Dust 514 (Or finally a reson to turn on my Xbox 360)
CCP just announced Dust 514. Their RTS/FPS hybrid game. It is being developed by the Shanghai office.
It looks really awesome. I for one can’t wait to see how it all shakes out. Keep an eye on the dev blogs, I am sure there will be some more juicy information to come out about it now that the cat is out of the bag!
Here is a trailer with gameplay footage and Hilmar Peterson talking about it at the Gencon in Germany
Here is the press release on it

And obligatory forum thread full of resources

New Eve Video
CCP put out a new video recently. I hadn’t checked it out until now. It is actually pretty cool, it reminds me of that goon propoganda poster from a while back (posted below video).

Adventures in Wormhole Space
My mains corp left 0.0 recently. I think it was just time to go. Things had been going downhill and people werent having fun in the 0.0 big alliance game, so we said our goodbyes and got our stuff out.
We recently (ok as in I am in voice comms now as were deploying the pos) started deploying a pos in a class 2 wormhole. 
They probably aren’t the most profitable wormholes, but were out here to kick back and have fun without the politics.
I can’t wait to see what wormhole space has to offer!
On the bad side, we had a bit of a rough night deploying the tower itself. We got attacked by 3 pilots that tried to “sell us the system”. heh. We had a few cloaky haulers, me in a drake and another pilot in a sliepner. They brought 2 drakes (fitting with tackle mods, sacrificing tank) and an Armageddon. We lost the fight, but in hindsight we could have adjusted tactics and maybe could have brought down at least one of them (or given them a bit more of a scare).

Empire Bound
I made a very hard decision recently.. I left my old corp.
I have been playing with them since 2006 and for almost all of that time we have been in 0.0. It wasn’t enjoyable for me any more, but I enjoyed the people so I stuck around for a long time. I finally just dropped co
rp recently and relocated to empire.
Instead I set up a little industrial complex in empire. I have my little corp as part of New Eden Research, where I have labs that anyone int he alliance can use for ME and PE research. I also can let in people into the corp directly to do copying, me, pe, invention and reverse engineering (and use the manufacturing arrays if/when they are open). I don’t have many folks in the corp directly, but its out there.
All in all, I still do keep in touch with my 0.0 friends, and I am enjoyign running my bpo copying/manufacturing business. Between a new job, eq2 and eve I keep busy so the pace here is nice.

Its official
Well, I capped out the AA finally for the current expansion. I got my 200th AA point today!
As for what now until next expansion? I have 8 masters to get, so I will be working on cash to buy those (I should be able to get 1 or 2 from the research assistant at least), as well as finally maxing out sage.
yay!

Apocrypha
I was on my alliance forums today and some of the guys were talking about Apocrypha. In there was these screenshots. CCP certainly knows how to make a visually stunning game. I can’t wait to get out there and see these for myself (and get farmed by the new Sleeper AI)

It has been a while since I did a blog post. I am finally moved in to the new house. Not unpacked, but I am here. Hopefully soon I should be able to blog a bit more and get involved with the blog banter.
See you all soon!
