In response to http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/opportunities-abound-the-new-player-experience/

I went on SISI and created a new character. The opportunities look great!

My only comment
On the market opportunity I would like to see a few words about right clicking to buy something, since most players might place a buy order which isn't what a new player would need to use.

"Use right click menu, Buy This."


Also since a new toon only has 5k isk most items on the market are way over that. It might be good to mention to search for something with the search string "civilian". Also this could be another opportunity under the Market.

Thanks

Also the shooting thing doesn't recognise weapon activation of other weapons than civilian guns in noob ship. If a new player already reshiped he will be unable to complete this. I tried torpedo launcher II, but haven't tried anything else.

Imho the amount of notifications you get when doing opportunities is absurdly insane.

You remember these stupid achievements like "Boot up the game! Here is an achievement for you", well, with them doing the notification noise every five second when your do the first opportunities, that's the feeling it gives. Because of the spam.

Maybe you should only tie full opportunities categories completion to the notification system, not every single piece of opportunity.

Apart from that it looks cool! Still thing it needs more rewards though. When you get to the point where you need to buy something off the market (or even after when you need to buy a skill), you realize how empty handed you are after everything you've done ^^'

Finally, I'd like to ask: What's up with the "show all opportunities" button? Its literally everywhere!

Please tell me there will be an option to disable these without having to actually do them all. It's a cool thing for new players, but I don't need to be reminded that I could in theory shoot at asteroids if I chose to do so. And that 4th tiny little box next to solar system, auto-pilot and agent missions - that's also disturbing.

Maybe these could auto-hide after your character reached a certain age and never show up anymore?

Curently, there are only opportnities for new players. But they might add more in the future.

Wouldn't it be great if some opporunities would pop out from time to time that you can complete then? in that case it wouldn't make sense to hide them after a certain age.

They could run some events etc through the opportunity system. take for example the wormhole event that lead to tech 3 destroyers. They could have announced that via the opportunity system. Simply make an opportunity pop up that wants you to get into a wh, get into an anomaly, shoot sleepers, loot them and sell the stuff. And when the event is over, remove the opportunity or maybe even get players who have done that opportunity when it was active some kind of permanent - cosmetic - reward.

I mean yeah, currently they are really focused on new players, and I see why those opportunities may be annoiyng on older chars. But they could really make them into a great feature for every players, when they regularly add new content. After all, its called opportunities and not tutorial goals for a reason ;)
