TL;DW:

  • player will keep limited speed when jumping out of flying ship to EVA
  • we'll be able to partially disable the interaction prompt in 3.23, full disable planned for the future
  • EVA refuel automatic in atmosphere, med-pen like injections (not in 3.23 since no fuel consumption for that release)
  • weight will affect fuel consumption in EVA eventually, not in first implementation
  • "loot all" still available
  • can hold items while EVA
  • ability to "stand" in EVA won't be in 3.23, might come in the future
  • no mag boots for now
  • inner thoughts system stays for dialogs, cockpit interactions slightly updated
  • if you attach yourself to a ship with push-pull mechanic ship should be able to throw you off with enough force applied (possibly, still work in progress since it won't be in 3.23)
  • transitions from EVA to standing position should be pretty smooth and seamless
  • no melee takedowns in EVA for 3.23, just simple jabs and knife slashes
  • no customizable colors for the new interaction system but they are aware of need for accessibility options
  • different suits, armor, backpacks will have different EVA capabilities (not in 3.23)
  • you'll be able to use oxygen to EVA when out of fuel
  • weapons planned to affect EVA in the future
  • using MFDs should be a bit more precise, new focus mode planned for the future
  • attaching to surfaces while in EVA requires a button press, going too fast might play "recovery animation" preventing immediate movement
  • going too fast from EVA to gravity might end up with hitting the deck and dying
  • can still zoom in (hold F + scroll) during EVA
  • EVA really helped with prone movement
  • no changes to jumping out of ships in atmo
  • will be able to EVA inside ships (when gravity's disabled), also planned "hand-hold points" to jump between (not in 3.23)
  • SATA Ball was planned as a test bed for EVA implementation due to lack of PU, now it's just a lore curiosity (might happen one day but no plans for now)
  • parachutes are still planned not being worked on at the moment

Might have missed or mishear some stuff and skipped talk about most frustrating EVA bugs since I was noting things down while doing other stuff, should be most of it though.

This could have been a 5min video. So little answers stretched over so much time.
