Corpse Collecting

I just barely got my first Pod kill today, and hoping to get a corpse out of that destroyed pod there was nothing in the overview about it. I'm not sure if there is an overview setting to see corpses floating in space. I am just curious, how do you collect corpses? Are they profitable or just ornaments to throw into your meat locker?

Everyone just collects them in the hope that one day CCP make a corpse launcher module.

Thanks, I have just barely logged back in and I couldn't find his corp. How long do the corpse survive in space?

unused objects stay in space < 2h

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

I keep corpses in a station container in my home station.

Whenever I lose my ship, I like to look at my collection and it cheers me up to see all the frozen remains of my victims. Some people also buy corpses, but I've never seen the fun in that.

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

No matter how many corpses you collect you will never be as cool as this guy. (cool might not be the right word)

I saw that post, that was....rather creepy, yet (insert complimentary phrase here). I can't think of a good word to describe it.

One of my corpies has taken to leaving the corpses in his pvp ship, I have decided this is a great idea as well.
should the day come we lose said pvp ships our wretched killer will be left with a collection of corpses to sift through in order to get whatever goodies we drop.

An incident similar to this is probably what started my habit. Killed a ship and they dropped like 3 corpses and a cargo container... inside the container: 100+ corpses.

I got hundreds of corpses...

I like them because their lips are so pretty.

the chaos client notes suggest there is corpse reprocessing on the horizones (maybe rubicon?) allowing gathering of implants inside their heads. All corpses pre- this imaginary feature will no doubt have no implants though, as the server does not currently track them as such.
