I can tell you first hand WIS is would be Sh!t. Eve is a space ship game first and foremost, leave it as is.
Eve is not a space ship game, eve is actually about electricity, without electricity you can't do anything in eve, ergo eve is not a space ship game but a game about electricity.
Nice avatar by the way... Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction... |

Sigh...doesn't anyone realize that as a POD pilot that to control your ship you must be in the POD. How exactly do you expect to walk around the ship as it is in space? No one reads about this game's foundations anymore do they? I mean if you are truly a role player then this idea should make you ill. On second thought, go ahead and walk around your ship; but, when you get blown up then it's game over for you. That character is well and truly dead forever. Dying shouldn't be too hard as you'll have almost no control over your ship or its systems without being in the freaking pod. Enjoy your new EvE experience!
according to the lore you have a pod gantry just behind the bridge. You can walk about and interact with the crew but it is dangerous as you and only you provide the command and control systems for the entire ship meaning that the ship is out of control for as long as you are out of the pod and you are also vulnerable to a disgruntled crewman sticking a knife in your back. Only an idiot of a capsuleer would do it. But for ship inspections in hanger I have no problem with it which I think is what Alistair had in mind.
This is Eve not star trek or wing commander. This is Eve and everybody understands that, so in other words don't jump to conclusions and put words in the mouths of others in order to derail a thread. Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction... |

But real gameplay, like boarding ships, using powersuits and MTACs for real in incursions rushing some sansha station docking ring, EVA in exploration sites or a whole new profession (Doctor/Coroner) where people coupld bring you a corpse and (with enough skill and some luck) extract the implants and hardwirings/enhancement from it and resell them. Well I could sure as hell dig that.
But the whole "it will lets us be social and go to a bar and where different clothes" and crap, you can keep that noise. EVE is a spaceship game, the only things that should ever be added to it are things that directly enhance the spaceship aspect. Period.
That's my vision for WIS too, eve is brutal and dystopian, capsuleers are not social animals, but ruthless machines of war that will use any tool possible to complete their goals. Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction... |

to be fair he didn't say that eve was going anywhere. I'll remind you that until we had the nex/pay to win riots Eve was the original star citizen.
Can you imagine how huge eve would be right now, if that had been allowed to develop?

As I was basing my response on the above quoted line by the OP (emphasis mine), perhaps it is you that are putting words into the mouths of others.
apologies, I am not a native english speaker I missed that in translation.

Nice features in that sc vid linked on you tube such as carrying passengers and operating cruise liners. CCP need to start concentrating on their core game again, though I don't doubt that the demographic of gamers will be different, but I want everything that sc offers to be in eve so that we can exploit and abuse our fellow players in new and interesting ways.

Well one would think the link that uploads your mind upon death to the new clone, would be maintained wirelessly through the entire ship? They have the technology? When you are engaged in combat you are automatically exited to the regular view. So you can respond.
That's not how it works according to the lore. The pod protects you and houses the neural scanner which is too big to be implanted in your body, plus external scanners can go off at the wrong time which is why they are rigged to go off on hull breech of the pod as this clearly means you are about to die.
The lore must be respected otherwise eve will lose its Sci fi integrity. Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction... |
