The Trivenerate

Seriously, I logged in (admittedly after a brief hiatus) and flew around to pick up some loose ends and I'm docking at a station thinking, 'my god this doesn't look right'... ironic because it actually seemed to scale. I didn't notice anything in the patch notes or dev blog...
Am I losing my mind???? (beyond Oldtimers Disease...)

I believe the size of stations was increased when Trinity went live.

They're large in both Trinity and Classic mode.

And yet they still don't look big enough. Can't wait for 3D TVs to fix this one, scale is a ***** in space. |

You are aware that they distances we're talking about here are in fact so large that you would probably be unable to tell that it was 3D (because the divergence between images of the right and left eye is too small to be noticed at such distances)? |

The scale on most things is pretty well done, its the FOV that makes things look small.
Try holding down both right and left mouse buttons while holding alt and moving the mouse left or right. Zoom almost all the way in and release, then pan around. Big things look much bigger now, but you cant see anything because they fill the screen.
Some things are still too small though, like an Iteron V and some carriers that are barely bigger than some battleships. |

Stations still aren't big enough, or station interiors need to be a lot more crowded - pick one, either one will do. The view of stations from inside is disproportionately large comapred to the exterior. This is a really common thing with RPGs in general, actually. How often in a generic fantasy RPG do you walk up to a house that is so tiny you can run around the circumference in five seconds, but when you get inside it's an absolute warren's nest with heaps of rooms all far bigger than the exterior of the house suggested?
If the docking area inside a station is really as big as the interior view of the station shows, then the exterior of the station suggests that the station would probably have room to dock only maybe three or four ships absolute maximum!
Planets need to be a lot bigger too, actually. Anyway, maybe in Ambulation they'll fix all this. Maybe the station interior needs to be redesigned so it's a lot more crowded and you can actually see other ships besides yours all lined up and docked. Now that would add an interesting element to the strategy of the game... |

Those stations are SO big that I wonder where on earth they have managed to collect that much raw material to build ALL those stations

Go palm yourself! 
Then how on earth they have had energy AND time AND haulin' capacity to MOVE that RAW material. Remember that stations was there in the begining, WAY BEFORE freighters!

I don't think the stations got bigger since the last patch.
They do look way nicer in the premium client though :) So do the jump gates.
When Ambulations comes out I too would love to be able to see all the other ships that are docked at the station. Would be cool to walk around checking out all the ships from outside. You would get a better feeling about how big these ships are supposed to be. |

Been using premium since its release. I guess after a week, Eve seems bigger. Perhaps my ego merely deflated. |
