The golden pod doesn't show up in the captains quarters view. It's still commoner-green.

Probably something that needs to get fixed ASAP since people are starting to receive their collector editions now.

The pod in CQ is not a separate item. It's going to remain green.

Blame all the raging nerds that shot a monument in Jita. They are the reason we can't have nice things (now).

Or rather, blame the development teams for neglecting EVE's core features and failing to deliver anything substantial regarding avatar gameplay even after demoing a fair amount of content years before Incarna actually released.

The community taking action in response to negligence was a good thing. Furthermore, the avatar content that was previously shown is far from compelling. Now the developers have a unique vision that they can eventually deliver on.

As far as the golden capsule is concerned, its absence in the captain's quarters is an extremely benign issue. The CQ provides no content other than simply being a tech demo. Perhaps, when avatar gameplay is revisited, the developers will care enough to actually do something about it. As it stands, this "issue" is largely unimportant to the main set of content that EVE currently features.

I'm afraid this is by design, the Capsule in Captains Quarters is a separate asset that wont be updated.

That's disappointing.

Nice to see that CCP is still perfectly capable of only doing half a job.

Then i fear i'm never going to see my Golden pod, I don't pod around anywhere and i rarely sit in station in my pod,

Surely this isn't a big implementation task,

As far as I'm concerned. CCP sold the collectors edition with a "Golden Pod" .. not "A golden pod that is only viewable in space"

Link to CSM thread

Feel free to visit the thread above and help bring this to the CSMs attention.

Personally I think it's not an unrealistic expectation. We paid for it after all.

The Question is why? Lazy, or you guys hate WiS...

Now I understand why there are no 'dis-like' buttons to this forum. Ugh

Why is this? Not enough men power? WIS code has been frozen and can no longer be updated?
What!?

Why wont it be updated?
You shipped incomplete stuff, fix it.

Very bad design then. If you've totally abandoned CQ then at least stop releasing the sleeve tattoos and the golden pods because it's rather immersion breaking to have the same thing appear as different stuff depending on whether you're in cq or in space.
This is my signature. There are many others like it, but this one is mine.  Without me, my signature is useless. Without my signature, I am useless

Seems to come with a general lack of concern from the devs for CQ and WiS after the outlash following Incarna, focus just seems elsewhere.

Yet, with enough support, I'm sure players can get them to care more about CQ and WiS again.

We have a topic going in the ideas section of the forums about this, located here.

I would say the resources to "fix" this issue should be granted, considering its... really just a tint skin that needs to be added.

This should not be a slap in the face, it should just be added to Rubicon release.

It is one of those immerse items people like, especially considering the people who spent, what is a collector's edition cost, over 150 DOLLARS?

I think you can have two of your art designer guys, one of your graphic artists, and one coder to spend 1 day to add the resource into the game, especially considering the amount of money these people spent in real life to support the product. I know there busy, but this oversight should not be left as is.

Yaay!!!!

Why would CCP fix it? They already have our money Evil

Happy customers get you even more money.

I guess the primary issue here isn't the coloring, but it will require additional shading as well - and that might not look that good based on environment, lightning, etc.
