I noticed i have the option to add these two things to my overview today. I'm not sure when it was added and why now. I'm thinking these bases will be something related to Dust.

Everyone should speculate wildly on what these items will be.

I noticed those. I was wondering when someone would make a thread.

Perhaps the upcoming dev blogs will fill in the blanks.

The new dev blog talked about future features of eve and one main theme was WAR. Those bases do seem to go well with a war theme.

First thought was capsuleer base sounds like a pos really. But with us having a war in the future maybe the capsuleer base would make alot of sense. Like a POS but cooler maybe or something.

If you notice they're under the Planetary Interaction category of the overview filters.

Don't ban me, bro!

Yes, makes me hope these "Capsuleer BasThes" are like a private station i can put on a planet surface.

I wonder if they will be on the planet surface, or in orbit. If in orbit, maybe that's what the "Data Subverter" is for.

I would imagine the surface, unless dust players have some type of orbital launcher to access non-surface structures.

I'm hoping these are at least orbital defense platforms we can shoot down. It would be much cooler if they were planetside and we had to learn a whole new "Planetary Bombing/Attack" skill along with associated modules so we can run bombing or even straifing missions in cruisers. BTW I also hope if these are planetside they offer surface to space defences such as missles or even guns. I just think it would be cool to add in some space to ground support to the ground missions while letting the ground defend themselves.

According to the latest SiSi data dump, these items are going to available from the NeX Store. You will be able to view them doing nothing through a video feed in the Captain's Quarters.

Probably, though they do have their command ships over the battlefield and enter battle via drop ships, so who knows.

I was under the impression that even though Dusters will have access to ground installations, AKA PI, they'll live on the war barges in space... So I assume anymore bases, structures, whatever will be space based.

Hmm next question is, how long have these entries been there?

There are items and options in eve that have been there for since like forever, for example wallet catagories, I mean who in the heck gets money from inheritence?

Either way I have the most difficult time getting Sisi to install seperately without killing eve. so far managed to wipe out 4 copies of eve all because the command line of telling the eve online program in the sisi folder to go the singualrity breaks on the first try and connects to tranquility instead and downloads the wrong patch but meh, its what i get for using a windows that doenst like eve to run at all without me having to relogin as the adminisitrator when I am already logged in as one.

Space elevators... that's what we'll be able to build when we control a planet. They can be built by Dust or EVE players.

Well they are under a header called "planetary interaction" and PI hasn't been around too long.

IIRC "inheritance" is how the money you start the game with is labeled. Can't say about those other wallet logs but they aren't as apparent as overview settings.
