Player Features and Ideas Discussion

So, seems it's my turn to talk ...

much ideas have been named in the postings before ... I think, I repeat a lot of wishes, but hey, maybe CCP will hear ... (btw, I gave my "like" for every idea I identify myself)

1st: We need some benefit to use CQ! Now, it is a nice gadget, and I use it to have some feeling of "I am a demigod and not a ship". But then ... there's no practical need to use it. Change this ! Please read on.

Some ideas:

CI - corporate identity: Give us the possibility to create and use some kind of corporation tags, which all corp-members can wear on their clothes. Maybe on the shoulder, chest, or as patch on the back, as tattoo ... or something more creepy!

Planetary interaction: Enhance the screen with status-informations ... Red warnings if something goes wrong, like extractors idle, factories out of suppy and so on.

Station view: I've read about the idea of setting up a station-cam on a screen ... that would be really nice ... but: no pilot or corporation tags ... just the ships before the station. Stationcampers could be seen but not identified (countermeasure: covert-ops).

CQ-customization: Let us change the information on the videoscreens, give us options to change the view of our CQ, other interior, some light-modifications. Maybe bigger rooms for ISK ...

CEO and directors: They should get a meeting-room for corp-meetings. Plus some special features, like holographic meetings, enhanced corp-tools (like cost-income calculations and others). This could be connected to corp-office-stations, we pay a monthly rent, this could be the benefit for it.

Personnel: You gave me a present : a "little helper, female" ... I really was excited! Was this AT LAST something for my CQ? But no ... just another "icon" in my inventory. It was a big disappointment for me. We can "loot" janitors, exotic dancers, little helpers and so on ... I was thinking about some sort of "fitting" for the CQ ... maybe put 2 or more servants into the CQ. They have to have their own room ... maybe a monthly ISK-rent or else ... just some kind of life in the room.

Establishments: 1st step: Give us a lounge where we can meet, a few small games (I did see the teaser-vids - you have some stuff !! :) ) and a face to face to my agent ... or with holographic projection ...

Well, maybe it's a bit more difficult. But anyway, i think it's an obvious continuation of the stations idea - ships, POSes and other structures, or even players. When... IF WiS will be done, it'll be much easier to add new environments.

When you mine i find it a little inefficient and unreal that the amount of ore doesnt have anything to do with th the size of the asteroid.. i mean i look at this HUGE one.. and find only 64 ore in it..why not scale in size as you mine?

And why do a mining laser have to complete a cycle before you realize there was only 30 ore left?
why not have it update per sec so it just stops when there is no more ore? sure you still have the cycle.. but you get ore per sec..
like this - The laser have a cucle of 3 min = 180 sec and mines 1294 m3 per cycle = around 7,19 m3 per sec.

and with an update every sec that would make the asteroid shrink in size as you mine and a "fluid" income of ore per sec..

makes it seem more "real.."

- i just want to meet friends in a station lounge.. or an arpartment would be cool..

Lore 101: as a capsuleer aboard your ship, you're naked, floating inside a pod filled with nanite goo and wired to your ship via several plugs on your spine. The pod allows you to control your ship and survive if it is destroyed, and in the event that your pod is lost too, it will euthanase you while it transfers your consciousness to a mindless clone of your body.

Capsuleers won't leave their pod in space. Maybe you heard that there was a prototype that involved capsuleers leaving their pod and venture into delerict stations to explore them on foot, but that was shelved before even was clear wether it was actual capsuleers or something else who interacted with the dungeon crawling WiS prototype.

They could make a chronicle out of a pod pilot, who chose to command at the bridge with his crew instead of from the pod, and he perma-died because cloning don't work if you are out of pod when the ship is destroyed.

Cloning has nothing to do with your pod, even traditionally. It was the instantaneous transfer of your consciousness over long distances to your new clone that required the tech in your pod.

Now, even that is not an issue in DUST... which is part of the EvE universe.

doesnt look like anyone is reading this, but it only takes me a moment to write this.

advertising. let players advertise their services somewhere in game.

whether you guys take 25mb files that are briefly audited or just anything to be played in CQ, or pictures for billboards in space. anything. it'll bring the world more together. make services more accessible.

that and let us have physical offices on WiS

I thought the transfer of consciousness required some equipment, which are housed in the pod. Like you need a sensor thing to first "flash" the brain, then an big transmitter powerful enough to burst that signal package whatever over to your med facility 50 jumps away?
DUST soldiers can do it from their head without the pod because their brains don't need to hold the massive amounts of SPs of pod pilots, because there isn't much to shooting small arms vs ships & weapons.

My toon want toilets in his CQs !!

He wants "the" door to get opened (with code of course) and get to the bar have a drink with a cute Minmatar ebony or a sweet Caldari blonde.

Make it happen !
