This will never be "done" or "worked out", because some people will never be satisfied.

You know, that should be possible, because WiS is largely needing graphic assets (and optimization and a handful of fixes) that Sov and Pos should not require as much if at all, as far as I've understood it POS/Sov people want redesigned mechanics. But I'm not sure because I don't own either. |

There's a big difference between "holy **** this sucks" and "some people will never be satisfied". Right now it's the former, once CCP got it to "yup, that'll do nicely" status they can start working on WiS.

So you have no idea what you're talking about but that's not going to stop you from advocating that CCP ignore broken game mechanics to add more emotes and space pants. Thanks for the useless input I guess. |

So, you want CCP to copy SC's model and accept donations for early access to incomplete features?

But, I have to believe you that it will work too? I lack that much faith in CCP's ability to deliver things that work on time that also meet player expectations. I think you mean it "could work" and not: "would work", because you have no idea unless you can predict the future.
Given what went down last time, I'm convinced if CCP does not release a version of "WIS" that contains something to do that aligns with EVE's cold and dark universe philosophy other than just being seen wearing or arranging vanity items, it's not going to bring in any new players, and that's where CCP is going to be focused once iterations and re-balancing are good enough to do so.

Not really since WiS has nothing to do with real Eve gameplay which is spaceships and the industry that supports them.

I do... you can get them on NeX... just kidding.
I'm not saying that CCP should ignore everything that is broken in the game right now... and if they'd build a dedicated team for the whole "avatar gameplay" (not calling it WiS anymore) they wouldn't have to ignore them.
Look, I know the chances for the project ever taking off again are slim... very slim... but I believe that something could come out of it that actually would benefit the game... not only the "furries" and "roleplayers" ...that's all.

Any resources they waste on a separate team dedicated to roleplaying nonsense are resources that could have been used to improve and enhance Eve's core gameplay. |

Lets get this thread back on subject please.
All gamers that I have talked to about Eve Online at some of the game conventions I have attended as well as Friday night gatherings of the dads (those of us with kids) all agree that the space game is the main focus of Eve, however- avatars are a viable conduit to expand our experience in the Eve Universe. Since 2011 we have seen the avatar for Eve boxed up and kept in a CQ which is a mistake. The entire protest that spawned this debate had to do with the cash shop. Lets get back to focusing on the future of Eve after the repair of Eve has been completed. One of the main complaints I have read over the years is how new content is added, revised, then never touched again such as Planetary Interaction. Now the CQ's fall under this as well. We all can agree that we love our ships but we also saw through the ploy of a cash shop with avatars. At the root of this is resources for developers, artist, etc. Lets look at the WOD tech and see how it can be applied to Eve Online. If we resist letting CCP grow Eve then we risk alienation and separation from the future of the 50 year plan. I am sure a well balanced development and deployment schedule can be set.
Personally, Dust 514 is not the solution for avatars in New Eden. We are. .:=[ObscuriLateris.com--áMining Corp]=:. .:=[ObscuriSoft.com- Soft Development]=:. |

And it was the forced downscaling of the WoD development that left CQ in the state it is.
When the tech in WoD is at an acceptable level of functionality you can be sure that CCP is going to take a very close look on it to see what could be used in EvE.

At least you got this part right. Dust was always going to be a failure and people thinking that it can be used as a way to cram non-spaceship content into Eve are delusional. Again, resources that are currently being wasted on Dust should be refocused on Eve. WoD is just vaporware at this point so I'm not worried about it at all.

I think a fine line has to be drawn between Eve and Dust 514 in terms of content and talent, but make note I do support the deployment of Dust 514 and the integration into Eve as well as WiS. I don't support the cash shop for Eve, I feel the players should craft all clothing items which again requires resources and lots of time. I do feel Dust 514 has more potential after playing with the UDK development tools for the UT III Engine. And we can see MMO after MMO from South Korea with the same engine making rather large worlds to explore and play in. And I promise I do not imply to copy the wow formula (me hates wow). A FPS lobby is not essentially the sole solution for New Eden since it is so large. The strength behind Dust 514 is Eve and the technology that integrates both games, it is pioneering. The Dev's report from the beginning of this thread is how many pilots would appreciate a more Eve-sh approach to game play for an Eve avatar. Although the original plans for WiS in terms of content are still acceptable like Sec Wars.
After 2011 I doubt we will see any WiS for quite some time. I hope I am wrong. Maybe there is hope with colonization but I doubt it. Avatars just might be dead in this game due to the community and the cash shop. It might be dead as flying over the surface of a moon in Eve. time will tell-
Fly eradicate!!
