Those of you who know me, know that i enjoy playing MMO’s, and I have just started playing EVE Online.

For those of you who have never heard of this game (and I really would like to know where the hell you have been?), it basically is a mining simulation set in space. What it is famous for is the space battles that can and do happen in game not just between half a dozen ships, but for the 30 players per side fleet battles.

Having been playing for 3 weeks now, I have been getting to grips with the intricacies of this game. I have found the handy tools for the PC (EVEmon) and several handy apps for the iphone (Capsuleer and EVE Tracker).

But isn’t mining boring? Well yes and no, yes it gets monotinous but having everyone hanging on voice comms, discusing about whats the best skills for certain ships or ship loadouts, ort just general banter the time passes pretty quickly.

Our little corp currently has just 4 members but we can mine some significant ore and we now have sufficient skills within the corp to refine the ores we mine to more costly minerals used in construction. We have even managed to build a Drake (a Battlecruiser class missile boat of the Caldari navy) The amount of dps is phenominal compared to Cruiser class ships.

So I am flying around still a noob and enjoying some of the features of the game and trying to avoid getting the ship blown up

See you in system
