We all know about the new planet models on Singularity, but i want to propose something more in this direction which will bring even more immersion in the game.
All stations in New Eden are 5-10 thousands kms from the planets and because of that they often look not like orbital bodies but like standalone objects that just hang in space.
Using photoshop and some screenshots that i took on SiSi, i made some pics to show what will be if the stations are at 500-1000km from the planet which will look not only way better, but will be more authentic too (the International Space Station is in orbit at 350km above the Earth's surface).
This is my first ever photoshop stunt in my life so please be nice.

All the pics are actual screenshots from SiSi, i've just added the stations.

Makes the station seem small, maybe a mix between the 2? Not that close but not as far away as they are today. --------------------

I really like that idea. It's always bugged me how the stations seem to be so, so far away from planets and moons. This would give a far more authentic feel to things. Imagine repositioning EVERY station in EVE so it would be closer to the planets... quite a bit of work involved I think lol.

Nice pics.
I like the idea. Would look better. Maybe even show those giant elevators used to bring stuff from/to the surface.
btw the Features and Idea forum would be more suited for your proposal.

It doesn't make the station look small. When you get that in game the planets will look huge. The way they are supposed to be.

Nice. This is needed as from where things currently are, you don't really get a sense of scale of everything.
Oh, and while CCP are at it make moons bigger - it's ridiculous to have some stations nearly bigger than the moons and you can zoom the camera drone right out and go behind the moon. -------------------------- Sigless |

I will post it there too but i think this is a better place for this post to reach some dev, and right now when they work on the planets is the right time for it.

i agree, i proposed that yesterday, warping to 0m on a planet should bring oyu into a lower orbit. lowering the orbit of the stations would be great!

Only a handful of the planet types have been made beautiful so far in this current build such as the core worlds (aka prime planets) (and those will get more prettier as better shaders are put in). The eventual plan is to bring the warp in points closer to the planets and we are also looking at moving the stations closer as well so you could have epic fights with the planets dominating the scene.

how will you be dealing with the lag for the fleet warping to the planet and the hostile fleet waiting for the. on another note i am looking forward to it 01101111 01100110 01100110 01100010 01100101 01100001 01110100 00100000 01100011 01110010 01100101 01100001 01110100 01101001 01101111 01101110 |

It may be nice to have some variance, so that not all stations are close to planets.
Deep space stations might be nice too.

Quoting a very popular quote.
epic fights are epic, perhaps even move star gates and asteroid fields closer to planets as well. And yeah, moons are really small.

Will Dominion also include fixes to the borked astronomical data for the planets? For example, size / surface temp / surface gravity / etc. don't have any relation to anything resembling reality... -- EVE Blog EVE Twitter |

I want ALL the planets to have decent models if possible, and great photoshop work Sajeera!
Stations closer to the planets would make itseem more realisticly in Orbit. ------------------------------------------------

Please tell if all planets are gonna get an update sometime in the following weeks.

\o/ yayyyy! I just pictured the fleet battle from the Emyprean Age movie, but instead a blob dueling it out. Awesome news there CCP :D
A question though, will all the planets have these updated textures for the final release of Dominion? What about the backgrounds, are seeing newer versions of them too?
