Well the door needs unlocked to go get the EVA suit?....I just want non-spaceshippy sci fi gameplay sprinkled with the spaceship gameplay. This isn't supposed to be space ship only. Eve set out to be the world's largest and greatest SCIENCE FICTION SIMULATOR, not just a spaceship simulator. |

Anything other than seeing areas like this when walking into a sleeper facility will disappoint me. |

Abdiel Kavash wrote:Without seeing the prototype, judging only by your post, I just can't see any connection between my exploration party derping around a space station looking for artifacts, and the grand political strategy of empires made up of thousands of players fighting each other for space dominance. It could just as well be a whole new game set in the EVE universe, only loosely if at all connected to the EVE game at all (not unlike Dust).
Because DUSTies stay on planets like the plebs they are. As capsuleers vying for dominance, we all seek any way possible to one up each other, including but not limited to exploring Sleeper derelicts looking for shinies to use. Think of it as exploration anomalies, but on a station, in a suit, and with a gun in your hands.
Quote:I don't see how the avatar gameplay could bring anything new to the player-player interaction EVE is based upon. In the form you describe it as, I don't expect it to become anything more than PI right now - just a gimmicky minigame to gather X resource. Only without the meta-game of fighting over planets. I don't see why I should prefer EVE-avatar-sim over activating a codebreaker module, and playing a proper full FPS/3PS game afterwards.
Are you trolling? Player-player interaction with humanized avatar's tend to humanize the players themselves as opposed to making them abstract hunks of metal. People like interacting with people, not hulls. Just because YOU don't doesn't mean others wouldn't like it. It's a more fun experience to invade and look around for tech than sit there in a ship while your codebreaker cycle. Not everyone enjoys dull experiences. Change can be good.
Quote:Many people want there to be more significant content for smaller groups of people. So allow players to board/infiltrate an enemy Infrastructure hub, and hack the upgrades installed within. Or for larger squads even disable station services. The IHub's owners in the same system will be alerted can also enter and defend it. Otherwise it's defended by automated platforms (possibly allow these to be upgraded as an IHub upgrade too). If the attacker succeeds, the hacked upgrade(s) will be disabled for a period of time, or until the attackers are driven out by the defenders. The longer the attacker can hold the hack, the longer the upgrades are disabled. This encourages both sides to reinforce the ongoing avatar battle with more spaceships bringing in troops, and to stop the enemy from doing the same. If the respawn mechanic of avatars somehow depends on who is holding the space grid over the IHub, the fight could quickly escalate to a battle both in space and in the corridors.
Me gusta....seriously, with a stealth infiltration ship, this kind of gives small corps an upper hand versus the big guy. I like.

But please, don't make it in the way that someone can one-shoot you. It would kill all fun.
Are you kidding? That'd make it MORE fun. Picture it, exploring a sleeper station, harvesting some stuff. Suddenly that jerk that podded you a few weeks back and spammed your mail is in the same station...problem is he isn't so "hard core" outside his ship and he sucks at FPS/3PS style gameplay. You however, do not....

Abdiel Kavash wrote: I don't see how - again, in the grand scheme of things - this is any different from exploring anomalies from my battlecruiser by shooting said sleepers with space guns. Other than the switch of the gaming genre to one perhaps not everybody (myself included) particularly enjoys. End result is the same, you go in, you shoot some NPCs, you get loot. Only the visuals differ. Is it cool, new and awesome? Definitely! Would I like to see CCP spend time on this instead of a working treaty system, corporation management tools, starbase mechanics, less tedious sov grinding? I don't think so.
OK think of it this way...how are you more able to get intact loot in greater volumes, extracting it EVA? Or blasting it to smithereens? Think about it. You'd get more intact and new items going in than just shooting em up. Picture this. We use PLEX for 30-days IGT. The implants DUSTies use are sleeper based. Maybe those same implants can be sold (intact) at high prices for bonus items or abilities, or as better gear or something. I don't know what you know about physics, but fragile items like implants, soldier armor and weaponry etc will not be standing up to a blast from 8 tachyon beams.
So while the lazy way would make the gameplay unnecessary as you say it is, the team is working hard tyo make sure its needed AND lucrative.
Quote:I don't know how you play EVE, and I have nothing against your playstyle, whatever it is. But the way I play EVE I interact with other people daily. And I would definitely rather shoot other people in spaceships than shoot some meaningless respawning NPCs in an EVA suit.
Whats to say you cant shoot someone else in the same station trying to harvest stuff at the same time? Whats the difference between shooting them? Oh right, you'd need skill to shoot them in a station instead of just clicking a gun in space. Hah.
You wanna stay in space? Stay in space. But if executed right, these sleeper stations will hold major loot that people will let slip by because HURRHURR EVE IS SPACESHIP GAEM ONLY HURR. Not saying you're like that, but there are a few out there like that. |

While you are at it build a "scan visor" into the suit, to scan certain objects and receive information about them, a-la Metroid Prime. That was honestly the best feature for people who want to nerd out in space exploration. Example:
"This creature has suffered severe lacerations to the sternum, resulting in fatal blood loss."
Could be a way of receiving hints on how to navigate the wreck.
ALL OF MY WANT!! This feature would be amazing!!!
This would make me fall in love with Eve again.

Honestly, that feature is 60-70% the reason that Metroid Prime was such an acclaimed series, it basically seamlessly incorporates lore into gameplay, and people can choose to observe the lore or ignore it just based on their usage of scanning. Of course, not scanning would result in having less useful clues :P
I'd love to scan different Sleeper alcoves or ruins or something. Hell what happens when you find a body and it is neither Sleeper...nor Jove...nor Empire human...Talocan? Tahkmal? THE POSSIBILITIES!!! LORE COULD BE SAVED!!! |

Metal Icarus wrote:My one concern is what happens to your ship while you are in EVA? Does your ship enter a stasis mode until you are dead? Can other people board your ship and steal it?
I think that this will make implants a much more interesting market! Even a profession!
That would KILL it (in a good way). The risk would make those implants or harvested tech all the more expensive. And think of THIS.
How to make a Lore based segway into WiS proper? Well, why not use sleeper implants to modify capsuleers to be able to breath station air :p
But no really, the added risk of your ship being ****** up while you explore in the station coupled with getting ambushed...oh gawd. THAT'S pvp I could get into. |

I also demand that, with this things implementation, the ability to create a huge, buffed, dread locked, bad ass norse looking Minmatar to charge people with in station PvP.
Because there's only so many fights you can fight to DnB before you want to go person to person with someone to some viking metal. |

I already know 2 people in real life and about 10 in game who have unsubbed because they don't see any hope in Eve developing the WiS aspect any time soon. I waited 2 years for walking in stations (significantly less than alot of people) and I was a little pissed at when we got with CQ, but I still want more. Frankly, I think a 5 man team is far too small. Syna Anima wrote:Maybe in 10 years, maybe, or maybe if you hire 100 people to work on the FPS parts besides the current team. But ISK wise CCP cannot afford such things so it will have to cut from somewhere.
Although I agree with you that we should have the social walking in stations before we start adding more action gameplay that no one wanted or asked for, the quote above does show you missed something. CCP have hired 100s of people to make an FPS, besides the current Eve online team. They can afford it, its in production. Whats to stop them from using a great deal of the code from Dust directly in Eve? I'm not saying this is what I want, because I don't. I want a social, business, gambling and industry orientated WiS. But, you have to admit, it wouldn't take much would it? Nah lets face it ,CCP will forget about WIS ,until there is a new game made by the competition ,that will have it all
Nah you're wrong and just acting like a ****. Please go play world of tanks. We don't need more bitter vets around here who can't adapt. Jerk. |

Funny enough it isn't that off topic. It just gets down to the heart of the matter. The people who want WiS (casuals) and those who don't (extremists). Not to say that there's no one from groups on either that don't feel vice-versa, but still...

Camera....navi....the most being done recently is switching database code to re balance ships. Literally changing numbers. I work with clinical databases and can confirm this is no small, simple task, sure but...to focus 70-80% on that is just inefficient.
