EVE Information Portal

its definitely laggier , drake looks like it needs too go through a spaceshipwash
PI is even harder now with the extra lag like it isn't fiddly enough already .. PI needs a complete redo

Ok, the new PBR is officially worse than the last time you messed with the ship colours.

The Gallente ships look like those god awful glass christmas tree ornaments you see in tat shops where everything's a little too shiny and a little too smooth to be in any way pleasing, and what exactly happened to the paint job on the Ishtar? It went from awesome graduated green/black to, well, yeah...

The rest of the ships now look like plastic kids toys.

I thought the whole point of these quicker release schedules was so that features that weren't ready didn't need to be rushed out in broken state and patched later?

Also, with the new UI, i've managed to get it back to the non-intrusive black that it always was, and i've managed to get rid of the blur that was stopping me actually see anything through the 'transparent' windows, but why is it now impossible to have some windows transparent and some opaque?

I'm sure the technology you've implemented these changes with is a step forward, but what you've rolled out as far as the UI and ship appearance stuff is just nasty =(

Let me start by saying: its pretty bad when I actually get mad enough to logg on the forums and say something.


I logged on this morning after downloading the patch, looked at my ship hanger and said: wow this looks really bad.

The talos skin looks like it caught the plague, the paladin looks like it was out in the sun way to long and got burned (its not the good gold color anymore, its a really poopy brown) and this is the same with my vengance, my enyo looks like a fat stubby roach, you killed the nice flat camo look of my fav ship in the game: the gila.

I wont go into describing all the other ships I have and how much I really dislike how they look., althought I appreciate that the t3s look like they did last night before logging off.

I buy ships based on looks and if I like the way they look, esp the icons since I have to stare at them in station, over 1/2 my hanger now really looks bad and its frustrating.


how does this: http://i.imgur.com/ECOccic.png look like this: http://i.imgur.com/8HCXOgv.png in anyway




THIS MAN KNOWS ME.



THIS MAN ALSO KNOWS MY PAIN.



I KNOW MAN THEY KILLED MY GILA.



I LOVE YOU FOR WHAT YOUVE SAID.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF CONFLAG CRYSTALS LET ME HAVE THE OPTION TO GO BACK TO THE OLD ICONS AND OLD UI WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAVE TO FLASH.

CCP THE SHIPS LOOK FAKE NOW.


Thank you for letting me vent,

Klapen, The Conflagbusinessman.


P.S. PLEASE LET ME GO BACK

CCP should give us option to use old icons style if we dont like new ones. Simple.

+1

Certainly looks very modern, that new UI.

"Modern" as in "low contrast, hard to distinguish if your pattern recognition isn't good"...
Can someone enlighten me if it's really helpful to someone that is colorblind if all colors are very close together?

Seriously, keep the icons if you have to, but throw in some more contrast - I'm using the Gallente color scheme (seems to be clostest to the previous Military Green) and in some windows the text is light green on dark green. Or light green on darker green when focus is lost.
How is that good UI design?

The "this skill enables" info is hard to distinguish - I actually had to click on the various levels to make sure they're not enabled, because I wasn't sure if the one highlighted square is highlighted because I clicked on it, or because it's the level that enables stuff.

Also, as others said, lose that annoying highlight to signal focus. Or at least make it instantly instead of that fading.
If I don't select a window, it shouldn't be highlighted. It seems the chat window is highlighted by default if I close another window. (maybe because it's the only other open window?)

I really like some of the new PBR changes, especially on Amarr ships, which I think is where they really do it justice. Caldari ships look far too "matte" and "smooth" ... Almost like they're made of plastic rather than metal with any sort of texture to it. Some ships look plain bad, like the tail of the Incursus. It's almost completely chromed out and shiny, looks very poorly done. I think what made EVE look so gorgeous before was the detail on ships, but not most of that is gone. Caldari and Gallente ships in particular need far more "texture" or "color" (for Gallente).

The UI is better, IMO, but the station icons are far too small and need to be made larger.

THIS.PLEASE.

Just wanted to say the Paladin has never looked so good ! Its beautiful! The gold plating on it FINALLY looks like 24 karat gold.

On the new UI, I actually really like it. I would love to be able to assign custom colors to it, like for outlines, backgrounds, frames, etc.

Great work CCP !

Annoying icons (because I must to focus on them to distinguish) and irritating color schemes. I could not find any lucid color scheme that would be pleasing to my eyes and no one without that stupid contrast on the selected item.
Could you give me back the choice of color as before using the RGB?
