Month in Review

It's been a while since I last posted here, mostly because I haven't been playing nearly as much of late as I had been before. There's been a couple reasons for this, most of it coming from that thing called life. Went to a wedding a couple weeks back, and came back with a graphics card which far outclassed what I had in my machine. The issue being, I haven't been able to get my computer stable since then (Drivers crashing), and I've prettymuch come down to it being my motherboard not liking an AMD card (had nVidia before).

Now, I would have gotten a new nVidia card by now, (the old one is promised to a friend already), but my car has proceeded to eat all my extra cash, though with a paycheque coming on Monday, I should have the money to get a new card sooner rather then later.


The other thing is, I've been getting a little tired of what I can currently fly, and have a few more major things coming down the pipe that more and more I've been wanting to just wait for and fly before I do much else.


Anyways, all in all because of this, it's been a fairly slow month for me, with my worst ISK efficiency since my first month of PvP. 39 kills, 12 losses. I didn't get many ~goodfites~, and most of the kills were low-value overall. I also tended to fight when I knew I shouldn't, against people that I know don't like fighting unless they've got the odds swung massively in their favour, along with flying more expensive ships overall.

It's been interesting. I look forward to getting back into the swing of things soon, though Guildwars 2 may eat up a chunk of my time once I actually end up getting that.

  1. It's hard to get back into after a break, isn't it?

    This is why I hate AMD cards. I don't know why, but their drivers always seem to suck for the first year that the card comes out. After that the drivers are fine. This is especially true with Linux. On the other hand, I never seem to have issues with Nvidia cards on windows or linux.

    1. The thing is, this isn't even a new card, though I have read the newer drivers can have issues (but the older ones haven't been any better). Oh well, I got a good deal on the card from family, I should be able to get my money back out of it easily.
