Netflix and Eve Online

Possible spoilers ahead, you've been warned.

Recently appearing on Netflix, at least in Australia, is the Iceland based crime series, The Valhalla Murders.



It's a fairly typical Scandinavian crime series, long shots of the panoramic scenery, the cold, the desolation, you get the idea.

However in episode three, surprisingly, it has a mention of EVE Online, EVE Valkyrie, and then soon afterwards, a short game play demonstration.  Further on in the series EVE Valkyrie is mentioned again.



As the series is based in Iceland it isn't too outlandish that CCP had some sort of sway over the creators, and that would explain their addition, but it could also just be a coincidence.

I've approached CCP for comment and have yet to receive a reply at the time of writing.

Occator the Mission Breaker




A storyline mission appeared, after I'd completed sixteen normal missions?

I think that's correct.

However Eve doesn't detect the mission loot in the fleet hanger properly so it complains.

Given the ship type this isn't going to be a newbie problem, but I would have expected it to have been fixed by now.

Firing up a support ticket.
