Edited by: Queen Gaea on 27/05/2011 19:04:32 So, as the title says: Replace the Character Selection screen by the "Sofa view" of the Captain Quarters.
There are max 3 characters on every account, and the sofa has three seats. Have the characters sit on the sofa on login, select one of them, and make an animation of them "jumping" to their real location, replacing the old "logging in" pop-up and progress bar...
This would give a nice, easy update of the Character Selection screen (which is stone-age) and should be pretty easy to do.

This is a very good idea. Should be implemented with Incarna!

Edited by: Forum Alting on 27/05/2011 19:53:21 Nit-picker 3000 must be malfunctioning because I cannot see anything wrong with this idea and actually think it will be pretty nice.
I have but one request which is the ability to change how the character sits such as making them slouch or sit up straight. Would make it a bit more human than 3 people sitting on a sofa with the exact same posture.

Assuming they intend to keep CQ the "lobby" for all your private game interactionsà
àsure. Neat idea.
Granted, I'd imagine that there's some arcane reason why you have to log out and back in again to change characters, and that this reason would severely hamper the idea, but still. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

How does that work if you live in wormhole space or a mom? Does that mean we can never disappear from space?

I don't see why not. Would even be more awesome once captain's quarters are more customizable. |

Its also not going to work if you logged off in a normal ship in normal space, but that doesn't mean the couch itself is bad. I think the fade to black is pretty much inevitable, but I like the idea of the couch as a selection mechanism, provided everyone is looking suitably relaxed and, you know, lounging about, it would be a pretty awesome char selector.

Yeah, like a sofa in the captain's lounge. Pilots wait to be called to duty... until then, they relax, drink refreshing beverages, chat with friends, etc.

Yes, it used to be possible but was removed as it tended to cause corruption of the client session. Macrointel, the place were the nature order of the universe does not hold sway. Pirates and ore thief's are congratulated by carebears for the actions. |

Instead of the character pictures that you see when you log in, you would start in the captains quarters with you looking at your three characters sitting together on the sofa and then select your character.

It shouldnt be Captains quarters ... could create logical problems like .. -Wait wasnt each of these characters on different places ? -WHAAA ... since when i am in my captains Quarters ?!?
Maybe medical facilities with clone interface things on the background. And the sofa idea can still work :P
I like it.

Hmmm right, people might think those things... then maybe they are holographic projections of your characters? Medical facilities are not always available in stations, that might confuse too... Holograms ftw :)
Thank you all for the positive feedback until now :)

was about to say it's ridiculous, but after thinking 10seconds i heard a little voice on my head saying "hey i like that !"
just consider it's not the CQ but some room we'll have later on another incarna patch
