Just use the transcribe audio option, the eve trailers don't make sense anyway.

I strongly support this.

I'll do you one better: don't make us watch videos. I can hear, but I hate sitting through podcasts and vlogs and other such media trying to get two minutes of useful information out of 30 minutes of someone's babbling. NEVER put information only in video or audio format. It's not searchable and frankly it's annoying.

They're actually quite funny when you use this.

I heard that something was going down in this thread, and I'm all ears to hear what it is.

being deaf i fully support this thread....

i would also like to point out that there was a competition once, that i was not able to 'access' to stand a chance of winning the prizes due to my inability to hear .....

I have flown with many pilots in the game that have been incredibly understanding of my disability - you guys and girls know who you are <3 you all, whilst there remains a few that have not shown the same level of understanding - testament is the post earlier in this thread 'i am blind need braille' you sir are a sorry state of affairs, and I can only hope CCP see fit to put you in your place for trying to be a smart arse when on the contrary you were being a naive at best and ignorant at worse ....

I have even been called a r.e.tard for not being able to hear ...... yes .. well ... go figure

Trust me, as you get older, it becomes harder to hear thing clearly (too much rock as a youngster). I love that MMOs (and Eve) allow you to communicate via typing - long may it last. Nothing depress me more than players saying to get on teamspeak (yes I know it makes for faster and better PvP/PVE).

Aside from subtitling, I hope CCP is checking to make sure that colour blindness issues are looked at too.

The first thing to go is the eyes. I'll be 44 next month and for the past few yeears I've had to deal with ocular migraines. Hard to play when you go blind in one eye at random times for an hour or so.Straight

This is a good request. Also kudos to Hiram Alexander for having subtitled many of them to now.

If only there were more open minded and understanding people on the forum like you :)

Seriously not a troll, I'm getting bored of the retards here.
