tempting as it may be lets try to stick to the facts, if you have it off, you have it off. No need for long speeches.
the point is what do you actually do while in the CQ, how do you interact with it? do you interact with it? what features do you use? ---------------------------------------------
For me, I load in and usually walk out to the balcony so I can tell what ship I'm in, plus I like the view better.
and thats about it, I move my toon to the place I like and use the side menu like I always have.
I have a ton of opinions about CQ too, but this again is just about how we are making use of CQ, so lets keep on track.

Srs reply Every time I make sure I'm on the balcony, theres more light and higher brightness. And I can see my ship, In case I need to check I'm in the right boat before I undock.
It anoys me when I find myself inside the quarters, standing behind the couch.

I watch my character look bemused and scratching his head. He's probably thinking the same as I am, how something that should add to immersion, has been bungled so badly, It completely breaks immersion.

I continually try and double click on the door and drag ships onto the door, one day I will get used to it not working.
When I'm on my laptop I typically spend my time checking the temperature of the laptop and finding things to prop it up on.

Unlike some stubborn people, I have embraced Incarna and I've actually managed to replace old habits, with new ones.
When I'm in the mood for some missions, I bring up the new agent finder and sift through the pages until I find what I want. (sometimes while seated)
I utilize the "TV" for planetary interaction, corporation management and sometimes click the random ads.
Other times I'll wander around wishing I could sit/lay down on the bed, wondering wtf these little caskets are or I'll walk up the ramp and take a look at my ship (although, for those that keep mentioning this, you can see which ship you have active by simply looking at the hologram on your coffee table *GASP*).
When I'm on my miner alt, I'll dock up (after mining a fair amount of minerals) and I'll double click the holo-ship on the ramp in order to drop the contents of my cargo into the station hold.
And sometimes I'll click on the door in hopes of it actually opening.
Oh my Jita alt, I usually sit her down, cover up local with my wallet window and place the market browser on the other half of the screen.
This is how I interact with CQ on a daily basis. It really isn't that bad. And if you're reading this, you've fallen into a signature trap. You owe me 1m ISK. |

When I dock, the first thing that I do is make my way into my quarters and park my ass on the sofa. I watch the TV a little and get useful info on bounties, incursions, sov losses and new players joining the game. If I am in the mood for a mission of some sort I can use the Agent Finder to find an agent of my level nearby and one of the right type of agent.
As to some of the complaints. Loading times are fine. I can load CQ on my modest setup in around but usually under 10seconds. If you are having trouble loading it quickly, get some new hardware and join everyone else who have computers less then 4 years old.
Temperature of my Graphics Card? Yeah, I used to have my card running at about 105c, but that is easily solved by getting a After Market Cooler. I did that and now Im running at around 74 degrees. Im sorry, but CCP cant hold the game back because a few people have poor computers. Thats just well...its a stupid notion.

Edited by: Ciar Meara on 05/07/2011 07:55:23 I switched mine off, but yesterday I decided to test just how much it would raise the temperature of my card so I switched in on on high settings.
I do not have the problems some have with their avatar or rendering issues (ATI HD6950)
I ended up chatting to a mate of mine and watching the big tv screen. Some real effort has gone inthere to getting "up to date info". It had new capsuleers annoucements, markets, incursions and sov changes. Mixed with some nice quality video's from the different trailers of eve and I kinda liked it...
It did raise the temperature of my videocard with 9-10 degrees though. But since my fan was only blowing at 32% speed I wasn't worried. To be sure tough I am keeping my temp and fan gauges on my second screen... - Hilmar getur ekki tala= vi= ¦ig n·na, hann er a= fara ß japanska Tfskuverslun.

Sometimes, I will activate th CQ in order it to watch TV while I am working on my skill plan, ship fitting, or placing a lot of market orders. The main thing I am doing with it, is waiting on the CQ and Incarna in general to become useful or at least a fun addition to my game playing rather than a piece of mediocre, once in a while, eye candy. I want to be able to walk in stations, ships, and on planets while engaging in combat through the EVE client rather than on PS3.

To be honest I would turn it back on and maybe use it for planetary trololo which I havent really tried out yet. But since I'm moving to dat nullsec the planets should be good enough to give it a go.

Most of the time I have mine set off, let's say I had enough time playing around with it.
I find it neat how they applied interface features within the environment itself! Overall it looks good but it does feel a tad too different and limited at this time.
Maybe in the future when they have expanded this part of the game more I'll have another look at it, for now I will miss spinning my ships when I'm waiting for the final minutes of my skills -_-.

With my main: walk her to the couch, and sit to do market stuff. Take a mission, then stand up, walk her to the balcony staring at her lovely hip shake. Also look for well-lighted spots, trying to find where do the tons look more lifelike.
With my mission runner alt: check corp stuff, move her around to see her absolutely lovely posterior, walk her to the balcony and stare at her lovely face in full light. Man, she is so cute! She's got Moe IV!
With my miner, PI: sit on the couch, do PI stuff, walk her around to see at the lovely shine on her red hair, try to find a well lighted spots to look at her freckles and check wether they are still there or not, keep testing her clothing.
Adn @ Sisi: test clothes, hairdos and make-up, striving for absolute gorgeousity of my Space Barbies. It's so bad that clothes are ludicrously overpriced at TQ...

I turned the station environment off after getting 30 fps in space and 3-4 fps in CQ.
Since its admittedly not optimized, there is no reason to use it in its present form.

The tv thingy is easily the best thing incarna brought out... Sure the turrets are awesome but not nearly as awesome as the ability to chill in a sofa watching TV.
If only CCP could get in touch with the clear skies creators and work out a deal to be able to show those movies on the CQ tv..

Or you could open the fitting screen. Even has a little ship-spinning window in it.
If CCP would make it so EVE opens the fitting screen automatically on docking when CQ is turned off, well that'd be swell, Wally.

What do I do in my CQ?
Well, a majority of the time I'm unloading ore so it doesn't always load in. The loading screen is like a background most of the time.
When I'm in station more than 20 seconds I usually just stand there. I'm too busy changing fits, moving cargo, repackaging ships, modifying orders.
If I do walk around, I go to the couch and sit. Not much else to do then watch the screens, which I must admit, are quite impressive. I did walk out to see my Orca once, but afterward I rarely walk about.

Normally walk over tot he sofa and select sit. Many times I walk to the back of the sofa so I can watch the avatar jump over the sofa. Occasionally use the ship hologram or the PI TV.
Did you know the TV tells you if your clone is out of date?
To whoever said they have no mirror: turn interior effect to at least medium.

I avoid it.
I curse at the expansion it came from due to the massive jump in lag issues for those of us that don't have MondoMassiveDownloadSpeeds.
IMO Incarna to date has been a FAR WORSE THAN WORTHLESS pain in the ass excuse for a so-called expansion on ALL points.

I take it easy in my duct-taped sofa and start manufacturing high quality Amarr shuttles of such utter quality you won't find it anywhere else. Such a contrast that I have to sit on that minmatar sofa while my slaves are making the best quality and most beautiful space-craft ever made.
Then I watch myself in the mirror and stroll around.
Occasionally I look at the door with that blinking light, that tells me that station interior is too contaminated... somehow my cq is still ok. Of course I am not going to breath in some contaminated airs but it feels strange being in a duct-taped minmatar cq and the air inside it is seemingly ok, while the actual Amarr station is contaminated.
Sometimes I walk on to the balcony and shout at my ship's crew to bring over some slaves over for some "fun", but I don't think they can hear me over here.
