Listen carefully what your suit AI says to you as soon as you leave the ship and set foot in the hangar
How coincidental that just today I happened to be in a station with a couple of other commanders, and I thought to myself that it’s so good that we don’t have to put up with other commanders bouncing around like rubber balls all over the place, on the tables, etc. it’s definitely a wise design decision as far as I’m concerned.
That's outposts, OP is talking about stations.Listen carefully what your suit AI says to you as soon as you leave the ship and set foot in the hangar
But I agree that it's probably for the best, at least when other people are around.
Just the usual hand-holding regulations you find in a lot of games.
You enter the usual "base"/"HQ locations in games and a lot of features are limited or blocked.
Can't use weapons, freedom of movement restricted, item usage and such usually restricted.
RDR2 you can't use your weapons at camp, MH: World you can't use items or wield weapon in the town, etc. etc.
The Concourses are just for show, FDev doesn't want CMDRs jumping around and shooting NPCs and flying around the Concourse for whatever reasons they have (I say it's because they're fun police and boring old sticks in the mud.)
Though there are videos of players glitching out and floating around the concourse or using their weapons though they do no damage.
Basically, game developers are no fun and don't like players getting into hijinks and antics

Well the problem is, there is no gravity in stations either, you can't "jump" because "jump" implies a small leap into the air before being brought down by gravity, in a station providing a simulation of gravity by spinning, jumping into the air will just ends up with you flying upwards until you either hit the ceiling or the spin of the station brings you into impact with a part of the concourse moving in your direction. This could be the floor, or it could be a post, windows or anything else.
To maintain immersion if they allowed jumping in concourses FDEV would have to model this behaviour properly, which would be a pain in the space suit for all concerned.
I cannot imagine anything more annoying than players bunny hopping around and unloading their guns willy nilly for the lolz at concourses. I say: Good call.
Also: House rules.

Deep Rock Galactic is pretty good in that way, it's pretty funny actually.
It is already annoying as hell to see other cmdrs run around stations. Everyone should be forced to walk slowly, that is for what the walk option is there. Polite, adult and to take serious cmdrs are walking. I have spoken.
Pfff, look who you're talking to
.At least it wasn't talking to me....Pfff, look who you're talking to
