All I really want from WIS is a social area where players can meet and chat in an "in-station" local chat channel, and smoother walking animation.

Long Term:

1. Personalizing the Design and Look of our Captain's Quarters.

2. Rented Fleet Office Space w/ secure chat channel (including secure from general corp chat as well).

3. CEO can personalize Fleet Offcie Space

I guess it's proper place to say "thanks a lot!" to the Incarna "WiS" team for quality of your work despite it's limited to just 4 types of jail cells. Also thanks for announce of blog article on 29th - looking forward to know about future WiS boost.


If nothing else, EVE's avatars are of incredibly high quality, yes.


Which makes even more bleeding to see them locked in a room and doing nothing. Sad

CCP have really painted themselves into a really tight corner. They've spent a lot of time developing a technology, that they then failed to demonstrate effectively. When the Player base got pissed off they started making rash promises to limit the damage, and now their options are horrifically limited.

IMO they need to get a multiplayer environment into the game with one good reason to use it. That would restore a bit of confidence.

Btw thanks to the Team Avatar for not forgetting about the sounds in CQ Big smile
It's quite atmospheric Big smile

in 2007 i've thought it's a sci-fi simulator, not an "e-sports" game. I'm not a teenager, how would i like it much?

Many people in this forum frequently make the statement that WiS will likely end up being effectively a glorified chatroom, but that's just what it should be. At the last fanfest, CCP stated that one of the biggest and most integral parts of eve are the politics and social interaction of players throughout the universe.

WiS should facilitate this, it should be a new dimension that adds depth to these social interactions. Some of the first posts hit the nail on the head "Meeting a nameless business associate in a bar somewhere in the corner of space." Those types of interactions scream the gritty brutality that eve is in space.

CCP should move forward with WiS incrementally, focusing first on getting the social interaction facet into the game as soon as possible. It's nice to add a face to your pod pilot, but it's more to see the faces of the ones you're about to splode in space.

Sorry on the devblog front we got pushed out by the UI blogs. It's all in communities hands now but it is written and will be published ASAP.

Already guessing that, hope they release it tomorrow or else it will be pushed back because of the CSM meeting and weekend. Sad

Publish the blogs when they are ready, they don't need a release shedule. F*cking marketing people...

I figured this was the case. At the moment, UI issues need to be addressed. You don't want people making a stink about a new Incarna devblog when there are immediate issues on the table.
