It will have to be the captain's quarter. My satisfaction of seeing how my ship looks like is sated when I am out flying it.


And what happens when you want to turn back a mission or unload your cargo? What if you need to repair or buy amo?

I prefer space too, but sometimes you need to dock. The ship hangar is better as it takes 2-3 seconds of loading time, which is perfect when you need to dock-undock very quickly.

Plus, on a RP view it just makes more sense. I am not going do get out of my ship unless i want to chill out in my CQ. I don't understand why this option to switch from hangar to CQ wasn't there in the first place.

It's almost as if CCP was so proud of their CQ's they wanted to force them on us. Might sound a bit paranoid, but i don't see any other reasons to it.

[i]FiS should be the priority, but WiS should not be burried!

Don't encourage CCP to make empty promises or Incarna will happen again![/i]

I'd prefer a bug-free game. Now with this latest turd, T3 ships are fubar in hangers (a bug from about 1.3 years ago). I can see this return is going to be exceedingly shortlived.

Captain's quarters, feels weird ship spinning now.. Also I noticed no performance increase with ship spinning - which is the only reason i would have used it.

I prefer having both options.

I think that CCP has their own stats showing this data from every client.

Get classic forum style - custom videos to captains quarters screen

Play with the best - die like the rest

Ship spinning is fine.

Until CQ has some kind of real content then there is no real reason to use it.

Gameplay in EVE is driven by the use of ship avatars not personal avatars so the ship spinning fits with this model of game play.

I prefer the CQ, simply because the ships don't spin in the "ship spinning" screen, the camera does. I hate inaccuracy. Cool

Apologies to Sir Mix-a-lot, but I've said it before:

I like ship spinning and I can not lie
You other capsuleers can't deny
That when a ship flips around in an itty bitty space
And a thruster thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that hangar was stuffed
Deep in the hangar she's profilin'
I'm hooked and I can't stop spinnin'
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And snap your screenshot
My corp-mates tried to warn me
But that hull you got makes me so horny
Ooh, phat-textured-skin
You say you wanna get in my CQ?
Well, spin me, spin me
'Cause you ain't that average internet spaceship
I've seen them spinnin'
To hell with flyin'
She's gloss, tight,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'ceptor
I'm tired of managers
Sayin' 2d doors are the thing
Take the average space man and ask him that
She gotta spin much hull
So, capsuleers! (Yeah!) GiRLs! (Yeah!)
Has your hangar got the spin? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to spin it! (Flip it!) Torque it! (Rotate it!)
Shake that healthy hull!
Hangar got spin!


edit: Yes, that's a vote for ship spinning

Ship spinning definitely. Never used stupid sims in space, neither do I plan to.

Well if the CQ feature were complete, I would prefer it.

Since not...

SPINNING!!!

My kids love looking at the space ships. Moving some lice ridden space dude around or a door, not so much.

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

Ship spinning for sure. I missed it so much, I'll never take it for granted again.

Ship spinning by far. I was just in awe of it last night too, like a buddy that you haven't seen in forever coming home!

Of my 3 accounts I keep this one on CQ because I look better than my hulk.

The other 2 are generally only run when I multibox so to get decent fps they are on ship spinning. Otherwise dumping ore or setting up the fleet is a painful slide show.

CQ by far and i can't wait to see stations fully implemented. IMO if you like to identify yourself with a ship you should run see a psychotherapist.
