I've asked while in the game in the chat if there are any interior ship views for piloting and they said no, only exterior.
I feel that a key to jump the pilot to his or her specific type ship interior control view would nicely enhance the gameplay of Eve online. And depending on what type of ship that pilot owns and operates, would depend on the type of interior. The bigger the ship, the more complex the controls and the larger the interior will appear.
I'm not sure if this is possible, actually...It is. Anything in cyberworld is possible to create as the imagination is our only limitation. I would probably be flying more from that view than any. Combine that with the online voice chat and badda bing, you got a close to Virtual Reality game. Ad a joystick and you're in it even more so.
Another suggestion is...I think a twitter style chat would be great for those off-line, not able to log-in but who want to monitor chat logs with other pilots would be nice that could be linked to cell phones too, just like twitter does. But it's strictly an eve online twitter style chat for off-line connecting? Just a thought. Not sure if that will fly.
Also, I'm wanting ot reduce my game name from the Shinanjusan to just Shinja. How can do this if possbile? Thanks.

Hi, your idea sounds interesting but I'm afraid you're gonna have to find yourself another game for it. The backstory of eve would limit your "interior view" to the gooey slime in your Capsule for you see Capsuleers is what we are and they cannot command a ship without being in a capsule.
Capsules - Backstory
The downside is: You won't ever get to walk in your ship, not while you're piloting it. The upside is: you're immortal and can die as often as you see fit =)
Concerning your remark to the joystick... it has been proposed countless times and it has been denied many times over. The bandwidth and computing power necessary would be insane for current servers (imagine a 500vs 500 battle with 1000 joystick inputs, each one altering it's state within a fraction of a second).
AS for your chat suggestion. Sounds interesting and entirely doable. CCP might even already have plans for implementing such a feature into evegate.
Regards, Lax

Regardless of how large the ship is the interface by which you control it still the same... the capsule.
Read the Jovian Wetgrave to learn more about how you control your "internet spaceship."

EvE doesn't support WASD or joystick controls. And the main reason against their introduction is that the server runs at 1 HZ (it "ticks" once every second) allowing fights between dozens (or even hundreds) of people to literally be done with less than a dozen or so commands from each person.
Despite this... 'elegant' system... EvE still suffers from crippling lag when enough people pile into a system (and/or a single grid) and all begin to issue commands to their ships. So introducing controls that by their nature "micromanage" flight would only make said lag worse.

An interesting idea. Would be nice.

Unfortunately for you, once you have chosen a name you are stuck with it. The reason for this is that your actions within the world of EvE have consequences and, be it good or bad, that reputation is supposed to stick with you throughout the game.
That said... you COULD try and petition a GM to change it. If your character is young enough and/or the name is offensive in some way (hint: look up other languages) it can be changed. _______________________

As apposed to some of the previous posters, I would say internal views can be done. Not the way you describe them or by walking in your ship, as you can't get out of your pod once in space and flying the ship. But by camera control, the images you see of the exterior of you ship are through the means of a camera drone orbiting your ship, so the same could be used for internal views.
However I wouldn't put this feature high on the wanted list. It is a nice to have cosmetic feature, but I can't see any usefull things comming out of it in the future.
The other points I agree with the previous posters, joystick movement isn't needed. It would not only need a change to the control system of eve, but also a full overhaul of the camera system (with other words the whole in space view). This I find a bit to much change for the gain you would get out of it. Only a few ships are getting better with joystick (fast ships), and then not everyone got a joystick.
And at this moment you already got a type of twitter style messaging incorporated with eve-gate. Not coupled to cellphones yet, but think it is already in the planned adjustements to the api. ---------------------------------- None of yet! |
