It does limit control though. werent those also stated as being excessively large, expensive, and difficult to put into MOST ships? |

Eh. I love the idea myself. There is a crew (supposedly) on these ships. I have to assume they are moving about it, working, etc.
So to keep yourself in your jelly pod if you want to stay with concept, go with a little hoverbot that you can see through and interact with. Lets you have the views of the ship, or a Virtual quarters.
Will it ever happen? Doubtful. But I do like the idea and would love to see it. In particular when I am out on mining ops.

Guys I don't think you all understand, I'm talking about real hard fact here, not about eve lore.
Even if CCP wanted to do this, by some strange chance. They can't.
The current code won't support it, the code is also the same reason why we can't have people piloting the fighter drones from carriers :\ |

This is about the only time I could see such a feature being used, maybe level 1-3 missions and high sec exploration sites. None the less for PvE and mining ops it would still be kinda cool. What would happen if your ship was destroyed when you were on the bridge any way? Would you magically transport to your pod or wake up in station?

Because I think this thread has been referenced, and has a valid concept- and it's use and implementation certainly belongs among the discussion here

thanks OP for thinking 'outside the pod' |

Nothing, since you CANT be on the bridge and missioning at the same time.
the way the engine works, means you have to enter a session change everytime it loads a enw environment. that emans switching from your ship to your "ship" would mean you ship would dissappear from realspace, or if its being shot, all the modules would stop cycling and it would sit there until it aggression stops against it for 15 minutes, adn then dissappear if its not dead.
fact is, you just cant have your character in 2 places doing 2 separate thinsg at nce, with the way the EVE engine works. |

it is completely wrong to say that we are all sitting in a pod and we can not get out of them,
hmm it must be char still dare not leave the womb ..
As mentioned earlier, EVE is ONLY a game and therefore it is possible to walk on a bridge ...
IF CCP sometime in the beginning had made the bridge you would never have thought about it, and when someone came and said that we all should live in jelly goo that tastes a spacecows, then it would probably be wrong, who would manage the ship or control the coffee shop when we had to sit in a pod like a jellybean
Um, the trailers that have capsuleers walking around have them doing so on a station, not on an in-flight ship. One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia Malcanis for CSM8 |

also, the whole thing OP wants it for is so he can **** around unable tod efend himself while missioning/mining. the WHOEL REASON OP wants it is irrelevant because to eb IN that instance, you would have to dissappear from space, as the server does not support 2 places at once.
on top of all that, if you WANTED to allow your person to get out of their pod, and use some lore-excuse for why you can, i still want to reiterate that everyone on your ship would LOVE to stab you dead.
capsuleers are mosnters, anyone who gets half a chance to actually 'murder' one, would, especially if they arent in their pod, cause that makes PERMADEATH.
but seriously, this si a bad idea, if you want to play Star Trek Captain, go play Star Trek Online.
Walking in stations will eventually be good, but walking in ships will ALWAYS be derp-head stupid. |

I think he was referring to the "holographic avatar" idea. Which isn't against the lore at all.
I would be all for being able to view the inside of my ships (just the bridge would be cool to begin with) either with a holographic avatar while in flight or without crew in my actual body (I don't want to risk them killing me) while docked.
Some interaction with the crew (Talking to the quartermaster, being able to customize them, seeing the passengers in your cargo, etc.), would also be cool.
However I don't think coding this while in-flight would be feasible (if it is, I am all for it).
And I would much rather have walking in stations be done first. I would enjoy interacting with my fellow capsuleers in stations more than I would enjoy interacting with my NPC crew.
But this sounds like a cool project for the people working on walking on stations whenever that is finished. |

Team Avatar no longer exists, CCP has stated that they wil have no one working on WiS or Avatar content for the forseeable future because a few buttmunches couldnt stop whining and threatening to unsub their supposed gazillions of accounts if CCP leaves even one person to develop WiS. |

WoD (world of darkness) exists, and the beta for it is WiS (walking in stations)- we will have it at the cost of those subscriptions because CCP knows full well that if you want to make an omelet you have to break a few eggs.
Nobody wants stupid stuff in this game, but options to improve a user experience will be pressed upon us even if we scream and stomp our feet ( though you have been doing enough of that in this thread alone for most of us Nariya)- we may come to love those resulting improvements, but then again they may be something we chose to not use... like any number of play styles in the existing game..
I for one have never mined anything ever in my career, and I don't think I ever will- but that doesn't mean mining is awful (though I hear it's wildly amusing for the afk crowd)... it's just not for me. THAT is what will become of WiS, so have no fear... it's been a feature in the works, just under a different header than EVE... we'll be testing it out again for them one day- those vampires better be grateful

I think that being able to walk around in your ship is a great idea. I would also like the stations to "open" so that you could walk around and meet other players. |

Maybe bring some DUST style fighting too the station interiors.
The stations must be big enough for vehicles, I swear the one at Jita 4-4 must be the size of a Dyson sphere inside to fit all that it does... Cloaking being on a ten minute manual cycle timer? (Author: Bree Okanata) Fine. As long as there is a ten minute timer for being docked in a station. Also, you can't stop moving in the game. Just add in a way so every ten minutes you are randomly warped to the nearest other player. Keeps people from going AFK. |
