According to your Ingame Bio Mannfred:

Old Turretmodels: Disagree
new ones are better and it would be too much work that could be put into something actually useful

Old nebulae: Disagree
new ones have an actual position in space, they look a lot better and more realistic, you you want the old nebulae, move to a WH

Old missileeffects: Disagree
The new ones look a lot better, infact, also too much work that could be put in something useful

Old Canflip Mechanics: Disagree
You just want to canflip all the miners without danger of being attacked by other people, risk vs. reward, killmail = greatest reward = greatest risk^^, also the whole crimewatch mechanic would need to be either removed or changed, ccp put a lot of work in it, so it is quite nicely balanced

Old Font: Disagree
The new one is better to read, period

Jukebox: Agreed
The jukebox was awesome, now i have to listen to my music via, VLC media player...more work for me xD^^

Since it's all opinions in this thread, my opinion is, that my opinions are right xD



To the font, I mean to bring back the dropdown box and add the new font into it

To the Missilelaunchers, i think, it wont be too much work, to make at least possibile, that missiles can start either from inside the ship or from the launchers

i'm REALY miss the old stuff.

Static complexes are nice too and dont need so much work

"the mineralprices rises again massively up and it reduces income of missionrunners (30% of my income comes from reprocessed loot). Let the system as it is right now, i dont see any problems." - reprocessing will give you less minerals, but minerals will be worth more, so your income will be fine .... also, mission loot supplies too much minerals to the market compared to mining, so miners - who actually try to earn a living with minerals - get less money than they deserve for the minerals they bring... the reprocessing changes will help with this

Drones. Drones are a means to an end. An end to the ruthless Caldari 'progress' machines. An end to the barbaric 'redemption' proposed by the Amarr. What they see as chaos shall be my perfect order, merely beyond their comprehension.

Im aware of one little problem, that wasnt there, where I posted the thread, but occoured over the thime:

Some players, that read this thread, do not know, what i actually mean with the old stuff, such as missile launch effects or old nebulaes etc. Newer players werent present at the time of these changes. Its now 3 years ago as the turret modells got changed, 2 years since the missile changes and 1.5 years since the flag mechanic got changed.


But to give newer players also the feel, how eve looked long time ago, I have here a few videos/pictures:

Video about the old missile launch effet

Video about the old nebulaes


pictures from the old turret modells: (not made by me, found on eve-files)

Hyperion with Ion blaster cannons

Legion with old heavy beam lasers



I also have added 3 more smaller things to this thread (see post 3)

i'm REALY miss the old stuff.

For th nebulaes, we just need an option to activate the qube. The old nebulaes had a sphere structure and the new ones have a qube structure and are inside of the sphere with the old nebulaes. When you remove that cube with the new nebulaes, we have again the old nebulaes.


Here is the reason, why some peole think, that the old nebulaes are bad:

They were too dark after the dominion release and some structures were almost invisible. Back in 2003, the nebulaes were brighter and all structures were visible. If CCP brings it back, than they will prefer the 2003 variants of the nebulaes. I also think, that the old ones were created with procedural content generation. Thats why they look so similar.

Currently, there is a open world space game in development(limit theory) wich contains also procedural nebulaes. And they look similar to the old nebulaes of eve.

However, I dont understand, why CCP replaced these shinys with pictures from hubble etc...

I like the old nebulaes, as they are. They just need increased gamma level, thats all.
