Why is there no Interstellar Docking Scene? CCP please! elaborate. if you mean 'every time we dock a cut scene plays' i'd call that boring as ****. There is another game being made that has alot of cut scenes for mundane actions. if you mean manual docking.. that would be difficult in eve. But the reason we don;t have a docking scene is as i stated, after the 10th time you will be screaming for the scene to hurry up so you can do what you need. OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

War Kitten Panda McLegion 5999	Posted - 2015.04.09 18:02:32 - [4] - Quote Marius Reinhardt wrote: o7 I can't be the only one that thought of this... with the resources EVE has... Why is there no Interstellar Docking Scene? CCP please! Docking isn't an interstellar kind of thing. The word interstellar means between stars and doesn't apply well to docking scenes. That is, unless you're wanting to dock in one solar system and end up in another. And then the reason why we don't have that is because stargates and wormholes would get jealous since it is their purview to ferry ships from one solar system to another. They tolerate cynosaural jumping, but only barely. Interstellar docking would create an uproar. I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

Mr Epeen It's All About Me 8335	Posted - 2015.04.09 18:24:43 - [6] - Quote I have no problem with docking animations. Or any other of many that could be introduced. My only caveat is that they replace current loading screens, not add to them. Like the gate jumping animation for instance. It didn't add any time, it just gave it some interest. I'd much rather see an immersive scene when undocking than a highlighted undock button and then after some time has passed you are abruptly in space. Mr Epeen There are 86,400 seconds in a day. You just saved one of them by typing 'u' instead of 'you'.-á Congratulations, dumbass!

I could see adding this for people who have CQ enabled especially, just because watching my ship get towed in would be preferable to watching the word 'LOADING' blink over and over again.

Whittorical Quandary 40	Posted - 2015.04.09 18:38:07 - [8] - Quote Would be nice to see, as the disappear/ reappear in space kinda breaks suspension of disbelief. Maybe you can have the ship fitting window open and all inventory/station functionality while flying in. However, like others said it shouldn't add to any load time or slowdown to the game. CCP has a idea thread up considering mooring for larger ships at stations, which would kinda be like what you're asking for.

Why is there no Interstellar Docking Scene? Because there are no spinning, out of control, half-broken space stations to dock with. And if you mean a scene that plays when you dock with a station, it's because one of three things will happen: 1. It takes longer to load the docking scene than to just load the station interior. b. It just becomes a jarring audio-visual noise blip that makes the screen and sound go all wobbly without showing anything. III. It'll look ugly when the missiles and lasers people shoot at you go through the walls of the station as you're playing docking games.

But, if the scene took the same ammount of time it takes to go from space to station interier, which is like 15 seconds from 'docking request accepted' to doing stuff.. it could be interesting. But if it takes 1-2 min.. and i dock 10-30 times a day.. thats a wasted hour looking a cut scene that does nothing OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

HiltoftheDragons Grievance3 63	Posted - 2015.04.10 00:43:10 - [14] - Quote SWTOR has a cut scene for everything you do in that game....and it became very annoying after awhile. For me, it was a good move from there back to here and not seeing anymore cut scenes. Im not against them but i think its critical that they be used sparsely and be pleasing to the eye. The only cut scene i personally want gone is the warp gate animation....or as mentioned in the past.....a way to toggle it on and off. Destiny always seems decades away, but suddenly it's not decades away; it's right now. But maybe destiny is always right now, right here, right this very instant, maybe.
Pak Narhoo Splinter Foundation 1620	Posted - 2015.04.10 07:04:35 - [15] - Quote There was a dev once who made just that although it never was released outside CCP HQ. As I recall CCP found that the added 'value' of this animation was not worth it. And as other said, if you dock/undock you want to dock/undock not wait for a (un)docking animation to play out.

I'm willing to look at all sorts of animations as long as it doesn't slow stuff down. The first 3 times are fun, after that an animation will simply annoy me if it keeps me from doing anything.

Kinis Deren StarHunt Mordus Angels 466	Posted - 2015.04.11 21:14:58 - [25] - Quote This link is relevant too. The main sticking point (if you'll excuse the pun) appears to be large ships bouncing off the station interior ... see post #6 by CCP Sisyphus Quote: yeah, we wanted to do more, but when it came to seeing ships move, many of the bigger ships would hit the undocking bay walls.. Which led to the question of re-doing station interiors etc etc etc... Yeah, its still something we'd like to do more with some day.

Interstellar Film Docking Scene Also if yo usearch, u'll find that someone made it with GTA 5 aswell... That wasn't a docking scene, it's a 4 minute long collection of still photos. If you're just referring to someone recreating a movie sequence with Eve, you weren't very clear about getting the point across. Most people here assumed you meant adding a video sequence of some sort to the act of docking with a station - generally a bad idea for gameplay. I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

Why is there no Interstellar Docking Scene? CCP please! One of the trailers from a couple years back had a very brief docking animation where it basically just showed the guy's ship pull into its spot, and all the buttons and inventory displays popped up in sequence. I liked it. Anything more than that would be excessive. I also wouldn't mind an undock animation, since it seems more and more like undocking is the absolute worst thing you can ask the client program to do... even in empty systems. That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right... `[#savethelance]`
Gully Alex Foyle Black Fox Marauders Spaceship Bebop 3784	Posted - 2015.04.13 17:08:49 - [29] - Quote A cool docking and/or undocking scene would actually be quite nice, if it were toggable on the 'esc' screen. I would use it just for special occasions, like undocking my first dread, or undocking after a few weeks not having time to play, or docking back after a glorious battle. I'm sure it would be enjoyable for new players as well, for their first undocks. Not sure if it would be worth developing if it would be used - as I assume - 5% of the time or less... Make space glamorous! Is EVE dying or not? Ask the EVE-O Death-o-meter!

Joia Crenca Science and Trade Institute Caldari State 100	Posted - 2015.04.14 07:27:03 - [31] - Quote The docking/undocking could be played out in the background as you're allowed to do your normal things. Much as there's motion already going on in-station. The older 'Quafe Station/Pleasure Station' was a very good example. There was a lot going on in the background as you did your normal activities.

Welcome to General Discussion. I think the only reason CCP hasn't elaborated on general media, cut scenes, is because they have higher priorities (fixing a game that they already broke). Once upon a time the Golem had a Raven hull and it looked good. Then it transformed into a plataduck. The end.
