| Wanted to say thanks to the guys in game who have been answering my few odd questions last week or so, I play as Jericho Solaris.
The Rookie channel is helpful but with so many questions being asked it's hard to find the opportunity to get your own answered,though I have through this thread and various others,managed to answer alot on my own.
This game is amazing,after reading the news threads about it and highly enjoying them,I never bothered playing and still don't know why I picked it up a few weeks ago but man am I glad I did. First MMO I have played in a long time that didn't feel familiar and some what unoriginal and it's nice to actually be learning new things and what not and feeling overwhelmed and out of place again.
I am on a training binge now,and and running simple level 1 missions building bank and getting a handle on combat and what not. Picked up Salvaging and even bought myself a dedicated destroyer to the task along with a tractor beam which has made salvaging my missions and raking in the cash all that easier.
I am at the point now where I can go PVP I suppose and be financially stable enough to requip ships and what not though I am not sure I want to get into that yet as I haven't really got tired of what I am doing in the game now and was thinking I would save the meat of the game for when the PVE stuff started to feel a bit stale.
That said I am interested in joining a Corp if for no other reason than to build a kinship with people in it so when I do get farther into the game I'll be comfortable with who I am playing with,but finding an active corp with actual leadership is proving to be more difficult than I imagined. There is literally hundreds in the recruit channels but 99% are the typical new corp recruiting everyone we are awesome ! and you look at the corp info and they have huge tax rates and maybe 5 players tops in them.
There are other corps with more solid foundations but they require often 2mil SP to enter which is cool, but I'm not there yet.
Do I wait till I have a better skill base and then look for a corp with a foundation or is their a better avenue for me? I am not looking for handouts or the like and I don't need some giant corp,but I don't want to be involved in these various upstart guild things that happen in every MMO and be jumping them constantly. Even if it's a small group doing small things I am cool as long as it's stable. I just don't know how to judge if a corp is decently stable in this game yet. |
