While ago we had forums in eveonline.com

Now we have 8 websites scattered to browse the information from.

Good going. Really impressive usability upgrades.

Looks very good to me. Brings the eve website from something that looked like it was made in 2002(and probably was) into 2012 and the next generation of websites, and really shows off the game much better to new players. I was very impressed by the star map and ship viewer. Could information be ordered slightly better? Maybe, yes, but really, I couldn't find a thing on the old site anyways.

For you the new front page is

http://community.eveonline.com

Use that.

Also I think that the new eveonline page is very solid and informative bunch for any new players. Thumbs up for squeezing even that much information about the vastness of EVE into newbie-digestible format.

It looks awesome. I hope it's here to stay. Also: the interactive elements AREN'T Flash, which is epic win.

eve is pretty complicated, thats why i was a fan of having listed in one place and thus easy to find: you know its in there.

Now it takes a good while to click everything and find what you are after, I dont mind new things for new and old players general improvments. This new one is pretty to look at for sure, no doubt, gotta just get used to it (or make more BMs :P)

Posting in an I hate change thread.


Personally I prefer paper money too, but change can be good.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

This isnt about the change, its about the loss of an easy way to navigate the site in exchange for the pretty pictures etc.

I found a new feature in eve that was on the website that I did not know about in the game until just moments ago. Tiled Sov maps.

Well, not bad, looks fine in the IGB...then went to check the videos section... hoLY CRAP it shows the VIDEO, first and only thing that went in my head was, finally browser supports videos...sadly it never moved from 1st frame...dammnit all.

Really hoped for this one.

Edit - damn small ship list. O look..a Raven, 806m long..ok, why is the raven pic the one before the V3 redesign?

I've literally looked 5 minutes for the account management button. Not so cool.

the lack of polish is sad.

... like having the login dialog for the community site tell us about exclusive content on "the EVE Insider" when that section has been removed.

does anybody at CCP even read these things? at least once every few years? devblogs only accessible to subscribers?


... like still using the old design for the support pages (yes, I know that they'll eventually be moved away) instead of moving them to the slightly revamped, fixed-width design used for dev blogs.


... like having a different EVE icon on the community section (Linkage) than on the forums and the main eveonline.com site (Linkage)
