How can I turn off the Opportunities? I am over 4 years old now, I do not need that icon in my overview nor do I need that HUD section to popup everytime I log in.

Also, why did I get an Veherokior Probe SKIN when my char in question cannot fly a Probe to begin with?

My friend got a whole bunch of skins to redeem when he logged in, but I didn't.

Are they randomly given out? Is there some criteria?

For anyone who isn't in the know, I just found out that my friend got them because he had the bonus ships from signing up to Eve.

They were converted to regular versions and he got the skin. I didn't have any special ships so nothing for me!

CCP was talking about this for months now. I'm always baffled to see how someone can play an online-game without really registering what is going on in development.

Also if you had unused skin-BPCs, those were also converted to new licenses. I guess maybe next time you're more motivated in keeping up with your game!

I see Factional Warfare each time I enter FW system. Whenever I want to remove it, I just click on a FW icon in upper left corner and never touch it until I need that info. But hey, I'm not a 4 years old veteran.

Magic? Or maybe you owned this version of Probe, somewhere, somehow.

Maybe whoever thought it was a good idea not to limit Opportunities to new players should be looking for opportunities at the unemployment queue themselves.

Previously your skinned ships could be blown up and blueprint copies could use up all their runs, so they were not permanent.

Edit: This post should have gone into the specific thread for map feedback, sorry.

Great to see most of the usability issues have been taken care of. The map really has a nice feel to it now, though the inertia is still too high for my taste.

However the map does not fulfill most requirements posed by d-scanning.

  • There is no way to tell distances without comparing the overview and the map. Instantly getting a feel for the size of the system, especially when having to keep the d-scanners maximum range in mind, is essential. Same goes for probing. The old map provided this information by displaying the current distance between your ship and a celestial when hovering the pointer over the respective icons. Additionally the tactical overlay was displayed in the solar system view which gave you an immediate reference point.

  • It is not possible to d-scan anything while using the map. ‘Swinging the camera around’ corresponded with the d-scan cone in the old map. This was very useful to quickly d-scan anomalies and celestials while maintaining a good sense of location.

  • The map does not support zooming in to moon level. There are many situations, mostly but not exclusively in PvP, where d-scanning (or probing for that matter) on moon level is a crucial thing. Think d-scanning for a Jump Bridge or pinpointing a hostile in a cluster of celestials. Additionally it is simply not immersive. Often gates or stations are very close to other celestials and the new map simply does not allow to view appropriately.

I hope I could help by listing these, at least in my opinion very important, use cases. Thanks for your continued effort improving our EVE.

The New Map needs higher levels of zoom. Right now it's nearly useless for combat probing. It's impossible to pick targets out from around Planets and moons, or objects close to one another.

The zooming out when double clicking on a object in space increasing the time taken to accurately place probes.

The camera on the new map has a smoothing out feature that's little more than lag and decreases fine control of the camera.

Having the "You are here" marker not stand out makes it more painful for probing.

It isn't connected to the direction you D-scan at, making D-scanning more difficult.

The icon's floating above the actual location makes it less accurate.

The circle cursor.... just no. Seriously. NO.



The new map is flashy and pretty, and would work well as a scene from a movie, but right now that's it. Combat probing is a race against the clock to pinpoint something before it decides to leave. Every second counts.

All of this flash and sparkly stuff just adds on more and more seconds to getting the final probe.

Please have an option to turn off all the colours, camera smoothing, auto zooming, floating icons, and give higher levels of zoom. Let people that want the pretty visuals have the flash, and those that need it for PVP to have a no nonsense scanning tool.

Small launcher update, then 160mb game patch if your launcher is set to dl everything (recommended by me)

Faction Warfare is not the same as the Opportunities. You are trying to compare apples and melons, dear. Roll You go there, see it, and you leave and it's gone. And it has nothing to do with noob explanation. However, I have done each and every aspect in the Opportunities. Yet, the first time I undocked today, it expanded again to tell me I have completed an opportunity. When I switched systems, it expanded to tell me I have completed an Opportunity. I do not need to know that I have completed things I have completed years ago. When I start a private convo, it will tell me that I have completed an Opp (despite having 100s of PC logs...). I demand the option to remove this icon. It serves no purpose to me, it clutters my HUD and it distracts and annoys with useless information.
