mine and conquer planets. There are countless planets in Eve that are ripe with valuable resources. It may also be all about the location, or a planet might just serve as a corporate clubhouse. Not all planets are the nicest of neighborhoods if you know what I mean, be weary of pirates! Taking these planets for oneself is no "care bear" task. This is an open invitation for space war mayhem.
What's even more exciting is that the addition is the first step forward to Dust 514, the console based game that promises to create influence on the Eve Online PC universe. Dust players will be mercenaries for hire to fight for and conquer these planets. And finally, my husband and I will be joined in gaming matrimony. Dust would bridge my love for FPS with my husband's obsession with the Eve Online universe. CCP won't breathe a word about Dust until Fanfest in March, ouch, looks like I'll have to book a flight. With Huxley as an example of what not to do, I feel confident that CCP will pull through with bridging the two gaming universes.
Mining and conquering come with all new command panels as seen below. You can start to see the start of the RTS portion of what will be required for Dust.

The Scorpion is a fan favorite ship despite it's age. So, as an extra nod to the hardcore players, Tyrannis also came with a new, sleek version of the ship and I have to say it looks smashing.

Player response to Tyrannis looks good thus far. Tyrannis came with a few other functions that allow players to schedule skill training without actually being logged in as well a calendar and other features that make it easier to be a dedicated player. Alright Eve players, let the games begin and make sure you've got plenty of clones stashed away.
