I agree with explorable spacestations, which imo would be really awesome! Cause thats what I'm missing in eve. There is no walking around and chilling like in every other mmorpg/mmo I played so far. I mean why do people play wow as an example? cause they can walk around explore a bit or just sit under a tree and talk with their friends. At some point playing a game is not really important anymore its just some kind of "improved irc" ;) Really walking around in a spacestation and taking a drink with friends at a bar would be a great feature. You could improve that feature, by having agent offices in the spacestation where you would walk in and visit your agent to do missions. Or you could visit corporation headquarters etc. Also a really good thing would be to be able to rent a room in a spacestation, so you would have your own private player appartment. There could be also some kind of "schools" on a station where a player could go in and pays some extra isk to learn a skill, the bonus would be that say that he would learn his skill 5% faster or something, but he has to stay inside the school, if he leaves then the skill would go back to "normal learning level" till he enters the school again. As I said that service would cost isk and you would have a new money sink in the game.
I dont know if you ever played starwars galaxies, but I loved the way playerhouses worked there. I mean every existing item in the game had a real 3d object and you were able to put everything in your house. That was really by far the best feature that game had and I never saw something similar in any other game I played so far. Every player had a different house and my own house had over 50 different objects inside. I had a carpet, paintings on the wall, a bed and lots of guns on the wall and some hunting trophies. Even spaceship parts had a real 3d object, so you could put them into your house or inside the player shob and that was really great to stand next to a huge spaceship lasergun or something similar.
Also veteran rewards is something I miss in that game. They shouldn't be things which would make a player stronger or something, again starwars galaxies did a great job with veteran rewards. I mean those small holoship items looked great inside a player house on a table.
Just thinking of such features in eve online. In your own appartment inside a spacestation and you could look outside the window (if you had enough isk to buy a better priced appartment) and watch the stars.
Also for corporations there would be a hq and a planing room, a meeting room etc.
