This thread is a place for me to post little things I would like to see available for EVE Online. They may not be particularly novel, unique, or desired by the development staff but nonetheless I will continue updating this post as ideas come to mind. These are all based on my experience in the game and if they aren’t entirely self-explanatory I am willing to expand on them.
- Features - EVE - Most of these I would pay real money for. -
More cosmic atmosphere would be nice for distant systems. I realize in space you may see the same material on ‘the horizon’ over extreme distances. Still, it would be cool.
Opening fittings stored in fitting management should allow me to right-click and remove items.
Reintroduce the capability to change NPC corporations.
Introduce more inventory management options such as tab-groups. I would like to be able to combine and sell ship/station inventory without having to meticulously select what I am selling or keeping every instance that I return to station.
When acquiring vanity items for character personalization it would be great if they could be licensed and activated to our account for character customization instead of having to be stored in our inventory panel.
More character vanity items and styles. Hair, skin tone, pupils, provocative clothing for females. That sort of stuff.
We need a whole lot more music in the game.
Much like Jump Gates, I would like to be able to turn on automatic repairs when docking where the sum is automatically deducted from my wallet.
I think an expanded AIR Career Campaign would be helpful. Something I’ve noticed as a new pilot with only one account and one character is that nobody seems to understand what it’s like to not know anything about the game. Everyone sort of talks to new pilots as though we should know what to do from the first time any of us have logged in to the universe.
Where are all the intergalactic species? I want to kill space bugs, not only rogue drones.
The Connection Diagnostics on the EVE launcher actually working would be fantastic. It doesn’t do anything. It states it’s collecting data but never completes.
EVE app for smarphones: I fancy it very much when software is cross-platform. Having an App for EVE could be anything useful. Managing my wallet and market information, using the PLEX store, account management, forum access, server status, diagnostics, anything. The more utility, the better. How about being connected to corporate chat channels even when I am not on EVE? A place for polls, feedback, support portals, bug reports, and so on. I think something like this would be well received.
In Wallet, “#LP Corporations” should reflect the number of corps. a player currently holds LP with instead of having ever been introduced to.
Redesign high-slot auto targeting modules, they suck and it would be cool if they didn’t.
Redesign the importance of factions and faction warfare. Incentivize player opportunities for protecting systems between factions for transit, etc. Bring some dynamics and reasons for being able to go between trading hubs instead of only Jita.
Skilling into Social should provide more remote acquisition and completion of missions from agents.
A combat Hotkey for cycling between Target Locked ships.
New first-person layouts or different layouts and aspects for ships. I would have expected different instruments such as radar, scanning panels, maps, and so on to be viewable from the cockpit perspective. Seeing physical knobs and boards would be terrible to have included as it would blind much of the screen but different directional indicators for other objects and vessels and so on are disappointing to not have included.
The ability to change my characters original faction.
The ability to change my characters Corvette.
The ability to delete my Corp. history prior to current Corp.
The ability to change my School Station.
The ability to change my Career Agents list.
The ability to change the size, scale, or layout of my Ship HUD so numbers do not overlap. (The percentage of shield, armor, hull that overlap the camera buttons)
Add a “Reload Any” button above “Overloading Racks.”
Hyper Gates for extremely long distances for alliances. As Caldari+Amarr it would be great to be able to more readily travel between their core systems.
Fix “Cannot Keep (Harvestable Resource) At Range.” This button on the selected item panel above the overview is blank when selecting resources even though I can still use the hotkey. Sometimes I prefer to use the mice and this is inconvenient.
The ability to change the Ship Fitting default inventory category. It opens up to my hangar inventory rather than the ships and it would be more preferable for me to open to the ships inventory.
Add a Ships Log: My thinking on this is like how in Star Trek they have a knowledge database that can be accessed for information about known systems, races, governments, and so on. I think it would be great to have this type of reading material on the lore of EVE and so on.
More to come.
