Off topic: but wow, I tried the trial once for a couple of minutes, love the idea of the game, just didnt really get used to it. But I read some of these posts, it is so confusing if you dont know what they are in game lol. Out of curiosity, how long does it take to catch up to most avg players, like how long it takes to get to 80 with like a 5.2k gs

first of all you can't compare wow levels to eve characters, it doesn't work the same way at all.

eve characters are open ended - in effect it's as if there were no level cap so they just keep on getting better as time goes by - after a while the incremental increase gets less but you're looking at at least several years of play before that starts to happen

the downside of that is that it's _impossible_ to catch up with another player who started before you and this is one of the major problems with eve

this also forces players to join into groups - and as a multiboxer one thing I really dislike is being forced to group

that said it takes about a year to get to be decent at some of the smaller ships but you're looking at three years to get to carriers


p.s. I do mean _years_ it's not a typo, eve is a very slow game with regards to improving characters
