#WORMHOLE EVE ONLINE HOW TO#
And even worse, no one even knows how to find Rage.
#WORMHOLE EVE ONLINE FULL#
It’s the kind of place that most wouldn't think twice about revisiting, and Hard Knocks have transformed it into the closest thing EVE Online has to hell-a bastion full of murderous thugs armed to the teeth and ready to tear apart any pilot that might stumble in. Its planets are mostly barren, its moons not abundant in valuable resources. This star system has no strategic or economic value. How the were they going to get the damn thing back home? Moving day But Hard Knocks now faced an even greater challenge.
#WORMHOLE EVE ONLINE UPDATE#
On April 27, 2016, when the Citadel update went live, Hard Knocks ferried hundreds of components and the blueprint to a station in high-security space, and began to assemble the Keepstar. Hard Knocks began stockpiling resources and manufacturing on March 16 and by April 19 they had finally gathered the entirety of the components necessary for their Keepstar. Elsewhere, other Hard Knocks pilots had given up their murderous ways to focus on aiding in other efforts, like manufacturing, hauling resources, and other logistical tasks. "We were never going to fill the kind of demand we had to build a citadel before they launch." He tells me that himself, Noobman, and others placed characters within New Eden's most popular trade hubs, aggressively buying up all the materials they could.

"It was about three months until Citadel launched at this point," Jerzii says. People joke about EVE Online being "spreadsheets in space." It's mostly true.īut now they had a new problem: gathering the staggering amount of resources needed to even begin production. Hard Knocks was becoming an industrial powerhouse. I had 4-5 private makers producing constantly for me as well." In a Reddit post, Hard Knocks member Noobman detailed the extensive effort required to gather the construction materials necessary: "I had 18 builders with 180-200 needing every 3-4 days. They bought the Keepstar blueprint and made plans to start building. Unwilling to trust anyone else, Jerzii and Hard Knocks knew that if they were going to build EVE Online's first Keepstar, they were going to need to do it themselves. That way he could stop us from building ours while he built his first." That's when we found out that his plan was to basically dick us over and lead us on while he was building his own citadel. "The group he belonged to ended up imploding and we gained a few of their members. It seemed like a good deal until a defector from the builder's group turned coat and had some interesting news for Hard Knocks. Hard Knocks would pay this builder to create their Keepstar citadel for them, letting him handle the logistical nightmare of putting together EVE's equivalent of a Death Star while they stuck to what they were good at. "We had a few possible people who might be able to build it for us, and eventually we got referred to this one guy. For the first time in their history, Hard Knocks either needed to become the pilots that they so mercilessly slaughtered or, as Jerzii tells me, they could just find someone to do it for them.

Being some of the biggest badasses in EVE Online had its downsides, like not welcoming pacifistic industrialists that many alliances rely on for income and wealth.

If money wasn't a problem, however, manufacturing sure was. That implies that the estimated value of the Keepstar is around $15,000 in 2016. For an even better reference, EVE Online's monthly subscription used to be sold in-game as an item that, in 2016, was valued at 900 million ISK and costs $20 USD. For reference, EVE Online's largest battle, The Bloodbath of B-R5RB, cost an estimated 11 trillion ISK. But that didn't stop the alliance from hesitating to drop the 700 billion ISK required to purchase the blueprint needed to manufacture the Keepstar. We have all these older members, and they're all very rich," Jerzii says. "Early on we decided money wouldn't be the issue.
