Either bring back 'letterbox/widescreen mode' or allow for some sort of opaque background on targeted ship details.

That or allow us to turn down the nebula brightness. If you don't understand, try doing combat in Domain. I want to be able to watch combat and still have situational awareness.


Or anywhere is Lonetrek space, Sela region for starters, nebula is so bright you can hardly see the letters, not to mention it makes everything so ugly looking with pale blue light.

Font still needs some work.

Add the use small font for overview option to every window. Fix the positioning of the font on module ammo counts. Enlarge the font slightly on all item counts. The 1 digit seems to be poorly aligned.

As above some systems are just way to bright. Targeted items need shadow effect on text so as not to be lost against bright backgrounds.

Indicators for ewar near HUD. Sometimes bar works sometimes it doesn't. If webbed by two ships, visual effect on ship disappears when first web removed but still webbed by second ship.

Better trail effects for projectile turrets. NPC projectile effects have a bright clearly visible yellowish trail, player projectile effects are faint white trails, which vanish in bright systems.

You do know that after all these epic fixes, you now have to redo missiles. Completely.

No more talk how it is :impossible: or :too hard:. Missiles, after these epic win changes, just look TERRIBLE.

I don't care if it means that summer expansion is EVE Online: New Missiles with no other features. It has to be done. It has to be epic.

(note: epic != awesome)




yea missile launchers on the ships with missiles exiting from the launchers please. ( just don't feel the need to change the small 2d icons though )

As much as i want all these items that are seemingly enhanced w/ vitamin D

Hammerhead's

Concentrated Veldspar

http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc181/panhead4411/NameIssue2.jpg

Among many other items whose text wrapping is still broken.

It is apparent that CCP wanted the text to appear this way (this they have not addressed any questions relating to it, nor have mentioned it at all), but for what reason?

And the new names shorter names you gave some items creates a bit of confusion...which of these three "200mm Light"s is the gallium, scout, or prototype?

And, can all of my station cans please remember THEIR OWN position, instead of following whatever the previous cargo/can/items/ships was positioned to?

95% UI scale option.
I wouldn't mind ridiculous texture resolution option for ships either tbh. Call it something like: FryingpanGPU mode. Twisted

+1 Go nuts with state of the art graphics but allow people to turn things off
+1 Seeing the effects of shields / damage on armor and structure

Bright systems making targeted items and module timers hard to read and hud fade out.

Capacitor readout on hud still not centered after so much patching since they changed the color.

Probably already been mentioned, but I would love to see the ship's lights dim and go out based on capacitor dropping and capping out.

Drone Control Window
Allow for a setting to only show groups when drones are IN the ship. Something that is annoying as hell is recovering your drones and having the menu expand out for each individual drone

For drones that are OUTSIDE of the ship, please make an option so that the drone control window ALWAYS shows the status and damage bars of those drones. Right now, EVERY TIME you launch drones you need to go down and expand open the little window so that you can monitor them.

These two changes would make the drone control window a much more useful tool.

Two other things I would like to see
A 'Launch' button for your drones. (currently a menu chase, a launch group number would be even cooler)
A 'Panic' button to recall all your drones. (currently a menu chase)

Back some year ago (3 or so ? ) .. When i first started to play EvE i downloadec lient it was like 2.something GB size ... once i installed i got the option : Your pc supports premium graphic do you want to download and install it ? Where is that gonne ? make it alive again... you have people with top tier pc's here... who wants to enjoj the top tier games .. Also you have people with craptops... so Reinvent premium upgrade . Its way better than make craptop users download 6 gb sze game than just unclick HD . Considering that they have the worst PC atm do you rly think they have web connection of 60 mbps ? ( yeah i know there are exceptions)

So my Idea is : Make Basic client with average details and grapgic and all those thingies set to average . BUT if somebody wants HD and Extreme settings and like gajilion monitors he should download an extra content .

Add gamma settings
Add Volley damage under fitting screen
Optimal range range for missile launchers


Now i know this might be to much to do... but meybe just an idea for future (5 years or so ? ) If turret allready missed a ship , or missile who continues to fly after its target have ben destroyed encounters a new object in space (doesnt matter what it is... an asteroid .. a station... or even a friendly ship ) it will hit it and make some amount of damage (it can be just 10% of initial amage... just to have it it would be great)

you are wrong ... force a gravity is influentse by two masses... the bigger the size of one or both masses is the stronger that force is. Mass of station you are in is close to the mass of smaller Moons . So it is not Zero gravity and gravity in that case is strong enough to pull your hair to the shoulders . Even if you check the mass of a carrier or dreanought you would see after certain calculations that your hair should be on your shoulders .

Sorry for poor english .

Also i am sure that in station there is gravity because Incarna is ALL ABOUT WALKING IN STATION . That means there is gravity ... pretty strong one to because YOU CANT JUMP . So in that case Hair Should be on shoulders =p

Supporting two clients became too costly for the benefits gained.

Add in the problem of suns flashing and causing your screen to go totally white intermittently.

Crazy annoying and gives headaches at night. It's like having someone flash a camera in your eyes over and over again.

It's an old graphics issue, but it got hella worse when Crucible launched for some reason. Nearly every system does it now. Updated drivers, cleared cache...still no luck.

Seconded. "Sun is occluded by objects" seems to be the culprit since turning it off stops the flashing.

I thought for sure this post was going to end in a joke about the gravitational pull of dat ass.





But seriously, there are no gravities, just magnets.
