Player Features and Ideas Discussion

hey CCP; Have you ever thought to create a hallway on the other side of the station quarters closed door and create a vending type machine in it that a player can purchase the clothing, ship skins, etc. from?? just had this thought and hope you might be able to use it on down the line.

Better idea.

If they have no intention of adding anything remove the damn door that serves as nothing but a reminder as to why I biomassed my original toons

You'll notice that the walk-in-station feature has not been implemented in citadels. Dead feature is dead, don't expect any more updates or additions to it.

I am one of the 5 people that think WiS should be expanded, but really no one except parts of the RP community want it. Maybe CCP will do more when Legion is launched? I wouldn't your hopes up.

I remember way back in the day 4 mos ago when I was a new player (yes that's sarcasm for the humor impaired ppl)-- the game was cool off the bat but very isolated. I was almost surprised I couldnt walk through the station door and hang out w the other char's in station ala swtor. Even if there is nothing major to do there, just hanging out and seeing the other toons would add a whole new dimension to the game. They already have chars built, why not walk them around together? And its not just rp-- if your not rp'ing in a ship you wont do it in station.

We can all pre-read the standard bittervet responses eg: thats not eve, go play a different game, yada yada. Of course I understand the real action and social happens in space/ fleets and this would do nothing to diminish that, just a casual perhaps entertaining hang area. It couldnt hurt, especially for new or transitioning players. The limfac of course would be server and programming.

CCP opend the pandora's Box when they annonunced WiS.... after that, they tried to Close that Box, but they never did... the troll is out of the Box and players will nag and ask about it for years to come.

Accept it, players want it, even tho its Space sims in station that the gankers hate... (yes, most players are gankers :D)

I can imagine that a "relaunch" of WiS in it's current form is not possible without a huge effort in money and time.

"WiS" was built with a self-made Engine they wanted to use for "World of Darkness" and "Walking in Stations". With such an "exotic" System, you can't just hire experienced programmers for it on the job market like you could if you just had licensed a variation of the Unreal or Cryengine. So i doupt that there are many developers left in CCP that can do much more than design some Vanity items in a editor with it.

That door goes to the rest of the station? I thought it went to the bathroom. I've been standing in front of that door for several years waiting to... you know.... poop.


What kind of a captains quarters doesn't have a bathroom.


PROTIP: I've given you an out CCP. Put a bathroom on the other side of that door, add some spacey flushy noises and everyone will be happy! (you're welcome).
