Crimson Harvest Has Begun!

[h3]Devilish capsuleers,[/h3]

Crimson Harvest is here, so it’s time to head out there to cause mayhem in a nightmarish New Eden. Expect monstrous loot drops, horrific in-game events, and blood-curdling rewards from 5 October to 6 November.

Log in today to start reaping the daily login rewards, which include boosters, SKINs, EverMarks, Skill Points and more. Not only will there be rewards given every day to those logging in, the 25th login during Crimson Harvest will be rewarded with 250,000 skill points for Omega and 75,000 for Alpha capsuleers.


[h2]HARVEST OF HORRORS[/h2]



To get involved you just need to pick a side in the bloody conflict between the Blood Raider Covenant and the Order of Tetrimon. You will find combat and hacking sites scattered throughout Highsec, Lowsec, Nullsec, and wormhole systems with combat sites appearing as anomalies in the Probe Scanner. Head into your preferred area of space, use the Agency Anomaly Scanner to scan down sites, then warp in to take on a series of frightening challenges in the dungeons that await. In-game Community Fittings, supplied by EVE Partners and players, will be available during the event so you can put your best fit on. More challenging sites, promising even greater rewards, can be found by those who dare to dig deeper into the mysteries of the void.

Additionally, since it is the season of wanton murder, PvP kills will drop loot at a higher rate, around 90% instead of the regular 50%.

To kick things off, the EVE Store is offering a 50% discount on Omega + MCT bundles for a limited time, and as the event continues, more devilish discounts will drop, so keep your eyeballs thoroughly peeled.

Also make sure to keep your eye on CCPTV for some terrifying Twitch drops, giving you the chance to snatch up some free goodies every week.

Awakening Zarzakh – Aid the Deathless

[h3]Chaotic capsuleers,[/h3]

Zarzakh has been waiting, and the gates have now been opened! This mysterious and ancient star system - accessed via the Jovian gates in the Turnur, Alsavoinon, H-PA29, and G-0Q86 solar systems - is controlled by the Deathless Circle, with their Angel Cartel and Guristas pirate allies granted sanctuary within. However, from deep inside the enormous Jovian station called “The Fulcrum” where he resides, The Deathless needs capsuleer assistance to bring this mammoth station’s power back up to full operating potential. 

Between now and 14 November, to aid the Deathless Circle in their endeavor, you will need raid specific wormhole sites to collect resources and return them to Zarzakh where you will be rewarded with pirate Loyalty Point tokens.



Manufacture coalesced elements from blueprints and individual elements that drop in Drifter Hive wormhole sites, and collect Element Containment Vessels from Sleeper relic sites in standard wormholes, plus Element Control Data from Sleeper data sites, then return one of each to The Fulcrum in Zarzakh in exchange for a single pirate LP token. These LP tokens can then be traded in at existing Angel Cartel and Guristas LP stores for blueprint copies of the new Angel Cartel Mekubal-class destroyer and Guristas Mamba-class destroyer. 



To get your hands on these ships before the Havoc expansion launches on 14 November, and to start helping The Deathless unlock the secrets of Zarzakh and inflict chaos on the frontlines, get exploring and raiding to collect those essential materials! 

CCP's CEO on life, the universe, and EVE Online: 'It's worthwhile to spend our lives taking care of it'




t the recent EVE Fanfest, PC Gamer had the opportunity to sit down with CCP CEO Hilmar Veigar Pétursson, who since the company's founding has been something of a presiding spirit over EVE Online. Pétursson has helmed CCP through good times and bad, contraction and expansion, but from the outside this looks like a time of rude health for CCP and EVE, with this Fanfest seeing the announcement of new FPS EVE Vanguard alongside the Havoc expansion and a new mobile title. We began with the shooter, before branching out into everything else...

Eve Online's greatest stories belong to its players

The thing that struck me the most during my time at Eve Fanfest in Reykjavik, Iceland was the players. Eve Online fans, or Capsuleers, are some of the warmest, most welcoming people I've had the pleasure of meeting, and their dedication and passion for CCP Games' MMO shine through at every given opportunity.
