Howdy folks,
As mentioned in my latest Dev Blog, we will have the new Captains Quarters up for public testing and feedback, beginning Thursday, April 21 until Monday, April 25. (ie. you can finally walk in a station!) CCP Devs will be on-hand to help guide players through the new tutorials, answer questions, etc. on Thursday April 21 between 17:00 and 19:00 GMT.
Details are in the blog, but here's the gist of it:
- Minmatar Captains Quarters, new tutorials, and new crash-course on Duality beginning on Thursday, April 21, in the Emrayur system - This build is not fully stable or complete, you have been warned! Captain's Quarters are "work-in-progress", but contains interfaces for: -- Planetary Interaction -- Corporation management/recruitment -- Character re-customization -- Ship fitting
We are looking for feedback on:
- The look, feel, and general impressions on the Captain's Quarters as a replacement for the current hangar-view
- The usability, accuracy, flow, and completeness of the new Crash-Course
- The usability and completeness of the new in-station tutorials
How to participate:
- You can find the Duality installer here. - Don't forget to create a shortcut to eve.exe and add " /server:duality" [note the space] in order to connect to the correct server. - Create a new character that is Amarr and in the Royal Amarr Institute school. (You should start in the Emrayur system) - Join chat channels: -- "CQ Info" and "CQ Testing"
!*! Please bear in mind that this is NOT a final/stable build, expect there to be bugs! !*!
This build is to give everyone a chance to play around with the new shiny toys, and to give us your impressions, suggestions, and critical feedback. We are already aware of issues with female animations, memory leaks, and client performance in this build.
Give us your feedback!
Once you've had a chance to play around with the new CQ, Tutorials, and Crash Course, please post your feedback here, using the following template:
!*! All questions should be rated 1-5 (1=Terrible, 5=Awesome) !*!
1. Initial Tutorials: Rate the tutorials that explain Incarna navigation and Skills prior to the first mission description (1-5 scale)
2. Mission 1: Rate the first Mission and the associated tutorials
3. Mission 2: Rate the tutorials after returning from Mission 1 and the Objectives and tutorials of Mission 2.
4. Mission 3: Rate Mission 3 and the associated tutorials
5. CaptainÆs Quarters General Feedback -- a. Rate the overall 'feel' of the CQ -- b. Rate the Layout of the CQ
6. General feedback - In your own words, please provide general feedback for the new CQ/Tutorial experience. Also feel free to give us any comments, concerns, suggestions, and problems you encountered.

Also inb4 Akita-T rage on: Originally by: The Blag The look, feel, and general impressions on the Captain's Quarters as a replacement for the current hangar-view
Originally by: More Blag The new Captain's Quarters currently replaces the old hangar/station environment, so you will find yourself there instead, upon docking.

Tutorial missions to introduce players to the Incarna interface?
Excellent. I wasn't sure you had gotten to that point. ===== The world will not end in 2012, however there will be a serious nerf to Planetary Interaction. |

Hehe, nice one CCP. It's about time. Of course, I'm not expecting any rainbows nor unicorns considering that anything on Duality and Sisi is just an imcomplete version of the final release.

OMG OMG OMG
O:
I've been waiting 3 years. How do I make sure I'm active for the duality test server? please maybe if someone could check for me? If I'm reactivated on the test server am I also on the duality server?
I hope the new tutorial isn't pop up windows. You should use the 3d UI to it's full potential.

Is the version of duality I install today going to be ready to run with CQ, or should I not bother installing until test day?

Might want to make it more obvious on the download page that its duality that you're downloading. having '?s=Duality' in the URL isn't enough and threw me for a moment. One of the many faces of Mandrill @Mandrill - Website email |

Technically you can use any character, but it's definitely easiest to start as an Amarr in the Royal Amarr Institute, since that way you begin in Emrayur (the only place the new NPE is being "hosted" right now).

well, firstly, you've been trolling the forums pretty heavily the past week or two, so it's probably good to just not tell you about how to participate. secondly, lrn2read. Dev blog said testing doesn't open up until Thursday. That's significantly more than 10 hours. lrn2math.

You don't need to create a new character to test the NPE. Any character will do. It's just easier to create one, since it saves travel time, etc.
Edit: Quote fail. Edit2: Oh and as mentioned, there's also plenty of time to biomass a character, if you do want to do it as a brand new character. Either works.

go do it right now? a day before the test?
oh wait, is the server not open until the test? if not then we've got even bigger problems, a 8Gb patch will come out 2 hours before the test and no one will be able to download and opatch in time for the testing period.
CCP, haven't you learned yet? you need to have the whole thing up and playable a DAY beforehand. so we have a chance to patch.

Yeah, we really want to be clear about this being a very rough build.
There is a lot that is still using placeholder data and art, and very little has been optimized yet. Here's a brief rundown:
- Almost nothing is optimized yet, expect delays in load-times, etc. - The Character re-customization mirror is not properly lit, thus VERY hard to see. - Entering game after re-customizing your character breaks the camera - None of the art/textures are in a final state yet - And there's a load of more minor things that we know still need to be cleaned up, optimized, or otherwise fixed.

Thanks to people like you testing the game and unable to identify bugs and problems we trolls can continue whining about the broken unfinished unpolished game of EVE beta. o7
Seriously though, looking forward to the amazing bugfest in this first release of CQ. Expecting colorful bugs.
