CCP t0rfifrans has stuff to show you in his latest dev blog. Namely, the three remaining Captain's Quarters that are about to go live on Singularity today, and will be on TQ later next month.

Enjoy!

Damn

Edit:

Fantastic work on finally getting these out; I was beginning to worry you'd 'dropped' them after all... :(

And now, in the 'best tradition' of EVE, instead of telling you how impressed I am, and how happy this makes me, I'm going to get straight to my list of complaints....

1. That bloody kids cereal box has snuck it's way back in again - this needs to be banned, pronto ;)

Well, yeah... that's pretty much it for complaints, for now...

Note - Torfi, now that the art assets are in place for developing 'modular' structures - please (seriously) - get your Devs to make a proper "Pod Room" - this nanite excuse is terrible, as is the stepladder solution.

So.... what is that blank, white square at the bottom of the blog about? Is CCP now addicted to enigmas?

Due to a lock of resources in the art department, CCP had to reuse the door from the Minmatar quarters. They felt, since all of the player base has probably turned off their CQ, it is the door they are most familiar with and did not want to introduce a new door for fear of inciting more riots and having more terroristic attacks against indestructible statues.

Edit:
Sorry, I forgot, resources will be available to design new doors in 18 months.

The shading and lighting has been improved, and importantly, the spawn point has been updated so that you don’t have to walk 10 centimeters before being able to interact with your ship. You will also be facing your ship when you spawn.

Thank you, thank you \o/

And for all you rich people who like spending in the NEX store Blink

Copy/paste;
All of those rooms were built using modular assets, so that the investment made in building the Captain’s Quarters will be capitalized on further when more environments get built. They have given us the start of a library of modules, which can be used to flesh out racially themed interiors for all sorts of interesting gameplay.

The video is pretty slick and I think pretty much every dev blog that talks about a new feature should have a video.

Also, this bit:

What if I want the Gallente mirror in the Caldari CQ? Is that what we're talking about and when can I do that?

Gallente CQ is proof that CCP doesn't haet us

Great stuff. I'm looking forward to all of these. Those two Amarr gold statues are awesome.

Lovely new assests, and thankful for more help on ship inspirations at least, getting to know the insides is very helpful for making outsides.
