been flying around eve for a few years now. i can remember back in the day goin to different systems and being in awe of how cool they looked. but that quickly wore off and now i dont pay atention to space backgrounds at all.
been looking at hubbl's photos recently and thought why not make eve space absolutly stunning in some places, even go as far to say as make it 3d so we can sit in the middle of huge clouds of gas instead of it just being a fixed picture.
ofcourse i understand eve needs to be dark and mysterios so why not make some systems very bland and some full of anomalies,
if your wondering what im on about http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a3/Ssc2006-21a1.jpg
This goes well beyond backgrounds and gas clouds. We have the same freakin' belts and moons from one end of EVE to the other, and literally no section of space is different than any other as far as anyone is concerned, with the sole exception of some really stunning (and lethal) colored cloud environments in a few storyline missions.
Why cant we have different attributes for space based on what and where it is? This has been suggested dozens of times over the last couple of years - ideas like making it possible to hide from scan in belts, or have your sensors ****ed up when you're too close to the sun. Hell, maybe even more of those lethal cloud places, they were badass.
Instead... we got nothin. There is nothing to explore; a station is a station, a belt is a belt, a gate is a gate, a mission site is a mission site, and thats it. All of every type is essentially the same, and the only difference between all of them is the station, the rocks, the gate, etc.
No unexplained occurences.
No cool Space Stuff, of the kind which is, well, likely to happen Space.
If you've seen ONE system in EVE, you've seen them all. All the cool gameplay mechanics and high quality art in the world won't make up for that.
It's perfectly reasonable that they've simply been busy working on, well, everything else, but we'd still love to see that sorta stuff. |
