CCP should just build multiboxing support right into the client (allowing you to control multiple accounts from the same client) and reclassify the game as an MMO-RTS/MMO-RPG hybrid.
Multiboxers get to keep playing Eve as an MMO-RTS.
Single players get to keep palying Eve as an MMO-RPG.
Noone has to worry about 3rd party apps.

This needed its own thread?
We all thought CSM 6 was a war crime with it's massive Null Presence
CSM7 topped it by selling out our Council to CCP, don't let it happen again. Vote or next time Incarna is your fault.

Serious proposal. Why can't Eve be an MMO-RTS? |

For clarification, are you referring to people who play with programs such as ISBoxer or people who play multiple accounts and give each and every account individual commands?
IMHO, there is a difference from someone who runs 2, 3, 4 ... x accounts independently and someone who runs 2, 3, 4 ... x accounts off the same keystrokes. Can you clarify your stance?
And I do agree, another thread? |

If you could control multiple accounts from the client then there would be no differance between the players you mention. They would all use the Eve client to control their many or few accounts.
There are many games out there that let you control more than one "unit" at a time. Eve could function just like them, becoming a true MMO-RTS. |

One more clarification please, if you will.
Is there difference, in your opinion, from someone running multiple clients one (or more) PCs/Macs and issuing all commands independently and one person running multiple clients and using software to issue commands?
I honestly don't see why the either could be compared to an RTS. In an RST you are command X 'units' in one client, in either case .... I fell for the troll..... |

That whooshing sound in your ears is CCP moving mountains to implement this idea.
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'no.' |

Your question is not relevant to the proposal.
My proposal is to turn Eve into an MMO-RTS. I.E. Control X units in one client, the Eve client.
In other words allow someone to control more than one account at a time within the Eve client itself. |

When did multiboxing become an issue?

There is no "Multiboxing Issue".
There's just a bunch of whiny forum gnats that can't be arsed to run more than one client at a time. Don't like that you can't do it? Get a better rig/internet connection.

lol @ poeple that think CCP will get rid of people multi-boxing. I still havent seen a legitimate reason as to why CCP should disallow this and in the process, hurt their bottom line. CCP is a business people. They only care about one thing: Taking your hard earned cash.

We already have a solution to the multiboxing problem.
It's called smartbombing battleships. Addresses those fields of Mackinaws and Hulks quite well.

Quote:So, what do our plans entail? In short and among other things we are working on improving the self-update mechanism for the EVE Launcher, as well as its ability to download and update your EVE client, integration with digital distribution platforms like Steam and support for multi-box and test-client installations.
I'm just gonna leave this here...

Now i have to ask, whats this issue you refering to? Theres no issue. Anyone can use even opensource solution to controll as many client as needed. So why you want CCP to invent wheel again?
Not too much difference in im running those client from single keyboard or if i have two laptops on desk with my desktop machine all running eve and controlling them separately.

because you're not the leader of a large alliance. once you start having to do that (and you distance yourself from the corp/alliance to the point where you're telling people to tell people to mine/fight/whatever) ... then it's a MMO-RTS...
then again, you could be ... and this is just a forum alt.
