Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Please listen carefully I am in absolute love with EVE. If the developers stopped all progress on the game right this minute I will continue to subscribe and play. It is by far the closest example of what a sandbox space game should be.

Now brown nosing complete. Why is there no ship appearance customization? I love the way strategic cruisers appearances change with the different sub systems. I am not asking for every ship to have a different sub system like the SC I just think it would be cool to put my corp's logo or just change the color a little. No need to super huge textural changes no need to add damage sections or anything just maybe a tri color scheme that was changeable.

I mean you can spend hours in character creation and barely see your character. But your ship which you see all the time has nothing but slightly different modules.

Being able to have a corporate color scheme would allow for instant corp recognition and actually give you a better reason to use the look at function.

(Bare with me) Star Trek Online did customization very well. In fact I believe that was the only thing that was done really well by the game. Every time people talk about EVE some one mentions the core concept about the game that it is all about "Ships In Space".

I just want the ships appearance to get the same love as the character creation. Besides to make walk in station is only useful if you are in a station. If you are in astiaon all the time you are missing out on 99.9999999% of what make

Because secretly you know, instead of the corp logo you talk about. You would place a picture of Captain Jean Luc Picard on your ship.

Thanks that;s awesome is there a dev report talking about this I couldn't find one when I was searching this topic.

Extremely helpful Mfume this was what I was looking for. And I can't wait for them to put this in the game.

^ Oh the cybering you will have, the cybering you will have. Making me jealous.

Engage!

OP, i guess you can see now why CCP have had to be very careful with how much customization that the players have access to. Its hard to advertise as a dark, gritty, dangerous univers with immature player flying around in gian pink thoraxes aor pasting stupid crap all over their ships.

This; there was talk about how CCP does not want to allow any kind of design/color scheme that breaks immersion/doesn't fit the art style of the game.
