Sorry ...

I can hardly see, after the new patch, when my channels are blinking.
have tried multiple layouts.
The blinking when activity in channels are "gone".,
Please correct :)

General feedback: the ships look like ****, the UI looks like ****, the login screen in particular look like **** since it doesn't obey color scheme choice apparently. Manual controls are a stupid gimmick that will only attract more idiots who want EVE to be Elite, but are surprisingly responsive and seem like they will be useful for bumping or lining up warpins on miners.

The map is amazing. I love it.

Looks like the new GUI is trying to be a 90s game that is in turn attempting to appear futuristic.

I would like an opt out option to use the old GUI.

Edit: I thought that I would start getting used to it. It only gets worse the more I try to do different things. It is like nails on a chalk board getting louder all the time.

Edit 2: The lack of colour on the buttons makes quick selection far less intuitive.

The blink on the chat tabs is far too easy to ignore. I guess I am going to have to default to Intel channels and be less social.

Edit 3: Basic GUI is tiny. They could package both easily.

Yes, the "hologram" optics are a matter of taste. But the old icons... This is a NO GO, every aspiring designer learns in school in the first week. They looked not simply out-dated, they were just bad. Illegible, terrible for usability. Even if it hurts, it's the right thing to trash the old icons... No more confusion.


You see, this is the kind of arrogance that makes ppl hate designers/developers/engineers/whatever. "OMG, how can you not like *change/design/product*?!?! It's awesome becuz *technical reasons lay men don't care about when they are just voicing their opinion*, I learned that in school/at awesome company X/wherever they think it is a big deal. GAWD stop being stupid!". Blink

I know ppl have a tendency to dislike change, but saying they ALWAYS prefer what they are used to is simply not true. The fact that there are ppl here saying they love the new UI alone proves that.

I simply think the UI looks dull and sterile (with the new lighting making a lot of ships look more sterile too). I like colorful and detailed buttons. That's just personal taste however. On a more technical note: in the neocom, you can't make out where one button ends and where the other starts very well.

- The new ship look.

Personal opinion: I don't like how the ships look now. they look, insert role-play here, unrealistic.

They look brandnew, freshly painted plastic molded kits you can buy in a store and glue together.
Pretty sure I ran over Scotty the docking manager a few times in the past, where are the stains his corps left behind on my hull?

Also metal looks, well not like metal. Way to wide opacity, me thinks.


Very well said, they have a 'toyish' look about them now, that was never the case back in the past. The new light rendering might be more realistic from a technical point of view, the end result looking at them is NOT.

I'm sorry but the new UI sucks. I'm partly color blind, and it's confusing as hell for me. Also I really, really HATE that you just see through windows. I liked my overview, selected item etc. black, but now I just see though them no matter what.

Jesus christ, CCP. Why do you do this to me. You screw up things no one has even been complaining about. The old UI was great. Why the change? To make the game look more futuristic, or something like that? It's crap.

My first impression. Not good.

And after 10 minutes of playing, my eyes hurt from it. Thank you CCP.

I won't be able to play this game anymore unless you do something about it.

You can set the transparancy to 0 on the slider... Escape menu.



Yes you can set your transparency to O.... BUT IT WILL STILL BE PARTLY TRANSPARENT!

Something went very wrong with Amarr Tactical Destroyer skill training.

http://puu.sh/dnAiX/ce459b247b.jpg

It is currently at -357,713 / 24,000 and going down at standard speed, So it is slowly resetting I guess?

Also, this happened when lvl2 finished as I was jumping a wormhole.

Whoever designed that blurry color changing piece of crap needs to be fired.
Also the person that approved it !

Seriously, CCP, NOBODY in that company of yours reported in all the weeks of testing that these new "wonderful" UI features are messing with our eyes/heads? Bloody hell.

Also in the news. RIP Vindicator being awesome :(


I felt nauseated after first 30 minutes on live version, wheere I could spend an hour on SiSi without issues. I've now tried to play for an hour and I've vomited once. Not in my head, I mean literal expulsion of stomach contents.

Unless the UI gets all the blinking windown when focused, losing focus and just turning your camera removed, I have to consider stopping.

The problem is that the NeoCom doesn't follow the transparency setting!!! C'mon CCP...

1) New rendering: looks like someone checked the "full bright" box and turned the shiny slider to 100%. You might want to add spinners to all galente ships.

2) The new icons ... I fail to see how thats an improvement in usability.I'm still doing it the old fashioned intuitive way tho. Guess I've got to take design classes first.

New rendering make ships way too shiny… Is there a way to mke them less bling-bling ?

Actually my good ol' Enyo looks like a stainless steel sauce pan. :(
Amarr Carthum Conglomerate Ships are just hideous, its a pain to eyes to dedock in Absolution,
actually in caldari blue environment space its just IGNOBLE !
:((((

Please add a possibility to "uncheck" those rendering options.
