Now that word is about about Incarna and Captains quarters does this mean ONLY captains quarters will be accessible or stations too?

Captains quarters
First there will be only the Captain Quarters, which them (CCP) will use to test the gazillion technologies required to turn Spreadsheets in Space into a 3rd person experience without killing it in the process.
The new Character Creator was a test to Carbon technology. The Captain Quarters will be a test to Incarna features.

Well for the first 8 years you were confined to pod, now you will be confined to pod and captains quarters.

Well I for one prefers to be confined to my Captain's Quarters for a while. No matter if it's a few months or 8 more years. Instead of being confined to a multiplayer environment that bugs out on at least 1/3 of the available features and crashes at the drop of a hat.
There _will_ be bugs, most likely serious and show stopping bugs, during the first iterations of this totally new environment.
Launching it a bit at the time, fixing bugs as they go is, IM(not very)HO, a very good way of introducing new content.

I vote for this. EVE never will have 15 million subscripers. But some lame ass dress up MMORPG with that carbon technology easily could achieve 15 million stupid teens to subscripe with their dads credit card. Carbon is good for CCP, bad for EVE players.
Basically, if they hit the jackpot, they might as well turn off TQ straight away since this is pretty small as MMORGP anyway.

Hype: Walking in stations
Reality: Slouching on couches 
Nah I know it's a first step. Looks really good. I like the station redesign too. I hope they redo the backgrounds in space when they do Incarna too. It'd be a shame to be introduced to those beautiful Incarna graphics then undock to relatively dated space background graphics.

They're releasing Incarna in stages like they did with Incursion. I imagine the first stage will be the Captain's Quarters. Second will probably be Stations. Third will probably be adding more content to both the Stations and Quarters as well as the Character Creation, plus Bug Fixing and optimizations.
Though, I don't know how much quicker they're going to push out these stages, if I am correct. I'd imagine over 4 to 5 months. Even so, I'd bet Stations will have a lot missing from them until the next two or three "expansions". Though in the latest EON is was confirmed we will have games to play in Station by this Summer, so here's hoping that is still true. Though I don't see why it wouldn't be, the in-station games looked pretty much done and working a couple years ago.
I'm ridiculously excited for this, it's the whole reason I started playing EvE in '08. I remember thinking back then "Oh, only a few months and we'll be walking in stations! :D", sadly that never happened. But I waited and it appears the waiting will be paying off.

Actually, the second better be Captain's Walk-In Wardrobe and Shoes Rack because the current selection of outfits sucks.
And, the Quarters better have different light sources because, well, the character generator light sources suck.

Oops, I somehow managed to report the post above me. My bad.
I meant to quote/reply.
Anyways, that's what I meant with the third bit, they'll probably add more clothing and stuff then if they don't add more right when they add Captain's Quarters.

Captain's Quarters doesn't make sense to me. What is the point of a non-shared environment in an MMO?

You could say the same thing about sitting in station, which is basically what the Quarters 'replace', apparently. -

They're sort of in a unique position for this. Since EVE already takes place at "the final frontier" all you can do is get more specific and add things at a smaller scale... like POSes and PI and eventually Captain's Quarters. I hope it'll be optional, at least until it's polished. ------------------------------- The fox chases for her meal, but the rabbit runs for her life. |

At least in your Captain's quarters you can rub one out and not have to fish it out of the pod-goo afterwards. Nice big screen too. |

consider the expansion isn't out for another 4-5 months yet the testing version will be up in about 2 weeks.
Plus station spinning is already a single player ordeal, if they changed that I know I would personally be ****ed. I don't want to go out into public when I fitting my ship!
so basicly if they have to cross walking with space, I think this testing the waters is the best way they could do it.
also the whole walking with friends thing will most likely be up 4-5 months before it's released in dec on sisi.

I am a player who joined the game after hearing about WiS and seeing huge potential in it. And i think i was already patient waiting for it for so many years and now i hear i need to wait like a year to socialize in stations and all i will get this summer is something more than hangar we have today. That is why all i got from todays news is the idea to take a breake till the game have futures which are promised.

It seems, as some people have guessed from character creator performance, that they're not anywhere near being able to display all the people docked in Jita 4-4 in realtime carbon glory, both in terms of server side resources and rendering speed on even the greatest of gaming rigs.
Considering Captain's Quarters took about 4-5 years to develop i'm guessing they're probably waiting for real life technology to catch up with EvE's before they deploy the full Walking in Station experience.

Apart from designing the WiS part of the game to run on GPUs that don't exist yet, at least the upcoming Captains Quarters means many of us can populate that last character slot instead of having to leave it free for... Uh... fine tuning the body sculpting of this gorgeous space tramp. For artistic purposes only of course.
Sure fire way to ensure that all bugs are reported would be to allow disrobing in CQ.

Will your character delete itself when killed running around in your CQ, as your new clone isn't activated since you weren't in your pod, ready for some soul copying at the moment of death?
