A while ago this year, there was a bug that removed the colored backgrounds, leaving only black space and starlights everywhere. So many people gasped and wanted more of it before the Dev fixed the bugs and put the nebulous background back up much to the EVE pilots' displeasure.
So, one of the Dev said he will look into having some space out there have just black space with starlights everywhere. Well, it's been quite a few months since that comment and nothing as far as I know, was made out of that remark into EVE reality.
So, I ask again Devs, when will CCP add the black space with starlights again? It garnered such positive reactions when it happened that CCP just can't go wrong if they incorporate it in variety of systems.

Oh black space... I'd love it.
Just an option to turn the backdrops off would be good tbh.

if anything the option to turn off backgrounds except for stars might boost FPS =D

I'd suggest that the deeper you move away from empire space the darker the space gets

Why should there be more nebula clouds in high sec space? Theres nothing in high sec space that makes more nebula clouds than low sec space.
Nebula should be where systems have conditions that causes nebula clouds to happen and most systems doesn't have conditions that causes nebula clouds to form in real life, so to speak.

I will give CCP answer. One time there was a bug that you did not get the 3d image but a frame of all the objects in the game. I loved it but EVE is a graphical game.

Tbh, the only systems that have backgrounds should be landmark systems.
Systems like the ones with landmark beacons in them, and those that belong to cosmos constellations would be sweet. Maybe a few other systems like Amarr, Luminaire, Jita, New Caldari, Pator etc.
It would make sense that people settled around areas with rich natural resources such as gas clouds and harvestable nebulae.
As well as that I'd love to see the "Description" tab get used a lot more with information about landmark planets and systems. This is already done for several regions, but it'd be sweet to see more of eve's history represented in the game.

You do realize that there are such things as "subtle" via lattea effects (Such as our solar system), right? EVE simply overdone it for the background for sake of on-line gaming eye candy instead of realistic outer space formations where such via lattea effects are more spread out.

I tried to repeat the method I used to disable the backgrounds. You would hit a jumpgate with the starmap open and it would reset your view to normal without the background.
Doesn't work anymore. :(

Honestly, just an option to disable the backgrounds would be splendid, and I suspect, wouldn't requite 50 man hours to implement.

I would like to see it as an option. I find the backgrounds very distractive and makes it difficult to see if my turrets r activated of not. I find myself having to turn my view to the blackest part of space to visualize my controls while in battle. Very annoying.

Jita should look like L.A. Nebula so thick you can cut it with a laser. Suicide gankers would have a hard time killing freighters cause they simply can't see them. They should also add in some busy traffic sound effects and random profanity.
Yeah it does suck sometimes when you have to change your view to see whats active and whats not or what your opponents shield/armor status is at.

Yeah I must admit some systems gas clouds make me blind there so bright I purposely dont point the camera at them. Some systems should definatly be just black space (which is what most of space is). It would be a cool feature to see the nebula your about to enter with the next jump in the far distance. Would also be cool to have rouge comets that have a route spanning the entire EVE galaxy or supersize rouge asteroids that orbit a system.
Other things that would be neat to see are: blackholes, wormholes, stella nurseries and pulsars.
Would like to see random star birth in stella nurseris nebulas throughout the galaxy where new star systems are randomly created but not to often. The death of a star would also be a cool feature to have and could be a rare event, this could either be a supernova with everything in that system destroyed including the jumpgate. The death of a star does not have to be catastrophic it could just diminish into a neutron star and the system would become a very dark place but would still be accessable. These high risk unstable dieing star systems would be very profitable and how cool would it be to be in the system when it goes nova.
anyway I went on a bit, this is all off the top of my head.

Yes they do plan on updating space in the near future as part of the trinity graphics upgrades. I too hope they put in some "deep space".

wouldn't be much darker. there are still stars further out, just no solar systems that are linked with the gate-network, or are just not very interesting.

Not a minor thing, IMO. Blinking and shimmering stars give the sense of flying through atmosphere. The nebula 'clouds' only add to that impression. In all very immersion breaking.

While you're at it, how about some nebulae that are actual size, that is, being throughout the whole system?
I just pondered a fleet fight in a giant gas cloud; the coolness of it actually made me lightheaded.

While we're at it, I suppose we should get rid of all sound effects, too, since there is no sound in space? If it's ultra-realism you are looking for, space would be a pretty boring place. I'm sure the EVE developers realize that the atmosphere makes stars twinkle. But they're also smart enough to realize that most people spend their entire lives on the planet Earth and therefore are more apt to believe a star is really a star if it twinkles. Static stars would be way more immersion breaking.

This.
Second... and as someone else mentioned, stars (with the exception of pulsars, quasars) wouldn't twinkle in space... I, personally, would love to have some black space :)
