The best part about it is having a nicer place to train skills.

Intense skill training is what most accounts are doing anyway

Just being able to show off my space barbie would be enough, but having a place to meet other players "face to face" in a bar or something with some half-naked dancers and e-alcohol would be fun.

"new" gameplay elements implies that there are existing gameplay elements.

10 ISK says that theres a secret door in the CQ that leads to some form of WoD content in a future expansion.



Peon > Sir, I don't think that space stations and back alley vampire content mix..

Evil CEO > BAH! We spent 15 million to develop it, just throw it in there, Im tired of hearing "Make more WiS content myyyaaaaahhhhh". plus those ***** ate up that Incarna NeX crap we threw at them, and those were all leftovers from THAT fiasco, so their used to buying up recycled crap. Just put some kind of secret key thingy in some kind of "limited" edition something or other and sell it for 120 USD, this way we can recoup some of our loss.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Until CODE. members block the corridor and make you pay 10mil ISK to get back to your ship.

After a few months of forum whining, CCP will release a statement claiming they do not support such actions but the mechanics are working as intended.

I 100% agree.

We need a new gameplay element for our CQ.

I demand Prostitutes and Exotic Dancers (and/or Groups of Exotic Dancers)!!!

CCP DOES have the technology.

See some of their WiS videos for proof!

All I want is the ability to look out the station window and see who is camping the dock exits without using an alt.

I wonder if anyone's ever left EVE running because they thought that you had to be online to train skills, and got upset because of downtime.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

CQ needs a skill table to sit at and play Russian Roulette on, solo.

What it needs... err... needed, since it won't ever happen now, was gambling built into the game.

If it was possible to some how customize the captain's quarters, or purchase (or manufacture) trophies or other miniatures to put in there, I could get behind that. I'm thinking of the Mass Effect Captain's quarters for example. Purchasing certain items, while not really adding much to the game play, added a lot of flair.

Inviting others in to your quarters would of course be cool as well. I'm sure there's more RP oriented groups that would be interested in that.

This ...maybe not exactly but some room for discussion here.

I mean 2 corps at war dock in the same station but cant engage inside? really?

Just imagine a new gameplay element here...

War target docks in an NPC station.

IF a corp member has higher standings with the stations corporation (or faction) than the corp they are at war with then, by use of a certain module (expensive and dependent on something ...Concord standings maybe?) they get a chance to use a 'hacking' game to eject a random selection of target pilots from the station (after which normal docking rules and timers apply).

Of course needs polishing to stop people docking and switching to noob ships or pods (quick warp off) but then again maybe the whole standings should be looked at for what we are allowed to do in stations.
Imagine if while at war low standings with the station owner would not let you change ship, or leave ship until station has processed your papers (5 minutes? or enough time to get a hack in).

There may be something in this which would bring standings more to the fore AND help eradicate boring station games.

Post with my main? This is my main - I just overtrain and overplay my alts.

The easiest solution to stop docking games is to make every NPC station spit you out at like 25km but you have be with 500m to dock.

However if there where ever to do WIS, then yeah, something like this would be fun.

I strongly suspect the only hope WiS has, is if someone finds the files for all the old ambulation stuff that got terminated, and inserts it one year when they are running short on content for an expansion.
