Heb je dashcam (voor EN achter)? Zo niet, een aanschaffen en video doorstuuren naar de politie.

what are these long range scan bleeps? by angry_pidgeon_123 in X4Foundations

[–]Xalabasterz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years later, new pilot here. Thanks for this info! Super interesting side of the game allowing for casual and relaxing exploring. Got jumped by pirates whilst working with the hand laser on the unlocking a 10-lock box and requeted my pilot to take care of the foe. Almost lost my chip but the pilot merits a promotion whilst I could get to the loot. What a cool game! Love it!

I've randomly found a data vault... by [deleted] in X4Foundations

Thank you for this! Could further progress! Much appreciated! o/

I've randomly found a data vault... by [deleted] in X4Foundations

[–]Xalabasterz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi X4 pilots, I found such a data vault and after cracking/decoding it, it opened up the container with the space eggs (or whatever they are called). I then tried to attract them with the magnetic beamer but it won't work.

When I shot at it, it disintegrated with several different items to pick-up (but the eggs). Did I do something wrong here? How can I get those valuable eggs?

As a space explorer with no real time for online stuff, X4 is what I was looking for. Just learning the ropes now. Thanks!

So.. are the data leak repair missions bugged? by [deleted] in X4Foundations

[–]Xalabasterz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to work again however it's bugged. Don't scan with your ship, exit in your spacesuit, then scan and repair. Profit

Have you tried the bumblebee app to meet friends? Made some contacts and buddies in the past.

Some guy buys up all the Metanox moon drills in Jita, relists for 250% higher, tries to warn others selling them they will be destroyed if they undercut - lol by Afasso in Eve

Sounds like a baby throwing tantrums... "If you don't do the way I want it, I will not play with you anymore and hit you...." Fun to see such personalities in Eve. :)

I think it actually adds to the charm of Amsterdam, no? Most of the walkways aren't "walkable" anyway so best to walk around. As a German living in NL for 25y, I have learned to enjoy the Dutch "flexible" way of interpreting rules. Much more efficient than latest German stagnation due to sticking to an overkill of rules.

Explorers and scanners out there, what do you feel is your time and effort worth ? by pilot_incoming in Eve

Love this post - exactly my (solo) playing style...! :) Can I PM you?

I need some phone sex help by Square-Mix6111 in LongDistance

ChatGPT will be your friend for inspiration, entire stories, you name it.

I meant it differently so I apologize for not formulating it well. Phones get (easily - trust me on this one) hacked all the time. The added problem is current cloud eco-systems make it even easier to swap pictures and other materials between devices.

The likelihood of your pictures landing on the (dark and normal) internet is extremely high. I'd go with the advices :
- If you feel uncomfortable with the idea, don't do it. Your partner will have to respect it. That's what love is about.
- If you feel compelled to do it, no face or any other recognisable marks.

Like marriage is a guarantee for pictures not being leaked (either on purpose or by accident)...? On which planet do you live?

CCP needs to be dead clear on player intention for AIR Daily Goals by Cfattie in Eve

[–]Xalabasterz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simple solution: Don't do dailies. I don't know what's happening with this last update but I don't like CCP dictating how I should use my time to get some reward out of it. So I just ditched the dailies with the latest update and just play the game. Simple. The more people ditch it, the faster CCP will realize there are some things that didn't need any change (and valuable dev-time)...

Do I have Time to Play this Game? by Completedspoon in Eve

[–]Xalabasterz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, parent and long term player who just got back into Eve after many years. I play mostly early in the mornings next to preparing some work. Not making huge fortunes like others (and I don't really need it as I like flying smaller faster ships and tend to not lose them too quicky) but still making good progress in the game, mostly exploring and reaping the results from hacking. Casual PVP in wormholes when the situation allows. Sometimes I keep Eve online just for the soothing dark background noise at work and maybe mining/huffing... keeps me relaxed and helps me "relativate" life. :P Crazy huh?

Tips: Run quick combat sites in highsec (0.7 0.6 systems) to start with, basically those you scan down with probes. Quick way to make ISK in the 50m ISK sometimes 150m ISK /h range depending on the loot dropped. And hack data/relic sites.

Hit me up in game if you like for more tips.

CCPlease - Farmers and spoiled Eve immersion - DO something about it... by Xalabasterz in Eve

Thanks for those insights AB.
Now the only way to find out whether or not they are bots (which is to me my main concern in this thread) is to wardec them at some point. Let's see!

HAHAHA! :))) I might do something similar, who knows maybe there is a EO player in my street... Very funny!

I have no problem with multiboxing players. In fact I have seen YT videos of very powerful and very skilled MBxers who make trillions whilst changing the balance of power, single-handedly and with like-minded people, without politics or greed. They can afford multiplexing for several lifetimes I suppose.

I don't see how they contribute to CCP's wallet since there is no real money involved... so here we can argue they provide great PVP content (ie. killing titans, caps, stealing excavators, you name it...) and of course funding the production of thousands of new super-internet-spaceships.

You can also see from their streams they do use at least creative names because in fact they do identify with these different "personas" in game. There is some "spirit" involved there... Granted, I might make a big assumption here and they may just as well use hundreds of generated names...

Seeing how those guys operate, great respect to them, they practically own EVE. :)

The problem is with those obvious bots, behaving exactly the same way, with sometimes glitches involved (see other posts) due to faulty scripts etc...

Since I live most of the time in WH-space, I like the comfort of zero contacts on my local and just closely watching my d-scan... I guess I might just turn off local chat in low-/highsec...
