I'm Impressed

Newb here.

I just wanted to say, after reading all of the complaining on the forums about "barbie dolls" and "prison cells", I really wasn't expecting much when I loaded into the game. I was pleasantly surprised. If the Captain's Quarters environment is indeed a preview of what's to come in the future of WiS development, I look forward to it.

I understand the that after so many years of talk and hype a mere 1 room with a balcony experience dropped off as an entire expansion (even if it is free...) was cause for some let down - but I'm still damn impressed with it.
Sure I'll get bored with it in a short while - itching to pass through that door and stroll my way down to the cantina for some live entertainment but from a new player perspective - I like it. And again, look forward to the future of EvE: FiS and WiS.

Nice work.

Good post and welcome to eve.

P.S.
Probably should have posted in the New Player forum instead of here.

Welcome. I think your post made some devs very happy.

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

Thanks for the welcome.

Noob time: I first played about a year ago on a trial account then got pulled back into the fantasy MMORPG-land by friends. So about 2 weeks near a year ago + 6 or so hours tonight (at least half of which was spent in the character creator).

I read through the forums while the client updated. Maybe they were old threads that had been bumped recently but there were quite a few posts with those particular complaints!

As well, I considered posting this in the New Citizens forum but since it wasn't a Q that needed an A, I opted for general!

Welcome!
Don't worry about posting in General Discussion, there are a lot less...relevant...threads.

Please don't encourage CCP to put even 1 more manhour into WiS, it's enough of a fiasco already.

I'm ok with CCP putting in lots of effort into WiS, as long as they take care of FiS first and everything works (decently) fine.

Excellence is not a skill, it's an attitude.

Point is, WiS needs a certain direction which hasn't been fully thought through yet by CCP (imo).

Other than that, I'm still on the fence about this particular subject.

Oh, and welcome to EvE. Cool

As long as they put their work on Eve Online and not on other side projects (like WoD), I am happy with everything.

I really dont care as long as the real EVE (FiS) doesnt rot in a corner for 2 years like it just did because of WiS.

Also if more WiS means more MT, I dont want it.

Welcome!

Yes it was a failier on all side for WiS, even if the graphics are great.

Their fault for not putting any decent content into WiS, and us for not specifying Walking AND Running in stations.

If they had those 60 devs from World of Darkness working on WIS instead of an unknown and most likely crap MMORPG the game would end up being pretty fantastic, especially if said devs worked on spaceships after.

It would be really cool to have Corporation Quarters in our POS, chilling inside with others, looking at a huge window into space.*

Also, I'd like to dock in the Ship Maintenance Array and see all our ships parked there in neat order <3


* Corp Quarters need to have a dscan button!
