This is sort of a pie in the sky suggestion, but seeing some games like SWTOR having nice voice acting and compelling storylines in the game really got me jealous. But Kael, you say, maybe you should just go play it if you love it so much. (I know the troll watchers will say) I may but that's not my point. My point is that it would be wonderful if EVE also had a more fulfilling and engaging mission system, with cutscenes, and voice acting...
Of course, this won't be practical for all the missions as there are just too many agents in EVE, but just for the storyline ones, like Sister Alitura, the COSMOS ones, and the missions which raise your factional standings. It wouldn't be too much to ask I think... just something that they already do for EVE trailers and cut scenes. It would make it a lot more fun for newcomers, and also make missioning a little more fun than a tedious grind that drives people to just bot them or buy alts with standings.
Another thing that can make mission grinding more fun, BADGES, more badges. We already have them for Factional Militia, and private corp ones, but I think that raising your standings with say Kaalakiota should earn you some sort of merit badges and trinkets from them. Which you can maybe display in your CQ trophy shelf, place on your uniform, or maybe even resell on NeX. Personally, I would love to go and grind some boring mission if I could collect same Khanid medallion or Brutor Tribe tribal knife as a trophy, or perhaps a Ishukone tattoo. These are just eye candy after all, but sometimes these little bits of eye candy and cutscenes give more life to the genre in New Eden, and definitely makes grinding missions less boring.
Thoughts?

If the reason why we do missions is money, fame and power. Then I think people would be much happier if CCP focuses on balance issues related to missioning.

I agree with both of you... especially badges for mission runners would be a very neat RP-feature but then again, there is probably plenty of stuff those mission runners will be much more happy about in terms of bug fixing and balancing.

That said, who knows, maybe some CCP dev picks it up and implements it as a pet project if a few players with skills in the design compartment came up with some solid suggestions.

this a more sound approach to the problem than fluff stuff. Badge or say a review/fixing of the e-war in missions for example, I would take an e-war review hands down. Not asking for its removal, jsut be nice if it reflected the same strength and chances of player e-war. This would be better to not confuse players who go wtf...a pos rat has me on lockdown just like that but to get the same effect in a recon or eaf or scorpion...I need ship skill 5 and still not up to NPC e-war power. Considering recon 5 or BS 5 aren't the fastest trains in eve....bit of a disparity there.
Well that in missions like serp.. blockade. Unless it has changed (took a bit of an eve break, came back and haven't seen it yet) its not so much as challenging as jsut really frigging annoying.
