What does EVE:Tyrannis offer for the casual, solo gamer

eve-online

Used to play EVE a few years back, got to around 3mil SP I think, so not really that good to be honest

Just looked up the latest patch, looks quite good.

What does the game offer for a solo casual gamer? Thinking of dipping back in, but don't have a guild/corp so would that mean planetary stuff is off limits?

It depends what area of the game interests you most.

You can certainly become a trader, miner or manufacturer on your own, however I think the game comes into it's own when you're part of a larger entity where your contribution really matters.

In terms of planetary stuff, have a look here: http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/w/index.php?title=Planetary_Commodities I'm up to tier 2, and could get to tier 3 on my own, but the trick is to find the right commodity to invest your time in. (as always).

Planetary manufacturing is almost solely single player at the moment as you cannot set up automatic manufacturing between different players at the moment.
