Test Server Feedback

didn't the old neo neocom let you put different chat boxes into a button? I'm sure it's just a bug or something.

new neocom is very confusing :(


Put an option in that user can choose between new and old design.
Or at least put text next to items so we know what they mean.

Just so you all know, hearing statements like THIS are why I take the time to write all my walls of text, play equal parts good cop / bad cop when sharing my thoughts with CCP devs, and in general spend far too much time in forums than is good for one's health (and admittedly, sometimes more than I spend on Tranquility itself - though often this is due to being away from home where I can play.)

Every person we can add to the active community again makes it that worth the work. That's one more wingmate, one more enemy to shoot, one more consumer of goods to keep the economy strong, and one more friend to spend time with.

Thanks for sharing Moon, and great to have you back! o7

Any news on the EVE Launcher?

New neocom is YES YES YESS!!!!

Love the fact that you can customize it with whatever buttons you want and the autohide function is sweeet

Care to share what is being considered for the capture mechanic? For instance I think most members of FW would agree that the standard POS/Outpost bash isn't really a desired "feature." Think more rebel alliance vs deathstar, and less beating your head against a wall.

Perhaps something to consider would be a multi-room deadspace complex like Worlds Collide using something similar to the current plexing mechanic. The bunker would be a deathstar that sits inside a deadspace complex that has entry gates that are opened by major plexes. Minor and medium plexes lead to different upgrade satellites (eg. shield resistance/recharger, or guns) - which can be contested by either side at any time. This way a small resistance group has the potential to frustrate an assault before backup arrives.

I like the new neocom, but I have one question (tried to find an answer, but failed), anyway, according to this devblog, there is the new neocom in a horizontal bottom position, is this somehow customizable now on sisi too? I really like the new customizability of buttons in the neocom (just have it what I really need there), and I like how it is giving you an overview about opened windows (much better than it is currently on TQ), but somehow, I miss this new awesome neocom on horizontal bottom position as it is showed in mentioned devblog :)

Thanks and keep up great work CCP!

Also allow numpad comma to enter a decimal point. I guess you can already do this in the German client, but I'm weird and have a German keymap with an English client. (Windows calc is smart enough to know what you mean, why not Eve's?)

Seems to work here?

I'm not even talking explaining the "why" of an orbit button, I'm talking the dust fight happening inside the plex, in real time. I'm talking about when our FW pilots warp into a plex, it means we already have our ground troops online waiting for the match to begin, which would happen once the EvE ship gets within proximity of the bunker, or perhaps even "launches" a probe like a missle, dropping the mercs off and opening the match for the console owners to spring into action. Literally, while we are orbiting that button, waiting for the timer to tick down, we can listen to the gunfire and the screams and hear the progress as Dust mercs race against a clock to secure the facility, convert the bunker over to friendly control, and escape back to a getaway pod to be retrieved by EvE players for a safe warp-out.

Since really there needs to be alert system for Faction Warfare plexes anyways, the Dust mercs would be racing against not only the consoles players who might be dispatched to defending a faciity, but racing against the possibility that their "ride" (the EvE ship who brought them there) could be eliminated in space if they take their time or fail at their attempt to seize the plex bunker Dust could spawn NPC foes as cheap default defense to chew through if the Amarr didn't make it in time to launch a merc probe themselves. Eve pilots can warn the Dust players the mission may be going south, or vice versa, and both teams can adjust priorities and tactics on the fly.

I know this sounds like a stretch, but I don't really see it as one given that cross-platform comms and cross-platform warfare are already functioning in Beta as intended. All this would mean is creating some maps for matches that would take place inside a space facility, instead of being limited to planetside as we have seen exclusively so far in the screens and trailers, and allowing Dust clones to be transported and deployed using a specialized EvE ship (I suspect this is already part of the link already, if not something slated for the future).

Ultimately the plexes could offer a more dynamic PvP scenario than a simple game of "king of the hill", there could be dedicated troop transport ships that one would need to get into the plex, protect long enough to get the dust mercs out, and failure could mean pissing off the mercs enough by letting them die or leaving them behind, risking the chance they'll defect or screw you over next time around.

I hope you're right and all this is sorted out already, regarding troop transports, deployment, and the Dust -Eve-Sov link. If not, we're slated for another Incarna in terms of being way behind schedule and possibly enraging customers who expect this level of interaction between the games and get handed something far more limited. I don't get the sense that this is the case though. I just think we have a lot of exciting news yet coming to us in the next few months, if we can be patient enough!
