No offense and all, but adding a ticker box to disallow new features might be a common sense type of idea...


There is no reason I need more cpu or gpu tax for some added MANDITORY visual affect, or movie. please add a I DONT NEED MORE CPU AND GPU TAX button so we can have our smooth gameplay back and I dont add MORE crap to nest, I have more than enough accounts to manage as it is, I dont like waiting either so if you all could kinda hurry up, thatd be **** yo. :P


the line in space to show me where im going, wtf is that? are you suggesting im drunk? please add a ticker to turn this training wheels crap off? omg. might as well autopilot approach and orbit targets too while we are at it, in fact might as well have an AI play eve for me being im so ******* lazy to do anything in eve... including learn to pilot a spacecraft.

While the new camera is probably ok for the bulk of players, those that put high demands on the old camera are still left out in the cold with the new one being far less fit for the purpose of fast manoeuvring around hostile gangs and fleets.

It still requires 2x the input to look up and down as it does to look left and right. Its zoom increments are too closely packed when near the ship but end up in huge increments when you get to the type of zoom levels where its handy to have more control for kiting around gangs and fleets. Not to mention the zoom stopping at 200-250km rather than the old 1000km in this age of huge grids.

Its worrying that CCP thinking is that if only a small percentage of players are effected then why not make a change for the worst if it will only be a small fraction that will stop playing?

Id rather CCP make changes that use the current performance as a baseline and build from there, but then what do i know? Perhaps theres a benefit from alienating one group of people after another?

As for the new docking camera. Obviously. The first input a player provides is ignored by the game in favor of an arbitrary unzoom which has to complete before the player has the privilege of controlling their space submarine.

With all due respect CCP, who the **** is allowing this ******** **** onto TQ? Are you ******* ******?

why am i not surprised that this patch is nothing but a clusterfrak? adding **** that folks didn't ask for and not giving the option to not see it, pushing blanket nerfs to ships that essentially make them useless hanger toys again... you guys dont learn...

Yet again ccp has shown a near complete disregard for the feedback that they asked for. CCP Larrikin posted up the initial changes to carriers on the 10th asking for our feedback on them, and since then we have had 36 pages of feedback and discussion on how they are generally bad and way over done, and yet the only thing out of all that that they actually listened to us on was the power usage of XL artillery...

The changes to carriers are WAY too heavy handed, and we have lots of math and testing and examples of that in the capital balance thread, yet all of that has been summarily ignored and they push the nerf to live. all i can ask is why? why even bother asking for feedback if you just ignore us? hell, you did the exact opposite and actually made the nerf worse than what was originally proposed and snuck in the change to fighter weapon activation range, why on earth are you doing this ccp? you make an awesome and much needed change to carriers with citadel, and then barely 2 months later you nerf them into the ground so hard that they are literally worse now than pre-citadel. i thought you wanted folks to actually undock carriers and use them and loose them? that was happening, a lot. but instead of doing the smart thing and giving it a few months to see how we all adjust to the changes, you listen to the bitching and crying of so called "elite pvpers" and take out the nerf sledge and beat carriers to death with it.

bad show ccp, i really was expecting better from you.

Okay, canceled my sub over the carrier changes. http://i.imgur.com/rmoF9zq.png
My cyno alt will drop too as it's plexed.

Renewal comes up near the start of school, so if carriers are given an actual role between now and then I'll reconsider.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this: the hanger spin animation makes me dizzy. Please - add a switch or turn it the hell off.

Now the acceleration vector? Nice touch. It should make bumping much easier.

The docking animation has got to go... I feel dizzy

I have another opinion!

Could it be that the nerfing of carriers was done out of a knee-jerk reaction to their recent changes?

I want you all to think for a moment.... think back to those other games you used to play, when a new race, or tank, or ability, or class was introduced... Didn't it seem like super crazy powerful? and everyone was all like NERF NERF NERF.

Perhaps it wasn't that that new thing was overly powerful... perhaps it SEEMED powerful because it was new, and everyone else hadn't developed new tactics for it.

Perhaps what we simply need is for the Meta to adjust, and find ways of responding to things that we initially perceived as overpowered and nerf worthy.

No surprise that the lighting stuff needs tweaking. Yes surprise that this camera stuff was released in such an unpopular state.

Devs seem to have forgotten that holding back a change because it is not ready is not the same as cancelling that thing and wasting the resources.

More consideration for the players please!

I am not really concerned with the Carrier Sage as I could honestly care less I have no skin in the game if you will....

But I am quite sure there is not just one but several very lengthy forum Posts about this very issue and it seems that Math, player opinion etc have all gotten together in these posts and have pointed out the issues and what needs to be done... And in none of those posts did they say the Carrier needed to be hit with a giant Nerf bat....

So this once again makes us as players say!!! "Does CCP even read these Forum Posts" As they have clearly once again gone against the solid cohesive majority of people who have posted on this issue and have made there points clear with data overwhelming data to back themselves up.... But CCP still ignores this????

Again my main concern is this habit of CCP ignoring its player base!!! Whats with telling us to type feedback on this topic at this place in the forum and then ignoring the feedback completely and doing whatever CCP wants to do.... And then you just send us to a new Forum Post to post feedback about why we don't like what you just did even though it ignored everything that was ignored and complained about in the previous iteration and forum post.

Its almost like your just sending us to these forum posts so you don't have to deal with us.... And you have no intention of actually reading the posts anyway....

Wait until you have been around for a while, you will change your tune. Unless you become a CCP can do no wrong drone, which I really hope is not the case.
CCP has an amazing and long reputation for screwing things up and history shows rebellion is the best way to get their attention.

Google Eve incarna - CCP does try hard but too often get it wrong.
