And then I looked at the old turrets, and compared them to the new ones appearance-wise.

I then came to the stunning and utterly unexpected conclusion that the new turrets are in fact far more visually impressive, don't look like they're made of goddamn plastic, and actually FIT on the ships that they're supposed to be put on, given their general aesthetics! (Blaster punisher? Really? You can put lasers on it now, and it's actually good with them. Furthermore, Scorch. That is all.) Also, the fact that we have missile launcher turrets now, which is excellent, because missiles coming out of nowhere is idiotic and nonsensical.

You can miss the old content until your heart melts a path out of your chest by excreting pure black liquid sorrow, but the objective truth is that as time progresses EVE continually becomes more visually impressive. There's no point in rolling back features and making the game look like it's 2008 all over again just because one person whines about it.

As for weapon synchronization, I really don't give a damn. The damage notification still tells me that it's the group as a whole that's hitting, so nothing's detracted for me.

I think anyone says something other to changes; I belive not all players was for that changes, i see, that the CCP videos on youtube about that has a few houndert dislikes and about 50k likes.

How you see, im ONE, who disliked that. And i disliked those videos, because i find the old ones better.
And i will add the removal of canflipping also in this thread, after the patchday of eve online - Retribution.

Please quit playing EvE. CCP made changes to the game that look great. Majority of players think so.

Your starting to sound like my son when he doesn't get his way. Were's the lock button.P

CCP wish list: show damage on ships and open that door!

Well, you've made your opinion known.

It's been pointed out that most people don't agree with your assessment, and that it is completely impractical to do as you request.

Time to move on.

Added two things to the startpost regarding the Crimewatch and the AI changes

[i]Canflipping:

reason for bringing it back: This was a nice mechanic, for pvp in hi-sec and it was fun, to steal loot from other players. But now, when you do it, you can get attacked by all players.

Idea:
-Adding an additional timer for this and new rules:

-if you are in an alliance, you can freely take cans from all alliance members.
-If you are in a NPC corp, you can freely take containers from all NPC corp members, that includes also FW and starter corps
-If you take a can from someone, who is in an alliance, you get a flag for all aliance members
-If you take a can from someone, who is in a NPC corp, you can get attacked by all members of this NPC corp.

This.

No reason to have some incredibly hard missions (missions with several (up to now separately aggroing) groups vs. missions with one group per gate).
When hastily trying to get out of the mission it wont help when your drones that are out to kill the scramming frigates are being shot at. Thats just incredibly bad design.

"4. Old ones was changed over Constelation, new over Region - Epic fail"

100 % agree with this. 4 colours - 4 empires > it makes the game childish.

NPC:

since the patch, you get always stageaggro in all missions.

The new AI is great, but two things are not ok:

1. You will get always stageaggro in all Missions and complexes -> Bring back old aggromechanics
2. NPCs can now switch to drones -> Reduce the chance, that NPCs attacks your drones by 50%

Lol... You can still can flip. What you don't like is the fact that if you steal from a can these days, you get more pvp than you bargained for... Please stop spamming the forums with redundant whines about changes that gives you more pvp... Its sad.

Eve never had visual launchers before the ones you have now. They were "invisible" before.

The old turrets were **** blips on your hull... you could barely make out the difference between any gun types unless you zoomed in all the way....

If you want to see what those looked like, use Google or youtube.
