They don,t even care what you think You do realise that CCP has basically iced the WiS project because of the amount of people who cried about them spending time on something that wasn't space ships... People are still crying because of work on DUST and WoD. I think they forget that CCP is a business, not their own personal toy. Put all your eggs in one basket, ie have a single product, and if the demand falls, so do you. Diversity in the consumer base breeds both stability and profit. Two things every business needs.
And look, everyone was complaining they should have spent their time on fixing stuff like ships, not WiS... Guess what. They are. MODULAR DRONES

WiS would be another element to a huge sandbox. Putting it in another client or platform would just not suit the criteria of the principle.
WiS should allow a capsuleer to get out of his pod and relax. It should allow for new and interesting gameplay, (that while being fun should not be mandatory or give direct benefits to FiS activities.)
It should not be 'Sims in space'. What it should be is a way for those of us who want to immerse ourselves in the deep and rich lore of the game to explore it further. I want to see various types of social activities become available in WiS. The three main things I want to see are: Player owned casino's - there are various betting sites that are available like EOH, blink and EvE-bet, so give them the ability to purchase rights to own their own chain of in game casino's!
Black Markets - if it is illegal in an area of space, take it off the general market which can only be accessed through WiS. You have to go and see the fence in person.
And last, but by no means least... Sports - particularly violent sports or even illegal blood sports. It's one thing to bet on the outcome of a few dust mercs taking part in a small scale fight. It's another to put your isk on a Gladiatorial battle.between capsuleers who have created specialised clones for the job. Especially if you can watch it live. I also would love to see some sort of sport inspired by American Football, Jugger (google the film 'Blood of Heroes') and Rollerball. Yes, it has nothing to do with FiS, but how cool would it be to be able to purchase clothing for your preferred team, then spot the star player out in a ship. Maybe you want his corpse for your ice box too... MODULAR DRONES

WIS need indeed some gameplay and bc Ghazu wants emoting so bad i am sure they could put that in ,just for him Don't misunderstand me, if there ends up being some sort of emote/dance implant, then I want an implant that lets me smuggle a bomb in my clone so i can detonate it next to the bastards i see using them.

I am not wanting a only emote game either ,but some people think WIS lovers only want that. there has to be a reason to get out the pod and walk through that now welded shut door Best reason I can think of is "Who the hell would want to live in green goop, in semi-stasis, being fed mineral snit for the rest of their loves?"

oldbutfeelingyoung wrote:the ones that think emoting would be the end of the world and space-barbies are big scary monsters and are overpowered and need to be rebalanced and nerfed So don't partake of WiS. No one will force you. Realistically, its more of a RP thing anyway. I couldn't give 2 ***** about remotes or dancing, but there are other things I would like to do to immerse myself in the lore the game is based around.
Spaceships are a big part of EvE, but for many of us, they aren't the only thing. MODULAR DRONES

There are a few things I would like to see in the captains quarters that I think would benefit both players and CCP.
1. Community created customised content (clothing, hair, furniture - that kind of thing)
Look at Team Fortress 2 - generating millions of dollars for valve just from community created stuff (and some TF2 community members are making small fortunes themselves.) Eve has one of the best character creators I've ever used in a game, but there is a serious lack of choice in clothing even with the Noble options. Currently the CQ looks like "my first apartment, by IKEA" imo, and I doubt that CCP are capable of getting away from that look without investing a great deal of man hours on assets that have little to do with the Eve experience.
2. Trophys/Trophy Wall
I just better say here my initial thinking behind this idea was to get stuff "out of game." I know a few collectors in Eve - I have a some things I'll never sell in station warehouses myself gathering dust. What I'm thinking of is like a browsable sticker album with slots for one of each item in the game - put something in the book it comes out of game for good. Give the book an API key and then players can allow others to browse their collections on social networking sites. I would also add a counter for who got an item in their collection first e.g. 'playername' was 30th to put 'item' in their collection to add a bit of competition.
I'm thinking along similar lines for PvP trophies. I'm still thinking along the lines of a browsable book, but this book goes on killmails with slots for dropped loot. Players could chose any kills and have them displayed as a trophy in some way within the CQ (I was also thinking of allowing the trophies to be modified to allow for an achievement system like steam uses so individual trophies get cooler in appearance as higher targets are reached.) Community created clothing, or even corporate uniforms, would be awesome.
The trophy room got me thinking, what if you could link it in your bio, a long list of all the corpses you possess...
Also, I know many have no interest in WiS, but there are also many who do. Charge rental fees for CQ extensions that allow more options. You can do the same for corp quarters, an add-on for the office. In one stroke you can add another isk sink to counter inflation and give RPers and WiS enthusiasts what they want. MODULAR DRONES

Not in capsule fitted ships anyway. As for the backstory, those are ordinary ships which are piloted by cockpit/bridge and have crew. It's for an NPC ships. The capsuleer ships, hovever, have the capsule hardware. But the bridge itself is still there (the windows and the bridge are easily seen on some ship's models) and there is no reason why can't we get out of the capsule and use it. We can also be cloned in this cabe because of DUST technology... Noobs :) That's quite funny.
So, who is piloting the ship, which is co.troled exclusively from your pod, while your not in it? Not to mention that when a breach of the pod is detected, the clone transfer process activates. MODULAR DRONES
