this is not entirely true.

ATM WiS stations is dead. It not being brought back is a different matter entirely. We do not fully know the complete future plans for New Eden (eve, Legion/dust, valk) WiS revamp could be on that list, all be it low. But it might be there.

Honestly ccp stopped work on it. They had a bad ass project in 07 called Ambulation, which was scrapped for what we have now.

CCP could VERY easily set a few things up, and have AUR sales fund a small dev team to work on WiS. i.e. if players use it, and pay for it by doing space barbie they can spend some time on it. But i don;t think we will see any WiS stuff till at least corp/alliances, pos, sov are fixed, and legion and valk are finished.

And here ladies and gents we have a balanced view point at last. WiS isn't dead, just in stasis.

If people really think EVE can keep growing without proper exploration, planetary flight, avatar gameplay and other such things...

Oh yes, it will still be here in 10 years, but if the space game isn't expanded upon properly it won't be played by many.

If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all...

Come on CCP there is an obvious fix to this.

Make a new game with some really basic content, call it WIS 514, charge 15 bucks a month and collect big bucks from the SL RP crowd.

Yea sooner or later they'll unsub but by then CCP made a profit and no one will ask about WIS again.

That's another way of saying it is dead. There is currently no life in the project, the entire system can't even handle high player amounts in the same space without further development, there is no one working on developing it further and it is in no way included in the long term development plan. CCP can certainly resurrect the project at any time later, but at the moment it's as dead as this dead horse topic is. It only has life in the hearts of people who refuse to look at the facts in the face and admit the truth. From everything we know it is dead and it is going to stay dead for the foreseeable future, which currently covers the next few years of EVE development.

WIS is no more of an "expansion" of Eve than Dust 514 is. It has nothing to do with Eve. Eve is about spaceship to spaceship combat not walking in an avatar. CCP finally realized this and they decided to put their efforts into improving things that make the game better.

Don't get why this is needed. A dozen people max in one "instance" would be plenty. Heck even 2 would be a good start.

Look. If you'd just take what I like about every game I've played and ball it all into one, you'd have a perfect game.
AND I don't see why you won't do this with EVE. After all, it'll transform this into the most fabulous collection of pixels ever imagined, then I can tell ALL my friends I got you to do it!

I also want a pony to ride, little sailboats, a fishing hole (while we're doing this water thing) and EMOTES!
LOTS of EMOTES! You can't really game unless you can show your friends all your EMOTES.

TYVM. I'll be waiting for genius to strike you CCP, so you can do my bidding.

ZOMFG!!!,

Nope you are wrong. Check my sig.

EVE is a game about spaceships and there's an enormous amount of work to do on the in-space gameplay before players (or developers) are ready to sacrifice it for a totally new type of gameplay - CCP Rise

Hello,

it has been a couple of time since CQ has been released.

1. Now, nothing has been done yet, I don't understand whats going on any why players simply can't meet together at the station?
2. Where are the game concepts for the 3d avatar in the EVE universe?


First, I want to determine that the Character-Creation tool is one of the best I've ever seen in a game.
It's really too bad and a big waste if we can't really take advantage of this as a result of lacking content.


I talked with lots of players, most are afraid that EVE would become some kind of SIM with hairdressers, etc. Also some complained that its useless in the EVE concept and that they don't like that CQ takes so much time at docking, thats why they cancel it.

But all people I was talking to also agreed that it would be cool if we could create our own stations by modules step by step in which we can also walk with the avatars. And most also agreed that it would be awesome to combine those features like:

- Ship fights..and after a station has been shot down (station = unlocked)

- enterable stations ..with inside station fights ( limited people) for a final decision

if CCP would also work out their FPS that would be really awesome.

I think there are serveral aspects in the game that easily could be enhanced with a certain "station" or "planet" fight..in EVE of course.


Imagine the game-depth that such features would bring:
- craftable Station Modules for your hangars
- bunches of Weapons&Equip for you avatar, 3d models and think of the loot that could be used as trophies in the hangars ( cigarettes, etc)
- PI: if something needs to be repaired you have to visit the planet, etc => 3d visualisation of PI infrastructures, same is to say to labs in space etc: make them walkable and enterable in pvp


If everything could be looted in pvp and sold...awesome precious gameconent in an mmo, that provides a certain game depth.

Of course the spaceship gamplay also should be enhanced and developed, but a combination of both to offer new possibilities would give the game a certain meaning.


I feel as if you have only talked to yourself...

Congrats OP no one gives any cares about what you think regarding WIS, especially since it is such a poorly designed troll that I will not even grant you the time to spell check this post. Your moment is over, ISD LOCK GODS, I SUMMON YOU FROM THE WORMHOLE FORUMS, HARKEN TO ME, CEASE YOUR LOCKING OF GOOD TROLL THREADS IN WORMHOLE SPACE AND APPLY THY LOCK TO THIS SLOWLY DEGRADING FECES STAIN THAT IS AN OP....

Eve is and always has been a niche game. But that doesn't mean it isn't a good game.

SInce Incarna, CCP has put EVE back into beta and it's been all about Spaceships, while it's been great, subs are no longer growing. CCP will take a long hard look at what they're doing.

Now i may knock that other hyped up vaporware game (if you know my post you know what i'm talking about) but there is something that CCP could take form it, and it *MIGHT* become the future of new eden.

That is to have all there games essentially one.

Eve for spaceships
Legion for ground/fps combat
Valk for fighter/atmospheric combat
and Something else for avatar game play.

You could then sell them as a package or as separate games, based on the experience you want. But using the same char for all and all interconnected. with WiS being the thing that combines them all.

Its possible.. but as of this writing and as far as we know WiS and anything like that is in mothballed and nor being touched.

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!
