Eve Online

[Armpit_Sweat]

I have heard people talking about this game for so long. Finally decided to start downloading. Not completely sure what to expect. Any tips or things I need to keep in mind when playing?

Prepare to invest a few hours to understand the basics - enough to dock. Prepare to invest many hours on reading guides, if you want to understand enough, to understand the answers when you have even more questions I wasted so much time when I first started playing EVE...
Oh.. tips.. ! Got one! VERY IMPORTANT!

Expect a scam, if it sounds too good! Expect EVERYTHING to be a scam.

Join a new player friendly corporation, as soon as you learn to use map, chat, and are able to dock Dock -> join recruitment channel -> wait until you see a good add -> contact Corp officer -> he will tell you what to do. One last thing: If their Corp-office is over 30 jumps or/and in a low /zero security system - think twice before joining ( it will make sense when you know map/docking )

Okay, I will probably try the game out tomorrow. Gonna try what you said.

Wish me luck!

I'd stick to high sec for now, and like armpit_sweat said, don't trust anyone. They're all (space) scum.

As much as I admire the level of dedication people like that have for EVE Online, I'd never engage myself with that kind of stuff. You need to have 100% spare time for shit like that.

Yeah that's the problem, I have yet to find a deep MMO that you aren't forced to play 24/7.

Same reason I don't play EVE myself, I would never find the time to play it on the level I would like to.

I tried it. Massive grind and 90% of the time you're watching yourself float across the screen and not actually playing..
