The times they are a-changing

I went on holiday and was busy at work after returning, so regretfully haven’t posted here for a while. I have been playing EVE on-and-off, but mostly off as I spent nearly a month training to get a Covetor on my main and only picked that up last week. I did go for the ‘power of two’ offer by the way and so I now mine with an alt in an Iteron MarkV. I also bought a second monitor for my computer to make this even easier.


The main reason for this post though is to update you on big changes which are happening in EVE over the next month or so:

Tue Nov 30: The next expansion of EVE ‘Incursion’ is released
Tue Dec 14: Learning skills are to be scrapped in EVE and replaced with attribute boosts instead.
Jan 2011: The promised overhaul of the character portrait and creation system will happen


As for me: Despite playing for nearly 3 months now I am still finding my feet. I have resisted joining a corporation (corp) as I don’t have the time to dedicate to one. I have been thinking about joining EVE University for some time, but haven’t yet applied. My current idea is to start a new combat only alt and join the corp with that, allowing me to fall back on my mining character if/when corp life doesn’t appeal.
