Come Incarna, our lords and masters in far Reykjavik will bestow upon us the godlike features and divine beauty we all know we harbor, if not in our physical bodies, at least in the depths of our pristine minds.
As we stroll around in stations, displaying our new-found splendor and physical agility, we will finally put to rest the bane of carebear existence: the infamous declaration of war, that spiteful tool of New Eden's martial arts. Of course, our fearless adversaries, zipping about in their manly ships, festooned with all manner of death-delivering tools the vast EVE armory affords the enterprising capsuleer, will not be detracted from their military designs, spitefully puny or Machiavellian in nature alike. We will rest at ease, in the comforting knowledge that the declaration of war is now no more than the most perfect excuse to examine, explore and excel in the many and diverse distractions the stations will have to offer.
- Join us at the bar where we will discuss our plans for the future.
- Break out the Morphite credit card and browse the local stores for the latest in deep-space vestimentary accoutrements for the discerning capsuleer and their significant other.
- Meet in the corporate office where the post-war efforts will be discussed and grand plans for the future will be laid.
- Play the magnificent mini-games that will be offered for our relaxation and diversion. The hours of merriment they offer will make the war declaration seem like a festive occasion. Another "valid reason" to while away the time in quiet introspection as the station spins.
There is no more reason to fear the dread of exploding ships and the loss of scarce and valuable resources. For now we will just be able to use the most prized weapon in all of warfare. We will be able to wait out our warmongering friends and patiently expect Concord's curt message that the party opposite has violated the terms of the Yulai Convention, thereby nullifying the war. Our fearsome adversary will sit in their space bound pods while we, all dry and gaily bedight in splendiferous glamor cavort in the station's sanctuary, until the war declaration expires and our erstwhile adversaries leave the scene like mangy dogs that were waiting for a scrumptious morsel but, since it appears not to be forthcoming, squirrel away, pouting for yet another lost opportunity at glory, lewtz and the glamour-free banner of the hopelessly misguided trophy, aka: the kill mail, the modern equivalent of public self-gratification.
For this generous solution to an at times vexing problem, we know CCP our tanks.

Once all the serious bugs are gone from Incarna (I unfortunately estimate this to be around 2018, when it gets completely rewritten from scratch), I certainly hope I get to walk into the station and shoot WT's in the face.

After incarna I'm hoping CCP opens space hospitals so we can use the obsterics departments to give birth to little itty bitty Amarr babies destined to grow up capsuleers and catch a few glimpses of new Gallente mothers using iridium powered breast pumps. |

Grief them? How exactly?
/emote bootydance them to tears?
Walking in stations is the dumbest idea CCP has ever had. We haven't needed it for the last 7 years, still don't.

Oh no!  . You mean hi sec griefers won't be causing as much grief? You mean people will now be able to enjoy the game even while being camped in station by griefers?

It'd be great if when you left your ship to enter a station it just turned into Unreal Tournament, or Halo

I'm going to go on a limb here and take a wild guess that you've actually never before played a game where it was possible to walk around in indoor locations in MP without being able to kill people...
(also known as RolePlaying SRSBSNS)
From the top of my head here are some well-known griefing tactics:
-passageway blocking
-door blocking
-entrance/exit blocking
-non-stop bunnyhopping in front of someone's face with your big fat bald ugly brutor toon
-non-stop humping
-jumping on tables/bars
-jumping on people's heads and taking residence
-stalking
-chat(bubble) harrassment
The list goes on and on...
My latest personal experience with harrassment is the armsdealer doorblocking in Killing Floor (yay for Co-op without FriendlyFire... rite?)

You've successfully illustrated the epic lameness of Walking In Stations. IMHO of course.

Actually, the only illustration made from his post is the lameness and pathetic behavior of griefers. And it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. This is what they look for in any new content; how to grief play. But it doesn't mean the content itself is lame.

Well being able to fight with fists or weapons will require a whole new set of skills and while I'm certain that some of these weapons will be pricey, they almost certainly wont cost as much as an entire BS. At least not to be at least somewhat competitive. Seems to me that everyone will be starting off on an even playing field for a change. This could be seriously interesting. Watching a 80 million sp pirate get popped by a 3 million skill point miner who is played by someone who happens to be really good at wow or other shooters would be worth a laugh. One thing is for sure, being good at Eve won't make you automatically good at incarna. It is quite possible that the griefers are the ones who get griefed in those corridors.

I understand the humor and for the record, while I have played everything from 1/285th scale wwII games on terrian boards to star fleet battles, dungeons and dragons to playing Chess well enough to win tournaments, I've never played WoW and I'm terrible at Halo. However in my 30 years of gamming I have learned that people who are really good at one thing are very often not good at games that are significantly differant.

I could see an entirly new griefing tactic here if that is the case. 1 man corps wardecking entire large allainces just to keep all their members out of the station. Something the size of Hydra with a thousand players all kept out of the corridors by one man corp with a wardec. now that would be some tears worth collecting

Is this really how that will work? I haven't seen that discussion. It would be broken content. It is not realistic and if you could really do that it would suffice for an alliance to create a toon to war dec an alliance indefinitely. That content would then grind to a halt. You may rest assured that our lords and masters in far Reykjavik will not be positively inclined by a simple and cheap tactic to deprive thousands of players of their new content.
While I was merely trying to point out a consequence of walking in stations, I'm not against station combat per se. If I can be attacked, that means I can attack myself. If I can reciprocate I don't have a problem with it. People griefing, and they are there, should go do something else. I believe blocking doors will be prohibited, like blocking station exits is. Intentionally annoying people by jumping on tables and filling chat with nonsense... I guess it's a play style but it seems like a waste of good money to spend time like that. The thing it says, more than any other, is that the person systematically engaging in the behavior is missing some key aspects in their life. I thought they made Sadville for that.
