Yes¡¡¡ I totally agree with this, I was wondering the other day looking at warping animation if someone had already brought this subject to the forums :)

I also dont like how if you are at max speed and initiate warp how your ship stops then the warp animation beging and slowly start to warp just makes no sense and I think it breaks the experience of warping it breaks the sensation

I totally agree with this so.... PUNCH IT¡¡¡

My favourite 'jump to warp' animation is the one from Farscape.

I will pay Aurum for this.

CCP, make it so.

As long as it's not quick enough to make it impossible for me to see where my target has warped to.

The Warp effect is quite broken as it is right now. So it would be nice to have a new effect.
Seeing as how 90% of the time I don't even see the effect and the camera only shakes when I exit warp for a little bit.

To be honest just having a consistently working warp effect would be enough for me.

I love this idea!

I think that the warp effects during warp need a little improvement too. I know this because I very much hate the current warp effects, and the first thing that a friend tells me when I want to show them EVE is, "Man, you just flew right through that station and that planet. The effects kinda suck in this game don't they?"

I found this video to illustrate what faster-than-light travel would look from the inside: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQnHTKZBTI4&feature=related

I think we need this!

I support punching-warps. They look so cool, and the current warp effect is so old and lame...

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Do like. It's awesome (Though we might need some kind of effect showing where is the target warping. It would be a bit too far if there is literally no way to tell where did the target warp even if we had our eyes on it).

This looks delicious...

I usally write one of these and then change it a month later when I reread it and decide it sounds stupid.

Intro: As far as I know, the current warp effect is at least 4 years old. I believe it is time for a bit of a visual change in that area.

My idea is to replace the current "get up to speed and slug into warp" with a more "punch" like effect, as demonstrated in the following 4 videos.

My first two examples are from the 2009 Star Trek movie:
Linkage
Linkage - Imagine a Titan or other capital/supercap class ship performing the 2nd warp.

My next examples are from the game Mass Effect 2:
Linkage - Skip to 2:18
Linkage - Skip to 2:10

Finally, it seems that CCP has almost pulled this off already in the Incursion trailer:
Linkage - Skip to 1:20

I appreciate you taking the time to read my proposal.

Also, keep the suggestions coming, I'd really like to see this become something that (mostly) everyone can agree on and thus get it passed by the CSM.



i always liked this dropping out of warp effect

Linkage skip to 54 seconds in

Something like this.

Instant warp with a flash of destination direction.

I like the direction of this thread.
