i agree i'd like to see hubs like amarr and especially jita have the stations more unique. 3 or 4 times the size of regular stations, real galactic hubs buzzing with trade and life. Would be awesome.

Indeed.

The occasional ship flying through your area of the hanger, either past you or above/below you.

While I'd love to see the ships in the back ground actually be representative of the ships that are actually docking and undocking that may be a bit of an unrealistic expectation.

I would love for the trade convoys to actually behave in a realistic manner, complete with escort, and actually leave system to travel to other stations. Once there, their goods sold could actually impact the market (and of course if they didn't make it would be some decent loot for those that don't mind losing standing with that corp).

Lots of ships coming and going all the time.

Took me a while to make the difference between the charon and the background. EVE ingame graphics is so outdated and the station itself is extremely ugly, no matter the faction. When I dock, I open the market, browser and cargo just to cover that ugly station enviro that makes me feel like being in a trash can. There is a huge difference between the epic EVE cinematics and ingame graphics, luck that for many of us the gameplay is much more attractive and important.

Shouldn't you be able to see the empty "pod rack" and balcony from the hangar view?

Since CCP is so into tying things together I think that would be something interesting to see

Not a diplo.

BTW even in CQ mode, if you walk out to the balcony you can see a sliver of the flight way and the traffic.

It's not actually unrealistic.
It's being done with the background noise in stations already. (try it with a friend)

Nobody says that player-ships have to sit next to you.
They could just all be "at a different spot" in the station and when they undock,
one sees them fly by in the distance. Of course, timing is way off,
but that wouldn't actually matter that much anyway.

Only thing i could see people whine about is "free intel" ...

It looks so... empty. Why aren't there huge animated ads all over the place? At least throw in the billboards from the gates, and maybe a large screen showing news, market tickers etc. Basically the screen from the CQ, but in the hangar.
And more stuff moving around. My ship should be crawling with maintenance bots and guys with paint buckets. And Scotty should be there, nervously chain smoking and freaking out over everything.

Well, this confirms that CCP has either a) no sense of scale or b) decided to increase station size to something more in keeping with their capacity.


I really would like to see massive stations that actually look as big on the outside as they do on the inside.


Dont mess with my TARDIS style stations!

Then I want a station that looks like a porta-potty. Big smile

According to the Dev's there are still a lot of details missing.

We should of had this 2-3 years ago...

Check this vid;

Those assets were used on EvETV during the Alliance tourney...

Idea

The Caldari interior needs to be darker! Do it like you did it in the render CCP!!

Really like this change. Sadly not much to see from the ship traffic in CQ mode Sad . And some pipes on the balcony edge (gallente) look out of place (a bit too bright).

Agreed. That video displays a pretty atmospheric hangar! I'm not sure why there's so much white fog in the station interiors as they are. It would be nice if EVE's lighting was better overall.
