EVE General Discussion

In EVE there are tasks which us players have to go through regularly. Some that are recent, some that have been around since the very beginning. Some of these tasks may have you pull out your hair from frustration. Not all developers actually play and use the systems they design, so they may lack the intuitive insight needed to build a proper system.

I would personally love to have a dev take 200+ corp bpos, lock them down. Then unlock them a few days later. To the brave dev that actually sits down and goes through with this. I will Paypal you money for a pint on me. (Dead serious) *You have to do this as a player, you can't use any of your dev tools. When you're done, I'd like you to share your thoughts on the entire process.


So, what horrible player task would you like to have a Dev experience?

The lockdown system IS a mess. I still can't get some BPOs to unlock. Can't vote as the vote buttons don't exist half the time, so it defaults to no (and have all the roles to ensure I can vote).

UI here isn't 3 screens per BPO per unlock, it's a simple button that says "UNLOCK" (or "LOCK") to send the request vote out.

Please for the love of all things holy get a GUI designer. It's a game not Microsoft Office.

The Setup: You're watching a target warp off to a celestial. There are at least 4 brackets spaced fairly closely together in the direction he has gone, but each one could be distinctly selected by even a moderately palsy-afflicted player.

The Task: Mouse-over the correct bracket and try to pick out the name of it from the now suddenly vertical and *random* list of all brackets in the vicinity.

Not empty quoting.

/the horror....

I can imagine, 5 is bad, 10 must be a nightmare. The whole Science & Industry interface is terrible, and could do with being streamlined.

If I'm trying to warp away from some gate camp, I purposely pick a celestial that fits that criteria for that specific reason. We don't need to make the gate camp easier for the cowards.

I do this, for 102 planets, since a year+

Forget the damn BPO locking, unlocking....

I dare you devs, i double dare you ....To do serious scale invention and tech 2 manufacturing for month. Lets see how fast your corporate issue mouse wears out and how fast you realize it needs fixing ingame too... Bonus points if you also realise how **** current POS and corporate role system is when it comes to securely delegate access...
