Listening to the new station ambience the voices have become more discernible but its kinda satirical what is being said as far as i can tell. But i wonder how close we are to having actual advertisements and PSAs when docked? It will probably never happen but the thought did cross my mind šŸ™‚ Can you imagine being docked and all of a sudden your hear an ad for for example Adidas ---

> [@Wesfahrn](#): > > Can you imagine being docked and all of a sudden your hear an ad for for example Adidas That would be hard considering I cut all sounds when I dock and if they display the ads it wouldnā€™t matter since my screen is filled with windows. Why have sound in stations at all anyway? ---

> [@Thikadan\_Waylong](#): > > Why have sound in stations at all anyway? Why have graphics? Or an art department who spent alot of time creating the user experience? To be fair I do listen to music when doing things like incursions/missions but I still have my station sounds just high enough to notice the PSAs. To each their own as I always say. ---

Adidas doesnā€™t exist in New Eden. There are already ads for New Eden-based corporations and services in stations. If CCP added RL ads into their game that we already pay $20 a month for I think there would be a riot. ---

Your idea is simply never going to happenā€¦for two reasonsā€¦ 1. The entire basis of Eve is the closure of the Eve Gate and thus the impossibility of travel or contact with Earth. It would thus be anachronous to be receiving Earth adverts. 2. Eve is set 21,000 years in the future and the entire ambience of stations is based around that. It would once again be anachronous to be receiving adverts from 2023ā€¦in the year 23000. Lore purists would have a riotā€¦and I think rightly so. ---

I donā€™t pay Ā£12.50 a month per account to log in and see adverts for a certain well known fizzy drink or brand of trainers. All my accounts would immediately be closed if that ever happenedā€¦and quite a few would follow suit. CCP know this would happenā€¦which is another reason they would never do it. ---

You just never know what CCP might do. 5-10 more years this might be a thing. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø Or even 20 years from now. I like this question. I get the feeling OP really believed in this question.
