So with games like star citizen and no mans sky where you can seamlessly land on planets and hopefully interact with them, I was wondering if CCP has any plans for the future of PI for Eve? For example beeing able to land on an instanced plot of land on a planet where you have a base (bought on the market) and can actually Watch your planetary colony beeing built in 3d. Something like the walk in stations feature, just a bit more evolved.
Since the engine obviously can handle walking on stations... why not? Would give a whole new dimention to PI and would be perfect for carebears
So does anyone know if there are plans on further developing PI? |

Nope.
Eve ships are constructed from materials that are incredibly unstable in atmospheric(i.e not vacuum) conditions. |

Well then add new ships to the game that only work between stations and planets, having an automatic deorbit/orbit option, click the deorbit button, choose a planetary destination and the ship automaticaly lands on a plot of land on the given planet. |

If you're lucky, PI changes will come within the scope of sovereignty overwork. Other than that, get in the line.

When suggesting this sort of thing, ask yourself 'What functional gameplay will this introduce'
For example, changing PI to be on a per 'district' basis and then presenting the player with several slot based maps they can select which building goes into which slot on, based on size. This then leads onto each map becoming a real Dust map if any battles are fought in that area, because it matches the way Dust generates it's maps, increasing the links between EVE & Dust. As well as opening up options for raids or control fights since things are owned per district, rather than open for all on the same planet.
But if it just adds pretty with no gameplay values like your current suggestion, it won't happen. Even PBR is all about enabling SKINS, which is a form of gameplay due to the market for them, as well as database simplification for all the current skin versions. |

What's "seamlessly"? Is that like a jumpgate? I think SWTOR is what you're after. It has all that stuff in it.
EDIT: Wait. Wait. "Skins is a form of game play...."? Huh? Uh. NVM.
Treason never prospers. What is the reason?
Why, if it prospers, none dare call it "treason."

The only changes I care about for PI would be making it less of a click fest. All the routing is so annoying I don't even feel like setting up new planets.
Oh and it would be nice if planets got a graphical update. They are looking a bit dated. |

Lets see, you have two games that are not even games yet, that have concepts of what might happen.
I'd rather eve be eve and add things hat they can do that will happen. I firmly believe SC is vaporware. Or will bomb. no mans sky.. meh.
CCP had a concept of atmospheric flight in 04, but they could not technically do it from what i remember. This could be worked around with valk and legion, but i'm just going to enjoy eve and have my popcorn ready for the mountain of tears that comes when SC bombs.
OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

What I got from the OP's post:
"I saw these other tech-demos that I hope will eventually have meaningful gameplay elements. Does CCP plan to make the same mistake they made with WiS by introducing another tech demo without gameplay?"
Let's hope not. :)
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

You should had seen how it was when PI got introduced first. Now that was a click fest to behold. Maybe I can find an old tut about it... |

It only has to be suggested in the forums and at least one or two fanbois will take up the standard and lead the charge.

This is a WONDERFUL idea. A planet base. that you can put labs, rprocessors, compressors, hangers, and what not pos shizzle in. You can have a plot where you can mine a mine, and another plot where you can gather moon goodies, wait! there's more, you can find wild, and exotic pets that you can capture, and battle other players with. CCP can call it a "Garrison" or something along those lines. |

The next chapter was supposed to be DUST. Instead it was used to have an effect on something not many people care about beyond farming LP semi-afk in disposable ships. |

Should be something to think about but as we have witness with WiS, the vocal majority says that this game it's about spaceships and not about avatars walking and similar stuff. |

Common misconception. WiS is a misnomer, as it's clearly solely a forum function. If it were an actual part of the game, there would be... something to do with it in the game.
Thus I suggest we rename WiS to something more appropriate.
How about "Posing on online Forums"?

You're funny. You actually believe Star Citizen isn't the greatest gaming scam of all time.
Just remember, you voluntarily gave your money knowing that you had no recourse.

No, we need a Galactic Pokemon.. We go to planets and capture them.. Fedo & Friends.. Then we 'pvp' with our animals in space.
EvE is about money and power... and using skill, deceit and douchebaggery to achieve both.
Let's focus on what EvE is and always was. |

I can think of a dozen things I'd like changed about PI and not a single one of them involves landing on the surface of a planet.
The current PI GUI needs some serious work. Rewiring a factory planet is currently an exercise in tendonitis inducing clickfests. I'd like to be able to launch to a POCO without being in system.
Those are comparatively simple fixes that would have great 'quality of life' benefits.

Well in 2007 some minds at CCP had idea's for the future like SC is selling now, it was even beyond that what SC is creating now or trying. I bet everything SC is building they have ripped of from the forums at S&I. well it sort of feels like it all are idea's from past forum posts at EVE. they talk about VR as well. |

Planetary landings as offered by those new space games are just gimmicks. ED proposed having a procedurally generated galaxy and people ranted and raved about how they'd never get bored of it because of its size, only to get bored with it in a few months. Now the new thing is being able to land on planets, because people still haven't realized that adding more procedurally generated crap isn't going to make the game any more fun in the long run. It's a textbook example of people thinking that they want something and that it's going to be epic fun, but they're going to be horribly bored of it in a very short period of time. It sounds nice, but that's all it really is.
Most people would try the landing feature maybe once if it were implemented into EVE and then it would be forgotten about and it's the sort of gimmick that you offhandedly remark about when telling new players about EVE.
In short, it's too niche and gimmicky. |
