Please revert the sound settings. The new ones are freaking terrible and considering how many sounds in eve are insanely high pitched it's necessary to be able to lower them individually.


+1 here - I LIKED being able to totally dampen station noises, as when i'm in station I'm trying to work out logistics, pricing etc, and the background noise is distracting. But having 'atmosphere' elsewhere (flying) is nice. Now I have to damped 'atmosphere' to get any thinking done in station & the rest of new eden is silent (no I don't play your music, sorry).

So, please give us an option to mute the station atmosphere separately from external.

Been 14.99 according to records for ages. Going by the nitwits posting in GD (as opposed to here), I'm not the only one seeing weird things. Then again, might be something else going on. After all, transferring a character was technically no longer possible for Plex, but for the Tournament submission it was perfectly possible :P

Really? Getting rid of Advanced sound settings because they aren't simple enough? Ahem.... advanced... ADVANCED... why simplify the advanced settings, its counterintuitive. Will be playing eve on mute until they are brought back. Cant stand the stupid D-scan noise. First patch in a while I honestly hate. Good job CCP.

On the plex note: we all see what you are doing by increasing the prices, it would've gone a lot better if you were honest with your player base about increasing prices and then just done it. You being sneaky about it made it pretty bad. So good luck with that! I know quite a few people who wont be purchasing anything anymore.

Revert sound settings plz. thanks.

6 plex used to cost 104.95 us

now 5 plex and 1/2 cost 99.99 us.

so now it cost more to plex then it use to.

Great job ccp i see a burn jita with a bigger scale coming.

Ccp yet another way to **** of the player base.


Learn to math:
2860 New plex = 5.72 old plex
Old price per plex: 104,95/6=17.49
New price per plex: 99.99/5.72=17.48

Technically, new plex is cheaper.


Your math is sound.

But, the difference I see is that the economical choices do not begin at the $34.99 for 2 PLEX price point anymore (all packages of 2 PLEX and above were the same 'per PLEX' cost). Now, to maximize your dollar-to-ISK conversion, you have no choice but to spend $99.99.

In concept, not overly pleased - but working in the Middle East gives me more money than sense, so no real impact FOR ME. Lots of impact for Joe Bag'o'Donuts, though. (Did they release the new costs ahead of implementation, I wonder?)

Normal price for a PLEX prior to implementation of nuPLEX was not $14.99, as 2 of them cost $34.99. I'll wager a billion ISK on it.

1 month game time is still 14.95.
Regular Old Plex was never 14.95.

Whoevers idea it was to dumb down the sound options needs firing ASAP and the old sounds returning. Absolutely stupid idea.

The real question is why they just didn't make aurum tradable on the market and prevent all this PLEX nonsense.

"Move PLEX to vault" option doesnt work when PLEX is in citadel and I am in remote location. I had to go there and move plex to Vault by draggong it there.

Same with PLEX located in nullsec outposts.

Dumbing down 'advanced audio settings' is just silly and a sign of not understanding your own product, it's features and your users. In fact audio needs much more flexibility IMO, starting with changing this back and allowing to select where sound goes instead of system settings/default..

Plex changes are an obvious ploy to get more income, I predict the arrival of 'go omega for a week for just 150PLEX' and similar options..

The new scanner interface is far from done and still quite infested with issues and plain old bugs. Removing the original system as an option is at best presumptuous.


Overall I think CCP should start focussing on stuff like making the UI more consistent and functional instead of 'oh, pretty' enhancements. But then again, it'a mostly about luring in new users and not making sure more people come in than leave to maintain the income level.

Oh and while you 'work out' the credit in the store I guess you are expecting/hoping we'll just put plex in to get what we need/want..


But hey.. what would you care right.. you know most of us will hang around anyway right?

Sorry, out of sheer shock I was unable to articulate anything useful for a bit their...

I can not imagine in any way how the limited audio options just introduced have added or improved upon game play and would argue it has in fact had a profoundly negative effect on immersion and personal customization.

The main issue for me was, and still is, the audio effect from cloaking/de cloaking being to loud compared to other module sounds, I made a post sometime ago on this issue.

It was also good to be able to have more control over self warping and other people warping effect volume.

I implore you to amend this dastardly deed.

Here's the original thread about the new sound changes:

https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=519006

Only 9% of players use the advanced sound settings according to CCP. It was costing them valuable Dev time to maintain it.

I have just muted everything now, so sick of all the rage inducing sounds that keep being added..
