quick question to Torfi if i can!

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.


does this mean that as more assets are built for the station environments, you'll be able to augment your captains quarters to have more rooms/ a different layout or am i thinking the wrong way round??

If i am, have you thought about the possibilities i just eluded to? ie. for a price per room upgrade, u can upgrade ur captains quarters with different rooms and different layouts.

So this is the big news that you made quite a hype in the past few days? ShockedShockedShocked Nevertheless the CQ for gallente looks pretty sleek at least it can compensate for the suckiness that they are in PVP.

Awesome. Release these things asap so you can stop working on WiS and instead focusing on FiS. We want Eve not wow.

Your wrong. The more avenues to experience EVE as a sci-fi simulator the better.
Sure, don't neglect FiS (the bulk of what makes up EVE), but why limit it to just that?

WiS indeed is a great addition. But i personally am getting the feeling it's all they are currently focusing on. We want more content in space Sad More missions, random events like incursions, real exploration. And ffs something that isn't so repetitive as 99% of the PVE content ingame is. We have PVP and it's great and i love it but still...

They look nice, but until there is something to do, I'm not turning it on.

I must say, the quarters look really nice.
I look forward to when you push it live.

Just one thing. Building Minmatar quarters first was... suboptimal.
I'm still locked up in there until the release.

They look nice, But 4 rooms that do very little is still pretty much the same as 1 room that does very little.

I'm waiting for the next stage of incarna before I get excited.

Isn't the point of an appetizer to make you want more? There's nothing I want to see more of in this.

CCP: There is to be a test of Time dilation tomorrow, 22 hours from this post. Will it be with this client, or will we have to do another patch or download?

Does this client have TiDi? should we all go to the FFA system and start shooting?

Still Watching This Space for FiS updates... still disappointed. At least this wasn't a devblog promising a devblog, but... we're still waiting on this brave new direction that's Coming Soon.

To be frank i personally wont use the CQ because it's resource consuming and i`m not into the hole SIMS simulation but never the less i like the styles of CQ's

Couldn't find the 'I like' button, so i had to come over here to tell.

Nice job guys. Can't wait to get my clean Galente or Caldari CQ.
To be honest, the Minmatar CQ could use some extra paint... Big smile

I thought so too, but it fits with their overall motif. The UFP in the Star Trek universe are rather decadent and foppish :-P.

To me everything looks like CCP has put some real love into it art wise and I am looking forward to seeing these on tranq and will be trying them on sisi.

I can only hope that upgraded quarters (whenever those get released) will be flexible in how you can upgrade and not just tiers, but rather purchasable modules...I hope for isk...but if it is aurum I won't complain as long as it doesn't give someone enhanced game-breaking advantages.

Yes they should enhance faction warfare and update the whole WH space thing and make assault frigates more awesome. But many things are in the works by teams other than the ones that produced the racial CQ's. Don't get dispirited...team BFF is looking out for you!
