Hi all, I am a huge Open Ended Space SciFi fan here. Always wanted give Eve Online a try, however sometimes I get discouraged because the game has already been out for a long time, would it be too late for me to join Eve online?
Also, if i were to start, what would be a good starting career for a beginner, thank you.
Well, it's never been to late to start it. For me, the only issue will be the monthly payment. Although you can extend game time by getting more money (we called it ISK) in the game but practically, it's hard for beginner to accumulate fund to pay it.
The game rewards long time player. The longer you subscribe Eve, the better your avatar is. I would recommend getting into PvE first as it is the easiest career (killing npc). As your skill grow, you can start PvP and so forth.
Industrial (aka mining and production) are usually for patient player. Your ship basically useless aside from resource gathering. You're prone to be killed anytime, anywhere by any player. Don't be surprise that expensive industrial ship can be taken down by cheap ship. It is sad but that's how industrial in Eve. You need to be smart and patient, double your effort, and hanging to PvP group to survive.
The good thing about Eve is the market is produce by players. All ships, modules and ammo and players' made and subjected to inflation. It's the only MMO game that has quite complex market system.
