As you are new to EVE online, there is something important you should get to know in your mind. As you know, it's challenge for you to jump into a new game. Mostly EVE online take challenges seriously. As a newbie, should you shy away from it?
Before playing it, you should know race guide which gives you some tips that will get you through character creation. It's better for you to do a little research on what you'd like to play and create your character than just jumping in blindly. Deleting a character isn't instantaneous and this is not a game that is very alt character friendly. Once you've made your choices and get logged in, you are ready to get to know this exciting new world!
When you log in, your home space station is the first thing you see. It has everything you need so you might want to make note of where you are. The next thing you might notice is some chickie talking at you. This is your Aura your tutorial guide and you will want to make the most of her by doing every single thing she says. It is lucky that she is always there in case you need her. If you take no notice of closing the tutorial, you can open it back up by clicking the "help" tab on the side bar in game and choosing the "tutorial" tab all the way. Either you can pick and choose topics ranging from beginning to advanced or choose "Beginner Tutorials" and "Aura: Tutorial" to restart the walk through.
Your chat box is another life saver. You'll see a "Rookie Help" tab and keep it on that tab just to watch some of the chat spam. In there you can ask questions no matter how big or small at random, someone will answer them to assist the new players.
All over the university, there are some stations available for you and each has various features. See below:
What you store in one space station under your "Items" tab doesn't carry over to another. You can see in your "Assets" tab what you have and where it is at but it's likely a good idea not to spread too much around until you know your way around the universe a bit better.
Station Services is the stuff that you can only do on stations and you'll find that not all stations have all services! The big ones to note right off the bat are the Repair-shop, the Market, and Fitting. Fix what you have, buy new stuff, and put it on your ship all in one nifty location!
Agents are the guys that give you stuff to do and pay you to do it. The first thing about them is they are easily snubbed. Don't take a mission from an agent unless you intend to complete it. Once a mission is offered to you, you have a certain amount of time to accept or deny it. If you deny too many or fail to complete missions, an agent will no longer work with you. Don't worry, if you tick one off accidentally, there are always more agents at other stations that will give you work.
Ships are where you store your babies and you'll find out that building ships and changing them out can be downright addictive. The "Ships" tab will open up a window that will show you what you have and allow you to switch between ships. You start out with a very flimsy rig but no worries; you'll soon have enough cash to get a small upgrade.
Character Sheet tells of all the vital information regarding your character! Here you will find your skills, attributes, and other interesting little tidbits.
You can take some time to look at all your windows while you are docked. In the pinch, you must get to know your station if you are unsure of what something is for.
