since I posted last, many changes have been made and several fixes have been introduced.

So I can actually use the new inventory system for day to day operations. And I am glad that I will get my separate ships and item windows permanently in station again.

Nonetheless, the inventory system was not broken and I dislike the new system. There was no reason for this damn UI to be built in the first place. The old UI worked great for 9 years. 3 of which I have been playing EVE.

Never once in my 3 years of gameplay being in large 1000 man plus alliances have I seen or heard a single complaint from anybody about the old inventory system. It never came up in mumble, vent, or teamspeak. It also never came up on any alliance forums, nor typed in our alliance or coalition Jabber channels.

In fact, I have never seen or heard a single player of EVE Online anywhere say "I wish they would change the inventory interface." I'm sure some people have, but through my average daily interactions with EVE and its players for the last 3 years, I never saw or heard any.

To me, this means it was working properly in the first place and the players didn't mind it. I am sure some people hated having a lot of windows open, but I personally prefer lots of window. I can quickly and easily move things around with them. I know many miners and logistics jump freight pilots who also like having multiple windows, as well as corporate officers who need to actively use the corporate hangers in stations and in POS setups.

Everybody I know in EVE Online through my corporation, alliance, and coalition has said they preferred the old inventory system.

We've been through this before, CCP. EVE is indeed your game. But in a more accurate sense, it is our game. You own the rights and in the end have final say over its direction, but we the players feel very connected to the game. And to suddenly **** with something this core to daily gameplay when the vast majority of us like it as it is can only cause friction.

Thank you for making these fixes. It will help, but in the end you screwed with a very big part of our game and even if you fix it, a lot of people will remain frustrated that you did this to something that was not broken in the first place.

Slightly improved it may be in browsing it, it's still painfully slow doing anything else... particularly with a large number of items in inventory. Opening cans in space is still massively laggy, moving stuff - again, hugely CPU intensive to the point where the client freezes. Stack All, don't get me started!

Why fix something that wasn't broken by replacing it with something that is?

We have a few performance fixes coming out on Tuesday as well. That should help, especially with towers.


CCP Soundwave seem to be blindly running with this new system and not even listen to the community as a whole. Over 1011 votes have ask for a roll back. Showing that all the lesson CCP has claimed to have learned over the last few years isn't helping the community. GMs are unable to assist player in resolving the issue they are having with the new Inventory UI, which is not their fault at all. CCP needs to yet again admit that it messed up with this Inventory UI and roll back to the old one. It was an uncalled for and unwanted Inventory UI to start with.

Please give us the option to roll back to the old system. The new system is very irritating and not user friendly.

Would love to have the old system back, but I know that's not happening. CCP's got our money already.

Recommendations:

-enable ships wobbling in hangar view (pre-Captains Quarters)

-add more missions (NPC fleet vs. NPC fleets that actually shoot)

-STOP NERFING EVERYTHING!

Well, if you think about it CCP was right about something. "Inferno set the universe on fire". They just didnt do it with the missle effects but with the piece of SH*T UI they implemented.

CCP seems to be listening to themselves more, the CSM less, and the people not at all.

Perhaps we are taking this the wrong way. Perhaps we should be pestering those elected to be our voice, because our screams (despite thousands strong) are still drifting into the atmosphere-less abyss.

On another note, it seems Soundwave is going to be at EvE Vegas this year.

Yes let CSM tell ccp that we need a system where user can switch between new and old UI.

Why is the inventory closed every time I start my clients? Why do I have to manually open them every damned time?

Want to improve the system? ROLL IT BACK!

I am down to one account from 3. If this inventory is not reverted in the next 10 when this account runs out I will be down to

0 of 3 accounts and will not be back.

I know no one cares. I just want to say I am sick of CCP. No wonder they only HAD 300,000 accounts.
