No, I just counted the number of people that posted pro-WiS in this thread. Perhaps you have a funny concept of math? |

We hear you guys loud and clear and realize that there is still strong support for a multiplayer, avatar based experience in EVE (we also hear those that donGÇÖt want it). However, we think youGÇÖll agree that it has to be a compelling experience and there was a feeling amongst our people that the direction we were taking with the Establishments feature wasGǪ well, not that fun. Additionally, we wanted to ensure that our rendering technology was finely tuned to a point that would ensure all of your characters continued to look great while performing well.
ItGÇÖs humbling to see the support in this thread for a multiplayer Incarna experience and we are still committed to providing it, as and when itGÇÖs ready. We want to take the time to do it right and ensure you guys get something that is both fun and involving. There are no promises about when this will happen, just rest assured that while you are enjoying your space based updates this winter, there will continue to be movement on this.
I'm sad establishments won't be in the Winter expansion, as I truly looked forward to everything Incarna had to offer. I am, at the same time, delighted to hear you commit to doing something with Incarna, and that the door will eventually open -- even if you can't tell yet when that's going to be.
Not that it matters, but, for the record, I am a WiS lover; and I am not alone, I can assure you that!

Players already gave lots of ideas about how to make Incarna fun. It was mainly about running covert ops and pirating missions. Gambling (mini-games) and watching exotic dancers while drinking quafe was a nice plus to have, but not worth the effort for the added value.
An example: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1529922
Of course CCP knows it, but can't deliver on time and I understand, because it's a huge task, impossible to deliver in a 6 months timeframe. |

If you can't find some value in having a real area to occupy with other pilots as avatars in a station, then don't through the door but stop saying lots of folks wouldn't find value in what that offered and that even something simple in that direction would expand the appeal of Eve to the folks that won't play because they can't leave their ship.

Can you give me an example of something simple, but fun, CCP could do with WiS? So far the suggestions I've heard have either seemed very involved (aka development time hogs) or pointless. Do you have a specific suggestion that you think evades both those problems? |

The ideas I've heard so far have certainly all fallen into one of those three categories. Examples include basically just creating an empty hallway players can stand in together (not fun), moving features that you can currently access via the station interface to NPCs you would have to go talk to (pointless), or complex designs involving establishments and NPC offering new types of missions (too much work).
That's why I oppose WiS. I haven't heard any suggestions that could justify the drain of dev resources. But if somebody has an idea that would be easy to make and not completely pointless, I'd totally support that. |

Just because you can't see something as fun doesn't mean other folks wouldn't. For example, two fanfests ago there was an amazing video of a hangar full of a huge range of ships, a viewing gallery of docked ships would be amazing. My corp for example would love a corporate meeting room and lounge. We'd also like a recruiting office. A know a lot of players that would be very happy with that as a start.
That you wouldn't enjoy that isn't my problem because a number of folks would.
