Although im sure CCP did this for a reason. I imagine it was some kind of code/performance issue. If they can find a way to bring them back without interfering with whatever they had to change it for in the first place then all the better.
I was about to open a new thread but the Search engine came up with this one, and it's actual enough.
Was it ever discussed by CCP? Do we know why on Earth they turned precious corpses into worthless items? I don't think that corpse names should be to stressing for the system, seeing as ships get named and renamed by thousands every day without CCP doing anything about it.
I only discovered this yesterday, after taking the body of a clumsy moron that never stops babbling in Local...only to find out I can't link him HIS corpse.
Also, my collection of corpses in Jita is now worth zero. Some of them were acquired after good fights and there were anecdotes related to many of them.
ALL THOSE MOMENTS WILL BE LOST, LIKE TEARS IN RAIN, FFS CCP! |

Now I just have a hangar full of nameless corpses. This isn't the holocaust. They must be remembered for who they were [while I touch them] for their family's sake!
Could you imagine what the famous Guiding Hand Social Club heist would have been without a named corpse to tell the tale?
Did CCP realize that AMAZING player-driven storytelling has been completely annihilated by this?
No more paying/getting money for hits with the named corpse as the proof. KMs aren't the same as delivering THE BODY!
No more corpse collecting to remember your epic battles.
No more stories like that Capsuleer Space Graveyard.
No more knowing you have the real, ultimate proof of your ENEMY's demise on your cargo/station after a good, dirty fight.
No more trading of named corpses. There was a real market for this, with famous capsuleers being worth more than commoners.
At the very least, I would like to hear a convincing explanation from CCP. I don't doubt it's justified (although CCP does fix what is not broken, occasionally), but so far I haven't heard or read WHY.
This just made EvE a little bit less interesting and a little bit more bland. |

I would like to mention how HAPPY I am, now that corpses retain (again) the name of the soul formerly dwelling inside.
Not only that: the nameless corpses have regained their original identities.
Hooray for stored, labelled and now IDENTIFIED virtual corpses. |
