EVE General Discussion

I too hate the new inventory, I also agree that its not that hard to ctrl+ click to open an individual window, especially if you've pinned those windows they'll open in the same spot. My ***** is why in the hell would they make this new system & not even give the option to lock like the "items &"ships" window so they're already open when you dock up? VERY annoying!

As a special little snowflake i can't really say that it's that hard (20 min to load your missiles, really?) to get around with the new inventory system, but it really has its flaws.

I can cope with the stuff in station, but right now, the whole window pops up for me every single time i warp to a new system and salvaging has become a real mess.

The new inventory has its positive aspects, but a fair degree of functionality has been lost in the shuffle.

More clicks to do the same job as could have been done with less clicks before the change means loss of functionality.

This is like a re-run of the Hangar view controversy last year. Some people thought it was just about "ship spinning" per se, whereas of course it wasn't, it was about a) practical loss of functionality, and b) psychological loss of a sense of "home". The first is more immediately important, but the latter is potential death to an MMORPG that depends on subscriptions, that depend on people finding a sense of "home" in the game. It seems CCP didn't quite learn the lesson then. Hopefully they will this time. It's not as big a disaster overall (it's in the context of an update that has some very nice features), but it does need sorting PDQ.

As usual, Tippia has nailed it. I'm not as much of a power-user as she is, but I'm feeling the loss of functionality to my own degree.

After messing with it for a bit, I can see what they had in mind. For some use cases, it is better. They, however, didn't think it through for other cases. POS and salvaging? - Very irritating (Being kind here).

In my opinion, their efforts would have been better utilized on the Assets dialog.

The missile stuff, even though they threw the laws of physics out the proverbial window, is pretty sweet.

The OP's grammar "sucketh" far worse than the new inventory system. The new UI has made it a lot easier for me to actually find my stuff instead of having to scroll through endless lines of items or try to type in some module name that I just can't quite recall. It's also made mining a lot more streamlined, although I will have to get used to the Loot All button's slightly reconfigured position. Honestly, congrats are in order to CCP.

Now, pulled from CCP's secret files, is the recipe they used to create the new inventory. "Take three cups of awesomesauce and a dash of pwnspice. Mix it all together thoroughly through coding magic, then refrigerate for several days to cool the heat of haters. Finally, serve for a full helping of pure win."

Posting in another inventory thread to say I love the new inventory, it's is so easy to use and has deffinitely cut down the amount of annoying windows everywhere in my station.

Seriously if you are having a hard time figuring it out then maybe you should play some solitair or something, you know learn to drag and drop in a single window.

Maybe you should learn to manage your desktop its only messy if you make it that way. We can manage it fine, we just don't want to. its more clicky and less intuitive.

I always value the opinion of someone who doesn't take 2 seconds to see if there is another post on the subject.

Currently, the same sorting view option is forced on ship and item hangars, and this is not acceptable. I want my ship hangar in icons, and my item hangars as list view. Thank you.

This new 'feature is a real pain. Spend 5 minutes everytime I log on reopening ships, inventory and cargo windows and placing them where I like them. Pinning doesn't work since it only remembers one position, e.g. not mutiple windows.

In my opinion the worst Ui feature introduced in 7 years. Just wish there was an option to use the old system.

Really annoying.
