CCP: The reason people do not like the docking and undocking animations is the same reason for why they do not like the gate jump animation.

The camera movement is not tied directly to player input.

The disconnect between an action by the player and a change in the view is the basis of motion sickness. Whenever your senses have a disconnect between what you see and what you feel (in this case, how your fingers move), you can get motion sick.

If you want to fix these animations so they are not objectionable here is all you need to do:

The only time the camera view angle or zoom level should change is when the player tells the client to make the change. All such changes should be directly tied to player input.

Omg this thread lol.

I just want basic balance for carriers.

CCP, you get a high five.

I couldn't read most of these comments without wanting to punch a wall.

"I'm unsubbing my 18 [highsec mining] accounts!", ok ace sure lol.

Edit: why are you physically assaulting me with these new gfx, I thought we were friends

I can't select bookmarks consistently with the background moving around. Same reason I disabled camera shake in warp, it jiggles bookmarks around. It's bad enough that right-click menus fail if my right-click isn't made with a feather light touch.

Can you make the next events after the " "Shadow of the Serpent" more like the events before?

It is really boring to fly around different systems and to see some serpents sites but then you see your agents want other sites.

The easiest way is to make it like the sites before but I guess you dont want throw your Scope News Window away.
So you can make sites with different levels of difficulty and let all sites count for one agent (with different levels of points).

This.

It really would be a great help to those of us that are struggling right now to know that relief is on the way.

After day 1 I'm already burned out on this event. Implementation could have been better imo.

It seems to be against design policy to implement toggles, except in those cases where it's not.


edit -

fast approaching 20 pages with zero response to what is a game-breaking issue for a not insignificant group of people, annoying for most of the rest, and 'liked', with qualifications, once, maybe, by about 5% of posters. I don't think it's too much to ask to get some kind of comment about this from the development team. At the moment the silence is deafening.

There are two extremes to this situation. One is the client is so intuitive that it simply works. The other is feature bloat accompanied by feature selection boxes.

What you could do in the second case is deny there's a problem and force the end user and a good portion of your developers to act like everything is okay and not provide feature selection boxes.

Notification settings have their own window with a hierarchical browser to contain a lot of the complexity, so yes, adding a new notification setting is handled differently than a setting in the main game options window.

Then how about splitting up some of the main options into other places? Like for example there could be a settings menu on the Station Services window with options like toggling docking animations, screens in hangars, and even rendering the hangar scene altogether.

I realize that, I'm just pulling your chain, perhaps that doesn't come through well. The main point is I'd like a response about the camera issue.

YOU made the game - you should be able to do all this stuff with ease, your excuses are - its too hard "sad face". And thats for stuff that makes sense.
20 or idk how many sliders in audio options is fine and dandy...
The logic here and understanding that is just mind bogging O.o

Big smile10 more hours and I am finally free :)

No you can't have my stuff, I already gave it all away to some "lucky ?" players.

CCP's ignorance made me hate this game.

Bye.
