NICE BUT WILL WE BE ABLE TO DRAG SHIPS TO THE HANGAR BACKGROUND TO BOARD THEM AND DOUBLE CLICK ANYWHERE TO OPEN CARGO AND ALL THAT COOL STUFF???????????? ShockedShockedShockedLol


due to the amount of all caps and emoticons, I'll check with the UI guys to make sure that's part of the story.


they say it will have that. so yes.



Carry on like this CCP I might just have to buy a monocle.

tbh im a bit disappointed that the other racial CQs are coming next.

4 rooms with 0 usefulness is still 0 usefulness. I'd rather have seen a single corp meeting room implemented first, or a bar, etc so at least we could do something in incarna.

CarbonUI =/= Incarna/Captain's Quarters

Carbon allows them to easily make CQ-style UI elements and traditional UI elements use a lot of uniform coding, but I believe Carbon drives the entire UI now, including your traditional menus and boxes you're used to.

And Carbon is far more efficient code-wise than any previous iteration, which would mean the same interface, but with the new Carbon code, should theoretically be more efficient and less taxing.

will we be able to toggle this on and off at will emulating disembarking of our ships, or will it be like the door option and require a redock to activate?

Yep CarbonUI is in fact already much more responsive and faster than the old UI. However bugs and some removed functionality in it have pretty much stolen the attention from the good things. It will be ready someday and hopefully all the old code is replaced with brand new improved ui and tools.

Just wanted to let you know you're my favorite Dev at CCP ;p

Wish you'd post/blog more :)

About the hangar, I thought you guys said it wouldn't be the same "ship spinning"? So I thought you were making something different than the "old hangar"? Or was that scrapped?

Yes, hope that too. Don't want to switch through the ESC menu - graphic settings.
Would be much better if you firstly are in ship spinning mode after docking and then have the option to leave the pod which leads to walking in station (WiS).

A 'ship spinning OR WiS' option would be better than the situation right now because CQ don't have any usefulness atm and the door view doesn't provide the same functionality as the old hangar view. Provided the new ship spinning view will have the double click functionality etc..
But when the time comes and we can see/interact with other chars etc. there will be many more people who want to use WiS. At the same time we want good performance when the Alt is just docked (WiS reduces performance by a good junk) when multiboxing.

If this makes it back in, I may think of activating my other subs, but I will wait until I see it, talk has been too cheap with CCP.

As much as I like what has been said in this threads dev posts, even if they stand to their word, gratefulness is a bit misplaced.


Might encourage them to develop no content, threatening to **** all over us (mandatory CQ), pulling it back and have peoples gratitude just for that.

EVE will always and forever be mainly about space and flight. The Incarna process is really just a side-game.


This is really what the community wants CCP. Hell, even I admit it would be nice to have common areas and poker halls, but that is nothing but time between flying internet spaceships. If you could fix up the game (make assualt frigates besides Mimmy worth using, offer faction logistics carriers, provide command ships a relevant role besides being a floating primary that offers mediocre fleet enhancements.) Then Incara is well worth your effort.

If I buy 20 monocles will you finally fix the Deimos, Absolution, Legion, Hel, Retribution, Electronic Attack Ships, Omen, Prophecy, Nighthawk (and most other command ships,) Dragonflys (actually, screw them things hope they stay the worst fighters,) Amarr T2 drones (aside from sentries,) Triage Nid, Leviathan...

thats just off the top of my head. And thats the broken ships that destroy their gameplay, thats not counting the "overpowered" broken ships (avoided them to skip the debates over how things aren't overpowered by their fans who don't want to see the ship nerfed.)

So CCP, will even 1/3rd of those ship issues even be considered for winter balancing?

Old hangar is coming back, lightweight on resources as it was before and with same functionality?
Ship spinning, zooming, drag ship to activate and double click to open cargo?

Not some Carbon hybrid that is gonna eat 100% cpu as CQ does?

This sounds too good to be true.... and we get old icons back. Something is seriously bad gonna happen soon :(


I might actually voluntarily enable CQ *fingers crossed*


Indeed... stripping away the "mandatory" part of it, I might actually stop boycotting it. I should put together a list of other aspects of the game/non-game that I boycott and why.

OSHI-- So much replies on my post in one night ^^

Thanks a lot T0rfifrans for the answer, like other says with that hability (something that i demand since the pre-version of Incarna on singularity as a reminder for you CCP Blink) is the only thing that can start Incarna for the regular Eve Player.

we are capsuleers, we have to feel that going offline isn't something regular and without consequences Smile

And thanks a lot, i love you ;)
