Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Non Linear Inverse Perspective.

Eve needs more display options.

I need to know why a very large company like CCP cant do it but the small company that made Homeworld 2 can? CCP makes an MMO based in space but relegates ALL space structures to little bits of pixels. In a visual way I feel that this is what lets Eve down to newbies. Hopefully the new tessellation can fix this although the only limitations talked about were the poly count and boundary box extents and all that that entails.

Tessellation does not make a bra strap look any more impressive, even if you are standing close.

While gridlock works on improved HUD performance, I feel an art team whom is not spending as much time on upgrades as the trinity team was should get more people and work on these potentially vast improvements for graphics and ultimately marketing.

Because CCP, your biggest downfall is that your action videos DO NOT MATCH THE REALITY. Eve Ive heard is like life. It mimics. It follows. 90% boredom, and a little 1 % terror mixed in. Terror is terror and we don't give a toot what we are looking at but the other 90 % needs to be fairly pretty for new players or the virgins of certain ships so as to retain membership yeah?

Battles go so fast in eve its **** cool, we now need the graphics to match. Not textures or curves but scale mofo.

CCP?! can you do this?

Peace

Came expecting post about breast physics. Left disapointed.

I saw the trailer for Sins of a solar empire: Rebellion last night. I for one would love to see graphics and effects like that in eve. Not all of it maybe, but it had some sweet stuff. It would make everything from ship spinning to fleet battles more immersive. I especially like those shield effects. I am disappoint eve no has dis.

Comparable or not, appearance matters.


Lots of MMO's are prettier than EvE, there is nothing inherent to the genre that says "must have spartan graphics".

You haven't played many MMO's lately, have you?

Calling LoL or WoT a MMO is a bit on the edge. And, for the purposes of this discussion atleast, I don't think it's relevant; since (LoL atleast, and WoT too, I think) is small numbers of players in their own game, which is more similar to a local game than a MMO in terms of the program's structure.

But I agree, I've played a bunch of MMOs and Eve has the best graphics of the lot. The only MMO I can remember seeing with graphics equal/better than Eve is TOR.

HW2 actual models have nowhere near the detail seen in eve. On top of that, in the larger hubs, battles etc, I don't even want to know the vertex counts that eve has to process compared to other games. Sure, things like x3 etc for space games may have prettier models, but the out of graphics data being processed combined with number of models gives eve a unique design challenge.

I believe that we are comparing the Graphics Capabilities of EVE to other Space Games, not the Gameplay.
Let's keep it like that.
