Idea: The C-Dock

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
While I may not be a fan of ship classes being on the C-store I figured that this would be a good idea.

Have a special docking area in each respective factions home base that has the NX of the ships on the C-store docked for players to be able to view them prior to purchase.

Screen shots are nice and all, but nothing can really beat getting to truly view them in game. So right now the dock would have the USS Imperial in it for example.

I would also think it would be nice to be able to just buy parts of the hull at a lower price (I see way more people using the nacels of the imperial and none of the rest of it than anything else), but that could be another topic I'd imagine.

    I second this. I'll also add what might be easier for the devs is the option to purchase the ship/parts using the ship modification gui.

    Nothing can help you there ... except maybe self destruct.

    For Earth spacedock it could be something like Utopia Planetia I guess (which I know we can't technically have until Mars is in game)

    The important thing would be to make them like the ships in Omega with their name hovering over them so people can find them easier.

    I second this wholeheartedly and also second the idea of it being utopia planitia once that is in-game.

    Any other opinions on this? I know people are having problems in game now, but would hate for this to filter to the back of the forums because of that. Really something I would be interested in seeing.

    I like this idea, infact it be nice if it was a large dock that showed all of the ships so people could get a good look at what they wanted when it came to the next tiered ships. Not just the C Store items.

    Additionally (and I imagine its been mentioned before), a personal shipyard would be nice - The ability see all your accumulated ships parked in one space. Perhaps a runner to fly around them, inspect them - Like in the first episode of Enterprise. [side note: I want that NX-01 ballcap.]
