Yes i know this topic has been talked to death really, but i was just wondering if the community as a whole has any good idea's no how you could implement the walking in stations more then just a social outlet while waiting for skills or a siege to stop.
What i mean by this is of course the much talked about mini games like poker, gambling with your isk, that kind of stuff. Perhaps having the ability to get your charactor drunk off spiked Quafe! Ability to play games like chess or checkers.
As for more then just the social aspect of it, perhaps having this part of the game encorporate with Missions. Let me explain on a possible scenario. This idea came to me yesterday when i was doing a lvl3 guristas extrav. mission for caldari navy. I completed the mission and moved onto the bonus phase where there is a guristas war station surounded by rats, what if, the mission gave some kind of "special bonus" for destroying the war factory, and in order to do this, you'd have to dock at the station, and plant bombs in several places inside the station and undock before it blew?
Yes eve is a space game, but as this would just be a Bonus, you DONT have to do it. So all those that are already hating the idea of walking around in stations still dont HAVE to do this. Totally 100% optional. This would mean more interation with the enviroment and you could really lay down some rather awsome and interestion story lines especially when the factional warfare comes into part. You could even have it so that you may have to steal a very important piece of technology or doccuments and undock into a bunch of rats before you could escape.
Having the ability to set tasks inside stations would open a whole new look to walking in stations. Granted this will never happen, but do any of you think CCP could use the walking in stations in a lot of different ways rather then just this social aspect. I'd like to hear more along the lines of idea's rather then "No way this sucks" pls. just some constructive critism.

Edited by: Blind Man on 03/09/2007 20:28:54 tbh i really only want walking in stations to be a social tool.. missions in stuff, go get this, plant bombs here, whatever will be WoW in space if not done VERY well
as for bars and minigames yes all the venues in stations will be player owned including bars, shops, casinos, etc.

Yes, I believe things like that are going to be implemented once they have the 3D engine ready. The social chat rooms with games is just a starting point. Then I think they will most likely integrate it more and more in Eve.
But as Blind Man says, it has to be done really well for it to be good, and feel like Eve.

Edited by: Titas Agor on 03/09/2007 20:40:14 thx for the replies, that link was a good read. I like the idea of walking around in your own spaceships, jus imagine what they could do with a mothership or titan lol.. This would give an interesting aspect of perhaps having other ppl able to board on your ship or have a social gathering inside a ship. Would give a new meaning to the word "passengers"
yes it would have to be done VERY well, and to be honnest, from the video nad pictures i've seen, it looks like its gonna be done exremely well, and with the great envireoments of space they could have, like planetry landings perhaps. Looking outside of a ships window and a kool looking nebula. As i said all this would be totally 100% optional, you dont have to do this stuff if u didn't want to, and i think you'll only be able to do it if u have vista anyway.

The mini games was one of the things i really really loved about ff series, not the same thing by miles but if they did do it just right then i think it would be a good thing. Would have to be careful not to make it too fluffy and cuddly though

the eve universe is a shady one, so with it go shady games and entertainment, so i think the station need bars where people can gamble their money away, on and exotic dancers u can waste ur money on by stuffing it down their pants.
mebbe in a long loong time, stations can get sec ratings too and u can have (knife)fights in certain areas the lower sec ones, now that would suit this cutthroat universe just fine impo
CCP, let us pay the online shop with Direct Debit!!! Magners is now recruiting, evemail me or Dagazbo ingame.

without typing much..
if Eve cop.. I mean acquires some of the features in Uncharted waters online (Japanese) or Pirates of the Burning Seas
it would make the walking in station thing so much cooler than just a social tool....

the idea is great but having a third person character of ship in the station walking getting drunk and gamblink is not so easy, adn remember we desigened the picture of the character, not the entire body of it. Means if they wanna do this they have to remake the character creating menu and modifie more than 40k players one by one like theplayer wants.
kidna hard isnt?
the idea is great i would love to have that but i see it very hard.

It would just be eye candy and a social tool to me. And to be honest, that's enough to get me to try it. Problem is I doubt my graphics card and stuff can really handle it. So I'd probably end up avoiding it out of necessity, even if I'd be interested in at least trying it.

Yeah the charactor creating stuff might be kinda hard... but as far as i remember, i may be mistaken tho, but im sure when the news about the walking in stations first hit the eve community, there was talking about CCP letting you be able to re-create the look of your character when this finnally hits our clients. I dunno if this was true or speculation or not, but i think they might anble you to re-create the char (of course not loosing the SP) but how i dont know, otherwise i dont think you could do it without being able to create a body for yourself.

yes, theres uncharted waters online
/hijacks
google up "The Great Voyage online' (well, that name is the Literal translation of uncharted waters online from Japanese...)
and yes, it is made by Koei.
BUT.. you need an Japanese/Chinese citizenship ID to sign up for it.
and the text is Japanese/Chinese depends on which verison.
they have no intentions of adding it for north America...
but yeah, Pirates of the Burning Seas is close to it... smaller map though... wayyy smaller.....
edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncharted_Waters_Online
here ya go... it explains what happened to it. =P
but yeah, POTBS is coming out near the end of this year, is good too!
I mean, they the equaluvent of a variable sec status, "highsec" can change to "lowsec" and vice versa depends on player actions.
