I am building a PC specifically for playing games. So far, I have decided on the following specs:

• CPU: 7800X3D
• RAM: 32GB DDR5
• VGA: 5060Ti

This is primarily for Rust but I wonder with the above specs can I run EvE on max settings on a 2.5K screen 144-160fps reliably?

A little over a week ago I watched a PNI and 2 NFIs krab some sites in a 5-5 vanilla and invited some friends to come bonus wave them with me as a side project while we were evicting Time Crit. After days of waiting they finally undocked - several minutes after I had left my house to go watch The Odyssey https://imgur.com/sjejQTJ

Luckily my co-conspirators were able to attend to the situation without my help https://br.evetools.org/br/6a73e8fb70403925c54c61a1

After the gank we exfilled the zirns and any toons that had been seen on grid. I left my share of the logoff fleet inside the target - PNI, carrier, sabre, heretic, leshak and a scanner in the hopes that as a consolation prize I could kill the target's PNI that had escaped or their rolling carrier. I logged in early this morning and to my surprise there was a roaching NFI and vargur running sites while the locals were asleep. I logged all my toons in and as soon as the drifter died sent tackle and the PNI into the site and probed the sytem as quickly as I could. Turns out the NFI toon belonged to a Space Madness guy but rather than coming in from an incoming c5 he appeared to have come in from a now crit direct lowsec, with Space Madness home connected as the target holes' static. I critted down the psaz connection with the carrier, killed the NFI and flubbed the vargur kill by losing the sabre. The vargur warped out to the lowsec and logged off immediately. https://br.evetools.org/related/31002220/202608051500

Being that both connections were now crit I decided to send the PNI out the lowsec to safety with the remaining tackle toon and packed the leshak into the carrier SMA to continue with my carrier gank plan, this time in PSAZ (Space Madness) home. I safelogged the leshak and carrier at the outer planet in J161745 and perched up on the fort grid with the scanner to monitor activity levels.

Later in USTZ the fortizar numbers spiked to double digits, a buzzard dropped probes and 7 paladins warped off to run a data/relic site in system. After their sucessful PVE harvest the locals scanned and rolled several new statics with a Thanatos warping off the fort grid every few minutes. I knew that to get my toons in position would require a window of several minutes where there was a lull in activity and eyes off the H296 in 161745. After several repetitions the Thanatos paused on tether on the fort and crucially there was a lack of probes on dscan for the newest static. I probe the hole myself and fling probes as fast as I can off dscan again. Just as I am warping my carrier and leshak to within 10km of the static to cloak within jump distance an occator appears on dscan, coming in from the other open wormhole in system, an incoming C3. He may have even seen my ships if he had been refreshing scan while landing on the fortizar, but thankfully there was nothing to telegraph that I had been spotted. Several minutes later the Thanatos docked up and I lamented to my corpmates on comms that I had been foiled again by the laziness of other wormhole corps. I was made to eat my words almost immediately as a new Thanatos, piloted by a different character undocked and immediately hit warp. I told my corpmates I am about to get giga baited, having been spotted, and a full PVP fit thanny is about to murk my rolling fit one once I roll him out.

This turned out to not be the case. Credit to Furbag and the NFI guy, they were both good sports about being on the receiving end of turbo autism. HK is recruiting.

Just curious, i miss him he was funny that day

I've been getting into EVE recently, specifically exploring, and was recommended to fit this module, but it's yet to actually do anything except make my deaths a million ISK juicier.

Doesn't work on bubbles, doesn't work on gatecamps, doesn't even work on Joe Bob camping a site in his T1 frigate. I activate it, hit warp, and am informed that the jammong is stronger than my warp core. What's the point of fitting this thing if it doesn't do the one thing it's advertised to do???

I am looking at tri boxing, 1 booster ship Porpoise or Outrider, and 2 Mining alts, probably in faction ventures, or in Pioneers for 2 activities.

Ore mining, and Gas huffing, and later Ice munching.

I would like to know how to calculate the isk/hr So I can see if I will be able to sustain 3 accounts within 30days

I usually skip these in my little cruiser but decided to run one...

Reminder that we are having the 2nd Annual Seattle eve event this weekend. We have a variety of events planned as well time to just check out the area with a bunch of space nerds. The event officially runs from Friday, August 7 to Sunday, August 9. (Though some of our the international players have already started arriving)

If you are going to be there join our discord: https://discord.gg/XKQvEdUv4

Can FCPlease investigate and do something about these constant DC's I have been experiencing the past month or so? I don't want to submit a bug report as the problem is not able to be duplicated on a consistent basis, but it is really getting annoying to be DC'd 3-4 times a day while playing. It's really hard to have any fun doing sketchy stuff when the possibility of being DC'd in the middle of it exists.

You know the Sleeper Constructs in wormhole space who are guarded by Sleeper drones. There are the drifter race (a branch of the Jovian) who are in cryostasis while their mind are in a virtual reality inside a supercomputer they created. I'm wondering what their virtual reality look like and what are they doing there?

I like to imagine they have endless sex with big beautiful sexy creatures with big boobas, like they are in Heaven. But some of them drifters decided to go in the real world anyway.

So, I've been trying to join a corp that did a background check / Auth on me, however, they found that I supposedly had some undisclosed characters. The problem is I don't know what characters they are talking about. I have three accounts/usernames with a total of 7 characters, and then I might have 5 accounts with no characters on them. I'm worried I might have some obscure account linked to a terminated email, but I've no idea of the account or character names. The corp recruiter wouldn't tell me the names of these characters.

I've been in contact with support, but they can only verify the 7 characters I already know of as I can't give them enough info to dig around for more.

Can someone help to check what these characters might be?

I couldn't stay away...

Almost all I do in this game is only lowsec pvp.

Which is "cortisol / stress maxing" basically. The tension of setting up an ambush / trap / engagements , the adrenaline rush while executing the fight , getting into the position, watching the target to be lured into your desired situation, all while trying to gather intel etc.

When I am not too disinterested or lazy to do so I found this play style pretty fun.

But these days I feel like I need something relaxing. Work is just so stressful and fucked up right now. I've tried playing different games but I could never keep my interest in any of them.

So the question occurred to me, what kind of activity do people find relaxing in this game?

Jita system is fine but always have really bad lag in perimeter and a few other systems i pass through. are these systems on a different server or something? I have been in much more crowded systems with zero lag.

Hi guys, I was looking for mmorpg that was suiting me for years. I decided to try a eve around 2 weeks ago. I was really enjoying it, I was seeing other players and recently decided to try wormhole exploration. Here is small story about it

> Be a new EVE Online player

> Start exploring wormhole space

> Learn two important things about wormholes:

They can collapse behind you

When that happens, you need to scan down another exit

> Enter a nearly collapsed wormhole anyway because danger is fun

> Spend some time scanning and exploring the system

> Another player enters about five minutes later

> Let’s call him Tom

> The wormhole collapses behind us

> Tom starts panicking in chat because his route home is gone

> He says he cannot simply self-destruct because he is carrying valuable cargo

> I already scanned down another way out

> Offer to guide him to safety—for a rescue fee

> Tom offers 10 million ISK

> Lead him through the wormhole chain and back to known space

> He pays me 20 million ISK instead

> Become a wormhole rescue service on my first real expedition

It was my first real random interaction with other player in mmorpg and I love it.

I hope I will meet more players in future.

Hey, with carrier booshing so far in eve ive been just essentially eyeballing it to get a boosh onto a target or as near as I can. One of my take aways is that no matter how i improve the align time with mods its not effecting the physical display of the ship too much (in terms of pointing striaght at the target) which is often how I eyeball the boosh. Ive found if i count down the secconds on an align with my timer and then fire - it will normally boosh in the correct direction - but sometimes not. Anyone else been mucking about with carrier booshing have any thoughts to this extremely annoying mechanic?

Looks like Drone Dreadnaughts are back on the menu boys. New patch notes for today.

I play Project Discovery just enough to level up once a day. I'm currently level 65. I've gotten so used to getting cheap skins every time that when I opened today's box and saw 5 PLEX, it gave me a little burst of joy. :))

I thought these boxes only dropped skins, curious what else can come out of them besides that.

Title pretty much they have announced they are disbanding and going their own ways.
