they want to add in player driven black market. so they need to have station only tradeable items, that are not only valuable but that players care about. perhaps your custom designed tournement winning illeagal cross breed, war triceratops (or whatever) is just the thing.

So your April Fools is providing content for Incarna?
Sad but true  Illegal slaverhound fighting arenas, mechanised station transport, betting on racing mounts, sneaking into a wartargets hangar and releasing fedos to ruin their pos fuel supplies etc would have actually provide some Incarna gameplay... |

I want a big Golden Labrador in my Captain's Quarters! Pets would actually be fun! Believe it or not but having that Mabari Hound in Dragon Age 2 reminds me of my old dog. Even though it's meant as a joke, CCP should really consider adding pets for personal quarters! |

If we get kittens, I vote to also add burlap sacks, bricks and barrels of water as content so that we can have fun with those said kittens. |

I'm sure it makes some people nervous, way back in the hidden area's of their minds, that if this were implemented exactly as written (silly as that may be) subscriptions would go through the roof. As far as resisting main stream market pressure, CCP has our back. I'm still a bit shocked to find that I feel a lingering hint of disappointment that this won't happen. I need therapy.  |

Same here, subs would go trough the roof like mad... also starting to feel disapointed that this is only a joke somehow... |

My intial thought was cool, pet fighting = illegal gambling den's etc. My next thought was this is gonna be an interesting threadnaught, then I looked at the date  If they did do it then subs would go through the roof, and the gameplay possibilities would be great, seedy dives, animal fights, hell a cat that's sat on the bed in captains quarters when you log in. |

So this is a feature that would;
Not take away resources from eve spaceships/lag battles as its carbon/incarna tech and associated devs.
Increase the player base particularly in certain neglected demographics which incarna is particularly aimed at.
Increase immersion and add actual content to Incarna.
Provide items players might actually care about (due to emotional attachment/intrinsic value/time taken to create said items) which can only be used in station and would be perfect for developing the black market's you hinted at, at fanfest.
Are coding wise probably not to dissimilar to npc people wandering around which are supposed to be intractable. And in many cases might be simpler to implement.
Does not require participation by those not interested so it expands the options for playing and thus boosts the potential number of play styles and subscribers without putting current players off. (Except certain unnamed players who complain about everything that doesn't totally eliminate 0.0 massive fleet lag ;-) )
I am sure this was intended as an April fools, and it was very well written as such...
But what I want to know is....
Why wouldn't you want to do this?

oh thank god! i seriously didnt know whether to laugh or cry... while the thought of someone's escaped, exo-skeleton-ed and enlarged slaver hound stalking random avatars in station fit right into my view of the ultimate sci-fi simulator... the idea of little furrier-girls on leashes did not! thank you, soundwave, for the wonderful AFD joke! and for making sure it remains a joke!  |
