What is it with this community?... seriously guys, why has everything CCP does/changes to be greeted with a chorus of b*tching an moaning? Not constructive feedback, no, but plain old whining... every single time. Roll

constructive feedback was in this thread

feedback thread#

There were a few comments about it causing problems but it was rolled out.
After rollout there were a few problems and people asked for an off switch. We got a stern NO which is fine and constructive feedback was asked for in this thread.
Nothing more was done untill last patch. (and i have to say those changes were insignificant for myself)
The problem now is that this thread is huge and getting lost in translation.
A small amount of people want the OPTION to switch it off, nobody listens to them but they keep bleeting away because for them nothing has changed.
Nobody has fixed their nausea or whatever else has gone on.
Nobody has fixed or answered their constructive feedback, hence they sound like plain old whiners b*tching and moaning.

I personally do not see why the option to turn this off offends so many people. It`s not taking anything away from anybody else`s game. It`s just a request. The thread should realistically only be filled with people who want the off option. It isn`t of any consequence to anyone else`s game.

The best way to fix this thread is to just leave it to people to bleet away untill they unsub, which is what is happening, or get a fix/off switch.
It`s also worth noting that the quality of the animation has been improved, possibly as a result of the bleeting in this thread

There was some constructive feedback... Nothing new happened so...

...

So, I don't understand how CCP, despite 10 years of experience in gaming development, still do some errors than only newbies can do.

Let's check the competitors. "X3:Reunion" for exemple (and the rest of the series) is not a MMO but still is a decent alternative to Eve Online in the spaceship market. The game can be played using multiple points of view (the 1st remains the most important) so to compensate the annoyances, the player can find the classical FOV setting and as there is a jumpgate animation too who partially act like the Eve one (change of point of view, etc.), there is also a « SHOW WARP TUNNEL » option. Once this option is disabled, the jumping animation remains the same, except that a progressive "fade to black" transition is added, hiding all the jumping process.

Why would it be so hard for CCP to add the same thing ? Apart telling indirectly to the players that not adding it from the start was wrong ? I know that the CCP staff is very proud of himself but I won't whine more if... Wait, perhaps the real problem is here in fact, nothing technical, just e-peen...

Anyway, personaly I would love this animation but with a free camera and in 3rd view (as it is in ALL the rest of the game) but if it is difficult to do it, then CCP can just add a fade to black transition once the camera begin to swing - and only if the player activate it in the options - who would resolve everything. Of course, as we are in Eve, only the space area would be covered, not the interface (in X3 it covers everything).

And don't tell me that it is hard to add it, it is a graphical effect who only affects the client, not the server.

Removing obsolete signature... You just lost time to read that =)

I consider people unsolicitedly demonstrating their ignorance a much larger problem, it is simply more annoying. Roll

Uh, and...

Turn it off.

Yeah, that's what I've been doing lately but it really takes the fun out of the game having to turn away or close my eyes all the time.

I find it equally ignorant to be against everything from the get go, simply out of principle... the player base in general has received the new animations favorably, yet still there are some people that think they need an option to turn them of (something that is obviously not as easily implemented as it seams) because... yea, why exactly? Motion sickness? Potential server crushing, graphics card melting hardware strain? The reasons said people come up with seam as inconsistent as the request itself, while the simple thruth is: They just don't like it.

It's a mere sconds long animation... close your eyes! Roll

Then please stop complaining about a feature of a game you don't play anymore, that others really like.

Jump SWOOSHBADOOSH Animation FTW!

So what is your purpose posting in this thread again? Oh right, you have none, other than to complain about the complainers that are asking nothing more than an extra option or toggle switch. Gotcha.

Make it an option? Sure, but then let me turn of all the Jump Drive animations off as well. And Missiles! Oh gawd, those pesky little things make my head explode. Maybe I can at some point disable everything besides my Overview. That would be cool. I bet CCP have nothing better to do, than implementing that anyways Cool






Also make Eve playable again on my Atari
