Do you like spaceships? Just kidding, everyone loves spaceships. If you're also a fan of MMORPGs, for time immemorial there's only been one real contender: EVE Online. And in EVE, spaceships are serious business—the game's player base is infamous for its brutality, space lanes choked with pirates and scammers and miscellaneous curmudgeons looking to visit harm upon their neighbors. But it's also a wonderful place, a massive galaxy chock full of systems to explore, resources to harvest, war machines to build and shoot at. All good fun, but not the friendliest place for someone getting their feet wet.
EVE developer CCP is trying to fix all that. Today they've announced New Player Training Sessions, aimed at teaching rookies the ropes. The first will be centered around EVE's most hallowed activity, player versus player combat, and will teach newbies the ins and outs of prepping a ship for combat and then going toe to toe with your peers.
You can start earning your stripes in the New Player Training Sessions on October 15th.
