Be warned, the difficulty curve's an absolute *******, the tutorial's harder than completing some games :shock: But that's good, because it helps to keep the haklfwits out :wink: Noithing worth doing comes easy...

Came home tonight and my son started describing a Southpark/WoW scence to me - don't know if it's what you posted (got the same problem as Hovis).
Anyway, my son would like to play WoW but, as well as not wanting to encourage him even more on the cumputer, I'm not stumping up for a subscription. So is there a free version? :D


He's only 7 so Northy's might not be the best.

EVE-Online is cool 8) Just about to do my first mission 8)

Gonna connect another monitor up and create an 'extended desktop' as things get obscured real quick on one screen ;)

EDIT: that sucks ass ... EVE doesn't seem to be able to understand extend desktop :cry: I have found a setting to 'window' it ... but each new window is a child of the main window rather than a new window I can move :(

northwind 10-02-07 02:48 PM

There's definately a windowed mode, but I've not found it :oops:

Do the learning skills and then salvaging ;) And get out of your starting frigate as soon as you can drive something better...

Blue_SV650S 10-02-07 05:33 PM

I need cash for a better ship!! ... you don't fancy giving me 80million ISK do ya northy!? 8)

I am "YouWillBowToMe" (a bit ambitious, but hey :D) if you want to contact me mid-game ... !!

In Eve, hit escape for the options menu's

Tab 2 - Graphics, 2nd down on left tab - switch from full screen to window'd mode.

Played

EQ - 5 accounts over 6 1/2 years, endgame all expansions all now cancelled
EQ2 - 1 account, played for 30mins....LOL - disks burned in back garden
DAoC - 2 accounts
SWG - 3 accounts till combat revamp than cancelled disks in bin
Guild Wars - 1 week, disks in bin
Anarchy Online - 20mins, disks in bin
Eve - bout 3 years, 10 mil Skill Points, Maelstrom's as main ship and Mining barges for cash :) acct expires on 12th
WoW - back to it after 2 years off, fun again - Xavius server (tho being ganked by a 9yearold then corpse camped is a PITA, luckily have a few 70 toons to help out :P)

Yeah, that is what I did, and I get the game in a window rather than fullscreen (no problem there), but the windows I open are 'docked' as child windows to that ... I can't drag them out of the main window to elsewhere on my desktop ... so no real use ... I can't find a setting where I can get these windows outside the main eve window ...

northwind 10-02-07 05:52 PM

Oh right, so you want to get the in-game windows like Market, etc out of the game window? Yep, that won't work, I think.

Hah, Blue plays as a girl :) I've sent you some pocket money, ought to buy you any of the Caldari level one frigates- which is probably all you can drive anyway ;)
