New GalNet StreamCast SKINs arrive on CCP TV

Hello spacefriends,

As you may know, viewers of CCP's Twitch channel are able to use their accumulated channel points to claim the gorgeous GalNet StreamCast SKINs across 12 different hulls. The current batch has been in circulation for some time now and we're pleased to announce the release of 10 fresh new SKINs in the GalNet StreamCast line for CCP Twitch enjoyers.

The 10 new SKINs are available for the following hulls:



[h2]HOW TO OBTAIN THESE SKINS[/h2]

It's easy! Just keep an eye on our Twitch schedule, livestream event postings on the official Discord, and occasional in-game notifications for certain streams. Then tune in to CCP TV whenever we're live and you'll begin earning channel points just for watching.

Make sure you've registered your in-game name with the Eve2Twitch bot that lurks in our channel. Just type !ign followed by your character name in chat:



Please be aware that the bot can experience difficulty trying to deliver SKINs to names with non-alphanumeric characters in them, so if your main character's name includes things like apostrophes (') or hyphens (-) you should register using the name of an alt. In the event that the bot is unable to successfully complete the delivery of a SKIN, the request will be declined and your channel points refunded.

Once you've accumulated 10,000 channel points you can claim a code for a random GalNet StreamCast SKIN:



Within a few minutes you will receive an in-game evemail to the character you registered on the Eve2Twitch bot containing your code and instructions on how to activate it:



And that's it!

GalNet StreamCast SKINs don't auto inject so you can freely trade them between characters and if you end up with duplicates you can give them away to friends or sell them on the in-game market.

The previous batch of GalNet StreamCast SKINs are being temporarily removed from the bot's database, so that means the next SKIN you claim is guaranteed to be one of the new ones! After a period of time codes for older SKINs will be readded - albeit at a lower ratio - so that new viewers will still have a chance to obtain them.

Your first opportunity to get the new SKINs will be this Friday from 15:00 UTC when we bring you our weekly LIVE2FEED developer roam, so make sure to tune in!

Impact the War - 1 PLEX Omega

[h3]Capsuleers, it’s time to make an impact![/h3]

For just 1 PLEX, you can upgrade to Omega for 3 days in EVE’s in-game New Eden Store. This offer ends at 11:00 UTC on 27th March. This will give you access to better ships, better modules to equip it with, and better skills to unlock more activities.

You can use your Omega status to upgrade your ship and make a bigger impact in Factional Warfare, serving your chosen empire more effectively! Remember, thanks to the new Direct Enlistment feature you can now join Factional Warfare without leaving your current player corporation or alliance.

You can also do more in the Shadow War event with Omega, such as flying assault frigates more effectively in Waylaid Courier sites when salvaging for secret research fragments, and manufacturing completed datacores from those fragments that can then be delivered back to your empire for rewards and progression points. Make sure you queue up and train the necessary skills for these activities if you have not yet done so!

EVE players are in revolt over CCP's blockchain plans—'If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again to chase your player base away with crypto'




EVE Online maker CCP Games announced Project Awakening yesterday, a new game set in the EVE universe that threatens to "combine CCP’s 25 years of game design experience with the latest in blockchain technology." And while the reaction from various crypto pundits and people with ".eth" in their Twitter usernames was predictably bullish, swathes of the EVE Online community have responded with, well, scorn. Just pure, unbridled scorn...
