I also would like corpses to be able to be strapped to my hulls 'reaver' style for that awesome demoralization effect.
Yes yes yeessss REAVER Style imagine how sansha ships would look with a couple of noobs strapped to them spikes.. |

Hmm, that's gooing to be a lot of work, collecting all these corpses. May I humbly suggest, that salvage drones get a corpse collection program so that they can be sent out to salvage a battlefield for corpses?

Would that be similar to the process they use to simulate bird strikes on Jet engines?
Shooting frozen chickens from a "chicken cannon" into working Jet engines sounds like it would be a laugh tbh.

So what are we looking at, kinetic damage?
Perhaps if the corpse had a 5 course Mexican bean dinner before death, we could have some explosive damage too, maybe some thermal.

Back when WiS was going to be a real thing (beyond CQ), one of the major features CCP talked about was corpse displays.
If any of these ideas come true I might have to add frozen corpses to my overview... |

That should be out before next International Talk Like a Pirate Day so that pirates (and the rest of us) could celebrate that festival properly. Of course, then you should also distribute a few complimentary corpses so people can test it before they fire away their prized corpsicles. |

There's nothing at all outdated about it. PLAYERS selected the trade hub station, not CCP. If players had really cared about repair services, they would have gone with one of the other stations.
If it were truly outdated, all players would need to do is start trading in one of the other stations. Player Laziness, or general lack of caring, is not just reason, for ccp to change a station, to accomodate a couple. |

screw the splat, I want it to hit and bounce off of the hull in a cartoonish and comedic fashion, and i want optimal range/skills/etc. to determine hit or miss, so there's a chance you can just fire a corpse off into space never to be seen again... maybe it can crash-land in the middle of a Dust 514 matchup.
Give us planetary corpse launchers that don't require ridiculous hoops to jump through.. |

Put those together in any way you care...

If I could put live ammo (Marines, etc) in it, I would finally have use for al those people I have gathered in missions, but haven't sold for isk. Actually... that'd be fun: Firing away the "boarding party" at the enemy. Space Marines for the win! |

This is the day. After twenty months of grueling training and two weeks in transit, the Fourth Orbital Marine Platoon is engaging in its first drop. We're as ready as humanly possible. A few of the guys have the shakes and I'm pretty sure Johnson was puking behind the bulkhead earlier, but I know when it hits the fan, I can count on these guys. The gear is stowed, we've triple-checked each others' kits and suits, and my squad is loaded in their drop pods. As is the tradition, I walk down the row, giving each hatch a sharp tap to let the boys know we're good to go.
I get in my command pod, the techs lock me in, and the computer fires up. My view is filled with biometrics and tactical data. I go through the final checklist on autopilot, and reach with one finger to flip the switch that signals our squad is good to go.
We're ahead of schedule, and the two minute wait in these titanium bullets stretches on forever. Finally there's the familiar whirring sound that indicates we're being loaded, and the rush of acceleration that no amount of inertial dampening can suppress as we're propelled out the side of an Abaddon-class battleship and toward our destination. Handrix, our resident daredevil, can't resist a hearty "WOO!" as we go ballistic.
I start into a typical sergeant's speech about what to do when we land. Then men know this by heart, but they also know that I'm talking to keep them focused more than I am to tell them anything they don't know. Just as I am saying "check your mates' gear as soon as possible", Johnson's biometrics go dead. Then Ramirez. Then Drabek and two more. I start to call out and see the rest of the squad blinking out one at a time. I switch on my external camera just as the last pod ahead of me smashes into the hull of a Ferox-class battlecruiser. I'm ten seconds behind him.
I just have time to voice my final thought: "F---ing capsuleers."

I have been oh so fortunate enough to receive said rant about corpses and corpse launchers. Something about how corpses will eventually destroy EVE if we don't do something about them...
Fozzie makes quite the argument about it.
