Edited by: DarkMatter on 08/03/2007 11:28:25 I have a question for the DEV's no one here has asked yet:
Knowing that you said with the new graphics upgrade, whoever chooses to run the DX10 version will need to redo their avatar. I'm assuming with this, we'll need to do a full body Avatar, clothes and all?
What about the DX9 version that some ppl will still have to use for a few more years? Will that version of the client even run this new feature? Will we have to redo our Avatar's for the DX9 version?
I will say this looks impressive, but from my syandpoint, it better lead to fighting in stations, POS' and on planets & moons someday. It also better not cause any more lag for those of us actually playing the old game, the one out in space... Otherwise it will truly be useless IMO, like the video cut-scenes in the Wing Commander games became after you watched them once...

Originally by: Lictose Oh ye will your in-game char match that of your avatar picture???
When the DX10 client & WIS (Walking in Sations) hits, the DEV's said you will have to redo your Avatar...

Originally by: Ysolde Xen BTW will we all have to redo character creation portraits or can it translate the avatars into full body (with some choices for build maybe)? I'd hate to try and recreate this exact pic again and I quite like it.
I'd imagine we all have to redo our characters...
I would think they would not even allow you to log in until you redo it... They can't have a bunch of blank Avatars walking around. Maybe they will have John Doe's & Jane Doe's until you redo it. Make the John & Jane's so butt ugly that no one wants to leave them that way...
It will probably be disappointing that we won't be able to get our new avatars to look just like our old ones... I'd hate to loose the smirk that my main character has, it's priceless...

I have another question...
How do you RP the POD slime?
You have to take a shower & get dressed every time you leave your pod?
Wouldn't your skin be all nasty & clammy?
I always envisioned your avatar is what you looked like b4 you became a capsuleer. Once you did, all your hair was removed including follicles, and you were placed in your POD never to come out again, and clones were made right in the pods...

Originally by: Vegetto Ichikai Work to do? Pfft, you need to train your skills mate, here's my skill list:
Minimization Excel Launcher Browser Concealment Rapid Type Evasive Conversation Work Projection Boss Cloaking Print Drone Interface Office Trainee Manipulation
Unfortunately my work involves microscopes, thermal cyclers, laminar flow hoods, CO2 cylinders and elecrophoresis systems that don't (mostly) have PC interfaces >_< I like the sound of the Office Trainee Manipulation though... your ideas intrigue me, please send me your brochure, newsletter and/or promotional material.
I'm a structural designer/Technician. If I'm clicking lots on a mouse, it sounds like I'm working hard. Too much typing will surely raise eyebrows though ha. And yes, i wouldn't employ me either...
LOL!
I'm a Mechanical Engineer, when ppl hear me typing so much, it definitely arouses suspicion, lol!

Originally by: Roshan longshot When is this due out? I really need to know so I can cancel my accounts a month before.
This is NOT what I play eve for. I want no part of it, nor will I come back to Eve after it comes out.
Long time I been waiting for just the right thing to make Eve 'unfun' for me...and this is it.
No you cant have my stuff isk or BPO's they all going to my friends.
Have you no clue what "OPTIONAL" means?
You do NOT HAVE TO WALK in stations if you don't want to, you can KEEP PLAYING THE GAME THE SAME WAY you always have...
Some of you need to READ THE ******* DEV BLOGS before you cry...

Quote: Mandatory download also yes
You would quit because it might take a few extra minutes to download?
So what if it took 1 hour to download, WTF does it matter???
Just like EVE Voice, it's OPTIONAL!
At least CCP is giving you an option, and not forcing you to use it like all other MMO's do...
Get a grip man! This will NOT change your gameplay if you CHOOSE not to use it, just like the new Voice system...

The chronicles, short stories and so on have often had capsuleers step out of the pods. Read "Hands of a killer", or "Forsaken Ruins". Even "The Jovian Wetgrave" presented the possibility, though at risk. Presumably, capsule technology has advanced to the point where mindlock just doesn't happen any more, except in a negligibly small percentage of cases.
Thanks, I'll have some reading for my lunch break today!

Originally by: Doppleganger If this adds more whole eve experience then cool but personally I'm not interested in 'Second Life EVE'.
You also fail understand what OPTIONAL means...

Originally by: DarkPanther what a gimmick , wow i can talk around a station , just goes to show how pointless it is if it's optional 
How stupid are you people, I mean really?
You think they would put this in the game if they did not intend to expand on it?
If you can't see what this potentially leads too, then you're very ignorant & shortsighted...

Originally by: Umit Davala I know this will bring the haters down on me like a ton of bricks, but I still dont see the point. Yes, I know it will be optional, but I can see a point at which players will be hindered unless they want to do Second Life: The Space Generation.
Still, looks pretty though 
The point is, it will lead to more immersion, and eventually walking on planets, and the ultimate, PvP'ing while out of your ship.
This is only the very beginning of that...
Does CCP ever release everything new all at once? NO, you guys should know that by now...
They start small & tweak and add and tweak and add, etc...

Originally by: Rodj Blake I really hope that there will be new content as well as new eye-candy.
Things that you can do 1n stations to make money that can't be done in space for example.
Playing in pool/dart tournaments for ISK, poker, it's really endless IMO...
Certain types of new contracts, new missions, etc...

Please say you are joking...
Read This
Socializing in society, however, is very often done around some kind of action, game or activity, that in themselves are perhaps dull or monotonic, but serve as some sort of excuse for people to gather and chat. Bars, for example, are social places for the most part. They often have pool tables and darts andą beer. All tools to break the ice and play around with casually while you mingle with people. We realize that itĘs not enough to just build a 1000 square meter circle inside a station, put everybody there and wait for the party to start. There will be stuff to do inside the station, some of it practical, some of it mundane, and lots of it will tie into the roleplaying backstory of the game.

Quote: why fight inside of stations when one can just blow them up with huge ships ?
Maybe because you can't blow up outposts, only bring the shields down...
Makes perfect sense that after you take down the shields to send in a boarding party and actually take the station from its inhabitants...
Yes, some of you lack imagination...
Honestly, some of you should just license a copy of EVE as it was at relase and run your own server, never changing the game, stuck in the past
