Entropia Universe: New Players Guide

Entropia Universe is free to play with only a client to download and install. This game has a real-cash economy which means you can make actually money in the game and transfer it to your bank account. Depositing cash in the game will allow you to develop your character at a faster speed. The game currency is called Project Entropia Dollars or PED for short and yourmoney is stored on your PED card for use throughout the game. After installing you can create a character with the charcater creation system working just like any other MMO. You can only have one character per account so choose a name you can live with before joining the game.

Once you arrive on Calypso you will find yourself without weapons, armor or money and just the clothes on your back. This can be intimidating for the beginner player but it won’t take you long to figure things out. In the arrival area is a layout of your keyboard, which you can mouse over the buttons to see what they do. It is a good idea to study the layout and you can always come back and refer to it later if you need to. You have several paths in Entropia Universe to take. You can mine, hunt, craft, sell, pilot, or be a mindforce user. There are a few other professions but these are the basic ones to know about. It is recommended that you try hunting first as it is the cheapest occupation and the one that most people will pick who don’t deposit money into the game.

You are in an area called Port Atlantis which contains shops, an auction house, and crafting stations. You will also find players selling their goods by the teleporter which allows you to move to other areas of the game world, if you have discovered the teleported on the other side. You should stay in this general area until you get a feel for things, and don’t wander into the wild. If you die your body will transport to the closest location and if you are too far from the port you may end up at an outpost surrounded by hostile creatures. The MMO world of Calypso is gigantic and you can easily get trapped in its wilderness. There are no vehicles in the game so you have to walk, unless you have teleport skills.
