Hi
Is there a crew in my spaceship when flying, or am I flying it alone ?
What is happening to this spaceship paintshop, will it be in the next patch ?

The pods pilots are suspended in significantly reduces the number of crew but does not remove the need entirely, according to fiction. Possibly you are able to fly frigates by yourself, but certainly not larger ships.

I have no clue. My money are on that it won't be in, though (although I certainly wouldn't be upset if it did make it!).
Don't think CCP have assigned a high priority to this.

Edited by: Lianhaun on 18/02/2004 11:14:53 The capsule your in eliminates the need of a crew since your senses are hooked up on the ship. There is an EVE story about it. I'll look for the link.

Sort of makes a mockery of all the windows in battleships if there's no crew doesn't it? In fact why have such massive ships at all, no my ships have crews stuff the game fiction.
Khabs am pehkt...........seize the stars.

Nope, as mentioned above there is indeed crew for all but the smallest ships. The link to the story "The jovian Wet-grave" is here: http://www.eve-online.com/races/wetgrave/?pp=background,stories
and the relevant part would be this:
"This is a capsule," Anu said to the Caldari. "It is used to control a ship. With it a ship a big as this one can be controlled with only a handful of crew and smaller ships, like your frigates, can even be controlled by a single person."

Back in beta there were stats for all the ships.
All Frigates and Indies have no crew, just you in your pod. Small Cruisers are the same, i.e. Blackbird.
Larger Cruisers have a crew of a few dozen up to a few hundred.
Battleships have a crew of a few hundred to a few thousand.

according to fiction- a frigatte has no crew, its is only controlled by you and your pod, however lesser NPC's that dont have pod technology still use a smal crew in their friggs.
a industrial has a crew about 40-80 if i remember it right. a cruiser about 300, and a battleship about 600.

Even if the ships are all piloted by a single person, most of the designs appear to be quite old (possibly pre-capsule tech) and were probably designed to be operated my many people. Thus windows.

The Ship Database has some graphics that look like schematics and they list crew sizes. A Punisher has a crew of 3 whereas a Maller has a crew of 800. ----------------------------------------- Sig rented by Drethen Nerevitas. |

Just remember that you do not look out of the window of your cocpit. You do not talk person to person with your crew in space. Becouse you my friend are in the capsule/pod.

Edited by: Jeffor on 18/02/2004 13:26:11 In the beta you used to need a skill called "crew management" to fly cruisers.
It prolly got too complicated to implement fully...

How can you expect crew in a ship that once destroyed has just one pod and when that unique pod is destroyed ... u would see just one body?
Would be a good game if for example to fly a Battleship/cruiser would be required more than one player ... example one commander, navigator and gunner ... that is my ideal game which I never saw... virtual crew just to fill up empty spaces on ship description... blhark!!!! ... who cares

oh theres a crew in battleships, but they go down with the ship and are obliterated completely in the explosion, you, tha captain must live to fight again while the crew tries to salvage the ship, by the way, they usually fail :)
if they are equal to you, be prepared, if they are weaker than you, be prepared, if they are stonger than you, be prepared to run,
a saying by.... me!
