Yeah can we get a bit more visible gate effect back plz?

The Minmitar gates in particular, from my experience, are really challenging to see if anything just jumped into you if you're not staring directly at it. This affects pretty much the entire Low/Null sec community, and the High sec war/bounty peeps as well.

You now have to pay attention to your overview. Is that too hard?

On your overview is too late.

You could also watch local... I think the effect should not be huge as the old one (giant beam of light), but it needs to be made a bit more distinct.

People keep making PVP/low sec 101 suggestions like these things aren't already being done....... -.-


The gate activation on the receiving side needs to be more visible and audible. A little brighter glow than normal does not do the job. No, it doesn't have to be a bright pillar of light to the high heavens(though that certainly is acceptable given how much actual logistics and energy is going into pulling a ship out of warp within 15k of a set point in space, or catching it), but it needs to be more.

Try SEARCH'ing once in a while and you'd have found this thread still open and my reply which is still the same as it was in every one of these threads:

[QUOTE]"Let me take a stab at this: You're a die-hard gate camper that doesn't notice when ships appear through the stargates because there's no "Flash" or sound anymore meaning you can't Facebook or whatever and only have to pay attention when EVE tells you someone just jumped into the system through the gate you're camping? Am I right?

Effort in = results out. Watch your screen and earn those kills.

EDIT: Is the free intel in Local Chat not enough for you that you need audio and visual cues to get you to look at the screen?

EDIT2: Try posting this up in the Official Odyssey Feedback Thread as well if you want to add your feedback."[QUOTE]

Oh and the title of that thread I linked above: "Bring back gate flash"...wow that was obscure! /sarcasm
