CCP Considering Mobile Apps For EVE Online

Posted by Soulskill on from the universe-in-your-pocket dept.

Massively reports on statements from EVE Online developer CCP Games indicating that they'll be working with MIT students to see if they can create mobile applications that will interact with EVE . They specifically mention things like skill trainers, route planners, and transaction viewers, but they leave the door open for other apps as well, saying they are "eager to hear what ideas MIT students might come up with."

    This is oldnews. I think they mentioned wanting cell phone apps for Eve since, well, it launched.

    I think the ideas I heard were: ability to switch skill training without needing to log on, and updating your auctions.

    So, yeah.

    Personally, I'd just love an EVE plugin for Excel. "Ooh, I just killed 2 space pirates! See! Rows AA1 through AA7 confirm it!"
