Adjustable light levels?
Corp banner on the wall?
RGB sliders for ambient light levels and adjusting the colour scheme?
As per "jita-cam", a live feed of an external view would be great...
Interactive screens, I.e. have the browser appear on the monitor or as a popup.
Links to external content (would be great to sit on the sofa watching clear skies :) ),
Interactive market ticker (links to eve-central/eve-markets etc.) taking advantage of community content.
Surely as we can communicate across the entire universe, can we get market data from other regions displayed? It would be useful for industrialists to check prices across regios and would give them a reason to be in CQ (as a massive station surely would have better comms than a ship). Hell, even if we just have a top 10 of shifting market trends or the ability from the existing market data to plot the current graphs on a screen.
Market data showing current open buy and sell orders.
Contract overview screen.
Picking up on another idea in this thread, the next Update I'd love to see is a revamp of the hangar. Rather than just having the spin-able ship, add to this (with the option to turn it off of course for the die-hard FiS fans) a series of gantrys, animations and suchlike for loading and unloading cargo, fuel, weapons, fitting crews etc.
Yes it doesn't add gameplay but it does add immersion.
How about seeing other ships? Rather than having the massive empty hangar, why not also show off in the distance on the left and right the ship of the person preceding and following you alphabetically in the guests list? Or if you have corp mates docked, then their ships (in a limited way to save on CPU) are shown? (this could be used in CQ or hangar mode).
Interactive 3d map. Again, I'm sure I remember something from clear skies where the map is a holographic projection in the room.
The battle game and poker consoles seen in test/dev. Ok, so we can't currently sit around them as a group, but I'm more than happy to have a console to interact with other players remotely... Setup Local gambling on a station per station basis. Maybe all the high rollers will congregate in some backwater out of the way system or all end up at Jita.
Personal hangar. Where are my other ships? Where are they stored? I want to see my naglfar parked alongside my drake, vargur or probe :). Yes, it doesn't add gameplay but adds further immersion.
How about the item hangar? Why can't I go down there to gaze at the magnificence that is a massive pile of tritanium boxes? :).
The activities we do in cq will have to be broken down into social, economic and warfare and possibly some will blend together. The normal activities we all currently do in a station must be achievable through the current neocom interface and we should not have to use CQ to do them. The CQ content and interface must be supplemental to the neocom and key functionality must not be exclusively performed through it.
