Hrmph … if fashion designers can be lured to design for EVE's virtual item store, being paid commissions for sales, and people have the opportunity to flaunt their $2000 Gucchi virtual leather, I can see that CCP might actually end up making a lot of money.

Of course as a capsular, I look forward to the opportunity to blow them up and take their stuff. But CCP has denied us that so far Evil

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this video. Alhough I have to notice once again that people in the future only wear black according to CCP.

These things are all nice, extra tatoos, interesting walkways/corridors. Lets hope the whole of incarna looks as polished as this although I think we will be dissapointed (as we have been so far).

The fact that fashion designers are helping making eve more fancy isn't a bad thing, the fact that FIS is taking a back seat for this is a bad thing. They need to go hand in hand.

A guy with a fancy skull-tattoo is impressive, lets hope CCP also realise that it will not be impressive if it is just bought with aurum, but can also be epic arc mission reward from the blood raiders (or something)

Seriously though this is probably the most depressing thing I could have possibly imagined concerning the allocation of resources from CCP.

Ok, only two things missing from that vid. The black leather biker hat and the Village People soundtrack. Lol



Whilst I applaud the visuals in the vid it looks a little to resource hungry for in-game. Imagine 30 player avatars in a graphic intensive environment like that.

Nex (Cash Shop) / Aurum - removing sand from the sandbox since Incarna. Currently the only use for aurum is to buy virtual items in the in-game store, but Cockerill expects to expand its uses in the future.

That character is actually an exact replica of Zombie Boy. If you've never heard of him, he's a guy that had a lot of his body tattooed to make him look undead.

They should have used the money it took to hire that guy and get a new CEO instead.

Eve's next expansion: "Zoolander"

Wars will be fought out on the catwalk, the winner's face will be projected to the loser's corp/alliance space's billboards that will be at every gate of sov held space. Whenever you see the face of the enemy you automatically incurr a 10 minute aggression timer.

Well done, this is what we need. Let's all hope Mattel corp. won't shoot Space barbies down with their lawyers or something.

Meanwhile, our modules randomly offline, our client is slower so our pods don't reliably warp out, and fw plexes still mainly only spawn at noon London time.

Make faction war occupancy pvp instead of pve https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=53815&#post53815

If you weren't already ashamed of calling yourself a Eve player after the whole monocle debacle guess what? We are a space ship game with a fashion show.

Actually i liked it , that video, i serious think if CCP takes their time to make it flawless and USEFULL The whole concept of wis will be a succes

Yes i do believe there has to be other options than your CQ/door and no ship spinning will never come back, but the game can never stay a niche game, if you want more content eve has to grow with both WIS and new content in space for ALL kind of players, both for hardcore pvp and/hardcore carebear( even the pony lovers need attention) and everything inbetween

Probably just wishfull thinking here

I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire

I have no issue with designers and special cloths...

but...


They should not take away from the dev teams working on EvE. The Art team is currently canabalized to work on WIS and junk aurum boots.

Aurum cloths and special items should be teams in addition to the FIS dev's. We should nto have to sacrafice FIS for boots.
The new team should be funded by Aurum..Boots cost $ to design, so they cost aurum.

Stop canabalizing eve.

I like the CONCEPT of Incarna

-Incarna itself was a failed release (mostly, new guns and agent finder are a big win still :P)
-CQ was awesome up until I got bored of the TV and turned it off to load faster
-The idea of walking around and being able to meet people "face to face" is what had so many ppl down for WiS in the first place, that and the RP potential
-I'm down with the whole fashion thing, I prob won't spend much time with it but the variety is nice
-The fashion aspect and the WiS in general I imagine is a great pull to get more female players into the game
-I agree that FiS is neglected and that there needs to be some better management of mixed development of FiS and WiS

The funniest thing about this video is that Dodixie actually has a red star in the game.

The concept of Incarna is great. I remember, years ago, getting all fired up about "Ambulation." The trick is leaving microtransactions out of it entirely and making sure that the bulk of EVE's dev time is spent on the actual spaceships that the game stars.

Whether or not you win the game matters not.  It's if you bought it.
