EVE Online Fanfest 2009 Speedlinking


I'm slowly gathering all the good articles and information that I come across in regards to the EVE Online Fanfest Coverage - articles, facts, photos, blog roundups,etc. I'll keep updating this post as I find new info. If you've written something or are aware of a great article I haven't linked too (and there are plenty of these), then please add them to the comments and I'll add it to the list.

What we've learned so far on:

EVE Online
  • Ship formations with added bonuses will soon be introduced
  • The next expansion, Dominion, is to be launched on December 1st, 2009
  • COSMOS social network has been renamed "New Eden"; and some folks just don't agree with the new name
  • New Tech III loot as well as Tech III Frigates are coming
  • Planetary ring mining (been looking forward to this one for quite some time)
  • Comet mining (been promised this way back when)
  • @chocolips' take on what COSMOS is - pre-Fanfest
