Seems like I remember CCP Seagull bringing up a planned mobile app that was in the works. Maybe last fanfest or something but seems like it's been a pretty long time since it was last mentioned. Is this still a thing?

It's past time for CCP to tap into the lucrative mobile app and augmented reality market. I suggest a new title - EVE: GO. The objective is to go around your neighbourhood, shoot red crosses and mine boulders in the park. Then, after you level up your Raven, you can go and PvP to the local community centers and landmarks, which serve as Citadels, and run circles around monuments with an entosis link. It will be fun!

Until people start the "emergent player behavior" of beating the **** out of each other and nicking phone's and whatnot.
At which point people will start crying for a local law enforcement buff from CCP (you know it would happen)

we are living in strange times, when one cannot ask or do snarky comment without being accused of whining.....

I'd be also interested on any info about said app though :)

That or they would demand a nerf because the 20-life GCC timer currently used by law enforcement for unprovoked murder (no I didn't actually look up the real sentence, do it yourself if you must) is a bit more severe than the 15 minutes they are used to P

But yes, sadly enough, it *would* happen Ugh

Pay directly with an app using google wallet? No u_u... Is is a big deal? Not at all but I'll pretend it is.
Also, foreplay requires some heavy faction ship spinning - EVE Droid doesn't provide me with that.

I also want to spin my entire frozen collection u_u.


TL;DR - Gimme.
