Player Features and Ideas Discussion

V3+ and dx11 very bad idea at least for now...... and besides eve graphics looks great.

If anyone plays eve for the graphic there's seriously something very wrong with him. They should focus on improving gameplay and fixing the things the are not working in game.

Changing the graphics won't make eve a better game..it will only make them lose subscribers that won`t want to spend 300 400 bucks to upgrade they`re pc just for 1 game.

Really brings up the question of if CCP gives a **** what their customers think or not. Every game since I can remember (on the computer) has had an option to remove effects such as these dust clouds. They make the areas difficult to operate in due to the major fps lag. Makes you wonder if the art team even plays the game.

Hi there, i am new to this game and if i did realize this Cloud-Issues during my 14day trial, i wouldn't have subscribed to this game, because it's ridiculous that many games with far better graphics perform better on my machine. As an Amateur-Astronomer i can attest, that in real space if you're in a gas cloud or nebula in most cases you wouldn't even realize that you're in one, because the gas is spread loose over billions of km.

The famous pictures from Hubble and other big Telescopes are photographicaly exposed over many minutes, even hours and made in combination with narrowband optical filters. Our eyes would never see real space like in the Eve-Comic-Style-Universe. Beside of this, physical behavior of ships are also completely unreal, but hey, it's a game...

To make long things short: Would be nice to get rid of these damn Clouds and an "Realistic Space"- Option would be great. Please fix this issue CCP or leave at least a concrete Statement.


P.S. Sorry for my english, i am not a native speaker

Those clouds are killers, and completely useless.
Please add an option to disable just the clouds. They are game killers.

cause it depends on which system you are in.

if i recall correctly what was brought up a few updates ago, they stated that the dominant color of a system, due to it's sun type, would reflect on shaders, thus on ships making it glows different colours according to system

another thing impacting this is the dominant nebulae around specific area of the 4 main empires, and when you go far from them, the brightness is diminished, so low is darker than high, and null even darker, since farther from said nebulae.

this is also true for the eve music, which is supposed to go "darker" as you decrease system SS.

in a word, high sec is happy-happy ville(aka carebear land filled with flyin unicorns), bright with happy music, and null is dark dangerous oppressive forest were bad guys live, at least according to CCP view when revamping the ambiant beaviour of systems, and anything between is gradiant to that

Signed.

Not only do they hurt performance, but they're also kind of dumb.

It's space. You're not going to find free-floating pockets of gasses isolated in the middle of nothing.

Remove the clouds. In the name of science.

+1 Please.

Anoms, sigs, and quite a few missions have very blinding effects that overall degrade from, instead of enhance our experience.

Please let us play eve without sunglasses.

Yes, clouds can be a pain.

I can run THREE clients on full settings and keep 60 FPS when not in clouds. ONE client on low settings in a cloud heavy mission/anom/plex (last pocket in Recon 1 is one of the worst due to density) and I drop to 20-30 FPS and my GTX 570 spins up to 99% utilization. 2 or more characters in a cloud pocket is completely unplayable. It isn't my system, it is the clouds. Fix it CCP, let us disable them or stop ignoring the damned issue that has been complained about for years.
