Oh yeah, trolling on feedback forums is so helpful to ccp.

Only bad things are trolled, for they are bad and in turn people should feel bad having made them.

I always lol on internet trolls, tend to be the ones that at the face all that they can do is stutter, so they mitigate this lack on internet forums trying to make themselves the smart pimp ass, and they needed 5 minutes to come with the cool phrase.


Anyway, my point has been told, I quit this kiddish, stupid, pointless argument with internet chipmanzees, you win dude, you are a higly gifted person, I'm just a moron :)

Now, keep barking, go ahead, make my day :)

Because tities .

The system in place is very stream lined for the eve universe.

Too many icons and you have a UI issue. Too easy and you have a battle issue. They can't make it too easy or else it will turn people off from dampening you because you would easily be auto targeted.

The whole point of the battles in eve is they are calculated and you are required to take time to compensate for different scenerio's.

The few seconds it takes to right click the icon and select the target that is jamming you is in line with the overall mechanic of battle itself.

Could you streamline it more? Yes. Your suggestion would make it far easier but with consequences. Less UI room due to multiple icons etc. It also reduces the thought process of targeting and affects fleet battles.

There is more to eve than your comfort. EvE was not created to be a casual environment where you can one click your way to victory. Tremendous amount of thought is placed in the combat system. The time it takes to call out targets, the time it takes to lock, tracking, the time it takes to react. These are all things that affect the base mechanic. Making them easier and faster is not ideal because you lose the "skill" needed to be a part of the elite pilots of EvE Online.

This environment is not for the simple minded. It's not for those who want to one click their way to victory. F1? Sure, F1 all you want. You can be a peon, a grunt. There's nothing wrong with that. Because your FC's are taking up the slack. They are taking on the responsibility of target calling. They are the ones assessing the situation.

What you are asking for is not something in dire need or demand. It's something that a lot of us simply don't want because it makes EvE too casual. Thought process should never be replaced by ease of mechanic in any case.

Don't try to transform the dirtiest brothel dwelling MMO we call home into a fantasy world with elves and 1 click combat.

I think it could have been integrated into the overview. A thin, horizontal bar at the top with a strip of tiny icons in it. The background could light up (or just flash) if you become afflicted by EWAR and fade out if it stops. If you mouse over the little icons in it, it could highlight the ships in the overview that are doing that particular thing to you.

IDK, something...

Most annoying thing of the week: You failed to dock/jump because you are cloaked (in your Deep Space Transport).
