EVE General Discussion

Lol let him first read the whole thread again, maybe he can come up with some new troll comments.
Not the same sentences that are put in here over and over again.

That's because they after a decade of talking about walk in stations (I looked up an article I first saw for the date), showing us bars and such at fan fest years ago only made stations a place to walk in! We were hoping for more than a just walking in clothing new feature. Please do plan more for stations, but something that involves an activity with isk, or socially. I'm glad to see it looks like more of the teams are actually producing content that's being released now, though its hard to tell as a player.

Looking forward to more ship warfare and awesome, and also doing more than walking, in stations.

Arem

P.S. Not trying to stir up an old thread, just throwing my cents in the bucket.

This is not and old thread, this is actual, ongoing thread.

Too bad we have to wait until fanfest ,to hear ,if its a good reason for CCP too.
I think CCP will wait until then ,with good info on new stuff ,ideas and visions FIS or WIS related

Would be nice but I highly doubt CCP will have much to show or say. I think it'll mainly be more of CCP asking 'What do you envision for WiS'?

Personally another avenue I would like to see Walk in stations go is MACHINES (Mercs) & Robots. You have your avatar that’s all good and well with their social interaction and bling walking around doing pointless ....stuff. For me that is a nice to have but WHAT WE NEED IS A FREEKEN ROBOT YOU CAN GET INTO AND SHOOT SOME ****! NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL EVE IN PROGRESS!
Keep it inline with Eve culture, machines you can fly with and now machines that you can walk with ...all with their appropriate tiers and mods. Third person !

High sec is a no war zone in stations ...but you need to go and save the damsel in distress , so you shoot the baddies outside the outpost in dead space and now time to rock and roll! First you need to disable station security so you shoot it into structure ,dock and jump into your MKM931 (Mean Killing Machine ) you fit Autos with Fusion check if your shield resist are the right ones and plug the key kard into the door . Whaboom the door opens .....your auto cannons start smoking ...as the projectile shells bounces off the floor ...The environment inside the stations are hostile since the airlocks have been breached ..so everyone is either dead or in a sealed airtight chamber or ...... in a robot (Merc ) shooting back at u .

Same Scenario with Low sec ...keep it NPC orientated...

Now with 0.0 in order to take over a station you have to dock up and take over some strategic areas with your fleet. The defenders obviously need to defend that area . Everything happens in (Mercs) inside the station.

Imagine your Tengu equipped with a merc docking at a sleeper station in a wormhole....everything is just scary and you don’t have a clue what type of alien will be jumping at you around the next corner, but you and your small crew keeps on pushing through the dark alley ...with blue and purple lights flashing through the thick smoke ..... or is it fog? All you can hear is your fellow mercs steps crushing down on the floor...and then... all hell breaks loose!

I think MIS (Machines in station ) will be a more viable option than individual avatars doing combat for the obvious reason ...you only have to cater for a few models , so less stress in terms of pixels and data transfer ( my attempt at being a nerd lol).

Keep it real guys !!!Get into a MERC and leave the meat bags down at dusty planets where they belong

Then we just need to make noise :) Well I supposed that this topic has consistently been on the first page is a pretty good development, no need to shoot at statues...

As long as they continue to improve and add new content to FIS while adding some minor additions to WiS, i think that's alright.

Crucible adds 3 new CQs for WiS but because a crap ton of features and improvements were done for FiS, no one cares enough to rage. So keep doing that, CCP :) You don't have to be soo afraid as long as you keep your priorities balanced out...

Improving the scope of the game, being able to walk-in-stations and interact at the avatar level is going to improve the immersive factors of the game and allow for more intrigue and interaction. So I'm all for it.

Station Office Quarters bombing: An idea regarding "station games" that has been bandied about at times in our corp and alliance is intended to circumvent the frustration of griefers who play docking games to escape combat. We think it would be pretty cool and add to the game play if we could hack into a captain's quarters/hangar and plant explosive devices that force players to undock or have their stuff blown up and ejected form the station into space.

This would add some avatar skills: hacking; demolition; sabotage etc. so that one could force an undock.

Such a feature would give corporations and others being griefed additional options to deal with griefers who run for cover and are then essentially unable to be engaged by a superior force. Some limitations might be put in place such as:

1. Time limitation/restriction: bombs can't be placed for 30-60 minutes.

2. Once the bomb is armed it starts a countdown and alarm that warns both the sabotage team and the CQ occupants.

3. Bomb is disarmed by undocking if one has the bomb disposal skill.

4. Undocking in response to a bomb threat means you cannot dock for 3 times as long as the regular timer.

5. Logging when a bomb is active detonates the bomb and ejects the bomb victim's stuff (or a percentage thereof) into space for the station bomb squad to retrieve (i.e. the avatar who planted the bomb can collect the loot from a named can).

Just an idea that could add to the fun and options for players dealing with hisec griefers who up until implementation have been able to get away with docking. Might need some more consideration but would at least give all players some additional options that lead to more PVP.

Do I want WiS? Yes!

what troll comments ? i was being serious.

anyway this thread is repeating itself since around page 50, the above 2 posters should stop holding hands and start bringing something to the discussion.

Not really...the people who want nothing but FiS and refuse to accept WiS of any kind are very few of the total players in EvE but they seem to be VERY vocal. Hence...babies.
