EVE General Discussion

Yep... you just described one way to improve things and also one way to use the windowing system. People are used to something and would rather stick with the behaviour if it has felt fine to them. If there are improvements, they should be done in such way, that at usability remains at least on same level

Quite a few people have way too many windows open to keep them on bottom. The "double clicking header bar and moving window to bottom"-solution has been brought up before and the feedback has been mostly negative as it being real solution to lost usability there. It is one workaround for some though

The reason why I've suggested having narrow maybe 12-13 pixels high bar on bottom was because quite a few, just like you, have been saying that "I disliked the old feature (mainly) because minimized windows overlapped the stuff I already had on the bottom". Having the actual bar there for windows would be improvement for that. It would also be small downgrade for screen estate, but in the end the benefits are greater than the losses for players as whole (specially if some additional information is added to the bar). Obviously the optimal solution would be to have option to either have the bar and minimize to bottom or not have the bar and minimize to neocom. That might be over complex to issue like this though

Any way... because of stuff like this it would nice to have this project reopened and discussed to the point everyone (99%) can agree to.

any reversals?

Modular POS isnt just a 'small fix", it would change POS mechanics massively. It would affect many many players who might not want the change. It indeed needs to be discussed a lot more before they do anything to it

Bounty System is forever broken. Why? Because i can create an alt account and collect the bounty myself. Nobody has yet come up with a solution to this. Present a solution, please.

yeah wardec mechanics need a fix, though they seem to be changing the wardec mechanics... in favor of carebears which is kinda lol because, wardec is specifically for PVP...

Corp/alliance roles/tools are also a MAJOR MASSIVE change. No matter how its changed, it will greatly effect the security of everyone's corps and alliances.


It seems CCP's primary goal in Crucible has been to clean up all the 'little things', and they've done an -awesome- job at that. They've introduced really small but incredibly helpful features (Those yellow market orders, i'm lookin at you!), Condensed user lists, Retexturing and remodeling ships.

The POS/Corp/Alliance management stuff im sure is to come, but thats probably for another expansion next year. Be happy that they've noticed all the small broken or annoying things, and are fixing them. 'death by a thousand paper cuts" is a terrible way to die

All these "difficult" issues have been properly researched and discussed already... Suggested bounty hunting solution is here.

Updated with latest fixes, nothing added.

Added some random junk to recommended common good improvements section

Some forum related items fixed and have been removed from the list. Good work.

Slightly unrelated to this topic, wrote more detailed description and reasoning behind many of items being on this list to other thread about unified inventory or winferno as I prefer to call it. Other posts in there are also well worth getting familiar with.

Ranked PvP tournaments (to separate new players from more experienced) with free ships and rewards to lure new players into PvP activity.
