I would love for there to be more forum threas on the social aspects of the game, the corporation interface, the leaderboards, the battle finder, the mail system, and basically every feature outside of the battles.

I don't have any friends, so I can't comment on the contacts list.

...

Corporation Fits - Instead of having to walk someone through a fit in squad or corp comms (requiring a UVT) it would be nice if a player can see saved corporation fits (again like EVE).


War Barge

The table should provide a view of the map you are about to battle on. I don't know about everyone else but we use the time in the War Barge to go over tactics etc. Having the map to reference sure would be nice.

Good feedback OP, but I have a couple points I disagree on ...

AUGMENTATIONS ... they flag up before they have run out because you can 'stack' the next one once your current one reaches less than 24 hours - working as intended.

I get the feeling that players might want to see a skill tree with a description of the skill and what items it governs given when the skill is highlighted.

Haha...THANK YOU! When I first entered the warbarge, I said to myself: "Man, it'd be cool if that sand table actually showed the terrain and features of the map you are about to play."

I mean, that's why they have sand tables, right?

Just a minor thing but something that always bothered me is that when my chat boxes are minimized it still highlights whatever box I was on last. This prevents me from seeing any new messages or notices on whatever box I was last on, so if I were to minimize the chat box to change some features stuff on my dropsuit and was on my notifications box last I will have no idea if someone in my corp sent me a squad invite because it is still highlighted. Maybe it does flash even when highlighted but if it does the highlight makes it much less notable.
It's a minor issue but why highlight a box that is minimized?

Id like to see alot more features involving finding other players and reaching out. So far it seems like you can be very isolated in an FPS, you join the match, shoot people and leave and onto the next match so you can't really interact while in the game. Of course I know you can talk to people and do squad tactics and hit it off and mail and start a conversation.

But instead of that being the only way, how about

1. Search for squads by Tactics.
Say you are looking for a sniper squad or armored squad, fast attack, hit and run, frotal assault, etc. etc. click that and search for active and available squads practicing that tactic. And also it binds multiple players looking for squads into squads to play together. And you can select preferences like, prefer people with voice modulators, prefer people with 2/1 K/D etc. etc.

2. Search for players around your skill level. Along with the above squad interface request, you can also prefer people who are around your skill level K/D and WP wise.

3. Local chats & finding chats. Instead of just planets, have a local communication relay that lets players with specific interest join certain chat channels, like the Caldari Alliance or even better Chat Channel finder. Have specific tactic chats or recruiitment chats with overflow rooms that allow people to join and say whats up and meet people.
