Test Server Feedback

Yes, let's definitely address this.

The new Drifter Fishing Corpse Launcher goes there. Use your grey matter for once.

Don't pay any attention to me, the new nightmare looks great. The screenshot couldnt do it justice but I just got home to see it up close.

My test servor client only downloaded 64 mb and the ships look the same as before, logged in and everything. Whats up?

So, i popped on to try out building the Entosis Link..... only to find they are not on the Market. Nor are any blueprints in any of the Amarr (or any regions.)

Were these removed from the market for a reason?

Check back today, I spoke to CCP Lebowski yesterday and he will get that sorted at some point.

We are designing a new icon for the TCU, the current white square is just a placeholder. This is the case for any that are using the unfilled white square like mobile depots, and silos.

I like the fact that the in-space object icons are getting an overhaul. I like the new icons as they give players a much better idea of the type/size as opposed to the generic crosses and squares that have been in use since EVE was first launched.

Having said this, however, I think that improving a few small details would make it even better.
The station and the stargate icons, i.e., when displayed in the overview look out of place. Perhaps due to the greyish background those specific icons have. Might be a good idea to either remove that grey background or allow for customization. Their relative sizes are good, imho.

The drone icons, or rather some of them, look strange as well. Some look good but others, like the tech I/II drones look somewhat "oversized" compared to ship icons. While I think everyone will adapt to the new icons, the thing I liked about the "old" icons is that a player could easily tell what were drones and what were ships. Now as things stand it can get rather confusing especially when dealing with larger numbers of players/objects in space, on grid (i.e. larger skirmishes or fleet battles). You may want to reconsider the relative size of the icons, not make them all the same size (drone icons smaller, ship icons bigger).


In any case, overall thumbs up to this "minor" but long overdue improvement.

Is this new? or have I just never noticed it before? http://gyazo.com/36804c2f71267ef724f223085bdb7076
