It’s been several weeks since my last post on the monoliths of New Eden, but a lot has been done in the interim. Many thanks to all the capsuleers who have reported sightings of monoliths throughout the cluster; particularly fellow Signal Cartel explorers, Breysyth Asythe (@Breysyth_Asythe) and Radical Divinity (@RadicalDivinity). Findings in Brief Thanks in […]
Read more "Encounters: The Monoliths (Part II)"Pilot: Markus Vulpine Ship Type: Stratios Ship Name: Urocyon Hello and welcome to Episode 1 of my new blog series Explorer Ships which highlights the ships and fits of Eve’s diverse community of Explorers. To break the ice I figured that I would go first and highlight my ship, a Stratios operating under the name Urocyon. I had toyed with […]
Read more "Explorer Ships | Episode 1: Markus Vulpine’s “Deep Space” Stratios"Special thanks to Radical Divinity for pointing me toward an entrance to this system. I took a break from writing a multi-part post today to continue my exploration of the Unidentified Wormhole (aka Drifter Wormhole) entitled “Vidette”. The technical term for this system is J164710 and I’ll be referring to the sites in this system using […]
Read more "Encounters: Unidentified Wormhole “Vidette”"Things we know: Drifters are collecting Capsuleer corpses The collected corpses are likely being converted into Drifter combatants like Apollo Tyrannos and Artemis Tyrannos. Ok, that’s pretty straightforward. Drifters are collecting Capsuleer corpses to presumably create more Drifters. Thus, by denying them kills (and by cleaning up after kills of their own), Capsuleers could presumably help […]
Read more "The Potential Drifter Army Floating in Space"Nothing irks me more than bullies. Liberty, equality, and critical reasoning are all things that I hold in the utmost regard. The press should be free, scientific inquiry should be free, and no one, particularly a social construct, should stand in the way of those inalienable rights. So when the DED threatened to issue death […]
Read more "Regarding Hilen Tukoss’ remains and the DED"Nothing really prepares you for seeing it for the first time. In the vivid organic formalism of New Eden, seeing something so simple and Minimal is as shocking as the sheer size of what you are approaching… This is Part 1 of a multi-part research series surrounding the Black Monolith phenomena in New Eden. My exploration roams […]
Read more "Encounters: The Monoliths (Part I)"Tomorrow, CCP will roll-out the first of the SOE Sanctuary skins. The dark skins take the SOE ships (Astero, Stratios, and Nestor) and completely transform their aesthetic. Pure white is replaced by deep gun-metal blue, broken-up only by discrete gray highlights; giving the SOE ships a much more austere countenance that is, perhaps, a harbinger of the dark […]
Read more "New SOE Sanctuary Skins and the Legend of the Stratios “Emergency Responder”"Hello all! I need your help with a new series highlighting the ships piloted by Eve’s explorers. I’ve been playing Eve Online for a little over 100 days and in that short time, I’ve come to realize that my fellow Explorers are a diverse and intriguing bunch. Some are newbies just starting-out on their journey through The Cluster. […]
Read more "Explorer Ships: A New Blog Series Needs Your Help!"UPDATE 05/27/2015: Thanks so much for the feedback via Twitter and Reddit! Special thanks to explorEvE on Reddit who has pointed out: The site has featured in eve travel The site has been there since at least 2007. G5ED-Y is in the amber cytoserocin hotspot. I think it’s gonna turn out to be more about blue pill than […]
Read more "Encounters: Taibu State G5DE-Y War Machine"“Real life” kept me away from Eve for the better part of a month, but I’m back! After catching up on all the EveMail, Reddit threads, and Twitter twittery, I came across a video from The Scope sourced from footage taken by missing idealistic scientist posterboy Hilen Tukoss. Curiosity piqued, I decided to devote the next […]
