Jossh news

A News Terminal inside the game itself.

Same concept as Jossh. just in the game itself. And maybe even expand this to player stats, pos locations, and other info we get from jossh today.

And it should be so that players can directly write news on it.

Re: Jossh news

This is long overdue. Not everyone can alt tab out without having issues.

Re: Jossh news

well.. packet loss.. All the alt tabbing i do..

Why not. It can be easily done. Why not just put it in the game.
wouldn't you want to browse trough available poses in sector, (Like jgrot) instead of going on jossh, or checking station inventory while flying.

besides jgrotpro make me lose fps.

Also for the RP. It feels more in character If I hear/read news inside game while playing then reading it on a website while not playing.

Re: Jossh news

Have station terminals that you can read the news in or look up POS in nearby sectors. Much better than drawing more data while in flight and killing frame rates.

Re: Jossh news

What would also be cool is if you could leave mail at a station for a specific pilot when that pilot docked with that station and checked the terminal. And also squad messages as well. We could have a lot of fun with that.

Re: Jossh news

Like it, but lets hope the GM’s will add news content daily thus giving us the dynamic universe that it should be with news and updates surounding current FM’s RP story lines etc, rather than the odd news flash here there and maybe in a fortnights time, if your lucky.

Re: Jossh news

Not too sure about news terminals. But market details of stations and POS inflight would be handy.

Re: Jossh news

In-station PMs, Cash Transfers, Market Lister data, Online data, sector reports (ships in a sector in last cycle listed by faction and resgistry from home-tuned beacon data) would all be extra-cool.

Re: Jossh news

Yeah, simple stuff like that would go a long way to improving immersion and making the political RP more dynamic.
