wheres all the ocean worlds?
i didn't play eve for years and delve into eve fluff, just to get the SHIV on water worlds?
wattup with that CCP?
no boats n hos??????
i mean maybe im asking too much for water worlds with water vehicles and water babes in water bikinis
BUT C'MON!!! you cant fluff tease me like this ccp
IT AINT RIGHT!
maybe we can turn the promethius into a submersible dropship!
sure! why cant the floating rock swim too?
and more importantly why dont they have drones for the vehicles?
think about it, drones for your tank? AWESOME!
then maybe those tank solo-ing hobos can all go jump off a bridge

At the moment only temperate lands battles will be able to take place, but I wouldn't put some ocean levels past CCP in later installments. That will probably take a year or more though. |

I actually am in LOVE with this idea. I hope it does turn into a Dust expansion in the future!  |

Boats would be kind of strange. It's the year 25000 or so. Space ships warp around and shoot lasers. We're seriously going to expect submarines and battleships? Would those really be things people use in a world of orbital bombardment and warp drives?
I think, for ocean planets, expecting undersea installations/cities which are either big domed deals or sealed cities like Rapture, from Bioshock, or are very large platforms floating above the ocean, would be more reasonable. If not for the "realism" of it, then because making an environment where nearly everything that currently exists in the game would become useless or require redesign would be a hell of a lot of work for simply accommodating one type of planet. |

You bring up some good points but...Most planets out there are most likely liquid-based (not just water). But I agree, plain naval combat does not make any sense. I think it is just the concept that liquid-based terrains could lead to some neat new ideas for play. I don't think anyone would disagree that dealing with submerged objectives is out of the question, let alone out of the ordinary. OP even said subs, not battleships and the like. I think it could be neat to explore as an idea.  |

Submarines are actually the only boat that makes sense here- stealthy |

Think of it. Dust mercs storm the surface installation and secure he elevators until reinforcements can land and set an assault task force. People move in underwater as well, and a large force breaches through the elevator. You move through the facility, blasting charges and destroying bulkhead doors to flood an area to slow down the enemies trying to chase you through. As you move, you pass through an ornate sea dome (because it is an Amarr facility, and they like their murals). After you secure the access codes for the corporations space docks you begin to fight your way out. As you reach the dome you see a defense force is hammering your men and preventing you from getting to the escape elevators. You look up at the dome and have an idea. You back up to a safer location and pull up the orbital command map. Your target: the dome. But you need a weapon that can reach all the way down to the dome(watch mythbusters. Projectiles won't go very far through water, so it has to be missiles or lasers.) You put in a request and call your troops back just as the accepted notice comes through the enemies stop to rearm and reload, thinking you are taking to much fire and are regrouping to think of a way through. Boom. Buncha dead or dying mercs. The subs and or amphibious troop propelling device move in and you have an evac. And if the OB isn't available: Det packs. |

Oil rig/submerged cities would probably be the way to go. Then on the gaseous or plasma planets (every planet type imaginable can be seeded in low/null sec for PI, therefore we get to fight over them all) you can just have it be inside of a domed city, just change what the sky looks like. Things like that. Of course, then CCP would have an excuse to limit tanks/dropships/jeeps due to not being able to logistically bring them onto the battlefield (only 1 door to the complex, and we breached our way in) |

This is the area where drone control or Good piloting skills come into play. A good drone controller in EVE or Dust could possibly have the ability to get drones into that one door, and we could deploy vehicles with modifies dropships from the MCC. It would limit the number of transports we could bring thanks to size limitations, but at the moment that would not be too bad. |

Boats in the future are not so far fetched no matter how far. I mean then why even have tanks or jeeps when you have ships in space.
I think boats could be useful for ocean planets. It would also be awesome to have subs or underwater parts of those battles.
But CCP has mentioned that depending on the environment you are entering will decide what kinda tactics or ability you will have. obviously you dont want tanks and you want dropships for gas planets for instance. All depends on were you are fighting.
Also dont forget they said we will get something special for wormhole space. |

Where did they say that? |
