Greetings spacefriends, and welcome back to another edition of the Community Beat! New Eden has been lively these past weeks, both in space and in real life. Let's dive straight in.
Last time we checked in, the Pandemic Horde Keepstar in R-AG7W was sitting under one of the most impressive bubble camps we’ve seen in a while. Since then, the bubblebath reached its inevitable conclusion as the Keepstar finally went down.
Warlock Industries was on-site for the final moments and captured the whole thing. If you’re looking for a recap of the atmosphere, the bubbles and the explosion, this video is well worth the watch:
And now? With Pandemic Horde leaving the region and The Imperium packing up after their deployment, the gates have opened and sovereignty in the Dronelands is up for grabs.
While one Keepstar met a fiery end, another one got given a fresh new skin. Watson Crick has been busy giving the miniature structures from the War For New Eden board game a nice coat of paint.
The next highlight is for capsuleers who prefer spreadsheets over causing explosions. Bill Paid released a great video for players looking to dip their toes into industry. Armed with years of experience teaching newbros the ropes, he breaks down the most common roadblocks that you might come across when starting out.
From the quiet hum of industry, let’s jump back into the action. Argrathar from No Vacancies. shared a great battle recording on his YouTube channel, capturing a brawl between No Vacancies. and L A Z E R H A W K S that delivered plenty of explosions.
And of course, no fight is complete without a battle report to go with it.
Last weekend was a busy one, with two player meets happening on opposite sides of the Atlantic. Both EVE North in Toronto and EVE Amsterdam in, well.. Amsterdam, brought players together to swap stories in real life
EVE North delivered its usual cozy vibes, with players gathering for a relaxed evening with a drink or two. EVE Amsterdam, meanwhile, had a packed schedule with presentations, fleets and workshops. Thanks to Randolph Vangor and Amiomia for organizing these meet ups!
And the year is not over yet! EVE Glasgow's Festive Meet has been announced for 27 December. If you're in the area, don't miss it.
If you're thinking about hosting your own EVE meet up in 2026, we'd love to hear from you. Reach out to us at communityteam@ccpgames.com.
That’s it for this edition of the Community Beat!
