Not sure if it's viable or useful, but wouldn't it be nice to have a ****pit view to tie in with ambulation and some tweaked controls to go along with it.

Sigh.
You're piloting your ship from a goo-filled pod. Not a co ckpit

Its not pedantry, its how the game is. It would be ******ed to have a ****pit view, because the ships dont have ****pits. We have pods instead. Would be completely incongruous with ambulation and the atmosphere of eve. _______________________________________________ Mercenary Forces |

Read the above stories, and then continue this discussion.
What you're seeing IS the "c0-ckpit" view. Your character is immersed in a sensory deprivation chamber filled with neutrient goo... picture The Matrix.
What you're seeing when you zoom in and out, and pan around your ship, is the video feed from the drones that supply info to the pilot within.
Then when the pilot thinks to himself "I want to kill THAT guy", the ship locks on and starts firing. --- Don't take my ranting personally. I may just be arguing the topic, unless you're saying something stupid, and then I mean every word. "Players don't want Variety. They want THE BEST" |

You call it fluff I call it immersion, thanks Gideon for at least adding something to the discussion instead of just base eve-o trolling.

Well, to be fair, this is something virtually everyone knows...

Do ships even have coc-pits? I can't imagine anything bigger than a fighter having a coc-pit.
CCP, please fix the word filter.  Penchance: CEO and great perish of battleships |

Well I just used the word coc-pit to get my point across, I could have easily said out of pod view or something along those lines.

Edited by: los ojos on 13/08/2008 20:08:09 Sorry . . .
Perhaps I should have included a smiley icon.
To me, "fluff" isn't an insult . . .
fluff=backstory=immersion=whatever else that provides answers to questions like: "Why do we have a third person view of our ships?"
I was implying that this "camera drones" story actually taught me something new.

Edited by: los ojos on 13/08/2008 20:12:57 Ah . . . forgot to mention . . .
As cool as a coc . . . er . . . um . . . the view you are talking about might be, I don't think it would be all that useful. Because of turrets that track targets in EVE, I am rarely looking towards the front of my ship . . . at least during the exiting moments anyway . . .
Now, on the other hand, if you were implying you'd like an inside view of your ship looking out through the view screen/goo/windshield/whatever like via Star Trek or something . . . then it might be nifty, and as far as I know that sort of thing is planned for Ambulation.

Sure something along those lines I don't think it would be a huge implementation and might add a nice touch though not necessarily for combat.

As a few posts have stated, and as detailed in the "Camera Drones" chronicle, you are immersed in your sensory-deprived pod when piloting your ship. The view you have is from your camera drones.
Why do you think the screen goes black while you undock/dock (temporary interruption of transmission), and why you don't actually "see" yourself jumping when you use a stargate? (interference). Obviously the interference is not as bad when warping, as you camera drones still work then.
Nice idea, but there aren't actually any co... those places, in EVE to have a view from.

Given that even frigates are dozens of meters long (up to battleships, which are hundreds of meters long), you're not looking at ****pits anyway, you're thinking of a bridge, and it's still wrong.

The fact CCP have said we'll be walking gives us a right have a c-pit as well. If not then I DEMAND when you leave your ship to walk on the station you are coved with goo that drips off you for five minutes
