  • unfortunately hundreds of thousands want this, and hey, u dont HAVE to walk around, so dw

  • This is going to be AWESOME!!! I'm excited. Can't wait !

  • imagine if someone colored their ship pink, then it would take the seriousness from the game :P

  • well, if they keep the colors regulated and metalic then it wont be too bad.

  • Coming from a game like Wow.....and seeing EvE...plus this.....it's just amazing....no words...hats of to the producers and developers.Awesome content and i will defenetly make Eve my favourite MMO.

  • im waiting till i can run up behind my alliance exec and stab him in the eye

  • This is awsome as it will allow for you to see more then just what is on the surface, obviously if you do not want to experience it then dont lol *period* but this will be great to way for long term players to not get bored. This is only a graphics and interactive expansion..so if you dont like it then sorry but your boring anyways lol so just go play with sticks or something..idk how you boring people operate.

  • omg longest video ever

  • i wonder ... what's the point ? Why would one build a bar or walk the station ? It looks cool, ok, but will get boring after a while. Would you be able to improve you character ? Earn big money ?

  • dude, there's the possibility to have your office there so noobs exploring sign to your corp. Cool :D

  • Don't enter stations then =)

  • Apparantly so.

    Also alota people find themselves docked up waiting for long periods of times if its waiting for fleets to form or reprocessing minerals.

    having something other than your ship to look at would be cool

  • lol.

    they should make casinos in the stations

  • Yeah it may get boring after a while.... But so does everything eventually and I think theres gonna be crafting mechinics and ways to make money so its not so pointless just for a different kind of player... LIke why there making dust as a FPS =P

  • I think the music is called, Seven Clans

  • whats the song at beggining

    ???

  • skins....now that wouldbe awsome to have different camos for the diferent systems.

  • Hey CCP, you should have light skins for your ship. like military camo or blood, thatll be cool :D

  • wonder what they are gonna put inside the station.....a bar sounds cool :P

  • but ya i am fortunate that i noticed that :p

  • right, i would say that the pod looks better than it did before. way better

  • omg fuck mining im gona invest in a bar :D

  • lol same here

  • omfg I can finally kick my agent in the nuts for the low mission rewards!

  • man, cant wait for this, they already made the pod look sweeter in the last patch.

  • lol i see you have been unfortunate enoguh to see that

  • Holy crap this is awesome stuff!!!!!! I have to point out during the strategy mini-game a joke he told that went over the crowds held about linking the computer AI together.

    I hope fans push HARD for being able to goto your hanger to look at your ship. It would definately be worth it, maybe they could even let you have custom hangors!!!

    Space stations shops and NPC's have wicked potential. I just hope they don't EVER become part of your missions.

  • its funny that he says who don't you work in a bank that's where the good money is. Well not any more... :D

  • LOL no shit huh? bet all his friends that told him that are all unemployed.

  • He definitely needs a translater to normal english language. And that noise when he talks is disgusting :(

  • new update coming tomorrow

  • Ok so i have been with eve for a while but i am just now watching the 2008 fan fest when iis walk in stasions coming out cause i mightbe able to make money fast off 1 and if i own a pos will it be able to be walk in and will i be able to rent things out to people like the little slots that the bar was in and do i get to keep 20% or any money from the little bord games that u can bet in since it is my stasion?????

  • Wow.... I wonder when the plan on implimenting this feature

  • Winter expansion is supposed to be

  • Soon (tm).

  • thats blizzard, not ccp lol

  • Of course the news would be scope :p

    lol Ima file a petition

    And imagine what the promenade in Jita will look like

  • this better fucking happen, I don't like the current combat (or at least in missions I don't, pvp is fine)

  • Brilliant.

    I've been waiting years for WiS and while it's STILL late :) I'm sure it will make this MMORPG the most excitingly REALISTIC simulator out.

  • Realstic in what way? I would like to know how Walking in a station is going to improve possibly the best mmo on the market? Now I think it will be cool but what if you see a WT in the station? I mean could you run back to your ship and get away?

  • 32:02 is why we dont have walking in stations yet. We dont want to have floating heads and necks around.

  • eve, being the best mmo on the market, sways toward the technical vice the wow-like simplistic necessities which any moron could understand. eve's community reflects a mature nature. while in wow u frequently deal with immature/juvenile individuals.

  • yes. "LOL i stole ur can" very mature behaviour.

  • get to the fucking point shit

  • station walking fable this video is 1year old and we are 1 year further and its still not out... good job ccp

  • They're perfecting it dude. CCP is never releasing anything into EVE Online without it being absolutely perfect, cause they dont ever want the players to get bored of anything they add

  • Except when they patch and it breaks shit. Rember the jump bug 2 patches ago that was dumb

  • While I want that to be true, with every expansion there been like less then three days before patch 1.02 is released.

  • Right.... Is this why they released Moon mining with the bug to earn trillians of ISK?

  • lol i dont know why or how that happened though. I just know that they perfect stuff, not only bugs and everything, but for every new function to be fun and enjoyable, and for them not having to add 100s of patches afterwards of small functions they "forgot" to put in..

  • FYI - walking in stations are a concept... nothing else...

    How many years haven't they talked about it ?

    It will be a little like Duke nukem forever

    ''It will be done, when it's done''

  • More developers should take their example. You already pay to play the game, so to me it's absurd to pay EXTRA for content that I already pay for. That would only make sense for a non-subscription game.

  • Haha well Idk about Fighting in stations Blade but walking in ships would be really cool

  • @Fighting in stations: The concept wouldn't be entirely hard to fix. I mean, shit, who says that you always have to die when you get into a fight? You don't need to use your clone, you know? You could use medical stations that people go to, a jail of some kind of attackers, the like. Personally I like the idea of being able to knock someone square in the jaw while you walk around.

    @Walking in stations: Fucking win, but what if I one upped you? Walking in your ship. First person cockpit view.

  • @Fighting in Stations: Yeah, i was thinking about how they would do the death penalty of dying during that, would be the equivalent of being podded most likely.

    @Walking in Stations: That would be awesome, something like Clear skies.

  • better they take their time with it and be free than releasing it immediately with tons of bugs and costing a ton of money.

  • all of there expansions are free...they have NEVER charged for expansions...and hopefully they will never change that...its the reason we all love EvE so much.

  • They're putting way too much into this feature when they could be doing more for the actual game.

  • Cant Wait!! looks sweet! buggy but Once all done will be so badass

  • sorry guys but this is not coming in the winter. they have released devblogs about that. so now we just have to wait

  • can you link that for me?

  • sorry 12 months, end of this year fall 2009 this will be out

  • when will this Come?

  • within the next few months

  • I heard expansions are free if you have the retail box.

  • They dont create expansions in the traditional sense. Every once in a while CCP releases a major upgrade to the game (new graphics, new gameplay etc). These upgrades each have individual names and are referred to as Expansion. They are, as you say, free :).

  • You heared wrong then, the expansions ALLWAYS are free, you only pay the subscription fee.

  • yep

  • yes.

  • Expansions are always free, retail box is mostly for the limited edition ship that comes with it.

  • btw i just wanna say that I'm impressed by eve online in that they are always updating it and adding new features in the making. nowadays quality mmorpg's like this is rare .

  • can't wait for this release

  • Tht mini-game looks fun =]

  • yes, but SWG did it (with low graphics)

  • how the hell did u get a 1hour vid on youtube :O

  • thats exactly what i was thinking

  • CCPGAMES is the official utube account for eve online (duh) and they are prob a 'utube partner' or something similiar to that which means that they get to upload longer vids than us regular nubs. =)

  • Just change your account to DIRECTOR and you can...

  • now we just need "walking on planets" lol :-D

  • these people seems to have trouble talking

  • im guessing english isnt their native tongue but he was doing ok for that

  • Eve-Online is based out of Iceland.

  • CCP is based out of iceland, the servers are in london.

  • yep

  • Damn radiosity rocks.

  • sweet if EVE wasn't already as time consuming as WoW, lets throw in a little mini game based off of Daisenryaku........

    but i like it, :D

  • I think the part around 29:10 is funny

  • Immediately I can see a problem with this feature and it's name is Jita Moon 4 - Caldari Navy Assembly Plant.

  • That's probably why they haven't launched the update yet xD

    Cheers;

    nick

  • WOW OMG COOL

  • the walking is goin to get old there needs to be a run option

  • People running all the time all over the place would completely ruin the feeling of immersion.

  • dont run then. walk

  • I don't think you can run, that was one of the things CCP was worried about.

  • I know, I was telling someone else.

  • wow this looks so fucking amazing, im sure so many people who didnt like the idea of being in a ship 24/7 but liking the theme and scale migrating to this game

  • I reckon that with the new walking in stations thing, There should be a med bay and when you go to plug in implants theres lots of mechanics and you get strapped in. I also think that this should be in First person view as you should have a cool Eyepeice that pops down from the top of the screen and then have lots of information, Then when you wanted to look at the market or fit your ship, A big transparent green screen comes from the left to the right. That would make it more Roleplay realistic

  • So *now* I know why I got all these exotic dancers, militias, food and milk as mission loot

  • I was thinking the exact same thing.

  • I finally have a use for my 10K of exotic dancers!

  • haha, nice.

  • i had a game glitch and it gave me 20 instead of 10 militants for a mission, lolz

  • not a glitch ;)

  • Happens all the time, so no not a glitch :)

  • 29:18 Rofl. blasted Scoty!!!

  • It isn't "stupid." It is a hellish lot of work for not much, but it makes the whole thing both more attractive to the most reluctant players (aka those who don't imagine a mmo where you have no "body") and more consistent on every level. Besides everyone sometimes want to just sit there and look pretty.

  • and don't forget to mention the 'evil lair'/'secret meetings' factor that you can have with a corporate office.

    I can see corporate meeting being held in a boardroom, with the CEO at the head of the table.

    Everyone has their cool characteristics and clothing and afterwards you're gonna get a cold beer and play a game in the bar.

    Sounds great.

  • yeah thats a good idead for corporate meetings and ops briefing rooms ect.

  • They'd have to add a feature where theres like rooms with security and only the corp directors can say who's able to get inside...

  • the issue with fighting in stations is there will be no safe haven no matter where you go and 90% of EvE will be docked up and fighting where the game is meant to take place in space not a station

  • As long as they don't allow in-game fighting I like the idea. If anyone wants that, CCP should create a new game, where you import an EVE online char to a first person MMO, instead.

  • the graphics in eve are amazing. it perfectly harnesses the feeling of space.

  • id like to see fighting in the stations too, but with concord stopping anyone from dying inside a station. otherwise, a player whos been on for 2 years gets shot in the head by a player whos been on for 2 minutes... thats kind of dumb

  • maybe you could have some kind attack option in low-sec/0.0 stations ;O

  • good idea. i think the lower the sec, the seedier the station should be too. like a 1.0 station would be all nice and clean, a 0.5 would be a little dirtier, and a 0.0 sec station would be the kind of place you wouldnt bring children...

  • That depends... if a station of kenzoku or Goonswarm looks horrible, where will they make meetings and stuff?

    cheers,

    Nick

  • maybee but with the option of being taken too a med bay or summin, instead of dieing and loosing all ur inplants without being to fight like you would outside a stion.

  • A station is a station, there's a station owner, so there should be police and law enforcement.

    No in station fighting imho, unless with heavy penalties, a.k.a. prison :)

    We don't need a first person shooter attached to EVE (I bet there are other MMOs around if you like that), we just need something different from what we can do in space.

  • I think the prison idea would be a great idea. If you got sent to prison, your character would not gain skill points for that time, or something along those lines.

    Of course they won't put fighting into stations. As this clip shows, it will just be an interactive version of what stations already are. My point was basically that a blaster fight in a station would be absolutely badass... of course with severe penalties.

  • it would be amazing dude, i'm thinking mass efect, i hope u can explore planets too

  • i wish they would put this in already... theyve been talking about it forever

  • this is gonna be a huge ass patch or client probably

  • god this game is getting better by the month

  • It's always been like that, that's why EVE = greatest MMO to date.

  • when it does come out i wonder if its going to be another client or its going to be a huge patch!

  • but about the fighting element, i hope pple can randomly start a bar fight for no reason, that would be hysterical

  • David Braben IS working on Elite 4 !!!

  • Did he say Battlestar Galactica? ;)

    I anticipate this enviroment with great pleasure, but I realise it takes time to get it polished, as all good things do. SO yes, CCP rock on, and keep delivering great things.

  • they said you could test the voice changer at the fanfest... how well does it work?

  • When is this scheduled for release?

  • can you play chess in the station ?

  • You might, but it'd most likely be an EVE version. I don't think they've given a list of games yet.

  • i think u will be able to play EVE in the station so in RL u'll be playing a guy playing EVE lawlz =P

  • sounds just like, world of world of warcraft :P

    I know I'm gonna have my own strip joint! Anyone up for a lap dance? It costs big ISK to get into the private rooms.

    An Idea would also be that you Hire NPC's to play the stratagigames... for money. So players can come in and gamble (obviously put limits on it) have the difficulty level of the bot on display (harder bots would also cost more to hire)

  • That hexagonal game they play is just an EVE version of "Slay" which you can still download. A great strategy game!

  • poker, stratagy games, small item quest and bars? man i hope the drinks and smokes are consumable and we can see our guy drink and stuff. maybe sit at a table or bar and relax. though i am worried about how much buying a drink would be, cause if it cost 3 mil ISK to get a budwiser i'm leaving that bar

  • actualy another thought crossed my mind. you know how they been thinknig of trying the player houseing in EVE like in other games like PSU or FFXI or something? why not just use those rooms we get in the stations there? we can give it a new color, a table here, small ship models and guns hanging off the wall. some ore on the table and a potted plant and some paintings of other planets or space or that asshole's head that shot my ass. :D

  • hehehe yeah^^

  • Love the opening

  • I hope this doesn't jack up the hardware reqs for Eve.

  • It probably won't. It'll make the game a heavier file, which would boost the RAM and disc space reqs, but nothing else should change much

  • It also seems like people would use the stations as an outlet when they are bored. Also with as many stations as there are in the game it seems like most would be completely empty.

  • like you could by rooms and fill it with all sorts of shit you find if it would also let you beam down onto planets and like beds for health and baths for health and strength

  • It's EVE, not the Sims.

  • Nice way to disagree with my opinion troll

  • 45:00

  • NOooooooooooo, i can't play eve anymore cause i don't have 2 pixel shader. The apocraphy expansion killed my eve life until i can get a new computer which is going to cost me hundreds of dollars. Funny thing i am doing in order to play eve oinlinem spending hundreds just to play it. LOL

  • No, you can buy a video card that supports the 2 pixel shader for under $60.

  • i kno me either :(

  • CCP said they would be dropping support for pixel shader 1 WAY before they did it, so you should have known...

  • I'm a bit sceptical towards the whole concept. But if they add gambling applications and suchlike it could be fun. You could add content for smuggling and suchlike aswell.

  • Well what i know they are adding poker etc in bars atleast :P where you can use isk as bet etc.

  • I really like the look and feel of the station environment, but I couldnt help but notice that it seemed empty. I would think something as large as a station would have many people living in it most of which would probably not know how to fly a space ship but rather be the people who live and work in the station. I would hope we would get to see such characters roaming the stations halls to add interest. Maybe enough interest so that "people watching" could be something you can enjoy in eve too.

  • By that I mean have npcs going around doing thier jobs. Like janitors, security guards, maybe the occasional off duty ship mechanic visting the bar, ect. But more than that too. Maybe make it so certain unexpected events can happen... Maybe a janitor forgets to leave a wet floor sign over an area he has mopped and some one slips, or maybe a drunken bar patron stirrs up trouble and the security guard has to step in and handle it... these things can happen at random to add interest to station life

  • Would be awesome.

  • They should make it so you can directly speak to agents while in station, sort of like quest NPCs on WoW

  • Well, this will give ppl things to do while station camped, besides staring at their ship. I like the idea of player made NPCs / missions, a lot of the game's recent history is 100% player made, why not? Only problem is that it could get a little MUCK-y / Second Life-y.

    Gambling for ISK, people already do this, might as well legitimize it and bring it in game. Mini games sound cool too, if nothing else it'll give the developers & players a chance to work on something less stressful.

  • good god, any resemblance of eve to second life would be the death of eve.

  • Well, customizable environments and user generated content isn't a bad thing, as long as there's thematic limits that allow you to avoid the particular kind of "social disease" ridden type or ppl that gives SL a bad rap.

    In other words, I doubt we'll have a problem w/ "#@%^ing furries ruining everythng" or "dong cannons" or"bouncing multiplying "jell-owned" cubes in eve.

    But then again, only time will tell. :^/

  • Yea, ingame blackjack npc dealers (pherhaps corporation owned) and poker tournaments would be awesome.

  • I guess i AM going to give a shit.

  • Comment removed

  • Alright the graphics are great but what about the added gameplay? If they dont focus on this aspect these beautiful station-walking areas will be underused.

    Who needs station walking in terms of gameplay? Social meeting places are alright, but it doesnt cut it : it's not enough at all. There has to be a shitload of gameplay usefulness to all that jazz or it will fail.

  • oh man corp offices won't be limited to a paragraph of description and a "join now!" button anymore. This is actually really freaking awesome to me.

  • I love it how people simply still believe that WiS is planned for release in March. WiS doesn't have a release date yet. Devs are HOPING for winter 2009, but that's no guarantees.

  • Yea, but it'd be nice if WIS was in Apocrypha. Hehe, one can dream. :) Better for CCP to take their time though. Just like with everything they do.
