EVE Information Portal

I live in a POS in wormhole space and boy, did the new inventory make me angry. Grrrr. I've calmed down enough to talk about it more reasonably.

Here are the main issues:

- Any time one person swaps ships at a Ship Maintenance Array, everyone else who has the inventory window open experiences lag. Significant, client-becomes-unresponsive lag, sometimes causing complete lockup of the client which forces the player to force-close and relaunch that client/character.

- Putting cargo containers within an industrial used to take a few second to position and open all containers. Last night it took me two minutes of waiting on lag to get 17 cans open, in order to deposit a load of robotics to ship out to empire for sale. This right here is a loss of functionality. The lag within a POS with all those other cargos around is highly problematic and leads to frustration of the 'This didn't USED to take this long' sort. So in that regard the new inventory is worse than the old way.

- Every time we leave and then re-enter the POS, we once more experience a wait to access hangars we've already opened. It used to be that there was a delay the first time a character accessed a particular hangar, but after that instance the hangar in question would be accessed within 1-2 seconds. With the new system, we're being forced to load every damn cargo inventory in the POS before we can access the one specific area we want.

Suggested fixes:

A filter for which inventories to load/not load. For instance, I do not want to see the inventory of every single POS gun, every time I enter the POS. Not asking for these, I'm sure, would reduce the access lag for other hangars. In fact, I could also stop loading the POS fuel bay and a bunch of other structures which are anchored but not online. Filtering which inventories to ask for would,. I feel, pretty much solve the big lag issue in the POS.

Opinions are subjective. Statistics are much less subjective. So I'm arguing about priorities for picking up data.

I know there a lot of Drama surrounding the Unified inventory, I am not posting to inflame this. I feel I should say what im dissapointed with in this situation is that the bugs and design flaws on the singularity test server that have been carried directly over to the Tranquility server again. For what ever reason; planing, quality control, something has not worked out and we have another rushed out, half finnished project that has removed a lot of functionality. This is exactly what I wanted to see gone after Incarna.

Thank you for Inferno and im looking forward to more progress. Adrian.

Maybe. But I defend, partially. I like filters, the idea to use one window for everything. And I'm patiently waiting for what I want to see which isn't present yet.
One more thing, those who like something write about it rarely. But those who dislike - write often and more energetically. Forums tend to be mostly used for complaints and flame (with varying degrees of heat ), sad but true.

Gentlemen,
I hate your unified inventory. Granted the previous one was not perfect but I never wasted a lot of playing time fighting windows that closed when I wanted them open and windows that could not be kept open so I could move items from one to the other. If it isn't broke don't mess with it. Even a lowly applications programmer like myself learned that early on. The quickest way to lose a client is too give them something they did not want just because you think it is an improvement.

Your inventory improvement is like the newer window buttons on cars that go all the way up or all the way down everytime you push them for more than a secound when all you wanted was to lower the window a couple inches and catch a breath of air.

Make the old inventory available again please ! and soon or lose my two accounts !
Respectfully yours, Fareldon

I don't speak Russian but this makes more sense to me than people coming here to tell us to get used to it rather than trying to be constructive.

What about :

- rollback the inventory system
- deploy inventory system on test server
- fix inventory system

???

The current state of Eve is annoying (I'm being polite here) .
I didn't even login today .

I'm already looking at other things to do in my regular evening gametime

Unless CCP actually wants less players ...

Seriously. Please just listen to your customers.

We do not want this new inventory system because it is inefficient. Is it pretty? Yes. Is it a pain in the ass? Yes.

Only one of these makes people ragequit.

Apparently you didn't learn the last time you did this about listening to customers...

By the way, who is interested, count all people who have said on this forums they dislike newUI. Then, take it from the number of all english-speaking players. Result will represent those who like newUI. LoL.
Ingore that, just a joke.

IRRELEVANT (the number to argue) !

The Bugs WERE Found and Posted by many over a 6 week time period.

It was done. Even if it were TWO people that found out all the crap, it's still information. You need 30,000 more people typing the same issues ?
