It would be nice if you could walk around your ship like this.

Where do you walk-around people keep springing up from? Just let it go...

What useful function would walking around our ships serve? Keep in mind that a typical EVE frigate is slightly larger than the RSI constellation.

useless features are bad features. at best its cool once, at worst you *have* to use it (and get borred by it) all the time.

For the love of the Empress, we sit in capsules and control our ships from there. You cannot hop out ouf your capsule just like that. Roll You are the entire crew of your ship and need to control the systems at all times.

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

You are not the entire crew of your ship if it's any bigger than a frigate. There are certain systems on destroyers and up (and even some complicated [read "T2"] frigates) that are beyond a capsuleer's need or interest to control and those systems are handled by crew or drones.

NO

Anything short of the idea that I, and I alone, control every aspect of my ship while lazily floating naked in a pod full of goo destroys my immersion.

If there are other people around, and they expect me to shower and put on clothes, I might as well go hang out in the real world.



I'm not thrilled with CCP's addition of boxer shorts to my corpse either. I don't wear anything while playing Eve, so I don't expect my character's corpse to all of a sudden be wearing underwear after a routine suicide.

If it makes you feel any better, the other people around are mortally terrified of you and consider you a god who cares nothing for their existence (if you even acknowledge it at all) and would end their lives on a whim if it suited you.

I like the OP idea.

BUT!!!! only in the context of this post https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=308007&find=unread and where this conversation was going.

It just makes more sense. if you are flying, you can't be walking. And to think that you have more crew for a bigger ship is a little silly. We spend long enough training for some of these freighters. WE BETTER BE IN FULL CONTROL!!!!! :P

This is a feature I've wanted for years, I'd love to see something like this but keep in mind these ships are absolutely HUGE.

Camera drone robot, problem solved.
Should be no different than controlling an ordinary camera drone, Capsule pilots multi-task to the point that Templar one has a Capsuleer studying something in his head WHILE giving a speech

Enjoy your walk-around "pod view" of a pasty, semi-naked capsuleer covered in slime.

wow they seriously have a toilet you can use in the quarters.

Agreed though, Eve needs Avatar content and indeed was the original star citizen until the CSM/FIS delegates ****** it up for everyone by hijacking community anger of pay to win items and convincing CCP that the pitchforks were for avatars.

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...

We come from the Player Base. The very same player base that wants Eve to succeed on every level and smash the other space sims out there into oblivion. Incarna is an unfinished feature all we want is for it to have some love, after all it's already in the game.

Thanks, but most of us have zero interest in "EVE Life".
