Eve Online Planetary Interaction Quick Start Guide by EVE Uni

As we prepare to enter a new era in EVE Online with Tyrannis launching shortly, the following high-quality video by the folks at EVE University will certainly be appreciated by many of us!

You can also find a detailed Planetary Interaction Guide on the EVE Ivy wiki.

See you in New Eden once the servers are back!

EVE Planetary Interaction Beginners Tutorial - by Maeve Trinity

Fellow Drone Bay co-host Maeve Trinity put together this 10-minute tutorial on the latest build of Tyrannis available on EVE Online's Test Server (aka SiSi). Let her know your thoughts on her original post !

Looks like we're in for a lot of fun!

Tyrannis: a Planetary Interaction Contest - Win a PLEX and a CCP Dev Interview!

Back in early August of 2009, I ran a contest based on "Planetary Control" where I asked you how you saw planetary interaction being implemented within EVE, how it should be approached and what possibilities this would open up to the capsuleers.

Remember, back then DUST 514 was barely a hint and a rumor which some of us had had a glimpse of at Fanfest 2008. The contest had a great turn out with over 15 participants. The winner of the event, @Xiphos83 (yes that's the same guy who had the idea for the Wallpaper contest) got a chance to interview CCP Hammerhead during a special edition of MicroWarpCast. The interview was a success and at lot of fun to put together.

Fast forward to today and Tyrannis, CCP's Planetary Interaction expansion is less than 2 months away. With all the creative juices in full swing within the EVE Blogging Community, this was the right time to focus all this energy once more! And so, I'm pleased to announced another Planetary Interaction Contest!

An Introduction to Planetary Interaction [video]

Planetary Interaction (PI) is almost upon us! With the next EVE Online expansion, the industrialist will have a ball with the planets of New Eden. No longer will they simply be decorations for the capsuleers' enjoyment. Much work remains to be done until its release, but we got a glimpse of what the Devs are working on — or listening to — these days following the latest Dev Blog by CCP Hammerhead "Livin' on a Prayer".

The fine folks of EVE University were also kind enough to put together the following How To video, based on the current state of PI on CCP's Test server SiSi, as well as a short Guide. Enjoy!
