So why no ingame gambling?
With a vid screen in CQ you can have virtual slots, poker, chess...whatever, for isk.
Why not CCP?
Give CQ a reason for existing.

Look! Another one of these threads.
Because people are not lining up to subscribe to a spaceship MMO so they can play video poker.
also :effort:
Why not bring back the jukebox? That would probably get a lot more use.

So just what the fk is CQ for? Strutting around looking at your clothes?

1) We actually had a working and meaningful in-game "Winamp". It was never touted as a feature of the game and was widely used.
2) What is a failed experiment for $1000 jeans Alex. 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 'Hodor'. |

It is a constant reminder of what happens when CCP ignores real Eve gameplay to cater to roleplayers.
EVE is a game about spaceships and there's an enormous amount of work to do on the in-space gameplay before players (or developers) are ready to sacrifice it for a totally new type of gameplay - CCP Rise |

I would not play video poker inside a video game inside of my computer where I can already play video poker.
There's a game called planet Calypso you can play right now where just firing your gun at something is literally placing a bet. Knock yourself out.

Did I fail to mention you can run around emoting and can play dressup too while drinking virtual alcohol?

If you know odds well enough to be a good gambler, then you know very well the odds are not worth risking.
Knowing the odds makes you an informed gambler. What you do with that information can lead to disaster or riches. I know people that consistently succeed at one or the other and others that basically break even consistently enough to get the high while never going to deep.
I myself only partake in $10 - $20 crap tables period. At the least the lost money can be wrtten off as cost to drink.

When the CQ was first implemented, it was only good for 2 things: ganking video cards and creating hordes of ship spinning tearfest threads.
They fixed those, and now all its good for is making slow motion walking videos to Imagine Dragons "Radioactive", or seeing how it looks when I walk around in circles with 2 cybernetic arms. Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |

This, I wish theyd just remove it and admit it was a mistake and doesnt belong.
Let the "work on WiS or I walk" ppl walk. Go play Start citizen or something.

At this stage, I'll repeat the suggestion I made 3 years ago: spin WiS/Incarna/Ambulation off into a seperate game with deep EVE links, fund it with Kickstarter, and let a new dedicated team that will give it the ongoing attention it merits handle it. CCP as presently structured will never be able to give WiS the full attention it needs to become anything worth while. Here is my CSM9 endorsement list - vote for diversity of expertise : Ali Aras-á Mangala Solaris-á Mike Azariah-á Steve Ronuken James Arget-á Xander Phoena-á Sugar Kyle-á corbexx-á mynnna-á progodlegend-á Psychotic Monk-á Jayne Fillion
