EVE Vanguard Aims to Be the EVE FPS That Dust 514 Wasn’t - IGN (www.ign.com)

EVE Online's starry realm of New Eden is a vast expanse of more than 7000 star systems, which we have so far experienced almost exclusively from a distance aboard swooping starships or in the colossal interiors of mega-scale space stations. But all the while, I've imagined what might be going on down on these lonely planets I'm sailing by at impossible speeds. EVE Vanguard, a new shooter module for EVE Online built in Unreal Engine 5, will let us set foot on them and scavenge their riches in person. Well, sort of.

This isn't CCP's first attempt at an FPS set in the EVE universe. From 2013 to 2016 they operated Dust 514, an on-foot experience that was eventually shut down due to low player numbers. Vanguard represents a fresh attempt at introducing a human-scale component to EVE, which the developers hope will eventually combine to create a complete sci-fi experience on the ground and in space. Rather than being sold as a separate game, like Dust, Vanguard is being described as a "module" for EVE, which will use the same launcher and be free to play.

Never could break into EVE but I guess it's never too late.

Heck yeah! I'm in Dreddit, the founding corp in TEST Alliance, and we have a mentorship program, free ships/skillbooks/etc program, and a no-nonsense help channel. It's a great place to learn how to play or re-learn after a hiatus. We're in Soverign Null Security Space, which is where all those big EVE stories come from.

For a solid moment I thought this was a bot comment advertising something XP

Not a bot, but I suppose I AM advertising! Recruiting is one of my "space jobs".
