UI: EVE Online Character Selection Screen Concept

I think CCP should develop a better character select screen. I spent a few minutes putting together a concept. This what ever player sees when they login and decide to play or train. Perhaps improving it will lead to more playing.

hmm, looks interesting, rather then the boring pre-incarna character selection. somewhat gives eve a 'new and improved' look and feel

also like the ship behind the character (im assuming that's the ship their supposed to be in at the time?)

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

Yeah I figured that's what the game is about right? ...so there needs to be our ship on the select screen. I see that is missing from the video linked.

Hey and this is something I did in the 20mins waiting for my Pulse lvl 4 to finish so I could do Medium Pulse. You would think some artist programmer dream team could do this in 4 hours? 2 hours in test? 2 hours of revisions? Blaam 1 day results! Dust is soaking up all the good help but the cash cow needs some love.

your first problem here, is assuming anything gets done in a timely manner at CCP, dont get me wrong, they work hard when they can, but they have so many bottlenecks, its ridiculous.

art team for example, Yes, they COULD gett his doen in 4 hours if they drank some energy drinks, and really got into it, but at the same time, 4 hours would likley leave it half-assed, nagging from other departments wanting THEIR projects worked on would also slow them down. lets not forget they have like 14 months of projects promised on already.

and as far as testing goes, nothing EVER works right if given 2-6 hours of testing, things like that are how we get games like skyrim and etc.

i know you were KINDA exaggerating, but just felt i should point it out.
