I think it's great having a set name for each damage type, Inferno and Nova.. excellent.

Ummm.. Then we have Mjonir and Trauma? Bad call CCP.. Hahahah..

Thunderbolt and Scourge sound MUCH better.

From the patchnotes:
Quote:
Below the avatar thumbnail there is a progress bar that shows the progression of the current skill being trained. Hovering over it will show the name of the skill in a tooltip window and clicking on it opens the Skill Queue.

But what is this progress bar actually showing?

Take a look this picture:
Skill queue progress bar comparison

I'd say it is neither how full your 24h queue is, nor how far the current skill has progressed. It is also not how "full" your current medical clone is. Anyone that has this figured out already?

Sister core probe launcher and expanded probe launcher boost to scan probe strength has been increased from 5 to 10%.

Why make changes no one asked for? CCP why are you noobifying EVE Online? What happened to skills and specializations? Should have increase rate of fire first.

-Also, why blink notifications at Neocom panel? Give us two options, same as old and one like new. New rollling blink is beyond annoying.

-Agent list is too big, make it smaller or give as an option to resize portrait

Seems there are two group of people in CCP:
One that makes good positive improvements
Another that makes **** that doesn't make sense and changes no one asked for.

Example: Didn't have an issue before? Well, we'll change it and make it worse??

Overall good patch though, just item naming, scan probe noob boost crap that should never made it.

i have a few issues today

1. update corrupted a file called msvcr100.dll rendering the client useless - fixed it by copying the file from the ccp\eve\bin folder from one of my other pcs

2. client keeps disconnecting alot. makes trying pvp or incursions somewhat of a challenge

3. client feels very slow to respond at times


i have 4 pcs (all windows 7 sp1 64bit) the problems are random on each pc but still happens alot.

i had none of these problems yesterday when i was playing.

i hate how missiles got renamed.... makes it a nightmare to run searches now....a terrible unnecessary change

dont rename more stuff in that similar manner it will break search

Now I have slept one night and that way more qualified to judge your new neocom in a "calm" way.

-> The source belongs to /dev/bin
-> The designer needs to have serious brainwork to figure out how he/she managed to turn simple functionality to windows start menu with xmas tree lights and horrible button down/button up graphics. Obviously he/she had also nuke the "taskbar" where all windows used to minimize with names visible on their labels, because the neocom had to have even more useless multimedia attached into it. Placing inventory icons next to god damn undock button didn't even surprise me any more.

Find a tree and.... u figure it out.

Get classic forum style - custom videos to captains quarters screen

Play with the best - die like the rest

also, need to make it optional not to dock stuff into the neocon panel.
too annoying, I actually liked the collapsing toolbar of windows - better use - less moving mouse around

Why can't I minimize local anymore so I can see at a glance how many people are in channel and quickly maximize it when I need to? Sure I can double click it to collapse the window, then move that collapsed window to the bottom, then everytime I want to view local I can double click it to restore then drag it up so I can see it.


this!!!
used that a lot in big battles with 800 ppl where you dont really want to read all local crap but keep in eye the local count.

and why the **** does compact chat list apply to LOCAL!?!?! After all the discussions about removing local as intel or at least nerf it a bit, you BOOSTED intel by local and nerfed pvp!!
REMOVE COMPACT USER LIST FOR LOCAL WINDOW!

NEOCOM (fine except fotr the following)

- global blink/flash or non-global blink/flash needs changing so that you can set each individual item.

- assets/ships needs moving upwards by 1 item block imo.

- chat windows when minimized need to go to the bottom pf the screen, not back into the neocom.

- get rid of the I by using, well actually, anything but that I.

NAME CHANGES

- horrible imo. Changes should improve things. not make it 10 times harder to locate things because more items have the same prefix etc. (trauma/limited etc.)

MASS INVENTORY LIST FOR RELEASE 1.5

- Noooooooo, bin it, burn it, eat it, for gods sake get rid of it now.

I removed the effing CHAT ICON but now after I try bringing it back to the NEOCOM it will not show the minimalized CHATS I have to use cnrtl-tab & if I let go it disappears ARG
BRING BACK MINIMALIZE TO BOTTOM MINIMALIZE TO NEOCON IS A PAIN
why couldn't you have at least beenable to GROUP the chats which still is not as good to minimalize to bottom because the group icon looks like all others

My feedback:

6) Not directly related with this patch: the overview font is way too large. Any way to keep all the other windows with the current font and make the overview font smaller? I have transversal and other stuff, with this large font my overview takes one quarter of


yes! go to your overview settings, appearances, select "use small font" Blink

If only you could do that with every window....

First the font, now the neocom.

just wanted to throw in my +1:

chat windwos all bunched up in one icon on the NeoCom is almost gamebreaking for me....
With that design in place I have to go and click that icon like every 20s to determine if an important channel is blinking, and if so which one it is. (also the new blinking animation gives me a headache :( )
The option to minimize single chat channels to the bottom of the screen needs to be put back asap.


Additionally but not as important:


  • the little bar that shows the skill progress is tiny and very hard to hover over on high resolution wih the neocom minimized to see actual skill in training and time till its finished
  • blue "i" are fugly icons :(
  • option if info or cargo windows should show up with a symbol in the neocom would be apreciated, they clutter up the neocom considerably ...

Trauma?!
Seriously?
Can't believe you guys went with that.
Have you even considered "Bruiser" or "Contusion"?

But then again, names quality and coolness factor has been declining all along.
What can we expect from the same guys that thought fuel "blocks" sound sci-fi and cool.

Please CCP, put a little bit more of thought in the names you are introducing.

Nothing should be permanently this close to the "undock" button. "ships" and "items" are too close to the undock button, and they can't be moved.

You can still have station specific services show up from bottom up but there needs to be space between the undock and other buttons because currently it is entirely too easy to miss-click the undock. And get yourself killed if in a war/low sec/0.0.


A good move would be to: Put the Date/Time above the undock button, which would provide the visual separation needed.

And we still need the option to add the "day of month" and "day of week" information back to the clock area. Let us right-click the clock and check off options like "show day of week" and "show day of month".

it would be quite cool if we could freely move icons in the neocom to leave gaps between some of them. This would make it easy to visually group some things which belong together (beside the neat submenu grouping which is already possible)




yes some kind of deviding line / separator would be nice, so that we can group some icons

I like the Fuel blocks, and I think the new Neocom will be good once the issues are ironed out.

The only negitive thing I can really say about this update is that name chanegs. They suck. Alot. You took stuff that had cool names and made them bland and boring.
