You'd know what would be pretty cool to see? a cg documentary-like video that shows a ship being manufactured...similer to the first minute or so of this oldie

Isn't a firetail just an extra sticky ducktape strip that you then use to attach your modules to your pod?

Lol, I would have thought the Moa/ Gila is a closer representation to the firefly, although that's based purely on the outsides of the ships and their approximate dimensions.
(Edit) Although in hindsight when Kaylee Frye (Jewel Strait) starts hitting the engine with a spanner and hammer.........well that just screams Minmatar to me especially since the whole ship is held together with ducktape and paint.
The cheeter reminds me of a super sized speeder bike from starwars, or am I getting confused with the stabber.......

This has subconsciously influenced me I think. I find myself flying the Comet and I have purchased about 4-6 more of them recently as well. This is obviously a great thing! :) |

Did we do the shut up and take my money bit yet? YES. Love it. Do more, would love another book about Eve, especially one detailing the "technical" details of the ships. Should start making technical details of stations, citadels, POS's, etc too. |

I went and bought a navy comet and then outfitted it with the police skin all because of this......... My clone mother-droid would be so disappointed in me

Ooo, Ooo, OOO.
With fold out expansions to the larger ships........although I've now got visions of 15+ sheets of paper joined together for one Dreadnought... Nevermind a titan or a Citadel..........

This is a Good ThingGäó.
There is one thing that's always bothered me: in many of our ships, particularly the larger ones, there's all these little squares of white light all over the hull. Folks (including me) have called them windows, which implies people walking around behind them (never mind the fact that they'd be weak points in the hull GÇö a lot of weak points). If capsuleer ships have no crew, either these things are not windows, or nobody bothered to get rid of them and the corridors and other crew oriented spaces behind them when the ship was converted for capsuleer use. The latter makes no sense, but if they aren't windows, what are they? |

While it is true what you say, that pod-retrofitted frigates need less crew (in case of frigates, usually one), the most important aspect of the ship (DRONE BAY) has been completely left out. And this is why I don't care how pretty a picture is, and don't drool over artistic skill, if it makes no sense at all. People are way too easily swayed by pretty visuals.
Basically, all ships are retrofitted to house capsules, meaning that there is plenty of maintenance and personnel space which should be otherwise covered. To my knowledge the only ship type that has been "designed for capsuleers" were T3 ships.
So in order to make a fitting, proper, plausible cross-section of ANY ship other than T3, you have to first create the regular crew version of it, and then slap the capsuleer parts on top of it, including possibly more gear to fill some of the areas which are meant to be used by crew. Not all of that space. Because else it's becoming a nightmare for maintenance.
It's not about realism. It's about plausibility in the given setting. I appreciate the artwork and the artist's skillful hand at delivering cross-sections... but it's not really representative of how the ship with the capsule came to be. |

The latter makes no sense, but if they aren't windows, what are they? Kind of a suspension of disbelief. You know, sometimes the artistic scope on the outside is more important than it's actual use to sell a game of "pretty space ships". Sure, the omnipresent reason of "more light means less accidents" could always be brought but that's about it. As I mentioned in my previous post, almost all ships have not been designed for capsuleers but retrofitted to work that way. That means the exterior is largely untouched.
To answer another part of your question, capsuleer ships DO have crews. While CCP tried their damnedest to kill the wiki, with all the lore (and the discrepancy in it), the internet simply does not forget.

Shiny.
When I was a kid, I got one of those books with all the Star Wars ships in cutaway views with parts labeled. I wonder if the EVE version of such a thing would sell.

I would like a package in book form (bonus points if the books are lore-titled I.E. "roden shipyards general systems guide") and also individual posters of various ship models.
Come on CCP, posters of these are way cheaper than actual ship models for my desk. |

Agreed. I would dearly love to see this brought to life. Heck, just some posters would be nice.

I favor the idea of our ships having crew. It makes space feel a bit less lonely.
Eve isn't about flying the biggest ship, or having the biggest guns. It's about finding something you love to do and doing it better. Gallente born. Guristas driven.

The idea behind capsuleers is to significantly reduce the requirement for ship crews and subsequently reduce the number of lives lost in warfare as a result. When you push F1 to fire your guns, you're not relaying an order to a weapons officer to open fire, you are activating them with 'your mind' in the game, as if the ship itself were your body and the guns your limbs. This way, there is no delay between the command to fire, and the actual firing of the guns, making capsuleer-commanded ships so much more superior to crewed ships. You should really read into the lore about it. If I knew where to look I'd point you at it but you might have to Google a bit yourself.
GÇ£Some capsuleers claim that ECM is 'dishonorable' and 'unfair'.
Jam those ones first, and kill them last.GÇ¥

I'll look at it more later but I'm happy to see development resources spent on this stuff. As gameplay becomes more balanced, perhaps we can begin a wave of immersion development by making more stuff to expand on the lore. I'd like to eventually open that door to exit my CQ, provided the station interiors is done right. It's not spaceship barbies, it's pirates online but I feel you guys are understanding that now. =)
