EVE Online : Captain's Quarters Coming This Summer
In a new EVE Online dev blog, CCP Chiliad has a forward look at the upcoming captain's quarters that will begin the arrival of Incarna. Capatain's quarters are scheduled to hit the public test server later this spring and arrive on Tranquility this summer. The plan is to bring Incarna online in smaller, incremental deployments similar to what was implemented during the Incursion expansion.
Captain's Quarters will offer interactions in the 3D space like slouching on your sofa and clicking an interface on the wall to bring up the planetary interaction (PI) interface, customizing your appearance through a vanity mirror and adjusting your fittings through a holo-model of your ship. There are a couple of very slick, completely new features we're also bringing in but we'll talk about those in greater detail in future dev blogs. These first Captain's Quarters are designed mainly as an entry level capsuleer environment with basic functionality. We are also reworking the new player crash course into an epic arc that works with the Captain's Quarters while also improving on some existing features and content tools beyond Incarna. To fans of Aura we've got some good news. She will make a come-back after losing her voice in the Apocrypha expansion. We can rebuild her.
