I was curious what ever happened to these ideas that were "experimental" according to the video? Will we ever get what is in the video at the 9 minute mark of localized damage or the high resolution textures?

I don't know about anyone else but I'm a graphics junky and love this sort of thing. It makes for outstand screenshots and videos...

I think at the moment their focus is "OH GOD OH GOD, WHERE ARE ALL THE PLAYERS GOING", but I'm sure one day it will shift to graphics.

I believe CCP has already implemented high resolution textures on most everything in the game.

As for the Localized Damage, Bloodline Blending, etc., those are great ideas along with Atmospheric Flight, Ambulation, Modular POS, Avatar Exploration Sites, Ring Mining, etc.

Every year at Fanfest CCP unveils new ideas which they always promote as a WIP = work in progress.

That means it may take years to develop and more importantly, may not even be added to the game due to unforeseen issues.

No thanks, I'm still using it. Mate, I've been here far too long to quit. I'm riding this baby right into the ground.

There is altogether fantastic stuff that has been planned and shown at Fanfest.
Unfortunately only very little of any of that has ever been implemented to Live.

Hardly.

I regard you with more or less abject contempt and pity.

Also the sheer arrogance in thinking that just because someone posts in the same thread as you, that its about you or because of you.

Watching youtube vids from previous fanfests is good entertainment while between things in EVE.
Theres a lot of good and inspiring stuff in them over the years.

That localized damage thing looks so nice is so sad they will never implement it Sad its weird that after my ship recieves 5 minutes of concentrated fire the only visible damage is a lame trail of fire. Roll

I'm still waiting for single PC client where you get to use same character on Legion (Dust 514 pc version) \ Valkyrie \ EVE online.

I remember watching some time ago the video with the concept from the fanfest and I thought myself it looks great.
Actually number of people I know wish to join EVE once this concept is reality.

1) this is in the old ccp era. what i mena by this, is sense about 2014, ccp has kinda shifted to a 'what is actually coming' instaead of 'what might be coming' stance

2) they RnD stuff all the time, but sometimes things like back end changes need to be made for it to necome viabale. Stuff has been chaning behind the scenes, so we may see some of this come to light, esp if an engine upgrade is in the works (and eve is a bit past due for an upgade imo)

3) the point of these is to get people to talk about it and tell ccp they want it. thats how the dedicate resources to side projects.

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

You know that only one of the games you want in that "unified" client actually exists?

Once the whine threads about imbalance stop I'm sure they will tackle graphics, but until then graphics will get a fraction of the manpower balance and silencing the complaints gets.

Because you know....entitlement.

Many of those ideas come up periodically as we plan for future releases. Some of the stuff we've shown as experimental over the last couple of years is likely to come sooner than other things.

However, rest assured that we have plenty of new graphics work in the pipeline, both overall improvements and improvements to specific assets.

I'll refrain right now from talking details because a lot of the stuff we're working on isn't ready to show in its final form.

What a tease.... Interesting point... Game is stunning, but we cannot default to interesting camera mode. can we get a second player default camera so I see this perspective all the time?

Just offset camera, set depth and zoom. Fantastic. Small sample of how eve should look by default...

You guys should reconsider that honestly... I know the old arguments of don't promise something you cant deliver but in this case a little nerding out over new stuff or planned changes isn't exactly a bad thing.
EVE isn't your normal community. While we can be vitriolic as hell we also tend to like seeing progress... even if we also complain about that progress to near infinity.

A half assed "wishlist pipeline" with actual DETAILS on the directions CCP wants to take the game in would be very well received by the community.

Note that this is a thread which started with linking our art panel from three years ago saying "Where is this stuff you showed us?" That's the risk of being too speculative.

That said, typically this time of year is when CCP takes (and other Icelandic companies take) a fresh look at their roadmap. That means that it's a little harder to speak to future plans than it might be otherwise.
