Added a cinematic camera sequence for docking and undocking. This can be canceled prematurely by moving the camera.
Has been added to the game today.


I don't know which clueless person decided that that would be a great idea, cus who ever it was must have no eyes and no brain.
It's the most lunatic implementation that's ever made it's way in to any online game.
It may have seemed smart and fancy on the drawing board - but it should've stayed on the drawing board or at least trashed. (that is what trashcans are for).

Ohh and it's even idiotic that the feature can't be turned off.

Personally, I become dizzy enough from the watery state of warp that I could thankfully turn off, which is turned off btw.
But this "new feature" you've implemented without the option to turn off is just bullshit.
Just the motion when I log on and my ship starts turning and visually showing me that it's going to the middle of the station makes me dizzy. It's also distracting to say the least. It also make me nauseous.

Suggestion:
Have your tech ppl implement the option to turn this specific feature off - give us the choise and be versatile.
Don't be like other game developers thinking that this or that feature is so smart that not being able to turn it off is a wise decision. It's not. Games ARE! loosing players just for those simple reasons.

I can guarantee you that you'll be loosing me as a paying customer if the option to turn it off isn't going to be implemented, but I'm not going to pay for a game that now makes me dizzy and nauseous and have given me a slight headache.
I don't want to feel like that every time I want to play Eve Online.
And 1 more thing, moving the camera while the ship is visually moving to the middle of the station, doesn't work.

And what about those other players out there who's worse off than me? What about those? You wanna loose those too?

Do your self the favor and give the option to completely turn it off - the more versatile you are, the less players you'll loose.

I agree. I was also looking for the disable option instantly, couldn't find it and have written a bug ticket.

It's just enough for me to have a static image in the background (as it was possible before). I prefer fast dock & undocking.
