For those with an active account:
Is it true the game now offers character skill re-mapping?
I have like 10 mill ill-spent SP's on my inactive character and man... if I could re-spec them I'd so get back into the game.
-
I do not play it, but my Youngest daughter does, and while she was up during Christmas she mentioned something of the like and wanted me to do some maint on her PC she brought up to me ......
she was all siked about getting to re spend or redo something she had like 17 or 27 million of...... regarding Character skills..
was funny watching like 8 to 10 others trying to shoot her down/destroy her spacecraft and she ended up cleaning the floor with all of them.... then went to do some minor repairs at some docking station.....
-
ask her for me if you dont mind.
Id love to know if its trainable skills that one can reset now or just the character stats.
-
I'm too dumb for that game. Amazing how massive it is...and the in-game economy is equally amazing though.

I have played Eve Online for over a year. Yes, CCP released an update about a month and a half ago. They removed all learning skills from all the characters' brains. The skill points spent in learning is now reimbursed to you. You can then reassign those points to any other skills that you wish to apply. They have also just recently updated the character creator so that all characters are now 3D and have moving avatars. This is the prelude to the upcoming expansion that allows players to walk in station.
-
oh so only the training skills... not allowing us to remove...say, hybrid weapon skills and put that sp towards beam weapons. ?
-
Correct. Only the skill points that have been reimbursed to you from the removal of Learning Skills. :aok
If you have those trained to the max, you should have about 4.5 million skill points to reassign to any other skill you would like.

Idk how anyone has fun playing this game. I have tried it two times and it has to be one of the most boring games ive ever played.

Its ghay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've enjoyed EVE to an extent when I played it, however, sitting out in an asteroid belt mining rocks to afford things kinda kills it for me. Don't get me wrong EVE is an amazing game but you really have to be into it to get the most enjoyment. I tended to solo a lot so that makes it somewhat boring but if you have a friend to run missions with then it becomes a bit better.
-
I'm with Beef. It was a lot of fun, but hard to get ahead if you play solo. Found it hard to get help doing something when needed too.
-
I enjoy the destroyer hulls a lot more than any other ship in the game... I can fly cruisers and battleships and almost enough skills for a dreadnaught but... I just dont get any thrill flying big ships.
Plus DD hulls are super cheap and I can easily afford to waste a ton of those :devil
problem is its hard to be accepted into a 0.0 alliance as a DD escort. 'get a battleship dont waste your slot in the fleet' mentality. EVE has become too much of a firepower vs tanking ability game than its original 'each ship has a vital role' mentality. When it first launched a small group of destroyers could lay waste to a battleship group if they big ships didn't have frigate or DD escorts. Today the BB groups have been given too much tanking ability and become impervious to small ships.. its just stupid.
-
Sounds like you know what you're doing. Maybe I can hook up with you in game.
-
I used to fly an interceptor for Goonswarm, are they still around?
-
Never heard of them. I really don't have much playing time or knowledge about the game to know anyone

They were a bunch of 0.0 pirates, used to be the biggest Corp in the game, and we clashed with BoB often. Even took down a couple titans
-
BoB? Titan? What are those? LOL
-
Band of Brothers used to be another big Corp, and a Titan is the biggest ship in the game
-
I've only been doing EVE Online since August of 2004. I really have a lot to learn still. Just over 110M skill points.

BoB used to be a super power corp in EVE but the Goonswarm manged to get ahold of the account to one of their high ranking officers. (Basically like the CO of a squad in AH.) They used this account to disband the alliance which threw the corp into chaos. It's pretty ingenious but also really dirty at the same time.
Bare in mind I didn't play at all when this happened but I read a lot about the aftermath of it. It's amazing how player choices and events can affect the entire game.
-
Very amazing. That is the appeal of the game imo.

I have found Eve Online is most enjoyable when you are flying with a group, or a corp. Going solo gets boring very fast, and is very tedious to be self sufficient. If you really want to have a lot of success with the game, you will want at least two accounts, one account to spend money on, like ships and weapons; and the other account to make money, like mining and trading. Running two accounts can be costly on your wallet if you don't have a good stable job like myself. I had two accounts, but decided I was just wasting real money on a game that does nothing in return for me. I would rather have a single subscription in Aces High, knowing that when I log on, I can have fun quickly and do different things. With Eve, you have to set aside a minimum of a few hours just to play and do whatever you want.

That's what made me quit the game for a long time and why when I returned to it I simply quit trying to make money. Its a ridiculous chore. Now I merely ran two money making missions or go rat-hunting in deep zero space for a little bit and I can afford to buy,equip and die in almost 50 little destroyers. But then the game became nothing but massive big-ship fights and their devs constantly made little ships useless so.. i left.
If the skill re-map had been complete I could've changed my character specializations... but since it is only training skills its not worth the bother.

Nick come back down to earth, we miss you. :)
-
I am back, silly! I don't play Eve any more. At least for the time being. :lol
-
Why eve online? champions online is better althrough i'ts not the same kind of a game it's an mmo
-
I tried it, but was disappointed. You really have to get deep into it I guess. But the graphics and the idea, - very very nice ;)
But again, - AH is too much for some....unless you are a WW2 aero dweeb :D
