awwwww pooo poo no emoting for you with a bunch of other dudes in "a room"
You could say all interaction in this game is basically dumb at its base level. "Awww poo, not shooting fake lasers at imaginary star ships". The major point of an MMO is to foster human interaction in a setting where they can work together or against each other and have fun. Fostering that human interaction is where WiS should go in the first place. The fact is why does walking in stations have to affect in space content directly? It really doesn't, especially in its first iterations. If you don't need this, then don't do it. It isn't all about what you like, its also about what everyone else will like too, and continuing to polish EvE forever without actually adding new and different content will only make the game die.
Stations should be separate place were people can interact with each other, buy things, sell things, under the table deals, chat, interact, and relax. Be a business man, open a casino, bar, or corporate recruiting office. There are so many possibilities. Have a little imagination.

Yeah seriously. Id love to see some kind of response to this thread by CCP. Whats going to happen after the POS overhaul? What other extremely large projects need fixing? Null sec sov maybe? Then what? I question how many hours of work these tweaks have actually taken, considering they used to make giant additions with each patch. Remember Apocrypha? How is one of these new patches even half what that expansion was? I like the tweaks, but it cant be taking all of everyone's time, especially since they listen to the community (Sitting and waiting/listening for weeks of feedback isn't actually working on anything).
This kind of polish is great, but finish this **** already. Its been a long time since Incarna, get your tweaks done with and move forward with new features like WiS or else this game is going to die, and your company will be taken down with it. Null sec players wont keep this game alive, they only have the largest mouths, and the most freetime. |

This guy is just a super forum troll. Logic is impervious to the thickness of his skull. Any argument, no matter how well crafted will have him spouting 'Herp derp, barbies and furries" nonsense because he has no real argument. This works great in convincing absolutely no one of any actual cons to walking in stations. All it does is show how much of a **** this guy is, or anyone who genuinely believes that the implementation of WiS would be equivalent to barbies and furries.
EvE is a great game, and it will grow to be even better when everyone starts ignoring people with no imagination or vision. The word "never" should be changes to, 'if we can figure out how to correctly implement". |

Can we just ignore the troll and get back to the discussion? I reported him, hope he at least gets banned from this thread so it can stay on topic, and without the petty name calling.
I don't think shooting game play initially is the way to go. The original idea was sound, a place to unwind and relax while doing social things seems like a good idea to me. All the riots were because captains quarters isn't this. It was not social, it was useless, and it was forced on us. Ship spinning was removed which angered many. The overpriced Nex store, and the "Greed is good" memo also caused distrust and spite between players and CCP. I don't think anyone here really wants an overpriced clothing store for their avatars. They want to walk in stations, talk to people and do the whole multiplayer thing there too. |

Right, "hide posts" really helps with that.

Hopefully they can fix things so large alliances/coalitions can be hurt and hurt badly by smaller corporations/alliances before something like this is implemented. If they make blobs and brute force numbers obsolete in favor of tactics beyond what we see now, then you'll see regimes toppled (and forums filled with nullsec whiners saying CCP destroyed nullsec). |

Probably true. We will very likely see some Avatar gameplay after Sov fixes and after POS fixes. This post might be a year old, but they had a working prototype then so I assume they aren't going to waste assets and trash all the ideas they have built up, just push them further away. The iteration on existing features is coming to a close, the majority of the balancing done, faction warfare is revamped, exploration is revamped, we have new ships, crime watch, and a bunch of tweaks and such. One the other two big tweaks are finished, I assume the time table is around a year for that, then we will see new stuff come out. |

They had a working prototype of Incarna back in 2008, station promenades, establishments and everything, and they apparently threw it away after the fanfest. Though this isn't exactly unheard of in gaming industry, the most infamous example being Duke Nukem Forever that went through something like probably 7 development phases before another studio took it over. And Blizzard has trashed their mystery MMO (codenamed Titan) at least twice.
Where did you hear that? That would have been stupid lol, those assets are still worth something (if done well). I assume the majority of the models and textures exist. I know about Duke Nukem forever, the main reason they continued trashing assets was because of engine changes, and just a really really long dev period. Honestly the 5 year old assets still look pretty impressive even by today's standards, it would be foolish to throw them away.

Yeah totally. The corporation you are in isn't about the way avatars look or anything. 
I wonder why stargate building is being pushed before WIS. Stargate building is something only a select few can actually be part of, where WIS would be for almost everyone. So much classism in EvE development.
You really think someone would do that? Just log into EvE and tell lies? |

Not everything you *think* belongs into a category actually belongs into said category. :) Maybe you should just open your eyes, see, compare and think. Don't be a narrow minded victim, like the posters above you. :)

Dust 514 players will be getting to explore derelicts in the manner suggested by the OP. EVE players will not. Pffft... The thought of Dust surviving that far into the future are fairly implausible.
I don't think Dust will die on the PS3. The last thing CCP will do with Dust, if its in really dire straits, is a PC port. If it dwindles on PC, then the plug will be pulled, but it probably wouldn't dwindle on the PC for a while, since it would get a large influx of EvE players, general PC shooter players, and other players without PS3's.
As long as they are smart and have this contingency, then Dust will survive into the future. If they developed without a PC port in mind (which with keyboard and mouse control is fairly obvious that they did plan for this), then it could potentially be in trouble as the amount of money to make a port might exceed the expected return of said PC port.

This is good realistic answer. I doubt Dust will not come to PC within the next 4 months, and I don't think CCP would announce its coming to PC on the EvE website either. I think it will be something related to fan-fest.

It's always a surprise what promises CCP decides to keep and which ones it's hopes we forget.
Now please excuse me whilst I go enjoy my modular POS after doing some ring mining with the new direct X 11 effects, I think I may even drop by the 10 year vet station to catch up with mates in a player establishment and play with some custom paint jobs for my ship.
Oh wait...
But at least we got a monument .. right ... right?
There are so many awesome idea that they could do and have even put work into and then just ******* scrap. It wears on my patience to see a game with infinite potential be run like this. They don't want to touch the spaghetti code because that's totally going to magically change later. Good foresight there. Why make the system better when you could procrastinate and get nothing done? A project gets 80% done? Scrap the whole damn thing, why iterate on something when you can just start from scratch.

Up untel star citizen gets released and a few other games they have 0 competition in the market.. Wonder how there going to fair when they actually have to be viable again... Not comparing EvE to wow but they went though the same issues Ya Rift might not have been a wow killer but GW2 Rift TSW and other mmos picked away at there user base because they cant seem to evolve.. Same principle applies.
Im honestly not afraid of star citizen. It isn't even out yet and people have thrown money at it, it could be terrible in practice. Its selling an idea right now, and ideas vs. reality can be very different. I agree though if somehow the actual implement all the things they talk about then EvE will have some decently stiff competition, at least for highsecers moving away from EvE. Id love to see PLEX prices when all the people that actual sell them leave the game lol.

Haven't you seen the two year old threadnaught where players from all across EVE voice their interest in a SOV revamp.
Oh that's right. There isn't one.

Sov is dead, there will be no rework.
at best it will be replaced with deployable modules that confer some type of Sov, but that's it. I don't blame CCP though for going with the cheapest option for null sec as we're talking about a tiny minority of players who actually have an interest in sov.
The only way to increase the interest in it is to fix it so smaller groups can take systems. I also wouldn't say around 1/5 of the player base to be small. It will be iterated on, but probably not fixed immediately.
