EVE General Discussion

Get Orcas and Rorqals into the belts more by tempting them to get greedy.

Give Orcas Medium mining drones and Rorqals Heavy mining drones. The slight increase in ore produced is insignificant compared with the increase in numbers of Orcas and Rorqals that will be caught even just delaying warpout while recovering their drones.

I want clothes, just like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVDeLliNZ2o <- THESE !
(Well not for me personally, but ... ^^)

Seriously, how can anybody not want that ?

It's an instant winner ! :D

Little to no effect to sub-capitals ?

ahaha .......... hahahahaha .... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !

Not sure how, but it needs to be much clearer what effects are on your ship, such as warp disrupts and webs. Tiny icons on the overview are inadequate in my opinion. Maybe even add a little siren sound effect when you get hit with any kind of warp disruption, battle stations!

Buttons don't work sometimes, I'm sure everyone knows how sometimes the UI buttons don't respond. One that's consistently broken in the unlock target button.

This has been broken with the carbon UI: you can no longer press enter to close the anomaly pop-up boxes, and you cannot confirm the market buy/sell box by pressing enter. (it's more convenient to move my right thumb to press enter rather than to move the cursor, for me anyways)

When receiving assistance from any fleet member (remote ECCM, RR, remote Sebo'ing, etc), their yellowbox should change to green or purple or something to indicate that they are assisting you. Would be less confusing in large fights.

And D scan slider needs to be spread out and equalized - selecting 5, 15, and 30 scans is far too difficult.

EDIT: Oh, and drones should keep their mwd's ON if the target is faster than their orbit speed. A battleship should NOT be able to kite warrior 2's

change contracts default search to (price: lowest first) instead of (date: newest)

also make it so if I had various filters and a contract is assigned to me and I click on that (on contract window tab #1) I dont have to clear my filters (on contract search tab) to actually see the contract assigned to me which I just clicked on

Black Ops fixes.

And, oh wait, there's no point in asking for FW fixes, cause you promised them for winter, and i shouldn't concerned that they haven't been mentioned or put on sisi, right?

Minor feature I would like to see *explored* would be the generation of unique serial numbers and contruction times for all assembled ships, Information that would be static and unchangeable over contracts, station trades and other ways that ownership might be transferred. It need not be preserved across repackaging, I don't think there's a way to do this otherwise.

You'd be able to see this via the show info menu, and you could see it in contracts and station trades.

Why?

* Well, when these new BC's appear there will be people paying many times the mineral value to own the first off the production line, but right now, there's no way to show this pedigree after the fact, adding this info would preserve this value. 'Early Model ships may acquire some additional value on contracts after the fact.
* Display this information on killmails, so we can track not only the pilot, but the ship. Now killboards will be able to track ships, again, some ships may acquire extra value to collectors, identifiable based on the serial no.
* Unique, unalterable serial numbers give the supercap spotters something to catalog.

Now the reason I say 'explored' is that I don't have access to the Eve Online DB Schema, but I could imagine that there are ways to synthesize this information based upon data already in the tables. If the object has a created timestamp then that works as an assembly data, then you can hash the timestamp with the object ID to create a serial number.

If, however, there are no such columns, or there is no unique identifier that is preserved as the ship object is moved across containers/contracts/trades/hangars then this is more than a 'small thing' and it would be better looking elsewhere for the moment.

Ultimately, this is a step towards a more complete 'Combat History' feature for ships where you'd be able to see all the kills you made in a ship, and possibly make that information public (so you can see the notches on the hull of that pirate ship), but we're talking about small things here.

- Reconnect to lost drones (functions the same as reconnect to lost probes, only you'd have to be within your drone control range to recall them).

- more than 50 saved fittings per character.

- "saved" templates for starting industry jobs.

- fix the "you fail to dock/jump because you are cloaked" bugs. If I pressed the button to dock/jump, I obviously wanted to drop my cloak and perform said action.

- Multiple overview windows (possible uses: one for friendlies, one for enemies, etc.)

- Ability to close alliance/militia chat window

- Redo the drones window so that its easy to switch between drones in space and drones in the bay. Scrolling stinks, especially when your carrier has 350 drones in its bay.
