Following from the 2013 fanfest presentation & demo, many issues have been thrown up by this.

Is EVE point and click game style compatible with virtual reality, or does it have to be a stand alone game?
Is VR more suited to dust fps?
Do we need VR to really see what is behind the door?
Will it open up new dimensions in space exploration?
Will VR be the future of immersive gaming and if EVE does not do it others will?

discuss & troll...

I thought EVR was pretty specifically fighter combat? Not the actual EVE gameplay at all...

Oh please please please find a way to make this EVR dogfight sim playable with EVE. You have the point and click tactics of EVE combining with the FPS lovers. Bring in the flight sim crowd. Also i want my joystick controlled frig plese, just for the *****, when you have some time.

But that would involve a complete rewrite of the entire game to do away with that pesky 1 second server tick, and the corresponding huge spike in bandwidth used...
