My extremely valuable input on ambulation is this:
Please drop the entire concept and divert all resources to sort lag in large fleet engagements instead.
Thanks and have a nice day ;)

No matter how many times people try to explain why that won't help, you keep pushing that card, don't you?

Edited by: Dismus on 17/01/2008 18:56:05 Davlin, look at it this way:
Lag free large-scale fleet engagements will effect old, established characters. Given the fact that, to even get in a position to be involved in these engagements, you need to be in a large-scale corp or alliance, operating in low/no-sec space.
Ambulation will effect everyone regardless of how old and established their character is. It will allow people who still live in Empire space because of SP limitations to enjoy the game as well.
Additionally: Requirement for Lag Reduction: Likely server hardware/networking issues or database transaction re-balancing.
Requirement for Ambulation: Code work, further development of a graphical engine (based on code, not server hardware/network topography).
Reducing lag in fleet engagements is most likely going to take work of a different kind. This kind of work isn't nearly as easy as working with code. Especially when you consider that a game like EVE is cruising in completely uncharted waters as far as user counts, etc.

I dont know if its the beer talking, but I just had this great idea for *drumroll*
Station Exterior Design, as in the thing you see in space.
Every race has 3 different-looking stations which contain the standard station services (Docking Bay, Offices, Entertainment spots [Pleasure Hubs, Bars, ...], etc). This said station now has "docks" on the side, which could be "docked" with an advanced station service like a Repairshop or Medical. If a Gallente Station now had Medical Services this could be seen from the outside, due to a Gallente Hospital docked on one of the ports.
The way the Station is assembled will reflect itself to they way the station is portraied on the inside.
What do you think? :> ----

Why won't this thread die?
Go read the material CCP has released. Ambulation is a completely pointless waste of time. It will not be used. I hope it never sees the light of day.
1. Everything you do now will take _longer_ in ambulation. 2. You will still be able to do every thing outside ambulation. 3. There will be nothing new in ambulation except things only usable in ambulation like clothing.
People will try it once or twice and then forget about it because it offers nothing. It will be a ghost town. This is basic game theory. I don't know why they're wasting time on it.

Because somehow they got the idea in their head that being able to leave your ship will get more girls to play the game.
This is my theory anyway. -=^=-

Maybe because at current, the game has no soul, no personality? Maybe some like it that way, but I know I don't.
I'm still going to play EvE if its released or if its not released, so it doesn't matter much to me.

If you seriously think this is the 'best' thing about ambulation, I'd not bother installing the patch when it comes if I were you.
Edit, oh, you're OV, figures I used to shoot you guys all the time in JG :P
I can't imagine I will be installing it to be honest. I really don't get the point in simulating stuff which is better done in real life. Why drink a virtual beer in a virtual bar?
As for shooting us in JG.. well done - you and the rest of the server :)
for the spiret of it... why play a video game with people on a virtual world?! instead of going out and being social?! you can ask that about everything online... soo either your one of the types that likes it or your not I declare war on stupidity |

What about ambulation on SHIPS? I want to be able to walk around my 13 deck 3km long carrier, i want to be able to visit the drone bays, the mess halls, the engine rooms, and of course the bridge.

I promise to buy a pint for every dev if the /dance emote is never seriously considered.
I will buy 2 pints if /dance is implemented

Emphasis on the I.
A lot of people want this. A lot of people will enjoy this. The game is not just about YOU.
If CCP want to make more cash and have an even bigger, more popular game, I hope the EXTEND the concept to within player's own ships, allow people to be invited onto ships and even allow them to ferry players between space stations (like a taxi service). Even better, allow players to view the outside from the inside through windows.
This will attract a whole lot of people who just don't get off on viewing their character as a ship. Personally, I love the idea of playing a human character instead.
Or is the real reason you don't like the idea is that you feel uncomfortable playing a female character. Just thought you'd only be a portrait? Bit off more than you could chew?

How tall will the achura be? Their build suggest jawa height. Though I guess they can be lanky cloner builds too.

Completely and utterly useless. Why do you want to nerf the view of space? Currently you can undock and look at space. It's huge. You can scroll the little mouse wheel and not even see your ship. All you can see is space.
Now you're claiming that limiting this view is a good thing? Take a piece of paper. Cut a hole in it. Tape it to your monitor. Look you have a window. See how nicely your viewing angle is reduced.
You already can see space why are you advocating a reduction in seeing space as an enhancement?

No it won't. You can play as a ship. Or you can sit in a station and do nothing as a human. There's no game in ambulation. Name a single piece of socialization that you will be able to do in ambulation that is not possible currently. There's not a one. I'm sorry that your brain can't process /me waves and that you need a visual rep to figure out what words mean.

sigh if i must.
talk face to face sit down at a bar gamble at a table WALK show off your ship have corp meetings with a big map you can all look at together at the same time.
besides most of this is being made by the other 50 people they are hiring for a different game.

So I'm not the player base which according to you invalidates my view point. Also according to you MotherMoon is not the player base. Thus according to your post MotherMoon's view point is also completely invalid.
What the **** is the point of generating your list? If I can generate an n+1 list will you please go away?

Already done with private convo. Even shows you a picture of the person. No new functionality.
Quote: sit down at a bar
This is identical to #1. No new functionality.
Quote: gamble at a table
Gambling is already done by groups in game.
Quote: WALK
What new functionality does this offer?
Quote: show off your ship
Seriously? There's an undock button on the lower left. When you click it allows anyone in the area to see your ship.
Quote: have corp meetings with a big map you can all look at together at the same time.
People already do this.
Quote: besides most of this is being made by the other 50 people they are hiring for a different game.
So not one single second will be spent by someone on the current team dealing with ambulation? Let those other people have a beta like anyone else. Don't add a useless feature to this game.

I nearly wrote a big long post defending the undisputable excellentness that Ambulation will bring to EVE, but then I realised that it will be self-evident anyway when it comes, and it's definitely coming, so it doesn't really matter what I write here. It's a good thing I realised that, because I don't really have the time to write out a long, drawn-out post right now.

Edited by: Doomed Predator on 23/01/2008 15:13:48 To my knowledge you train skills by downloading information using pod technology. Will you be able to train skills when outside of the pod then?
This is all from a RP point of view (I don't RP but I like that things are logical to some extent).
Now if they make the avatars holograms that would make a lot more sense. Training skills would go as normal and you could explain the walking through other people.

Edit: Whilst you do wlak through people when viewed from someone elses perspective it looks like you are moving round each other. So holograms dont really make sense.

Well if you want to get all RP. Cloning also does not work outside your pod. To leave your pod is to become mortal. Have fun with that. Hope you don't trip and ***** your head on something.
