EVE General Discussion

it's not bad...get over it already.

So much butthurt, you just need to get over it.


I think Unified Inventory is great.

I love unified inventory. U mad?

Some of us can adapt to change and not get all butt-hurt over little things.

There is only one thing about it I hate. I will try to explain it as best I can.

So, youre docked, and you open your ship cargo by double clicking the ship. The window opens in the position you placed cargo. All is well.

Then, you think, I need to drag stuff to hangar.

So, you click the "inventory" button, and the cargo window closes. Its fooking annoying.

Apart from that, It isnt too bad now, even if it was an unnecessary waste of dev time.

or plain stockholm fueled denial.

They have given up.
And to avoid the pain of defeat they now trot out the usual defeatist lines:
"It's not so bad"
"I actually like it"
"it's great"
etc.

and even use the 'drag them down to our level' and 'stop reminding me of the painful fck'n'chuck that is was' drivel of telling us to give up and let it go. As if...

I say screw those losers if they can't man up. You know what, you spineless wretches unworthy of being part of the EVE community, the price of quality, like freedom, is eternal vigilance. CCP shirked that responsibility and ignored play warnings and have yet to rectify the fundamental issues.

And now it has carried on for so long that the masses are giving up on Dev ears, realizing that they are deliberately chosing to rather let the player-community relations freeze over than changing bad choices. In effect making it a excercise in futility for the Dilberts and Alices among us to keep trying to hold them to, if not high standards, then at least standards of 'dont make it worse', which is in fact what the inventory system is.

OP: Are you fomenting insurrection again?

The Unified Inventory is better than at launch, but that does not mean is any good.

I am getting used to it, but that does not mean it is any good.

It is still unintuitive, confusing, slow, hard to use for large inventory tasks (it's primary function). There are still basic problems like failure to maintain uniqueness of secondary windows. I still have station containers that refuse to adopt a unique status and will steal each others' config info. So they have not got a handle on object inheritance, one of the most fundamental principles of object oriented programming.

Looting was not fixed with the latest patch, or by all means, correct me if it was.

I was the Orca pilot earlier this morning, and I can tell you that the UI piece of that job has somewhat improved, but the linear descending tree thing just blows chunks when dealing with many visually/graphically/hierarchically/vertically displayed objects.

For those who say DEAL WITH IT, I'd like to point out that all (and I do mean ALL) other games I play have smoothly functioning inventory systems, all with differences, mostly all are very efficient. Name any game: LOTRO, TOR, STO, Black Prophecy, Perpetuum, Diablo III, and even Torchlight. How in God's name does CCP get away with a "new and improved" inventory design that utterly fails to match in any way the smooth functioning UIs of ANY OTHER MODERN MMOs?

Lastly, when I play those other games I listed, I literally forget about the UIs as they function so naturally. In EvE, I feel like I'm constantly fighting the UI. The problems with the EvE UI are never more apparent than when I fire up EvE after playing one of those other games and experience the huge, huge differences.

The unified inventory is annoying. It is obstructive, unintuitive, and more time consuming to use.

The unified window is especially an annoyance when you deal with poses, corp hangars, and ships with fuel bay, ship main bay, corp hangar, etc like I do.

Those who say its great knows nothing until they try flying an orca or a pos.




Accept crap like this and you will meet your downfall.

All game will diaf become players begin to accept crap that is given to them as a "feature".

We must kill the roots, reject it and destroy it, before it grows to become a big problem.
