If there are plans to allow people to upgrade their room in a station, like say Dodixie. So that they can get away from the Janitor's closet next to the hanger. I hope it happens soon, not soonÖ.

I can only think of aesthetic reasons or roleplay reasons for this CQ thing to even exist ( other than it's a chance to use their WoD dev dollars to add something to eve, whilst using eve as a testbed for WoD )...
So... if you're going to do this, why not, when you walk out on the balcony, instead of having some ridiculously huge private hanger, why not open up to a vast hanger with lots of ships... like every actual ship that's in the station ( assembled ships ) they'd be tiny, of course, from a high-up aerial view -- you could let people zoom in on their ship and perhaps others ( think moving keeno view from Stargate Universe perhaps )but that'd give a better scale as to how vast these stations are and how small we are by comparison.

No airlock = either we die or the spaceship die.
CCP must explain this bullhsit.
Since when was there not an airlock? Besides, there's an incandescent field across station exits/entrances. And on carriers, supercarriers and titans showing where the fighters/drones launch from.
Ships can't be in an atmosphere because the tritanium will decay. Shields can't protect them from atmosphere and atmospheric pressure.
please reread your own link it states at atmospheric temperatures not pressure so you just need lots of warm clothing

I dont know how secure these new hangars are. My last walk around my ship I noticed someone keyed it leaving a nasty scratch. What next, sugar in my fuel intake?
(yes, I'm bored)

Originally by: Keylah Given the level of technology in eve, it's safe to assume that there are multiple force fields to contain the atmosphere inside a station.
Must be a great feeling standing on the balcony when a freighter enters the the hangar displacing 16,250,000m3 of air :)

I think people are over thinking this...Im sure there are forcefields to keep oxygen in your motel room - if they had them in Star Trek The next Generation, I'm sure they have some type of technology 20,000+ years in the future.

Obligatory: While we're discussing this realism stuff, why can we hear our guns fire in space?

i read something about realism vs plausability in sci-fi, recently :) quite interesting, don't know where, though.

I think they hired some engineer to build some huge vacuum cleaner then use it at station to Stop the air and make atmosphere stable.. it's factible lorewise ya know

artificial atmosphere doesn't not equal planet atmosphere
Stop acting dumb for the audience. If you honestly think the lore says that the station atmosphere would crumble the ships, then the atmosphere inside of the ship would kill them form the inside while in space.
The atmosphere used in station is the same as that used inside the spaceships to keep people alive.
come on people, brains, we have them.

Vampires dont need to breath air so the lack of a barrier to the hanger is not an issue imho. In order to get the most content from WoD development I think we need to start thinking of ourselves as futuristic space vampires instead of demigods.

Originally by: Soden Rah if the rooms on the ship are bigger and more luxurious than the rooms in the station... why leave the ship?
Because while you're in your ship you're in a pod. No if's, no but's. Going back to the car/motel analogy; if you're car was bigger than the room would you sleep uncomfortably in said car or stretch your legs and sleep on something softer (although probably not cleaner)?
Originally by: Soden Rah The space stations in eve are massive... and due to some "we can't actually build station models to accommodate all the potential thousands of ships that might dock in it so we are inventing tardis like tech to handwaivium it away" flim flamery they are even huger on the inside... So there is no shortage of space or building capability/money to restrict room size, so why are the quarters so small and underwhelming?
Infinite station space is a game mechanic not a lore issue. In universe stations are probably cramped, disgusting places to live; check out some of the chronicles like Jita 4-4.
I'm not sure how many times I'm going to have to repeat myself, Captain's Quarters are the equivilant of a roadside motel. There obviously grander rooms available but not to us just yet (I hope). Captain's Quarters function as a quick pit stop in station, not as a more long term or permanent residence. If you have issue with that, tough.
Yes I know that the pod pilot is in a pod. But the ships have crews, again no if's no but's its just as much lore as the pod itself. So thus the ship has rooms in it. and almost certainly a way for the pod pilot to get out of the pod inside the ship... My apoc is over a kilometre long for heaven sake, its got plenty of room for CQ in there. Going with the car analogy, its like asking if I would rather sleep in my luxury motor home or a crappy little motel room.
The hangers are MILES across. with internal surface areas probably in the TENS of square miles. There is room for several million people to live in luxury on the internal surface of one hanger alone. For every ship for every person in a station there is another hanger just like it. Thus on the internal surface area of our ship hangers you could house potentially billions of people.
I don't know how many times your GOING to repeat yourself, but as I stated, I KNOW CCP are going for the roadside motel feel, And I can think of a number of reasons why they are/might want to do this. I am simply pointing out that from a role-play perspective it doesn't make any logical sense.
They are planning to add in customisable rooms in later expansions (that you probably have to rent and thus only get in the stations you pay for). [This is one reason why CCP might be making the CQ's we're getting small and crappy so the bigger ones they make later that we have to pay for look attractive enough.] And from a lore/logic perspective, for 'quick' pit stops pod pilots don't bother getting out the pod... why would they when it takes so much time and everything happens slower once your out of it. __________________________________________________
