Probably never happen, but it will be really cool if that corpse will be based on actual player model. Generate low-poly player model beforehand, apply grayish-dead-skin shader, store it in cache (like T3 ships), use in the moment of death - something like that.
Also model generation procedure can also be used in frozen corpses 3d preview for exciting corpse spinning. Bear


Had similar thoughts myself Pirate

In the last moments of being blown up your ship UI/HUD will look a lot more like it does in the EVE Origins trailer (at 3:23)

Can we get that little orange needle that seemingly does nothing also seen in the trailer added to our overview too? But honestly, I can't wait to see what you guys have come up with! It's very reassuring that CCP not only cares about creating new content, it likes to continually polish the old stuff, too.

Enter grid and you're already dead, destined to be reborn and fight another day.

Wont' be able to participate in the mass test, but I hope to jump on the test server afterwards and have a look at the new effects. So awesome can't wait. The new jump effect is fantastic. I'm sure the ship and pod death effects with be equally spectacular.

As long as the traditional methods of getting your pod out work... this sounds like super duper awesomesauce to me. :thumbsup:

I'm hoping for a V3 of the corpses if we're gonna be looking at them more. They do look a bit sorry in their current state. With a bit of rework they could be truly grotesque!

They won't be changing in Odyssey, but I heard some stories about disgusting bodies in the art department.... let's hope they are working on new corpses for us P

Shocked

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Having met your art department, that isn't what I would think they meant by that. You might want to check for any missing GMs...

To bad you can't use corpses to lower the costs of clones... you know a discount for providing your own biomass.

But any way, may have to take a look at this tonight when I get home..

Perhaps they could just lower the clone costs without requiring you to drag dead bodies around.

These like the gate transitions are excellent apart from a few issues. Disabling the ui during jumps and possibly during podding is incredibly frustrating and immersion breaking. Also zooming and spinning the camera like a lunatic is a bad thing CCP. Will you be fixing these problems?

Dearest space-faring colleagues,

If you thought all the secrets of Odyssey were revealed at Fanfest then it is my pleasure to tell you they were not. Team Pony Express are planning on dropping some seriously exciting changes onto the Singularity Test Server for a Mass Test on Thursday (Watch for posts from CCP Habakuk for exact time + details)

- CCP Masheen. x


Damn! For a moment I thought you were going to say there was going to be a fully functional scanning system like on TQ. Oh well, the eye candy will be nice I suppose.

For a moment I thought you might really surprise the eve community and open the door.

Have we now heard it all, or is there still more to be revealed?
