Not sure if this has already been said (30+ pages...)

Could we not have a screen that shows a pilot what is in the station grid. Kind of like you undocked but you didn't.

Ideally it needs a roster of ships like your overview as well as view.

Wow! Way to stereotype everyone who is male and plays eve! Because we just are all sex-obsessed monkeys incapable of independent thought.

Post your advanced battleship ideas here!

Not sure if I wrote this before on this thread, but since nothing has been done about it:
Update the news feed on the CQ screenAttention
The items on there are about the previous CSM elections, for crying out loud. Ugh Confusing.

Would love for the ship hangar to show all your ships at once. So you can use your camera to fly around them, like a massive space museum for your ships!

in 2007 i've thought it's a sci-fi simulator, not an "e-sports" game. I'm not a teenager, how would i like it much?

I think that on the table there should be something like a booklet that says mission brief turn up if you have a mission offered/accepted and that if you click it the mission screen comes up (The objectives and so on)

Well ideally eve client should grant automatic login and linking with things like evewiki and evegate.

Then evegate should have a mini-blogger function, basically a link/embed to a personal wiki entry area.

This should be accessible from CQ as Captains Log. Also images from similar corp blog feature would show on the screens.

A lot more functionality could be added over time, especially if CCP would do a small thing. Add "trusted" functionality to some accounts. Not favoritism as such, but to allow functionality that could otherwise be strongly abused. Anyone applying for such access would get banned on any abuse of such features. This could be embedding video functionality in wiki entries, or images or flash function of evegate blog entry etc..

The point being that initially some strict control and consequences might be warranted before letting it loose to playre to player self moderations, and even then some limitations might be needed, like age of character, and only the oldest character on an account to avoid alt abuse etc..

Just a few considerations.. Maybe a little too harsh, but i am sure ccp would find the right balance.

My two cents ...

Small customization options.
- Give us access to a control panel on the wall, and allow us to change the color and temperature of the lights.
- Let us set what the screens focus on. Planetary interaction, corporate wallets, even DUST leaderboards.
- Let us place small objects that cost aurum to get. Decorations only. I have in mind a golden Armageddon on the shelf by the wall. No effect on gameplay, merely for personal decoration.

Let us watch the CCP live streams from in WIS. Probably a more difficult change, but would be a seriously enjoyable addition.

Obviously, give us multiple 'formats' and layouts for each CC. Allow us, when we dock, to either keep the default CC for that race and station, or one of our modified CC's. I think a servant can setup a room for us, considering how much we're worth.

Allow the addition of 'rooms' for further nefarious purposes, such as bedrooms, or trophy rooms, or something to meet in.

Allow multiple players in the same CC. Start small. Limit it to two. Have to be invited. But expand from there.

If you're driven to threaten others with harm or violence because of what they do in game, you can't separate fantasy from reality. That "griefer/thief" is probably more sane than you are. How screwed up is that?

Well there will be a fanfest at the end of this month. I'm waiting for the streams... To see that no one out there not even heard of any WiSes...What?

General idea:

A tag wall for stations where you can leave messages for others. This would be especially usefull and fun and connecting in nullsec outposts where you have communities of multiple alliances but still numbers that wont turn it into a spamfest!

It would differ from local because its inside thestation, you LEAVE messages, and its different from corp / alliance chat because you also message non-allliance / non-corp people with it.

Basically it would add to a sense of community around stations. It would be a bit like a forum or something, but then limited to the station.

Unfortunately, I haven't looked through the all of the previous 30+ pages to see if this was suggested but...

Why not have some sort of comm station making use of a character's social skills ie. connections, security connections, criminal connections, etc. in order to find information on any sort of topic (legal or not; perhaps blackmarket goods) or to find specific people in their current locations... which would define a bounty hunter character's abilities (as opposed to using just agents, which aren't always reliable)

perhaps I dream, but I would love to see jabber integration with the big screen in CQ. Then I could get fleet notifications when I am chilling in my quarters!

Just to mention the "Little helper, female" (check the market!), the few jantors and a bunch of marines, guarding my inventory at station ... Would be nice, to place them in CQ (as I posted before ... think about a "fitting" option ... buy room-upgrades for more personell with ISK or AUR

While running a mission yesterday I was wondering WHY is there not a first person view from my ship?

Or ever a 3rd person view from my bridge....

Can we not use the WIS and make a bridge design (if not for individual ships) for each faction. The video screen can show my external view around me. (hell we could use the current station quarters for now) Add a black bar at the bottom for the combat interface, done deal.

I could see the glorious explosions...without looking at the ship I am flying.

A few DUST marines standing by the view screen...


I believe this could bring around the masses that could give a rats ass about WIS a use for all of this investment.
