Only with the condition that the invulnerability timer be completely removed (but not the redock timer).

How did you Veterans start?

Who needs windows? You have your awesome 200" screen in your CQ. Get a view of the station outside there, as well as a dscan result for the full range. Meaningful CQ? Yay!

If you hate CQ, where do you want to have the window then? A screen floating around in your hangar view?

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

Dumb player is dumb. You are invulnerable for 20 seconds when you undock, that is your "window".

Its 20 seconds or until you send a single command to the server, whichever is the greater. It's not much of a window is it?

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...

30 seconds or upon activation of any module or course change (setting speed to 0 m/sec doesn't count). That's enough time to...

- see what's outside waiting for you...
- run a 360 degree D-scan at max range to see if there might be things waiting nearby...
- see if any celestials are in-line with your undock trajectory...
- warp to an "insta-undock" that you bookmarked ahead of time.


And yes... I've played a lot of docking games (both ways) to know this by heart.
