So bear with me this is a different direction than I think eve really has had.
The captains quarters upgrade changed a lot of the way people see the game. you are a person immortal in many ways but none the less you are the man in your profile picture... The captains quarters is slow as a UI, So a quick change is needed.... Shift to RUN. that is step one in establishing a more realistic embedding of Role playing as a character... taking 2 minutes form sitting to ship dock is too slow. so there is one fix.
THE BIG CHANGE
Everyone want the door from your quarters to go to somewhere. Jita and other trade hubs make this impossible to open to the full station but lets take a step back and see how the game is logically divided.
any long term player that understand synergy understands why joining a good corp is a benefit. not to mention the quality of people you meet in them really an epic idea. These corporations are where the first step is made available. Corporations have to rent space in stations for offices. lets make this rent worth the money. give that corp an option to have a corporate Office space. fit with some light mini games, couches, maybe even a TV that you can use to access youtube in game. More important features like a Meeting room with a table that uses holographic images to show data as presented during the meeting... like ship fitting, list of items used the ship shown options to pull up that info in a more visually astounding way through interactive holographic display over menus.
so now we have a meeting room and a lounge of sorts lets consider additional options for corporate directors. an office for each so that when they log in they are accessible by their virtual counterparts immediately and they have access to key data like war reports and wallet info all on holographic displays like seen in the captains quarters.
Now fast forward, your corp is at war, your waiting for the time to strike as an enemy enters local, alone, the lounge clears out as people frantically go to board ships and engage the target. this adds a more human nature to the game interacting on a personal level.
Don't get me wrong in no way do i want a first person shooter to come from eve, DUST excluded but also something that could be added into the game easily. as this gives players a chance to see and talk with DUST players in a common area. given this might mean dust is going to need a "facelift" literally like that that eve received with character development.
Now for those people out there that don't want to use this.. you don't have to, for those that want a more in depth game play lets look at the next level realistically first. not jump the gun to a full station access.
LOOKING PAST THE MAIN IDEA.
lets be realistic this proposition will take time, a lot of it. but eventually we will be looking for something more...... An alliance Office, like an upgraded corp office, more spacious, more customization and more costly to rent out. Its 3 am here so I've got nothing on what to do differently here other than make it bigger and better for the alliance level... Alliance kill board or something on the walls. with scope TV running with live reports from battles in null and low. making it so you don't need to be on facebook or the internet page to see hey something big is happening like the gall navy jumping a Caldari titan in high sec. that is big news to the point where a TV broadcast from Scope, like we have seen before, comes up in game.
these are the first steps past that there are many options but the door needs to lead somewhere. lets make it work for everyone's favor. |
