Regular reminder that I still hate not being able to spin capitals

I still think not being able to spin gives capital ships a good feeling of ā€œthis ship really is huge it cannot even turn within a hangar this largeā€.

But I agree that I would like to see the capital ships from more angles while docked.

The current camera angles feel limiting.

I would say its now more a capital garage then a hangar.

But the capitals ā€žmaterialize ā€œ in there.

So why they need to move at all :wink:

But in terms of visuals.

We got skins and lights and a ship intro.

The normal hangar in a POS has so much to offer.

Starting and landing ships.

Camera flights to the next ship.

You can even see the damn frigates from beneath.

But its not possible to see the butt of my dreads while docked and they oddly materialize. What i find very not fitting into the whole universe

I am very curios how a Titan looks in this garage

Can someone show please.

No?! Someone must have a Titan.

Probably best to contact an Alliance CEO in-game, shouldn’t be a problem for them to send you a couple of screenshots…

Update coming for carriers, but spinning isn’t returning.

I support this post, not only spinning is no more, but the way the camera moves is really annoying.

For those complaining that the ship should be undocked, the problem affects player structures, that have tether. So undocking wouldn’t put said ship at any risk anyway.

Again, thank you all for your contributions to the cause!

Let’s keep making capitals SPIN again! or LKMCSA for a catchy abbreviation.

Yes, i keep forgetting that this is a topic i care a lot about, but i always eventually remember!

I never understand this question by people who do this activity, seems to me if people want to PVP others there’s nothing to stop the activity, could combat always use tweaks somewhere.

Why do people who do PVP think their activity is stifled, you can do this literally anywhere which the small caveat of high sec.

Hey!

Welcome all to the FUTURE! 2026!

The year when CCP notices social media that was created after 2010, and actually gets new and younger people to play.

Also the year when we finallly get the ability to spin capitals again! YAY

I really love the new position capitals are anchored at. But why, why, why this awkward camera movements every time you click or drag the ship? I want to spin my Ark!

Make spinning great again, CCP!

I’m in favour of spinning the camera while docked in a capital ship.

Give us more camera freedom!

I still think not being able to spin capital ships gives a well designed and intuitive impression of the sheer size of those ships, but I don’t see why we cannot use our camera more freely in the open space around docked capital ships.

Hello and welcome to another month of ā€œmake capitals spin again!ā€ or MCSA!

We have some new fans, followers, people, entities that support our cause!

Welcome!

Also welcome to the poor CCP employee who has to see this topic still exists even though they have been denied time to work on it. Sorry!

If words bring no relief, i think we should eventually show up on Fanfest - covered in nothing but purple garbage bags and golden ribbon.

All ships must spin!

I do not think so. I do not actually want to spin my ship but the tiny camera drone that provides the look at the ship. And it would be amazing if I could fly all the way with the camera drone from the front of the ragnarok to its very end

I would pay extra for that! (*)

(*) not really, but that would be awesome!
