Update: this reward has now closed and its best submissions, all from expert players with hands-on experience, used to create curated content: EVE Online first steps!
We've launched plenty of rewards asking for advice for a player's first days in New Eden, but this reward asks about what comes before.
What we're looking for is easy-to-understand guidance and advice for someone who has decided that they want to play EVE Online but knows nothing about the sign-up process. And so, we advise you tackle at least a few of these new-player questions (as well as anything else that might be of use):
Should I play on Steam or the standalone client?
Can I play on Mac or Linux?
What are the differences between Alpha and Omega accounts?
How many characters can I have?
What are the most important decisions in character creation and are they reversible?
What do the different currencies mean? ISK, PLEX, EverMarks, LP - I'm lost!
Should I sign up using a referral code? Where do I find them and are they all the same?
What else should I know?
You can enter with either text for $2 or video for $10. The most helpful entry will be awarded with $25 instead!
