EVE Information Portal

Have the trial names been cleared out, now that it is the 15th?

Thank you for fixing the bugs :D

I felt like I was heard and understood when the shortcut issue was fixed before the other stuff mhhehehehe ^o^ *delusion?*


Feedback: I think having the "known issues" updated faster would prevent multiple posts of the same issue being posted. Something short and sweet to say, "YOU HAVE BEEN HEARD. WE ARE ON IT <3, we feel ur pain bro now stop posting repeats"

I dunno... but it would keep the issue section smaller and easier to manage than 19 pages D= no? or devs that have access to a single Known issue section so they can update it ohoh and like a vote system for a known issue so u know how many ppl having the issue.... or u prob already have this.....anyways >_>;

Wow, that's ****** up.

Unfortunately, none of the CCP devs appear to be participating recently in that thread, either.

I would suggest that it would be very constructive for each of the devs to spend at least 5-15 minutes each day, responding to at least a few posts by players, particularly regarding issues with the UI changes. Without active forum participation from the devs, there is currently no way for players to know that the devs are actually reading the posts (sorry ISD Ezwal, but just you saying that the devs *are* reading the posts tends to lack sufficient weight). This quickly becomes frustrating, and tends to result in fewer players willing to spend time giving feedback - which is a no-win situation for both CCP and the players.

Sure, the devs can't read everything and fix everything, but, actively participating in the forums at least once per day gives players the feeling that their feedback is actually being read, even if the dev doesn't agree and isn't inclined to change anything.

Note: I have previously suggested adding a feature to forums, which would keep a running count of dev views, per page, or at least per topic, as well as a button which allows devs to quickly post a message like "I've read many of the posts in this topic up to this point - I will take these things under consideration. Thank you!". Simple to implement, yet would greatly improve the dev/player forum relationship.

Not a single acknowledgment on the various issues presented in this thread. OP is not even updated to reflect issues that were fixed, much less issues that have been presented by multiple people.

Under directx 9 the white lines, circles in the Solar System Map look flickering and blurry, while not with directx 11. Same issue with the lines of the Tactical Overlay. ( I have to use dx9 because of significant performance issues since the last patch at dx11, the devil knows why )

Why is this an issue, instead of feedback?

You make it an issue, because you are giving people a hard time.
And you're not realising it. And how you had no idea how to properly test this.


Next: The fading effect.



What bothers me, is the fact that it can be recognised as passing of time.

Hu?

Look.

The occupied mind perceives time as if it was passing slower,
when there is lots of change going on in any given moment.

*(correct is: it processes more change per [unit of time]
increasing the (perceived) amount of things happening during [unit]
creating the illusion of time moving slower. It's complicated.)

The brain loves change. It feeds the pattern machine.
Verify for yourself: sit down and look at a point at the wall. Any wall.
Do not move your point of focus and reduce blinking.

You will notice, that your view is slowly graying out,
which happens when there is *no change being observed for a period of time*.

You can do this with your body and sense of touch. Lay down and do nothing.
Eventually you will stop feeling your arms and legs, assuming you don't move of course,
simply because there was no change happening.


What you do, though, is fade the full screen for making a window pop out more.
A small window on screen forces my brain to process change on the whole screen,
simlly because everything fades around.

There is too much shading going on. I understand that you think that greying out windows
makes them fade into the background more, helping the brain to distuingish between relevant and
irrelevant information ...

... but then you should not CHANGE the infkrmation all the time ...
... because this change gets processed and recognised!

"People will get used to it" is no point here, because that means that they do not recognise it anymore,
but that doesn't change the fact that the change still is being processed every time!

Please know that "Ignorance" is an effort and takes processing time away.
Yes, even as a habit. Selective awareness happens after processing sensory input, not before.

Why the hell do you want to occupy my brain?
I do not appreciate the fact that you overdose my brain with unnecessary stuff to process!

I absolutely understand that not everyone is alike and that there are many people who are not complaining about what I am talking about, but from my perspective it would be way more interesting to mnow why they aren't complaining instead...


Anyhow ... These two changes are backwards.


You are doing it wrong ...
... and that's a huge issue in this context.

When I hover over a tab it stops blinking... I thought this was fixed?

I'm thinking same goes for the right-click menu... it pretty much sees through any window it is infront of.

Found another fun little glitch apparently.

When looking at ships in space, it appears as though you can't see the turrets that are on the ship unless you click the "look at button" for that specific ship. Even when you maneuver the camera really close to a ship, you still can't see if it has guns until you click the "look at" button.

I don't remember this being the case before.
