Do you see what is wrong in this picture?

No?

It's three things.

Still nothing?

Well let me tell you then.



It's everything we had and don't have now, is what's WRONG with this picture!

We had vivid and colorful neocom and station icons. We had immersive sci-fi font, and we had Undock in neocom on the bottom left, the way Mother Nature intended.

And what do we have now? Bland, unimaginative and lifeless icons, godawful font unfit for a sci-fi masterpiece that is EvE, and crime against nature Undock button placement.

CCP you are better than that. Please fix!

What's wrong is that that avatar has apparently come straight from Abu Ghraib. Get the lawyers here, stat!

The old UI may not have been perfect, but it was better than what we have now. CCP have been failing to chase the latest UI trends ever since the "new neocom" and the "new new neocom".

Thanks for reminding me that the updated interface is a huge improvement. Did not remember the old one THAT bad...

1 You have a black square in your face

2) One of the local player's avatar isn't showing properly

3) You are in your CQ instead of flying

Lucky for you, I came up with a simple solution for this some time ago. You're welcome! Big smile

Leave CQ for good and right click on your ship. Problem solved.

We use to do that with local, just to cut some screen space use out of the UI. Just hated having to reposition local with each new sitdown because Eve would "correct" a window that was partially off screen when you log in.

Then I decided to stretch Eve across 2 monitors running at 1080 and never looked back.

For a second, I thought that Cobra Commander was taking a selfie.

To buck the popular trend, I began to Rage Start instead of Rage Quit.

...and every time I get another piece of Carbon, I know exactly what CCP is getting this Christmas.

The "new" Neocom buttons just aren't intuitive, you can't find the right one at a glance whereas the old ones due to their colour and design you could easily and quickly find the one you needed. It's a recurring thing in CCP's UI reshape: it changes in ways that work just fine if you're not doing anything important and lazy ass away doing mining or whatever but if you're busy in pvp the UI is a hindrance, more than before.

I gotta agree with the OP. The icons are bland. I would say minimalist in design. I like the old much better.

But we're going to have people who like the new, or something else, and you can't please everybody.

Not everything is worse. Compare the ship models now with the old ones. The new ones have much more detail and look great.

Well played, thx for the tip! Big smile

I still don't get why they couldn't leave one small undock on the bottom left too.

Whatever may happen, I hope this UI is not final, or the font or new Aura voice. EvE deserves better.

Fixed that for you.
