Maybe the new release cycle will help deliver this optional patch within the next five years.

Maybe CCP should crowdfund this project?

Want that Hi-Resolution ship models and assets? Better pay for it in the New Eden store so CCP has an improved profit model...

Threadnaught on this issue has existed for more than a year, continues to grow. CCP middle management still does not see as a priority even though the majority of the difficult work is finished.

Not a stretch to say most of the poor reputation regarding CCP's middle management is well deserved.

And now for a hilarious punchline.

Looking at any sorts of promotional pictures and videos and thinking "wow, my game could look like that" makes me want this more than anything sense right now- I wish we could get a little bit more information now, more than we got at fanfest.

Why should we crowdfund? We already have given them enough money and they already have the textures.

I'm all for improved graphic quailty, but I'm struggling to see where exactly we'd see the benefit from high-resolution textures. You'd see the quality while ship-spinning in station, so that's one thing. Certain stations look ratty when you're sitting directly next to them, so maybe there. But, when else are you really getting in that close on the art assets in the game?

Not arguing against it, just trying to understand what people are really asking for with this.

Actually it is, the textures were sorted out ages ago as confirmed by the Art Panel at fanfest.

The hold up is the content distribution team that needs to figure out how to splice into the launcher the check box for the optional download. This means variable download server targets and that's gotta be all kinds of screwy for the launcher.

The only way we seen them do this right now is with a command line tag for the launcher to patch itself to SiSi, but that's not a very clean method for those that aren't as computer savvy.

There's an overweight Hutt in my office. And also, I want some better graphics too!

Should I upgrade my graphics card first? nVidia 9600 GT w/ 8GB DDR2... open to suggestions.

And remember, no feeding the fatties!!
