multi-crew, avatar creation and ship-launched fighters.

Multi-crew, avatar creation and ship-launched fighters.
Is anyone interested in any of the above or is is going to be like power play.

I like the idea of ship-launched fighters but willl it work ?
Multi-crew and especially avatar creation to me are just a waist of time.

I'm looking forward to these and all the enhancements on the 10-year plan. I am for anything that adds depth to the PvE gameplay.

 

[Redan]

Yes. Extremely interested.

Ship-launched fighters will be glorious, I hope.
Multi-crew will be glorious, I hope.
Avatar creation will be glorious, I hope.

Why do we feel the need to keep asking if people are "interested in upcoming content"? Obviously people are interested.

Only if they add an extra new module to ships careable the fighters. And they should can take a nock, don't wanna have things like f63/iFighter like them flying in the CZ. No threat and just a one-shoot Fly :/

I am looking forward to Multi-crew most especially if it is another player aboard your ship. I bought this game for my wife, alas, she is just not 3d spatially aware. Can't hardly get her ship out of dock. But If I could do the flying while she co-piloted or whatever functions the split out for another player on the same ship. We get to play together again.

Diffulct to tell until I know whats involved really. I will reply back when I get more information.

Going to be another "BIG FAIL" - Multi-Crew tell me why this is not "STUPID"...

Ok - your going to take up space now with an AI Fighter - programed by Dev. Team (Save me from more STUPID)...

AVATAR - Really - we can not even get to skin our own Ships (I can do a better paint job)...

 

[aRJay]

Yes (depending on how it works/NPC crew etc.), yes (even more so when we can leave our ships/SRVs) and somewhat (might be more interested with more budget available to me).

Looking forward to multi-crew to play with some RL mates who also play ED. Will be a limited percentage of my playtime though. Very much looking forward to the F63: just flying the ships is what I love most in ED, and tiny fighters are awesome to fly. Avatar Creator is fun from an RP perspective (here's hoping they can approximate how EvE does it!), and pretty much needed for walking around anyway (S3 anyone?), seriously dont want the galaxy to be populated by six inbred NPCs and their clones as in X:R.

I can't wait to make my own CMDR. Ship launched fighters... I'm not sure about that one. I just wait and see.

As I read it you would have the option of flying the fighter yourself leaving an AI/NPC flying your ship for you, and baring in mind how hard I find some of the NPC ships I don't see a huge problem.

I'm looking forward to multicrew especially, but if the gameplay is the same I will tell my friends to not buy de expansion.

The gameplay is absurdly trivial ATM.

I can only imagine my NPC cutter with 0 power management issues.

Just hop in the fighter and watch it take on a wing of Vulures and an anaconda with ease...;-P

Looking forward to all of these. Ship launched fighters is the most interesting followed by multi crew. Curious as to how it is all going to be handled though.

Well for a start if you have friends it's a great addition, next to planetary landing, multi crew has been the one thing I've been waiting for. Building a second VR rig so my mates can fly with me, heck even my girlfriend has been going on for a year about being able to cruise around with me inside the ship in Virtual reality. It's going to be frikin epic having my friends on board these ships with me & flying fighters. AI controlled fighters are just a bonus.

Looking forward to multi-crew. Used to play a lot of multi-crew flight combat in Planetside 2.

Multi-crew....I have no gamer friends and my wife could care less
Avatar....ok I guess
Ship launched fighters...very interested if NPC....refer to answer 1 if dependent on a mate to fly the fighter.

Well, without knowing how they are going to implement this, I can't tell you for certain how it will not be stupid.

I can tell you that this is the number one feature to which my friends and I are looking forward. We tried playing in wings, but that was boring after a while. Also, we had sync problems. Skill level/play time varies greatly. Once this is live, all my friends can pile on one of my ships instead of their own, since I have a lot of big ships. In fact, half of the ones I want to play with are not playing right now; they will come back when this feature goes live (assuming it works well).

Personally, I think it's stupid that I can fly ships the size of an Anaconda, Corvette, and Cutter all by myself as easily as a sidewinder. If extra people add nothing to the ships performance, why add all the extra stations?

 

[Notwyn]

As a primarily Solo player all three are... meh.

Others probably will enjoy them. We shall see.

In any case the forums will be a fun read for a week or two after.

Ship launched fighters piloted by the current AI will just cost you money as they'll get shot down all the time, avatars are pointless until you can leave your seat and wander around.

Multi-crew may get some use though, i have mates that don't play much but may well be more interested once we can get three of us in the same ship, at which point if you use the head look feature the avatars in seats are kind of OK.
