It’s time to continue the conversation around Quasar, the underlying ecosystem for modern development in EVE Online. Since its introduction at Fanfest 2022, it has become the foundation for several major advancements, including:
This journey, a part of EVE Evolved, has touched on set theory, graph theory, and, uh… color theory. Today, however, the focus is on the technology powering capsuleer-created ship SKINs, because it is much more than just a fancy editor and shader wizardry! In fact, it is a key part of unlocking future capabilities for server performance. Brace yourself, though, as a few technical crash courses will be needed to appreciate the ins and outs of what the team has been up to.
One of the most common challenges in multiplayer games is its network architecture, colloquially referred to as “...

Effective immediately, it is considered an exploit to fire any weapon systems from a ship sitting inside a POS forcefield at a target outside of that POS forcefield. Forcefields around a POS are intended to be impenetrable with no way to target or damage anyone outside of them when inside the field, nor take any damage or be targeted when inside the field by someone outside of it.
Players who are found to be using firing through POS forcefields in this manner will face disciplinary actions as per the Terms of Service.
Battle-ready capsuleers,
The Drifters have struck and New Eden has answered. From highsec to lowsec, fleets have formed, ships have fallen, and puzzling information is coming to light. The latest intel has been gathered, and it paints a picture of war.
Amid the chaos, the Arataka Research Consortium and other dedicated groups have uncovered fragments of a mystery lurking out there, leading to rumors and theories, all of which remain unconfirmed at this time.
The Drifters are not an untouchable force. They fall to disciplined fleets, coordinated fire, and capsuleers who dare stand their ground. This is not a battle for the elite, but a war for all of New Eden, with skirmishes taking place in lowsec and even highsec. A well-piloted Tech I cruiser,...

... Read moreCapsuleers,
EVE Online uniquely allows players to explore the vastness of space, engage in a complex and ever-evolving community, and carve out a place in a living universe. At the heart of that experience is your ship – your identity in New Eden.
As part of EVE Evolved, changes have been made recently to elevate ships beyond other items in the inventory, overhauling how they are presented and interacted with. These updates are not just visual improvements - they enhance usability, refine how ships are represented in the game, and lay the groundwork for further improvements.
The first baby step toward improving ship interaction and giving your vessels the spotlight they deserve was the introduction of ship cards in the hangar. This goal is to bring more information to the forefront, making it easier to see ship types at a glance, and providing quick access to traits and fitting details for owned ships.
Visionary capsuleers,
New Eden is never static, constantly in flux, and ever evolving. Every connection, every ship, and every interaction in the cluster is part of this vision: a living, breathing universe that endures forever. This is where EVE Evolved comes in. A commitment to continuous innovation and technological advancements that bring you a smoother, richer, and more immersive experience, it has already brought many significant technical improvements to EVE Online in recent years, including DirectX 12, Photon UI, and much more.
This February, we want to highlight some of the technical challenges and innovations that go into improving your experience today while laying strong foundations for tomorrow, whi...

A storm is brewing in New Eden. The Drifters have begun their largest offensive yet, launching coordinated strikes across highsec and lowsec star systems to test the limits of those who defend New Eden. The empires are under attack, and you are called upon to respond.
As the Drifters extend their aggression in New Eden beyond Zarzakh, capsuleers will encounter them in multiple systems in highsec and lowsec, and pilots of all skill levels are called upon to assist in beating the threat back. Various sites and activities are available to Tech I ships up to battlecruiser class. These engagements are perfect for small gangs and provide opportunities for exploration, salvaging, and enforcer career followers to thrive. Eliminating threats will unlock a Crisis Resolution operation at the heart of the affected systems, the successful completion of which will force the Drifters to withdraw and regroup.
Chatty capsuleers,
The communications channels of New Eden are about to become clearer. As part of EVE Evolved, local chat, the lifeblood of social connections and battlefield intelligence, is moving to the state-of-the-art Quasar infrastructure. This evolution will deliver increased reliability and stability, so you can focus on what truly matters: strategy, survival, and supremacy.
To ensure this system is battle-ready, your presence is needed in the upcoming Singularity Mass Test on 31 January at 18:00 UTC. Answer the call and earn 150 Large Skill Injectors, as a token of gratitude for your service. The Skill Injectors will be awarded on Singularity, which will remain open until 3 February for further testing, so you can have so...

Read moreVisionary capsuleers,
2024 was a year of bold moves, monumental clashes, and unrelenting creativity, and the foundations that have been laid will continue to be built upon in 2025 and beyond.
In the first EVE Online Directors’ Chat of 2025 CCP Burger, CCP Okami and CCP Rattati talk to CCP Swift about some of the astounding things that players achieved in 2024, give a little insight into what can be expected in the two expansions coming in 2025, and discuss what an expansion means for EVE Online. The chat also touches on some changes and activities that players can expect to see in the game soon, a path to healthy projection, and much more.
