That is an awesome vision of the future. Just don't ***** out on it on the road to it. I'm sure there will be times where you want to cut corners and make compromises because what you're trying to achieve will be god damn hard, but don't give up on it. That vision is worth all the sweat and effort it takes to achieve it.
Truly amazing and inspiring.

OMG that was awesome. But it confirmed my belief that Dust would be better as a 3rd person shooter. I hope you give us the option.

Watched it
Started off and was like "hmm sounds like C&C music"
Ok'ish vid, but what really made my **** my pants was the dreads shooting FPS tards on planets, now I hope this isnt a false promise, because I will be really ****ed, I would literally buy 1000 GTC if this was a feature.
Noticed in station shooting etc too, which is also nice, hope this is possible too.
Anyway I missed the fanfest stream, was anything said on how DUST will affect 0.0?? .

Piece of advice: don't take this vid remotely literally. It was meant to be entertaining, but it's very well established that movies and video games both suck when they try to mimic each other.

Remember folks, this is a "vision of the future".
I went to Fanfest in 2008, it was really good and I would love to go again sometime. While there CCP showed a video of their "vision of the future" it showed the captains quarters, and the inside of the station, with the idea that you could rent shop and office space. This was 3 years ago! and we are still waiting, there were quite a few "visions" shown that weekend, and most of them found their way into game in some form or another.
Epic mission arcs was the one I remember best (being a carebear) they were introducing not only a new set of missions, but a framework that would allow mission creation to be really easy and much better than the current system, it would allow endless variation... in the end we got 4 missions out of that and nothing more.
I only cite this example to throw this awesome video into perspective.

Yep, my thoughts too. Instead of Eve: Forever it should be Eve: Never
Cool video, but just adds to the disapointment of what will never be.

Sadly this is very much the case. EVE creeps towards the future and never quite or feels as great as the promise. Such is the power of marketing. Cool video though.

I don't see it happening, especially in the short-to-medium run. Despite I'd love to be proven wrong, the video looks no more than a cliffhanger.

Maybe if you put all of the time and effort that went into making all of these video into actual game development instead of lies and deceit, you'd have something far more substantial in Eve already. ___________________________________________ The Hero of Kamela The Terror of Tararan The Executioner of Ezzara |

Yay, because it takes all of CCP's 400 employees to put together a CGX video lasting 2'38"... 
EVE Forever is a teaser of what EVE could be in say 5 years. If things go right and the decissions are taken and so many variables.
But hey, this Fanfest will be wild compared to next years' when all they will announce will be an endless row of much needed iterations (according to the schedule provided like a year ago where 2011= Incarna 0.5 and 2012= Incarna 1.0 +feature iterations at last).

The promising thing is that video was done with existing tools and in-game style assets according to the presentation, not a fancy pre-rendered animation that the game(s) will never look like.
It's good to see what the future holds I think... the "I want it NAO!" crowd can whine all they want. |

Perfect. CCP; your vision of the most awesome game ever is in alignment with mine.
The pip-squeaks around here seems incapable to understand the importance of having a vision and when to be concerned or not. Now, if CCPs vision was about spamming your friends with invites that would add to your progress or raid bosses and getting purple loot I would consider an end to this hobby. But this is good, damn good.

The only thing that bums me out is knowing that the reality of all this will be very different. I mean, it's a completely different atmosphere when you have characters that don't have voices and who don't have facial expressions. That little nuanced look the girl gave as the guy walked past? Yeah, not going to happen. You'll have plenty of emotionless people standing around chatting by text (or maybe somewhat disembodied voices, if people start opting for voice).
I know it's pretty difficult to find a way around that and it'll probably come in time (to a degree). And by time, I mean, ten or fifteen years. But it's an unavoidable "valley" that I just don't think we can currently bridge.

The video was perhaps one of the best I've ever seen, but people should bear in mind it's very likely to take years to get to the stage of what that video showed.
As has been mentioned before in this thread "walking in stations" or Incarna as we now know it has been in the pipes for about 3 years now and we're still probably 4+ months away from the very first iteration from it being released (remember we're getting the captain's quarters only, there wont be any interaction with other players yet)
So as a video yes, it was very good and did impress me, but people should not get carried away Eve being like it was in that video is many years off.

Not bad. Good to know that you guys still have a vision like that, to increase depth of the game, not just space strategy. Some other companies tried to do something like that, but fails(or all of the game aspects was very simple), becase their plans was too big, but you already have a foundry, and income.
Orbital bombardment and air strikes(from carriers?), well why not? Yes, it's a big advantage but stakes are also higher - death in FPS is almost nothing compared to capital ship destruction by an opposite space forces or planetary defence systems. ---

This is what i actually noticed first, it looked more ingame then some cinematic quality models. All i think it was is just some scripting, prolly some after effects for the planet transition (i seen a similar thing done in a gmod video) or just some custom planet/world

Cool video, but how many of the features will actually be implemented as shown remains to be seen.
One thing not shown in the video: you can't have planetary bombardment and air support without also having planetary defenses (surface-to-orbit, surface-to-air, and orbital defenses). It would be too one-sided to let the ships shoot at the planet and not let the planet shoot at the ships.

Cool video, nice to see at least one guy (whoever storyboarded this) at CCP still has some idea of how awesome stuff should be, now all that needs to happen is this guy gets in charge of future content planning rather than just making the pretty vidoes... Seriously how many people would prefer it if we got a steady stream of bugfixes and minor iterations of stuff, and then a BIG expansion every 12-18 months with say planetary interaction on the scale of orbital bombardments/fighters being sent to support ground forces and planetary defenses to potentially balance the odds landing ingame in an awesome, working chunk of win? Most of the reason expansions tend towards half-arsed buggy messes with a somewhat limited vision is the fierce developement cycles imposed on them. We could have stuff working ingame like that in a couple of years, sadly I expect it will end up like the PI stuff we have now, that could have been damn near a whole game unto itself, with detailed colony management and development, but instead is something most people spend 5 minutes a week on once setup.
Theres allways hope that a couple of things that get hinted at in these sort of videos make it into the game sometime and turn out to actualy be good, maybe one or two things from this one will. |

Edited by: Serpents smile on 27/03/2011 15:06:14 Sigh. What a bunch of whiny *****es we have here today on the forums.
What part of "vision" as in: 'we' have this idea how things should look like in or heads and if one day 'we' get part A work together with part B, C, D and E, 'we' might be able to pull this off. But it may take "someÖ" time since, as you are all fully aware, we are in uncharted territory. NO-ONE ever has put this together, so 'we' have to figure it out ourselves, without being able to "borrow" from others who have gone here before.
Really if it sux so much, why the frell are you still here? Go away! Leave, fekk off. You don't care you, don't bother, you're bored to death, bugs everywhere. Why do you even bother unless you're some sort of contorted masochist, who likes being in pain. 
Yes, you may be skeptical. We've seen more stuff that, THUS FAR, never materialized or only arrived in a very minimal borked foeked up state like (PI=lie). But it doesn't mean they (CCP) will not get there.
Will it take (lots of) time? Yes! Will they fall flat on their face on the road trying getting there? Absofragginglutely! But somehow, looking at for example the first beta screens and comparing that to what *we* have now and what is around the corner, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Somehow I think, they will actually get there.
I just hope I live long enough.

Edited by: Kateryne on 27/03/2011 17:25:58 Excellent work ccp - your devotion to the integrity of eve's story and setting as a place for us all to enjoy is as always a refreshing breath of fresh air.
However as was said, please allow an option on the new forums to flag posts on a personal level as "whine", hiding further posts from said players unless overridden, so the sensible majority of us can browse without rage.
Eve is going so well right now and has many great things on the horizon, don't let the naysayers drag you down the road of caving to pressure from a handful of alliances.
Good fanfest, if a little packed. Big shout out to all the devs, gm's, isd and white wolf staff who helped make this fanfest the fun event it was, especially ccp Shadow, and ccp Zymergist who put up with my pestering them for live agent missions. Also to everyone who helped secure winmatar overall dominance in the victory point race and ad such being the theme of next years fanfest, especially the 3 other members of the minmatar team in the finals which I had the pleasure of being part of.

Edited by: Cearain on 27/03/2011 23:11:49 That trailer is either very nice or incredibly awesome, depending on what meaning we are to take from it. If that is truly the future of *eve* that is awesome. That is, if dust may be scrapped and they will just make the first person shooter part of eve itself it will be an amazing future.
Go in a spaceship, tank, mech or just run with a gun. Its up to you. And you coodinate operations on one server?? That would indeed be mind blowing.
If what I am thinking is indeed true I say that is really awesome. Forget about the consoles just expand the eve universe.
Obligatory: But please also fix faction war.

What a great vision for EVE.
I got a PS3 and a PC, so I feel ready. In the meantime, I will produce some Recursive Computing Module and Nano-Factories.
- I am wondering if this will not affect the low-sec part of the New Eden. Will it be a need to be in low-sec?
Thx, DEFIER.

Edited by: Florio on 28/03/2011 05:38:02 Couple of points:
1) The video was okey. It didn't make me want to play DUST, the environment in particular was not inspiring. Also the female assassin was a bit characterless and plasticy. I hope CCP will introduce possible shabbiness to incarna avatars.
2) What the video represented was heart warming. Many of us have invested years in this world, and we want to love it and be inspired to play it. The full galaxy-simulation that the video showcased is just what I want and increases my trust in CCP that this is a game into which it is worth investing my precious time. Well done (again) Team CCP! (PS. If the private owners of CCP think about selling out I will campaign to nuke Iceland - having millions in the bank will not make you as content and happy as continuing to create something incredible.)

Edited by: Hannibal Vexor on 28/03/2011 11:35:38 Video was awsome.
Tbh the only part that actually was like *Fistpump shouting 'YESS'* was the vision of being able to keep up my PVP activities while out of my ship.
EvE has always been about never feeling 100% safe. You never know WHEN your going to be blown up and I believe that if, and i say if, multiplayer station interiors does become available then I want to be able to buy a ****ing gun and roam it with my gang the same as i do in space.
I know alot of carebears will hate that idea but hey, buy a bigger gun.
Lol

The scale of the fleet in orbit was really large, i am wondering what the scale would be for this to be realized. Perhaps it will be an alliance or faction warfare thing in stead of a more small group thing.
Personally i would be happy if i could leave my ship and enter drifting ships in a first person mode, to explore or find technology. Something like the ruin ring in The Reality Dysfunction by Peter F. Hamilton.
This could be done using local computing instead of the lag fest that the large scale stuff would be.

Very nice marketing/hype video, I'm sure it will fuel hope that it will come to pass soon in the newbies who don't know any better.
I especially liked the music, it had a Resident Evil feel to it.

[Long version] (see further down for the TLDR)
First I wanna say I really liked the video. I attended FanFest this year, and it was shown twice in a row, since every1 attending cheered and whistled till they showed it again.
So no question about this. Then we were asked to show this video to our friends, spread it through forums, facebook etc etc. And I was going No. I wont do that. I will _not_ show this to my friends.
Why, you might ask? Simply because EvE is nowhere near what the video is showing. And it wont be for at least a year, two years, longer time? No1 knows.
Anyhow, imagine a potential new player. He tried WoW perhaps, didn't like it. Maybe he is playing some Guildwars, I dunno. Anyway, he checks youtube and finds this video. He is blown away (of course) and signs an account, how long does it take for him to be disappointed do you think?
If the same potential player looks around, finds EvE through some other means and tries it out without seeing all these promises, maybe he at least sticks around, getting killed, getting scammed, learns the game and actually enjoys it, like I'm sure most of us did back through the years.
Thats the danger of giving to high promises. Do you think that in the first scenario, where he quits EvE in frustration that once he was promised isn't coming soon, the player will try EvE again? Or will he remember CCP for the promises made and that they couldnt deliver?
I'm not saying I know how people are. I know how I am, and for my own part, seeing that video would have made me drop the game after trying it. CCP would not have gotten these years out of me, which would have been a shame because it has been really nice and more are coming.
I liked the video, I love this game, I know CCP takes its pride in making things take their time, to make them better. But I have been here for 5 years now. Dont expect the same out of a month-old new player.
[TLDR] : Video is really really nice, but false promises are bad if you want new players staying more than a month or two and then leave because they become disappointed.

Originally by: CCP Zymurgist At each EVE Fanfest we like to fill you full of bull since you traveled so far and are so gullible. This year we expand the FMV lies even further with more stuff you aint ever going to be able to do. Make sure every noob you know thinks thats what is really coming.
Missed it on the live stream? Want to see it again? Head to our YouTube page.
Fixed that for you
Having watched many CCP FMV fairy tale vids over the years i got a couple of questions.
1. Will there be in station combat? i.e when a target wont undock i can goto the station salon/barbers/turkish bath and shoot the back of his skull in just like in the video your showing? You sure you wont introduce this feature then backpedal once all the carebears/CCP staff start whining to much because theres nobody to hold their hand?
2. Will we be able to use dreads to nuke people on planets? so your going to allow dreads in high sec or is that 0.0/low sec feature only?
Sorry to be so negative but i was one of the people who watched the video many years ago of a crow interceptor flying into the atmosphere of a planet and was lead to believe that was future gameplay. Instead we get dusty bin 445 which cant be played on a pc.
I also watched with interest the mining revamp/upgrade video, you know the one where theres 2 geeks talking for 30 minutes about how there going to bring the "gold rush" feeling back to mining. Instead the game becomes full of mining bots.
I could go on.
Seems more and more that CCP are not giving its customers what they really want which is more ships, more t3 ships, the introduction of t3 mods and ammo, formation flying (oops i forgot that ones coming ), overview revamp to compansate for larger monitors. Instead we get PI, character face change with 10 choices, walk in stations but not your ship, captains quarters in stations but not in ships.
Next fanfest change your name to yohan, grab yourself a guitar and sing a jackonory on stage-same effect. Haleuth |

Thanks for this video.
But i have some questions. Us as Eve Users, we are important to the dust players, but otherwise ? I start my thoughts, how Dust can work with Eve together. I got some possible Options for that.
- Dust Players opens a new Market to EVE. EVE Players can hire DUST Players for money, no discussion. DUST Players technically start as Space Marine, try to be the Mercs for Hire. OK he finished some "Jobs" (maybe in highsec) (stealing some materials from a Storage on Planet) - he earns money (not that much (maybe 1 Million max)) - but anyhow, he grinds and he later can create a "Mercs Corp", like in EVE they are growing (or not). After that they are buying a War Barge (Who is flying this barge ?). They upgrade to tanks and so on. Its becomse more tactical. Ok this is the DUST Side.
BUT !
Do a EVE Player is really intersted if 2 or 3 Mercs are stealing 100k Noble Metals ? Do the player care about that ? Well this loss - he earns with a single Belt Rat ! I dont think that work so.
BUT !
There are many solution to get EVE Players more Interact with DUST Players (only thoughts !)
- new material - produced by DUST Players (maybe DUST Players go working in a Coal Mine ;) ?) - Borders (wich means, Planetary Interaction can only be builded at space , claimed by DUST Players ?)
Then next point...
do the DUST Players have to pay a monthly fee ? (CCP - if you try this, this can hardly go wrong for ya !) If you think about a monthly fee, give the DUST Players a chance to play for free, using ISK. (Wich should be a nice option).
I am sure, u want to keep your thinkings secret. But CCP, don't you think, we should work "together" on that behavior ?

Edited by: Shepard Book on 30/03/2011 15:53:03 I am happy with the overall vision as vague as it is. Looks like your listening to things we may want.
1)Being able to use dreads for planetary bombardment perhaps? Yes dreads are a joke now.
2)In station combat
There are a few concerns though.
BLACKOPS!?!
1)Nerfing 0.0 anoms
2)buffing highsec by removing quality from agents. I realize a big percentage is care bears but dang.
3)focus on new features for highsec instead of lowsec ( contraband )Do you seriously want low sec to ever grow? I realize incursions maybe have helped a little but that is still universe wide. LOW sec is still there but barren...
4) Is faction warfare the way you want it?
5) taking away insurance from suicide ganking. Do you really want no PvP in highsec except for F.W and wardecs that can be avoided by NPC corps?
What happened to the corruption idea for lowsec?
I like the idea of working on the smaller things but please pay more attention to what we as players voted for through CSM last year and prioritized for you.

To all the naysayers... it was amazing and if this is a future vision, CCP has (and always has had) my loyalty.
No one said it'd happen next week.
Hence 'Future' - Hilmar made no mention of timescales. Given the rate technology moves, it could get even better and arrive even sooner. You (and I) will just have to wait and see.
Given that some people were whining about removal of shader model 2.0 (an antique in PC terms) recently I suggest you take a chill pill and see what happens in coming weeks/months.
There are many other MMO's out there that do not have such close interaction with their respective communities. I suggest if you don't like what CCP do, then quit. Then come back in 1 maybe 2 years time when you have seen what they have done. I am not a Fanboi by any means but having spoken firsthand to many Devs in the last few days, I suggest you give them a break.

I think the trailers are a vision of what CCP want EvE to be. I'm not looking at the mechanics and the features. I'm looking at the short story. Like a few others I saw, the theme is the same. The Individual matters, there are consequences, honor is important in EvE. That's not really the case. Corp thieves and scammers flourish in EvE. Deception is rewarded and honor is a weakness. The only way to beat people like this is to do what they do only better. CCP don't seem to want that though. They just havent figured out how to change it and not unbalance the game and break it. Concord LP is a start to that I think. While Concord LP doesn't deal with scammers and corp thieves, they do seem to be looking for something. |

It's something really awesome and certainly the one that would make me keep my accounts active because ATM it's horribly boring trying to play the game with lag stuff, broken/not working stuff, waiting hundreds days of skills to do what you want in the game expecting that stuff will not be more broken than it is right now or just doing this exciting activity like ice mining -just like many others-.
Any way, very nice vid, love it. ________________________________________________

What a lol-fest that video is! Apart from the 'shiny-shiny' of walking in stations (bothered) there is no change on the horizon. All this video says to me is 'if you kinda like Eve, why don't you stick around for a few more years and see what we do with it? Here are some guesses we're making!' and apart from that frankly, it's just an ad for Dust 514. Dust 514 is coming, but it's nothing more than a console FPS, and one which won't be BF 3 or Brink and nothing accomplished on that game will reflect in the Eve Universe. Yeah, I know the concept is that you're "hiring mercs to take a base/planet for you", but that's blatantly nonsens. As if some guy is sat in front of his PS3/X-Box waiting for your contract, lol. It'll be 50/50 which side wins, as all these things are and if that's the case, who in their right mind is going to invest anything in the outcome? I suppose with PI being so much fun... As far as I'm aware it's an FPS in the Eve Universe, but all it does is share fluff. The engine for running the 'Walking In Stations' stuff is basically a testbed for CCPs forthcoming 'Vampire: World of Darkness' and I can't see that aspect affecting the running of the game. what means 'isk per hour' anyway...? |

The original EvE trailers only featured in game content. It was one of the many things that made the game especially innovative and differentiated it from others.
Sadly somewhere along the line CCP decided this wasn't enough and started adding oog content. With successive trailers this content has moved further and further away from the way the game actual plays until now they're really just eye candy. I no longer look forward to them and am rarely impressed anymore.
The fact the originals were made purely from actual gameplay not only sold the product but also forced the trailer makers to be artistic and creative within the confines of the actual game. The game effectively sold itself.
Check out Eve Never Fades from 2006 as a good example.

I think you are reading too much into it then, I doubt CCP envisioned EVE as a good versus evil, or honorable versus dishonorable, kind of game. It is more likeable that they imagined EVE to be more Elite-esque where players could be traders, pirates, bounty hunters or explorers. The morality, or the lack of it, is what the players have brought into it and it is what separates EVE from the rest in the MMO genre.
And CCP deserve a medal for not meddling with it.

Originally by: Sisohiv It's a nice trailer and I am looking forward to the FRAPS sessions but gameplay wise, no trailer ever made for this game had a hint of reality in it.
Nor was the trailers never meant to. They were meant to sell the vision and the concept.
A movie trailer is about hooking your interest. Same with video game trailers. Nothing else.
The original EvE trailers only featured in game content. It was one of the many things that made the game especially innovative and differentiated it from others.
Sadly somewhere along the line CCP decided this wasn't enough and started adding oog content. With successive trailers this content has moved further and further away from the way the game actual plays until now they're really just eye candy. I no longer look forward to them and am rarely impressed anymore.
The fact the originals were made purely from actual gameplay not only sold the product but also forced the trailer makers to be artistic and creative within the confines of the actual game. The game effectively sold itself.
Check out Eve Never Fades from 2006 as a good example.
I am not disagreeing with you, but I am not agreeing with you either because the older trailers didn't really show anything innovative and different either when you can categorize them into trailers about stuff added to the game, story telling & lore and technology. But I agree with you that the newer trailers are more about reeling you in than show off EVE in its glory.
EVE Never Fades is a special case, personally I find it more to be along the lines of being a piece of art using EVE as its locomotion.

I have used my 4 hour plex allowance to come post this on here because I felt so strongly about it. I have not played in 6 months. I played for years. And I have to say this trailer is lovely. But here are a few things I would rather see:
1.Removal of Pos Shields you can run into every time some one with a big stick comes by. 2.Removal of off-line pos after 30day or some mechanic to address offline pos. 3. afk empire living in npc stations. 4. Travel (jump bridges over used. warp bubbles over powered preventing normal travel.)
And I will point out to every one. This Trailer's Vision shares something profound with CCP's April fools joke about mounts. Both are as plausible and frankly at this point the outsider would say that mounts are more Fin likely than in station pvp. Planetary bombardment from EVE onto Dust players and or Either of these ideas happening before 2015.
I use to love this game. But frankly issues get ignored for years and the Eve veteran community gets more and more bitter as time goes on. I Find less and less ex-players who have positive things to say. And that's sad. And you may think who cares. Well that is the point. All the people who have quit have no voice. So for every supporter active you could have 10 people who have left. And this is the problem with every mmo. When they start to die they make changes their active players put forward. Not Goto the people who have left and ask how they can get them back.

just wanted to add how excited I am for this. Everyone that see it is like "omg hat game is that?" and when they find out it's eve they get really impressed that a 7 year old mmo would set such high goals.

Nice trailer but a terrible shame it will never be a single integrated game and will be spread across two platforms, and Dust will probably die after the next new shiny console FPS comes out.

Originally by: Fat Freddy Remember folks, this is a "vision of the future".
I went to Fanfest in 2008, it was really good and I would love to go again sometime. While there CCP showed a video of their "vision of the future" it showed the captains quarters, and the inside of the station, with the idea that you could rent shop and office space. This was 3 years ago! and we are still waiting, there were quite a few "visions" shown that weekend, and most of them found their way into game in some form or another.
Epic mission arcs was the one I remember best (being a carebear) they were introducing not only a new set of missions, but a framework that would allow mission creation to be really easy and much better than the current system, it would allow endless variation... in the end we got 4 missions out of that and nothing more.
I only cite this example to throw this awesome video into perspective.
TL;DR
Take with a pinch of salt
Fred
Hopefully this current vision will be accurate and timely.

What sec level does one imagine that video representing?
Are there any qualitative differences in the visions of where highsec/lowsec/nullsec are going, or like rats, is the concept to have all sectors of space be awash with mercs, just at different scales of numbers and armaments?

Eye candy at best.
I don't believe they'll ever let you planet bombard and thus grief their console players...

Originally by: CCP Zymurgist At each EVE Fanfest we share our future visions for EVE. This year we expand it a bit further into where we are headed with the EVE Universe--with a forward-looking video.
Missed it on the live stream? Want to see it again? Head to our YouTube page.
The video was cool and all but i hate when developers release CGI trailers that do not represent their game.
The trailer suggests:
1. Dust will be a 3rd person shooter 2. There will be voice communication between eve and dust player 3. There will be combat in stations 4. Eve players will be able to double cross dust players
If all the above were true the game would be amazing but from what IĈm hearing, we will be lucky to get combat in stations.

Originally by: enterprisePSI I for one, pray the new forums have a block feature, so i can block whiners. 
+1
+2
+3 - or a dislike button, that automatically minimizes their replies.
So, I'm confused. Do you guys want the anti-whine feature immediately in the old forums, as in the ones we are all having to post in now? Because, CCP obviously can't handle a project that any junior high kid with half a brain can and get a new set of forums working, even after MULTIPLE live tests? Or, are you wanting the button in the NEW Forums that the programming challenged devs are bringing to us SOON(tm)? Just wanting a little clarification on that......
And yes, even after you made the "whiner's" point for them, I bet you guys still can't accept the fact that CCP suck and never deliver on the scope of their promises, huh?

Planetary bombardment could very easily be made to happen, and fit in well with the way FPS games already play online.
How many times have you played a character that calls an airstrike? This was one of the useful weapons for any team in, for example, Frontlines where a specialist would call in an airstrike, which was limited in number and frequency of use.
If airstrike calls from the ground give pilot in space targeting information (without which the pilot cant shoot), then not only do the groundforces WANT it to happen, but if there HAS to be a real ship up in space to perform the strike then the Dusties will WANT eve players to be involved to perform that service for them. Defending the space above a planet "achieving space superiority" could become a key ingredient in the success of Dust integration imo, and make the Eve side more involved in the battle too. You wanna hurt alliance A? Go pew their ships and planets, hirting mercs for the gruntwork.
Will be intersting to see if this model could have a positive effect on soverignty perhaps? |

Got a question! at the beginning of the video the main character is looking out of a window at a station, is he inside a ship? If so does that mean we will be able to walk about or at least see inside our ships?

No, he's in a station.
