Rastelle Duty.	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:05:00 - [1] sooo ccp, Ambulation is it going to happen?? c/d anyone know??? was it like the Cake??? The Cake Maybe a lie ...... but Beer is good :)
Alora Venoda GalTech Whiskey Creek Alliance	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:08:00 - [2] it would be cool if all the commodities like spirits, frozen foods, etc could be more useful via Ambulation... and i recall something about being able to make clothing? well, any new industrial opportunity is a good one ~~~~~ Remember, EVE is a sandbox and other MMOs are rock gardens. Pretty rocks can be collected, but collecting sand is pointless. Instead build a sandcastle and keep it from being knocked down.
Dirk Magnum Royal Hiigaran Navy SCUM.	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:08:00 - [3] The last time anyone was seriously believing it'd be out by mid-2009 was in mid-2007 or something. Even then such beliefs weren't really backed up by any official CCP announcement IIRC.
JitaBum Gallente Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:12:00 - [4] Yeah the ambulation video at fanfest looked really cool. Then the presenter right-clicked, revealing Eve's nested, hard to read sub-menus of horror. The crowd reeled and the moment was ruined
Neo Omni Gallente	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:12:00 - [5] I'd LOL if it turns out that ambulation wont work on their server after spending so much time on it. Just like the arena mod we were supposed to have.

Just like the arena mod we were supposed to have. No you wouldn't, you'd make a thread whining about it. In much the same way you've made threads whining about almost everything else... For no apparent reason...

Amerilia	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:22:00 - [9] Originally by: Neo Omni Actually ambulation is just fancy chat...i see no point in it. No It¦s not! Make a little research first, you will realise you can actually DO things in the station.
Nova Fox Gallente Novafox Shipyards	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:24:00 - [10] Originally by: Neo Omni OT: Actually ambulation is just fancy chat...i see no point in it. Good I hope you stay blind. Pre-order your Sisters of ≡v≡ Exploration ship today, Updated 19Apr09

Tob Seayours Minmatar Ore Mongers BricK sQuAD.	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:36:00 - [11] I believe it is this winter's big patch.
Amerilia	Posted - 2009.04.28 19:40:00 - [12] Originally by: Tob Seayours I believe it is this winter's big patch. I hope it is. The Arena would have been cool too.
Alora Venoda GalTech Whiskey Creek Alliance	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:04:00 - [13] i think one of the problems that CCP must overcome with ambulation is the issue of it being "very shiny, but not practical". there really needs to be something to do other than chat while "ambulating"... current games with 3-D ambulatory avatars all either keep you occupied with either combat/puzzle scenarios, or doing cosmetic stuff like decorating a house, or playing dress-up, etc. i can imagine having corp/alliance meetings via ambulation, but unless they add really cool interactive collaboration features, i don't really see how it would be worth the effort compared to ventrilo alone. if they added fun mini-games, puzzles, gambling, or any other kinds of "indoor entertainment", i think it could become very popular even if combat isn't an option. if they included a way to decorate your own room or something, and change or even design clothes, i think ambulation may even get more girls involved in EVE... even if they don't ever leave the stations who knows? maybe they will finally find a good use for that charisma attribute when they introduce new mini-professions involving player-owned lounges, casinos, and fashion boutiques ~~~~~ Remember, EVE is a sandbox and other MMOs are rock gardens. Pretty rocks can be collected, but collecting sand is pointless. Instead build a sandcastle and keep it from being knocked down.

Originally by: Amerilia Originally by: Neo Omni Actually ambulation is just fancy chat...i see no point in it. No It¦s not! Make a little research first, you will realise you can actually DO things in the station. Like what? Use the restroom?

It would be good to have contracts and other personal transactions moved to ambulation.
Mors Magne M. Corp Mostly Harmless	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:10:00 - [15] In the latest edition of E-ON, it says Walking In Stations will be in the Winter expansion. They are running a competition to see who can come up with the best name for it. The NEW M.Corp Data Hub - Check it out!
Pharago Gallente Piratas Leprosos Guineanos Black Core Alliance	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:13:00 - [16] it looked very polished and close to be ready in the last fanfest videos, so i want to think it's almost completed, i'd say that by the end of the year or middle of next year we might be walking around outside our pods, unless there's an official announcement from CCP, only time will tell
Neo Omni Gallente	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:23:00 - [17] There are so many elements to EVE that can be made a little bit more cozy with ambulation. Past games of this genre would have you visit a dealership to purchase your next ship. Or interacting with an actual character for your next mission. It was kind'a fun having the dealer show you around the hanger. Problem is that it does slow down the pace of the game as opposed to just selecting your ship and buying it direct from the market, and unless the interaction is made unique every time (different dealer, atmosphere, dialog), the repetition gets dull really fast.
Rastelle Duty.	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:23:00 - [18] personally i want gun's, strippers and a method to beat annother person's ship to death if they dont undock The Cake Maybe a lie ...... but Beer is good :)

CCP did say a long time ago that you wont have to go into the station and that you will be able to use the normal interface, so it should only slow down the pace of the game for people who want slower pace :) --------------------------
Chris Liath Gallente Nex Exercitus Skunk-Works	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:31:00 - [22] The point with eve isn't just shooting ships. We're also demigods of an interstellar society. We live a life of ridiculous luxury. "Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.
Neo Omni Gallente	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:39:00 - [23] Originally by: Chris Liath The point with eve isn't just shooting ships. We're also demigods of an interstellar society. We live a life of ridiculous luxury. The is completely contradictory to what the barbarian elements of this game keep spewing out. "EVE is kill or be killed...long live the SCAMS and CAN FLIPPERS...yada, yada, yada." So can I meet up with the guy that took my ore on station and beat him up? I hope so. "Gimme those damn implants loser...POW!!!" That's for stealing my ore and getting my sister pregnant.
Cerebus Alteri	Posted - 2009.04.28 20:40:00 - [24] well devs have said many times they do not want fighting on stations. bit problematic since your not in your pod, its the real you you so to speak if you got killed in station walking around you would be dead dead. here is to hoping there will be texas hold em, blackjack, 5 and 7 card stud, omaha hi lo, chess, maybe even slots for the "likes to pull a handle crowd." hell how about some lazer tag arenas that might be workable. or some virtual mech warrior pods or other cool scifi junk. but supposedly the station interiors are on a seperate node from the external, just creating a loading onto the station servers should be workable with the eve servers i would think in theory at lest. and hard to see ccp putting what 4 years into it only to see it go poof because the client server software cannot handle it. plus ambulation was a stepping point to walking or riding on planets eventually.

Problem can be easily cicumvented by introducing an implant (we may have had all along or as fancy new technology) that does the brain scanning upon... Skull breach, just like the pod does on pod breach. "Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.
