I'd rather have to wait for WiS a longer time for it to be implemented in a proper EVE way, immersed in the gritty EVE universe, with a real impact on the economy. It should be another box in the sandbox that is EVE. If you don't want it, you don't have to play it. But you should have easy access to it. Comparable to wormholes now.
Exact numbers aside, there is a significant portion of the player base that wants a properly done WiS.
Perhaps just as many then players that want big alliance controled, player built stargates. |

I'm not against the new vision of a whole new area of space. There were certainly players demanding it.
I'm not so fond of the current idea of making that new space only avalable to big nullsec alliances. Such a big addition to the game should be available to all players! That is the nature of a sandbox game. But as long as we don't know any details, I'm confident CCP will not make that mistake and intruduce some 'back doors'.
If there is one thing this thread (and many before) shows, is that there is a sizable part of EVE players who want more WiS. If someone doesn't want it, they can keep ship spinning. |

Quote:Why, what's the difference? Avatars in a bar is avatars in a bar
That's not realy the point. If Avatar gameplay is only going to be sitting in a bar, it will fail miserably. I'm sure CCP knows that. Avatar gameplay should be more than that. There are more than enough exciting suggestions if you care to search for them.
I'm also sure everybody, including the most adamant WiS supporters, want the further balancing of the space aspects of the game. That is also not the point.
But taking a few devs out of projects like DUST to work on avatar content in EVE might get the ball running without inpact on the FiS improvements.

One thing remember about shops and bars in stations, is that most stations now are virtually empty. Most likely the trade hubs will be overcrowded (and overpriced), some minor hubs will be moderately populated and a lot of stations (I' m guessing more than half) will be empty. A possible solution could be to open only one or two corporations per faction and perhaps SOE to WiS.
There should be enough exiting and unique content that can only be done in stations to keep them interesting. Stations should not be safe. The risk vs. reward paradigm of EVE should play here also. You should be able to make or lose a lot of ISK in stations through gambling, fighting, smuggling,... WiS should not become a carebear environment.
For that to happen, it would be best to take a gradual approach. No halleluyah expansion of half decent features. |
