But what about those screens with advertisements in stations?

How dare CCP put in such an annoying fluff feature that also lowers my framerates!

Don't they realize no one asked for them?

CCP please add a switch to turn them off!

Dammit. They ARE Catalonian! Lol

I had an uneasy feeling on how could so many young actors in a video clip look like they're from my neck of the woods... then after the clip ends, turns it's been filmed in my city and certainly the actors are Catalonian.

Indeed. Player Options, CCP, what a concept.

I want to know what the original Airbus was called.


...was named the Airbus A 300 because it was designed to carry 300 passengers in high density, high frequency connections between European cities. Like a urban bus, the "air bus" was designed to make several leaps a day without refueling and carrying large amounts of passengers without bells and whistles but great economic proficency. The design concept was "flying 6,000 kilometers a day in four 1,500 km leaps".

The success of the A 300 led to designing the A 310 for longer range flights, and also the same principles of eocnomic proficency led to adopting one of Airbus' disctintive features: all airplanes from the A310 onwards have used versions of a same computer assisted cockpit, allowing pilots to cross-train for different aircraft with minimal investment.

This may seem a bit crazy, but has worked perfectly... and all in all, Boeing used different versions (and sizes) of the same wing for the 727, 737, 757 and 767. That wing wasn't abandoned until the B-737 900 started using composite materials in the wing. Also the tail units for the 737, 757 and 767 are so disctintive that during 9/11, I could tell from the initial fotage of the second impact that the airplane was a Boeing. I recall saying "that was a Boeing, maybe a B-737... at least 200 persons could be inside!".

But now I am like seriously digressing...


Thanks. I find that quite interesting, actually. Digress away on that all you like, imo.

Adding options to turn this stuff off just adds more things for QA to maintain to make sure it does not break anything. It was just a poor design decision that could have been implemented better IMO. If we had an option to turn off every new feature that everyone hates we would need a search box just to find the check box to turn said feature off.

Not to mention, since you can't aim your camera UP, in some outposts you can't see the entirety of one of the screens, no matter how far out you zoom. What?

So, you're a bounty hunter. No, that ain't it at all. Then what are you? I'm a bounty hunter.

You can aim your camera up.It is a bit tricky to do so but still possible.Position your camera looking down the angle you wish,then hold and drag the right mouse button.Voila! Cool

Old code, new developers, new code, players will grrr anyway. Then they change instead of improve and players grrr with a reason. Then players adapt and 2 years later they're still using the same UI they hated and now complain about some new camera they hate now, but in two years...

Changed Lea-Marie's portrait. A strike of whim, and probably I've broken it. It's been my first login since Citadel too.
