I want to feel like when I move from the merc quarters to the war barge that I really transfered my consciousness to a clone in the war barge, and I want to see myself waking up in the my new body and then deployed from a rack of clones. I want to see myself boarding the MCC inside the war barge, and see it descend on the planet. Right now it just feel like I teleport from one place to the next.
An easy way to do this is through loading screens. For example:
MQ to war barge: When you join a battle with the battlefinder, the loading screen can say something like "transferring to a new body inside the war barge"; could also show a diagram of your current clone, and an arrow from your current clone's head to your new clone's head in the war barge, and the arrow acts as a loading meter (when the arrow of your consciousness reaches the head of the new clone, loading is complete). Perhaps an energy tunnel wormhole effect like this (from Stargate) to give a sense of travel.
War barge to MCC/Battle: A Mass Effect 2 style diagram loading screen showing mercs joining the war barge, and the war barge descending down into the planet
pew pew, immersion
I really wish this game was open world so you actually did move around instead of just loading into places. |

Really good post, I have been playing EVE in disabled and low graphics with no effect box's checked and the game is pretty ****. When I finally upped my graphics to high I had a hole different feel of New Eden I was so immersed in the game and felt like I was warping through systems and visiting stars. Made me realize why someone would actually want to capture this system and horde it from other factions.
The same can and has to be applied to Dust we need to remove loading bars, make Dust an open world, bring it in to the New Eden way of things and most importantly keep upping the graphics/pixels only then will I feel and say I am in New Eden.
Please CCP make this game more immersive.

+1 Supporting the idea.
We do need more location awereness, besides showing the system and security status (is that what that number means?!). Without some backup knowledge of the EVE universe, it still doesn't make much sense yet, just random battles, somewhere in space, on some planet. Altho the EVE universe isn't well known for providing information on a platter, loading screens are a nice simple place to start, since they don't match up right now anyway (showing info of skirmish mode while loading an ambush)
- A warping loop loading into the warbarge, showing destination, battle and employer stats and maybe some char stats
- since loading the battle itself doesnt take that long, some nice screen of the battlefield or the warbarge over the planet
- loading back to the merc quarters could be the warping loop (or clone activation animation) again, although having that loading time while viewing the current battle stats would be better
btw, when do we get the ISK destroyed stats, and squad stats at he end of a battle, maybe thats another topic. |
