From the Eve Online Twitter account today.

YES. The perfect video to adapt to captain's quarters. BRAVO. youtu.be/biacyzAPW4o #eveonline

Is this the first public acknowledgement of this awesome bit of tinkering? I have I missed one?

Expect it to be deleted promptly and have this thread locked, if past experiences is anything to go by...

I dunno. They have gone all out and linked to it on their official Twitter account. Well, we'll see I guess.

Just wait until someone gets wind of the fact that they're effectively endorsing client modification, something that gives a perma ban, that was what I was referring to.

They've got bigger fish to fry (i.e. botting). This should have been a feature anyway Lol

Or... you could do what the smart people do... shut off captains cupboard entirely, alt-tab to a media player and watch the videos in full, lag-free screen. CQ was a mistake.

Maxim 6. If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.

bleh stop trolling is getting old already, i LOVE FIS but i wouldn't mind if in the future i can invite some people to my (hopefully caldari) CQ and let them see some video i m playing on my TV, using a P2P connection it could be done via direct stream without ******* up or using server bandwitdh... this is about inmersion not gameplay really, but heh even i get bored of shooting people and want to just walk around.

I also think it would be awasome to watch videos I pick in my CQ. This would make time pass a little faster while i'm sitting in station waiting for people to log on, travel to you, finish fitting ships ect. I can't count the number of times ive missed conversations and events completly because I alt tabbed out to watch a video or something.

Yeah this thread won't last long and the tweet will probably get deleted. Prove me wrong, CCP.

If you red and blue guys can't say yes or no to doing this being ok, at least let us know it has to be looked into.

I too would like to know if I can watch things while I wait in station, especially given that there is only 19 hours 35 minutes and 23 seconds to go till season two of ponies.

The only gray area is how this modification sets this player up advantageously ?

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships
