EVE General Discussion

Oh look at me, I am getting my comments and personality off of the internet shelves in order to look cool and unique like all the other douche bags that have no sense of personal style, or identity.

"umad?" I know this is the internet and half the people have brain damage, or at least operate on the same level as those that have a real medical condition, but seriously, what makes you think I'm mad about a stupid feature that makes calculator online less user friendly?

oh, I know what you were thinking, you were going to say "umad?" to score points with the other retards that can't think for themselves. You thought you could also lick the bottom of the boots of ccp at the same time by trying to suggest that you had anything to do with the failed design and idiotic implementation of this change to the game that slows things down, makes the interface far more clunky, and adding absolutely zero additional usability to some of the most boring parts of the game.

"I have nothing to say of my own so ill just say 'umad?' yeah, that will get that person for suggesting ccp could possibly do any wrong!" ~ thoughts of a useless run of the mill fanboy

BTW, thanks for posting, it helps fuel my thread.

No, it does not help, I have tried. Even if the filters were applied and sped the loading of the inventory it would be a mere bandaid to the problem. The problem is that ccp did something they should have known not to do. That means they should have realized that this system forces the client to request far more information then the user wants and it does so all at once.


If I go to a pos and know that i want to open a very specific lab, I should have the means to open just that particular lab. That is what we used to have with the old system. The user made 2 clicks to open the lab, then an additional click to the specific tab that they wanted. However, if you had already used that lab it could have eliminated one of the mouse clicks as it would open the lab to the last tab that you had used, which saves time for the user. it also saves time for the client to load, and it requested less information then the current system from the server as it is only asking for information regarding lab 4, not all information for labs 1-10 at the same time, even if the user had no intention to work with the 9 other labs.

The same is true of the in station hangar. If i wanted to check out my ships I could hit the old ship hangar button and just get the information for what ships i had stationed there. Now I am forced to wait for the system to send information for the ship hangar and the item hangar with all of my gear. I doubt I have the amount of gear of the top 10% wealthiest of eve players, so i can only imagine the load times for them.

The problem lies within this change that ccp thought for some reason would improve the game by forcing the player to work through a list of storage units, all while forcing them to load everything in their immediate area even if they did not want to open 99% of them. There is zero improvement in regards to this aspect of the game from the update. I do not need to know the estimated value of the items in the hold of my ship or a lab, I already frakin know it. It really does not help anyways because if you are going to sell something then you are going to see what the market is offering for it. The filters? thats great, but I have been using station cans for that stuff for years. They could have also implimented these useless to semi useful additions to the inventory without mucking things up by forcing me to see everything in stattion when all I want to do is see what is in the cargohold of my current ship.

I completely endorse and support the OP's rant. This change, despite it's bells and whistles, has been a clear step in the wrong direction.

The puzzling thing I have noticed is the number of Goons that step into threads on this subject to defend CCP, the new inventory system, CCP Soundwave, and various other aspects of the game (think perma-moons) and I wondered why. Then it struck me...

The one word that these all had in common must be the link.... CLUSTERF*CK !

I cant blame anyone atm due to other games being laggy as amarr beucrats whcih is something im suspsecting being weird with the way my computer talks on the network with anotehr one.

really? I was reading away and thought you were going to end it with "circle jerk in the park at midnight!" but I guess I was wrong. All the signs were there, but then you went and pulled off a surprise twist. they gotta repay their masters somehow. Kinda like chicago brand politics, don't you think?


you brought up the moons, they really need to do something about that. What they should do is impliment a system much like PI, except for moons become depleted after x amount of y material is extracted. The materials could be seeded in another moon at random. If so it would force alliances to constantly check their moons for a nice surprise, and those with a good moon would have to hope that their cashcow stays around another day. It makes little sense in a game where everything else is a depletable resource to have a isktap that one does not need to work for that can bring in so much money as a good moon. IF ccp wanted to have 0.0 ever flowing where alliances rise up while others die off, they need to shift the good stuff around so that sometimes the small alliances can get the funding to grow and oppose the larger ones, all while forcing some alliances to find new ways of funding their wars and defenses.

we aren't talking about your dad.

I have no problem at all with loading all the info from my POS and dont have to wait for the info to load and I know if something is in range or not because I can see where they are and have placed all of my structures in a way that gives me easy access and enough room to move a frieghter around.

My Large POS is also full of production and labs so I have a lot of bays to look in each with several sub bays and the tower itself.

Hey, its good to see that this forum is not just filled with moronic trolls trying to praise anything ccp throws out, or is part of another massive blob alliance that feeds off of a broken game mechanic.

Yuck Fou does not approve of swearing

Glad your not a GM, and love the name btw.
