I believe the exploring aspect of EvE could be dramatically improved. I many games much fun and time is spent exploring the world and few games have a world as expansive as EvE. The problem is ever system looks so similar. Would be nice if their where more things to explore. Items like the eve gate, the Concord Bureau, battle sites.
Would love to see more of these things in the game. In addition to simply existing it would be great to see a short write up on what did happen. Give us a beacon with a really nice text story to go with the event. Maybe even some voice over? Then let us loot a brochure or something for fun.
This would bring more lore into the game and make exploring actually fun. Having interesting things to explore would make people actually want to fly out and find and see these things.
Thoughts? Comments?
Just really want a more involved world.
All for a fairly low development cost.

That will fit CCP Abraxas' new initiative... of making you drown into the wiki of Eve lore. (http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=825) Those little story bits may be used as the starting point / entrance for the evil grasp of lore wiki.

In the start there were "Points of Interest" which were out in random space where people would have to use manual multilaterisation and lots of cap drain warps to find them. Very tricky gameplay with unique reward.
Seems most of these sites have warp-to beacons on them now...... Lame.

I like it but I think it could use a bit more.
Each year, have a memorial beacon setup in systems that have had the largest fights in them. Not just "2000 ships flew in and out" but things like x number of ships lost... Region finally take over... that kind of stuff.
A kind of 'this game *IS* player driven" style memorial but only put up like once a year type thing. Let some of the 'lore' follow the players vs the players just following the lore.

That would be great!
Could be tied into the news system as the "news" page often contains write ups of big in game events.
Some further idea's are in making these worth going to. Maybe a big battle site should generate wrecks slowly over time(lore wise they just where not found or where to dangerous to retrieve) Nothing good would be in the loot and it would in no way be for income but would be great for newbies or to have little lore pieces of stuff in the wreck. such as personal artifacts or other items.
Would love to warp into a system and see a few beacons telling the history of a system.
"oh wow this place has seen a lot of big fights!!"
Or wow this is where Jita mcheck started her rise to power..or what ever else.
Also some sites without becone would be nice...and abandoned blood raiders base with a strange plee for help being broadcast on short range radio...
or a lost industrial ship you can choose to blow up or point in the right direction.
Maybe some none warp cabable ships..oh noes my warp drive is dead can we come aboard type deals(or blow em up).
Would just make the world feel so much more alive, full and vibrant.

More PVE content? Perhaps an update to COSMOS stuff?
Definitely add this to the list of things that CCP should do but won't.

As long as it's not the text you mentioned, I would like to see it. Rather, I would like to have a voice-over by the voice that does "Warp drive active" and such. Interacting with the ship AI ftw. |

Anyone remember Freelancer? Most systems and areas had a very distinct feel to them.

I support!
We have terrible monotony in space exploring.
P.S.
By the way, it is possible to return to idea with ships logs.
I have found these logs and they roll till now at me in a hangar, but and hasn't had time to try to use them somehow. Then I long didn't play, and when have returned, this idea have already refused.

QAFT. When I was noobish and first became able to fly a covops, I made a point to travel to low/null to view some of these very things. The EVE Gate was encouraging, but the rest of the "Points of Interest" on the map simply were not there. After trying 3 of them, I just gave up.

CCP just added a ton of sites to the game, about one per system (on average). The reason there aren't more is due to the amount of time it takes to code a site (laying out objects, spawn points, etc).
I do agree that some things should be included, but no major revamp should be taken care of. There's enough for CCP to worry about already, and a massive backlog of issues to take care of.
While I do support it somewhat, I'm gonna have to defer to fixing the problems of eve rather than adding in eye candy. Not supported.

Suported.
It's not a lore that affects EVE directly, it's lore that affects the DEPTH of EVE beyond the mere depth of playstyle possibilities. Some RP would do good to all players except bots, of course.
More difficult is to make these events (anomalies, artifacts, whatever?) unfarmable / unbottable while still giving more casual players an incentive to look for and do them.
Maybe add a chance for each agent to give such a lore mission (in the form of hints - meaning no rewards for completion but rewards for finding this special place and it's content(s)) over their regular mission agenda? Maybe also have the agent hand out a passcode or gate activation key or so.
Or just make storyline missions fill that role by making them fore challenging than your normal courier or easy kill mission. Add hackable stuff to them! Add some items that give a random bonus mission! So many options...

Sweet thanks.
Like the voice idea but won't hold my breath
Also like the bit about adding in lore that was player driven such as big fights...
Eve has so much history I could read it all day and finding these would be amazing.
