EVE General Discussion

I may be crazy here, but I'll give this one more shot:

Let's make a deal - you pay me $15 a month, and someone will come over to your place for a few hours a week and hit you over the head with a rubber mallet. Doesn't that sound like a fair and reasonable deal?

Stopping to pay for this service will be viewed as unreasonable and overreacting. Oh, and you're not allowed to say anything about the pain either, because of course that would be whining.

If you agree to this arrangement, and endure it for a period of at least 3-6 months, then I will gladly concede all your points (video proof will be required). If you do not accept this agreement, then I expect you to remain silent on this topic from here on, because complaining without experience to back it up is the epitome of whining.



Well, I'm a Babylon 5 fan, and I think taking out the old gate flash was a shame. But what does our respective choice of fandom have to do with the quality of a game mechanic? It's entirely subjective and ignores the real issues at hand.

Also, there has been very little said in this thread lately of PC performance; most of the conversation has been related to either people suffering ill effects from the animation, or those who don't like it and just find it tedious after multiple jumps. Do you have any brilliant solutions for those issues?

i feel like you`re kinda getting where some of us are at. But we just need some sort of reassurance something is being done. CCP haven`t posted for nearly a month and that was just a clean up post :(.

I can also understand that you`ve played for a long time and it`s easy to say CCP usually does things this way.
This CCP way may need to evolve as gamers become more fickle. The F2P model is becoming so popular because gamers are wanting to subscribe less in general.

Dust has to be a huge resource, it simply cannot be cheap. I`m sure Shaun Decker isn`t working for free for a start . This coupled with the new PS4 means that Dust will absorb huge amounts of time and money to stay afloat.

I`m not sure if the game can just be carried over to the PS4 un altered and check out the direct competition that is about to emerge.
BF4 and planetside 2 are just to name a couple.
But anyways some of us are only asking to be able to turn off the animation, or get it looked at. It`s just a request and I can`t see why that offends so many people.[/quote]

its funny becouse from what i hear dust514 isent even compatible with PS4 lawl

Two months after this thing was launched and still no solution in sight. Well, I've got less than two weeks left on my subscription; after that I'm out. As much as I love this game, there's no point continuing to pay for something that I don't get full use of and which causes me physical pain.

But until then, I will still be here making as much noise as I can!

Every now and then, it doesn't render correctly for me, and just shows as white blocks flying through the screen, quite odd.

The point 4 is important.

I don't see how I can motivate friends to play at EvE as I don't know if they won't get sick. I have better things to do than doing damage control after a failed test, and I doubt that they will accept the « just close your eyes or maximize the chat window you weakling » method...

Well, maybe I can advert it that way : EvE, a new way to play video games !

Actually, something has been done.

I'm not sure if you've noticed but the animation now is way less annoying than it was at the beginning. For a start, the camera no longer swings around wildly. It zooms to the gate instead. Also, the flashy tunnel effects are not as gaudy as they were before. And lastly, the animation ends by zooming you onto a cloaked image of your ship -- this helps me (for one) orient. So all in all things are much better than they were a few weeks ago. I appreciate the fact that some players may not be able to live with this new effect. But I started posting on this thread out of an honest incapacity to deal with the most extreme aspect of the effects. That has now been removed. So I'm happy to return to the game.

That said, I hope that everyone's concerns get addressed in due course. I know how much it sucks not to be able to jump between systems comfortably.

Peace.

They have made their choice already.....

It has been over a month since I last logged into eve with either of my accounts....
Soon this one will end as well....

They only want people who HTFU and don't complain about something new and shiny they added for the benefit of all the player base even though the player base never wanted it in the first place.

Now they do the typical CCP response and ignore anyone who tells them otherwise......
We are in the minority and until it really hurts their bottom line this is a low priority issue to them put in the "we will get to it soon" this decade backlog....

They have decided that it is worth losing those small amount of people who physically can't play and concentrate on new features to bring more players in......

ITT playing eve online is literally equivalent to being punched in the face repeatedly.

Thx for the bump

Well after 50 jumps last night please for the love of god give us the ability to turn this off.
