I wanna try it out again, I gave up to quick the last time after not even a week is there any advantage or disadvantage to go trough steam? I personally think I would prefer going through steam.

Also I think I would prefer to be a supplier or trader, what would you recommend how to go about it?

Also there is a Sticky on the German forums that offers players a 21 day trial and 2/3 of the current plex-price if they upgrade to full, are any TL people offering this as well? I would rather do 50/50 with a TL guy then some randome dude.

€: Your way is nice as well.

How to Join Us

Please follow these instructions very closely. If you apply to us in any other way you will likely be trolled or ignored.

If you are a brand new player:
- Create a free 14 day trial account, found on the EVE website. Name it whatever you want, you won't be playing on this one for long.
- Join the in game channel HATCHERY PUB and ask for a Shield Battery recruiter.
- A mentor will contact you (see below for details), tell him your Team Liquid name and he will send you the promotional 21 day trial offer.
- Create a new 21 day account using the mentor's link. This will be your main account.
- Apply to the corporation.

Mentoring

EVE is a complicated game with no single player and massive amounts of depth. You're gonna need help. Equally we want you to stick around and get good at the game so we're gonna help you.

If confused, do NOT ask in local, other random channels, or even HATCHERY PUB (trolls and griefers are everywhere). Your mentor (the guy who sent you the 21 day trial) is your go-to guy whenever you have questions. Your mentor should also send you some money to help you with your early purchases, such as skillbooks.

If your mentor is offline, feel free to ask any of your corpmates for help - we have lots of people who will ridicule you a little (if the answer is obvious) but will help you anyway.

Why We Mentor

There is a buddy invite system in eve in which you get a 21 day free trial (instead of the usual 14) and if you subscribe the guy who invites you gets a free month of game time. We use this system to hook up brand new players with an experienced player who has an incentive to make the new guy have fun and subscribe. It's a win win situation. You'll get at least 7 days more free game time, some money for skillbooks, some help earning money, some valuable tips, and Shield Battery membership.

Create a 14 day trial and hop into Hatchery Pub and ask for a Shield Battery Recruiter. I can't say for certain as I am not in Shield Battery but I would be surprised if they didn't have some sort of system to split the rewards of the signup PLEX.

So I got most of my ships shot to smithereens (re:catalyst), is mining Veldspar for a couple hours the best way to get them back because my combat ship is now a Tristan LOL.

Also I'm in the process of moving my ship from Custer to Shield Battery, if I see red can they shoot and pod me without concord action?

First question: oh god no. Mining is one of the least efficient methods of making isk. Join shield battery first and they will show you how to make 60m isk/hr from day 1.

Second: yes, they can shoot you and pod you. But who cares, it's a tristan. You'll have isk for 100 tristans after a couple days ^_^

Unlike the Germans, we don't give you 2/3rds of the plex isk (amounting to about 400m) any more in reward for you signing up through us. What we do however is mentor you very closely. I very much doubt the Germans know how to make isk the same way we do, or closely guide you the way we do.

Uumm, can I use a much bigger font than the default one?
I tried eve last year I think but couldn't play more than 5mins cause it was taxing to my eyes.
I really wanna play it, (.

You can change the font in chat etc. I'm not actually sure if you can change the default font size for everything but in the last year or so they changed it to be much more readable. Give it another go.

Think there's an option to change the UI size. Try that?

Hmm, I checked some streams and it seems like the font is too small still.
Can any of you try to get it as big as you can and tell me the results pls, shouldn't be more that 20 seconds right?

Hmmm, this seems hopeful, xD.
Ok, downloading.

Is this free or sub?
