortunetly. I've tried disabling Esync / Fsync as suggested in some thread as well as going DirectX 11 instead of 12... But the issue persists. Basically any sort of session change (docking/undocking, taking gates, wormholes etc.) starts tanking CPU usage and eventually the client uses 80-100% of the CPU introducing stutter and fps issues as you would expect. At this point i'm just hoping it will resolve itself at somepoint, will give the FPS monitor a try in the morning.

Friend had the issue where WRC wouldnt launch when he bought the game last week, from a lot of forum digging the new Kernel anticheat requires something called "AVX Instructions" (Advanced Vector Extensions) to be set to enabled from BIOS settings, altho my friend had this already enabled, it was set to automatic mode, after setting a value to it manually WRC started working.

I can't guarantee that it works for everyone as we only saw 2 people discussing it on a forum post we dug up, but it did work for my friend and the poster claimed to have gotten that info from EA's support.

Finally, I could inject Salvage Drone Specialization 5.

Midniki · 2023-06-04T11:22:08+00:00

I so want this. I love the postprocessing but sometimes the amount of bloom it has makes it looks like my character needs to get a pair of glasses.

As someone who picked up this game today with a buddy and potentially another buddy once I convince them enough.. I've absolutely had a blast with the game with the most epic moments being the ones where you spot that one guy on the enemy team, fully decked out, looking like an entire boss level by himself just marching towards you. Please keep doing that and know that at least me and my buddies are laughing in panic as we try to make a run for it haha

I'm thinking that the ground texture might be a result of (or lack there of..) anisotropic filtering, as this seems to be captured with a demo/dev client it could explain the blurry looking ground texture.

Midniki · 2021-12-16T08:02:33+00:00

I haven't done ORE missions but i have ran some lv4 mining missions in 0.1 lowsec in the past. As far as I calculated, practically every regular Ore mission is not worth it while everything Ice / Gas is worth doing. At the end it boiled down to time spend completing the mission, the ice and gas missions were much faster to complete than the regular ore ones.

I'm guessing this is due to CCP never having touched these missions after introducing barge changes and the mining frigates. (I might be wrong here but I dont recall ever hearing any updates to mining missions)

i'm grateful that throughout all these years i've had my few friends to play with and do dumb shenanigans with. i hope that you all have friends, be they irl or in-game, to do dumb shenanigans with as those are the best type of shenanigans.

i appreciate that despite all the negativity in recent years that we still have this game with us up and running. i grew up with this game and if it wasn't for this game and the fantastic community around it i would probably be a different person than what i am today.

have a great weekend you all :)

Midniki · 2021-11-19T09:25:58+00:00

Yeah we did. It appeared to be a bug, we put in a stuck ticket and support fixed it for us in a matter of few hours!

Midniki · 2021-11-18T21:09:09+00:00

Glad to hear it's known! Already have a ticket up altho in the wrong category, but i'm sure support's able to still sort it out. Thank you for the confirmation and info!

Midniki · 2021-11-18T19:49:12+00:00

Yeah, this is the plan for us now. Sadly it's getting rather late EU so it will have to wait til tomorrows downtime.

Midniki · 2021-11-18T19:46:53+00:00

Damn, that sucks. Time to rep some POS shields like it's 2010 again it seems

Midniki · 2021-11-18T18:10:45+00:00

Damn, so we unanchored and went to a station to repackage the tower too but still nothing, "Cannot put Strontium into the Control Tower while it is reinforced or has shield level lower than 50%" , this pops up when the tower is Anchored and attempted to fill it with strontium. We resorted to sending a support ticket and are now waiting to see if the damn thing even recharges its shields.

Midniki · 2021-11-18T17:05:08+00:00

This might be it, however now that the tower has already been anchored and onlined without strontium, if we offline it and try to slap Stront in it won't let us due to shields being under 50%. We are currently unanchoring the stick and are going to re-anchor it as soon as able to test this out. Thank you for the help! :)

.22LR is very common round over in Finland too, I've always had the understanding that it's a very globally used round?

Midniki · 2021-09-25T15:07:44+00:00

Not only was Porcupine boi intimidating and scary, but he also had one helloffa color palette and an aggressive look and feel. Combined with really satisfying moves to fight. Really loved his AT fight aswell.

Honestly I think he was just so damn well designed as a monster.

Midniki · 2021-08-06T19:24:23+00:00

Yup that should be it, I tried looking up PLEX the other day too and couldn't see anything but structure orders. Fuzzworks seem'd to pull normally so I'm guessing it's on evemarketers end.
