It's probably been mentioned already but all the rocks, clouds, debris out in the belts and mission sites..

SUCKS. You can't see ****!

Who in the world would think that this represents an improvement?

You can turn it off. It's only a graphics setting in the client and for a lot of people, it is more immersive.

Each to their own.

If you are mining to begin with, I'm not sure why it would matter. Watching paint dry is more interesting than what's happening on screen.

It could be laid out better.
Idk why they blob everything together so you can't see what's new and things.

And fix structures and objects and redo missions so you don't have to say search around and mess with overview settings.
Large collidable structures and objects are just a nightmare

This was brought up at the little things panel actually, so perhaps a solution is already in the works. :)

Your eloquent use of the English language, your unique understanding of EvE online or the world in general, whatever brought you here, please accept this slow clap. You've earned it.

Your name translates from Cantonese as 'really annoying'. Was that intentional?

It looks WAY better than before.....

And if you can't see use your glasses.....other players don't have this problem......

Btw...space IS full of tiny particles.......it WOULD look like this if you fly through an asteroid field,esspecially if it was mined........

But as i said... USE YOUR GLASSES and don't blame CCP for your handicap.....

Yes, the name is intentionally a Cantonese blurb.

The literal translation however is: "too much trouble" - as in effort.

I think I'd use 'Taai Ma Fan' for 'too much trouble', but I'm not a native speaker (although I've lived in Hong Kong for 24 years, so I shouldn't be so rubbish Sad ). Is that not right?

I bow to your expertise in Cantonese after living in HK for 24 years..

Anyway, just texted an old friend in HK and he backs up my translation while supporting yours:
" if pointing to a person, yes.. annoying" was his reply.
Adding: "if talking about thing... troublesome to work".

It's an asteroid belt, that is how it should be represented. And that thing called gravity also comes into play.

EVE is space fantasy when it comes to asteroids.We have asteroid castles, asteroid mountains, asteroid dungeons, asteroid villages, asteroid mines and asteroid stonehenges. Also asteroids full of crystals and of any unbelievable shape you could imagine, EVE have it. Asteroid belts look like half of mushroom fairy ring circling around a beacon in space. One can only imagine that beacon must have some magic properties to sprout asteroids after every 24 hours.

Its crazy world we are living in.
