Really, how do people inside see the outside or just gaze at the stars? even the cockpit has no windows!
The ships are gorgeous but without windows they just look wrong!
All the ships in eve have windows, every race, every ship small or big or pirate, they all have an appropriate amount of windows.
Seriously, how can you make a spaceship without any windows? imagine a car without windows, just full metal all around!
Just slap some blue/white windows on the SOE ships, doesn't have to be too many, just a bit to make a cockpit and make look lively. |

There are windows, just not many of them. Maybe the ship isn't made for stargazing?

No need for windows due to the electronics plugged into your clone. Not to mention looking out through a window while in your pod would be like driving your car at night in the rain without any windshield wipers on it.

there are no windows on the ships, just a couple of lights!
I am not writing this for RP, the ships just look wrong and immersion breaking without windows.
heck even cargo air planes of today have a few windows here and there. |

Remember they cloak most of the time so they cant have someone looking inside the window to see them in the shower ;) That or it works like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHs08QEjFrw |

All those Camera drones which are how we actually see into space. + ship sensors. It's not like Capsuleers can actually get out & walk around and these ships appear designed pretty much for capsuleers. |

YES, thank you!
Anyway, many ships lack windows, notably the Amarr ones. Very easily explained, for the above reason, the designers decided to go with plenoptic cameras on the hull and on tiny cam drones, which stream the data back to autostereoscopic displays (most likely lenticular arrays) on the inside of the ship, simulating windows. |

Hilarious!
But it is actually true...
Considering the warp system in-game is based upon manipulating space into a bubble around the ship, An alcubierre drive which we are actually try to do in real life, you have to deal with space debris at relativistic speeds.
Windows would basically shatter when an unlucky piece of debris the size of a bottle cap smashes in, and a ship going at speeds past c... will be screwed over. I assume the shields do a majority of mitigating smaller objects but when those go down, your armor is there, which probably shouldn't have windows. |

And you think steel would fare much better when debris hit it at relativistic speeds? |

Quote:The Sisters of EVE (SoE) have added shipbuilding to their portfolio, creating new ships that are utilitarian in design but very pleasing to the eyes. It is said that the the white, windowless design is a symbol of purity, an untainted soul passing through the heavens. |

I don't know if this was modified just now to justify the illogical design or it was this way a long time ago.
In any case, what does the prison-like lack of windows have to do with purity? seriously, it looks like a prison ship!
It's immersion breaking, i actually notice that they're a 3d model when looking at them instead of thinking they're ships.
but i guess that is to be expected, CCP can't accept for anything to be 100% right, everything must be broken one way or another! |

That page was updated recently, within the last week. As far as I know, there were no complaints before the update. As for the rest of the post, it is subjective and not worth commenting on. |
