#170: Over the Bow

They’re definitely not subtle ships.  Gotta love them though, if you’re a mission runner you’re probably working towards one or already have one.

#169: Take a Ticket

Poor Jita. It just can’t get a break. It’s so popular that CCP’s started cutting back the number of folks who can be in there concurrently. Lets hope a more eloquent fix is on the way soon.

#168: Scoop to High Slot

I would have had a comic out last week, but I came down with some kind of annoying flu thing.  It’s going around, and even though I rarely ever get sick I managed to catch this one.   Feeling better now though. :)
A new podcast has also been recorded and should be out soon, so keep [...]

#167: Also Available as an Audiobook

I have to say I’ve not seen a patch with as many individual changes such as this.  It’s truly an impressive work on the part of CCP really.  1.1 is basically wholesale bug squashing, so while it’s light on whiz-bang features it should make the overall experience a lot better for folks.
A quick note, it [...]

#166: NXUS-6

A recent discussion on the EVE forums brought about the notion of player-made billboards in EVE.  This topic tends to come up every once in a while, and in fact had been talked about by CCP as a potential feature.  Nothing’s materialized yet, of course, but if they do I can only hope they moderate [...]

#165: When You Gotta Go

I think we’ve all been there.  :)  Fleet fights are pretty interesting that way really, there’s usually such a presence of mind required when a situation is at hand, and unlike a lot of games there’s not a lot of possibility for you to take a rest.
I think a lot of that is the fact [...]

#164: Planetary Intimacy

Occasionally I snap a screen at random that can totally be interpreted in a very wrong way.  This is (yet another) one of those times. :)

#163: Champagne Room

CCP has finally made the Fanfest passes available for purchase here.  Just a reminder to those who’ve bought hotel packages, you need the pass as well since it’s not included in the price.

#162: Recycle Bin

I went through a pretty hefty bit of hangar cleanup myself lately, and you can read a bit about it on my blog about Asset Cleanup if you like.  Anyway, turns out the station I was in had this giant pit beneath my ship.  And thus, inspiration strikes again!

#161: Honesty in Ratings

Well the Empyrean Age trailer came out, to much fanfare. It was pretty epic overall, especially the last 20 seconds of totally computer-generated imagery where an Amarr Abaddon wtfpwns a whole Minmatar fleet with a spectacular superweapon which will never exist in the game outside of the story.
Let me tell you, the whole thing [...]
