If you're a fan of EVE Online, missing this year's fanfest is unpleasant... but unless you're taking a trip out to Iceland, it's also a sad reality. However, the livestream of the important events does at least help to take the edge off, giving players watching from afar a taste of what's going down at the gathering. The official schedule for the stream has just been posted, which gives everyone an idea of what to expect from the event.
Players can either watch the stream free in normal quality on EVE TV or purchase the HD version for a nominal fee. (Purchasing the HD version also offers players a small promotional item for their characters by way of an additional carrot.) The livestream service currently is not planned to be recordable, so if you're considering shelling out money to watch the latest EVE Online gathering, there's that much more reason to check the schedule and make sure you won't be missing anything.

Working half of Friday and flying home on Saturday, so i'll miss most of the live coverage :(.
They mentioned that the livestream can be watched only live, no option to watch it later.
Any idea if that that means all recordings, even on their part? More specifically, will the talks and roundtables and everything be uploaded to youtube, like they did with the last fanfest?

I'm looking forward to hearing more about Dust 514. They've been quiet on it for awhile.

@HokieKC
There will surely be some new info about 514. Not sure how much, but they'll talk a bit more at least about the Dust and EVE interactions...there's a roundtable on Saturday or something like that about the subject, so that might be the main subject. But CCP Presents will cover Dust, hopefully at least a good 15-20 mins.
What i'm looking forward the most is WoD news. EVE portraits are online, most of the full body stuff has to be quite ready and the Atlanta office has been working for some time now. All i'm saying is that it's time for something other than the bald guy teaser.
...and a second Permaband song...

i could be wrong, but the content of that conference looks very disheartening. character creator? incursions? yeah, we know. it's done, it's over. what bout FW, T3, balancing issues, new and interesting space ship stuff? i can only hope the actual game (i.e. space MMO) will get some love.

@(Unverified) The schedule you're seeing is just the livestream schedule, which misses a lot of what goes on at fanfest. There will be discussions and presentations on all those topics, but only fanfest attendees will be able to take part.
