Skill Plan Update Jan '10

As you can tell from the pie chart, I have increased my Missile related skills allowing me to use T2 Heavy Missiles, my Leadership skills for the much wanted Nighthawk, and chucked in some Gunnery skills for a much needed sniper ship. A sniper Rokh is my dream, but being shield tanking, it is frowned apon in most fleets, so a sniper Apocalypse is more likely. (Might sneakily buy a Rokh though).

So far I am 7 days away (if I were to train for it) from my fully fitted Nighthawk, money wise I am far from it! Especially considering the way I wish to fit it. I have wondered whether or not to get one now, since a Raven can easily do the same job, with more DPS, not to mention being cheaper and having insurance.

My aim this year? To get a Chimera, one of the best looking ships in New Eden in my opinion. To fly one would take me about 84 days, easy right? Well considering that is just the ship and I'm looking at 900M isk for just the skillbooks not to mention the hull. To get my Chimera fully fitted, so including the use of Capital Shield Booster, Capital Shield, Energy, Armour and Structure Transfers, Fighters and Triage Module will take about 216 days. Sadface. Mind you I might get the carrier just for the logistics side, transporting goods in and out of Providence will be a lot easier for me. Thankfully m3 Corp does Carrier runs very frequently and for free, but I could join in me thinks, help everyone else out. And besides if the proverbial hits the fan, it's just gonna be another unfitted carrier on battleclinic which will be outraged at.

Lack of EVE Playing

I have now not been on EVE for over 2 months, unfortunately University does not condone online gaming through their network.

Otherwise as the avid gamer I am I have been ploughing through Xbox 360 games like there is no tomorrow. I must say that I normally am not a fan of racing games, but Forza Motorsport 3 gets a real thumbs up from me. Superb graphics, great menu music, car replication, track replication, the car sounds are all brilliant, not to mention the over 50 hours of career mode gameplay. The only downside is the lack of music and also lack of good music while racing, coupled with the weird spectators, spoils it a tad.

I also see a lot of people wanting to know what the music is on FM3, well use your initiative like me, and look at the credits. All the songs are listed there.

EVE wise, I have made sure all my training is kept churning away, nearly able to fly a nighthawk now. Been trying to keep up with what's happening but it's just not he same without actually playing the game. Also steamrolling through the amount of unread blogs I have amounting at one time to over 800. Sadface. I'm getting through it, you can trust me on that.

Blog wise, no one follows my blog. Extreme sadface, nevermind, maybe one day people will look at me and think "Wow, I knew that guy". No? Oh, well, I can always dream.
