For those of you who haven't played Eve online in a while and for those of you who think Eve online is a still mining simulator, the following review might help you get up to date to the changes Eve Online has suffered lately, mainly the first Eve Incursion latest expansion.
For those who are not familiar with Eve online, Eve is the most complex Sci-Fi game and MMORPG altogether. Unfortunately, since 2003 when it first got launched until the few last months, Eve online was a game that focused exclusively on space-ships. In other words your avatar, or character was just a simple portrait in the corner of the screen and all you could control was your spaceship or pod.
Many considered this flaw the undoing of Eve, and for many players the lack of an actual player character was a total turn off.
However, as promised by CCP, things have changed and the first part of the huge Incarna expansion has been deployed.

In case you are not familiar with Incarna, it's an upcoming expansion pack that will add full 3D avatars, the ability to walk in station, change the avatars clothes and interact with other players avatars in a fully 3D environment. CCP has decided to deploy this huge expansion step by step, so for now the players are restricted from interacting with each other's 3D avatars.
However, even if it lacks the interaction between players, the first deployment of Incarna look pretty damn cool and now we'll take a look at it in a bit more detail.

All of you nostalgic Eve players, you need not worry. You are still able to view your docked spinning ship, and let me tell you: It's huge! Unfortunately you're not able to spin it anymore. I'd say this is more than a fair price to pay. Now let's get back to the matter at hand.
The firs Incarna expansion consists in what CCP calls "Captain's Quarters" It's basically a room and a hallway that goes to the docking area where you can see your ship. The room is equipped with some cool screens in the wall, a couch to sit on and a few more things. The interesting thing is that there are holograms everywhere that can easily replace the most important aspects of the Neocom (HUD).
The character movement is fluent and you can control it with your WASD buttons or by clicking on the ground. And for the older players who have not yet seen Incarna, don't worry, you can't bunny hop.
