I still feel really disappointed this never got past the stage of just walking around a room with that teasing door leading to other capsuleers forever being locked. I know it’s not a crucial part of the game in anyway but I felt it added a bit more depth and something fresh to do while spinning in station.
Also I just got me one of these triglavian survival suits (perun one) and it looks sick but it would be awesome to see it in the flesh and not just as my character picture.
So is there any chance of us meeting in stations ever again or is it shelved forever?
These suits are a very nice piece of clothing. Too bad they dont have any function, same with armors But of course Walking In Stations would be needed with some combat areas somewhere in the space. Avatar Exploration like CCP demoed protoype. Then it was all shelved for indefinite amount of time. Basically forever.
In EVE? I dont think so. At least with current EVE management. There is EVE Nova in the works tho, one could argue its still the same world… Informations about it are scarce tho. I have never seen it having any vehicle mode or PvE stuff. So less ambitional than DUST 514.
When they made that monocle $80 they made most the players feel small and poor, but they didn’t want anyone to know so rather than complain about the price they complained about WiS
If that monocle had been $10 we’d be walking in stations today!
The actual answer is yes, there is a chance.
But CCP aren’t going to spend the time without it having a meaningful gameplay impact. And not ‘you have to now walk to see your mission agent’ because that’s just tedious.
So we aren’t going to get bars to sit and drink in just for the sake of having bars.
Personally, if they ever touch this kind of thing again, I’d much rather be able to take a walk within the spaceship and have my crew members make me a sandwich or go inspect the cargohold.
It doesnt even need 1/10 of the money and time Chris spent on Star citizen. Planet environments, base environments, all of it could have already been implemented using the systems everybody have seen in game already. There is this misconception that you have to get rid of loading screens, while you can just replace loading screen with looping animation of a flying ship or walking character or “data transfer” procedure while leaving capsule. There are simple tricks just like with jumping gate from system to system that previously showed just [ LOADING SYSTEM ] screen.
