The devs are quiet because most of them took "mandatory vacation" and won't be back for a couple more weeks.

it pisses me on everytime I like to access my corporation hangar, I have to:

* click the item hangar button in the neocom
* expand the D*MN F*CKING TREE VIEW - RRRRRRRRRRRRAGE
* collapse the filter pane because its taking screen space away
* expand the corporation hangar tree item
* FINALLY click into the corp hangar division I want to access

those are 5 clicks instead of 2 clicks before, every single time I WANT TO DO ANOTHER INVENTION RUN - IT IS REALLY PISSING ME ON TO DEAL WITH THE SH*TTY UNIFIED INVENTORY AND DO ALL THOSE CLICKS ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel the same. Since I unsub my three accounts, it does not hurt anymore.

All of my words are secondhand and useless in the face of this.

i log in, think about doing something, think about opening inventory, double click a can and see a tree and go i dont want to see a tree i only want to see in the can instead of all the stupid wasted space it is hogging in my window, and then i log back out. curse the devs their management, then im thankful im down to only 1 account. then i think about getting a snack cake and a soda im going to go get before i log into another game and go play something that isn't as frustrating within the first 35 seconds of starting to do something.

logistics and basic shuffling of anything in the inventory consumes too much useless monitor space.
8+ years of hoarding stuff i like to keep in the hangar and then an inventory system is released that drains the living fun out of the game is foisted on me.

give us a way to never see this damn tree and replicate what the old inventory did. if you can't code it hire someone who can, cause your little story of the brick is dumb, hammer it to dust and put in a new brick.



so vacation keeps getting better and um it's only getting easier to play other things more and these affordable snack cakes are tasty and affordable since I haven't had to pay for 2 other accounts.

those who like it fine, great. but it will never work for me in any game.

I've tried and tried to get used to the new inventory - it's just so unbelievably horrible. Every time I open it I get angry. Revert this crap.

Yeah, we had to switch to void bombs in space tonight and it took a solid five minutes for everyone to figure out how to get the bombs from the can to their cargo whereas before it would've taken 10 seconds.

But hey, who needed that intuitive, quick system which was in no way broken when you can upgrade to a UNIFIED system which must be better due to the cool title.

Well, I took a look about and while the US BBB doesn't really deal with customer complaints regarding overseas companies there IS an office in Atlanta GA. I haven't yet found reference to a similar entity for Iceland but I'm digging. Hopefully the enquiry I just sent out bears results.

Right now I'm still in the game due to family (my bro in law has been repeatedly attempting to convince me to stay). As of current this inventory system is still a jacked up mess and hasn't gotten better. As for details why it doesn't work, I think the preceeding 72 pages more than express the problems and offer a wealth of information about it. Continuing to post to this/other threads about the problem can only reinforce the idea this abortion needs to be fixed.

I just want to see the 'closed/open' state of the main window be seperated between space and station...b/c i don't need that big screen open in space, but it can be handy in station...just not the need to close it every undock and open it every dock...you got the persistence half way done.

Also, can i please, pretty please, access my drone bay/hangers of my ships w/o that stupid tree? Also, would be nice to be able to get to those parts of 'inactive' ships like before this hogwash happened...(without using the tree)

I couldn't personally care less about the filters as i have yet to even use them...(especially since they take up valuable tree scrolling space)...if i can't find something fast i just use the 'search' box in the corner...like i did since i started.

And thanks for keeping your word on the 'weekly updates until this is as good as the old one'....way to keep customers happy.

And i'm sorry, but if i screwed something up this bad at work, and it needed fixing, i'm pretty sure my boss would NOT allow me to take vacation until AFTER it was fixed. And, your a gaming company, not a school, how exactly is summer 'slow' for business?

You get no sympathy from me for having to work extra hours to fix this...b/c...guess who screwed it up...you..even after the mountain of feedback you received/ignored.

Bullsh... Inventory is still annoying me every day.!!!

One of my accounts will run out in 2 weeks....
The 2 others unfortunaltely are payed (paid?) until 2013...

The worst "improvement" they ever made !

The person who invented this should go to the government or financial affairs but not design games where i want to access things fast and secure...

Just after bringing fuel to pos in wh and hauling things out of it i stopped playing before i hit my notebook into the ground...
maybe later in the evening comming on again when i have cooled down...(during a bit karate training - hmm should i invite the designer to a free lesson ??? hrhrhrTwisted)

You have misunderstood me. I canceled the accounts because I do not want to play with a bad game. This is my way to say that CCP should fix it faster. And I save money until it is redesigned. My stuff belongs to me Cool ...

All of my words are secondhand and useless in the face of this.

I actually liked the new inventory changes. It makes mining much more convenient, and helps keep the number of open windows down. Granted, I haven't utilized corp inventory since the changes, so I can't speak for that.

Well good luck when you do. And good luck getting it to stay put where you left in and in the condition in which you left it.

CCP, did I not see patch notes saying that the flipping little filter thing would remember that we all hated it? Not so much... At all.

Every time I have to open the UI, I need at least 5 seconds to "fix it" in order to see what I need to see. Now it's twice as wide because I have this tree thing, and then it's also twice as tall in order to fit the bits in the tree that I am working with into one area without having to scroll. How exactly have you saved me space? The fact that the scroll isn't mouse-over sensitive makes it even more horrible, since I now have to make the tree section active in order to scroll it to the correct spot. Even better, once I have THAT done, as soon as I change the status of a POS module, it flips to wherever the hell it wants to be anyways. Also, the proportional sizing of the tree and main window is an abomination.

So - terrible design, imaginary "fixes", and 73 forum pages of pissed off customers. Oh. And there are STILL wartargets in my bleepity bleep bleeping corp hangar.

I agree with the guy earlier that said performance of this level is unacceptable in most any job.

It would be nice if your "settings" would be remembered when you dock in stations. I also find it a hassle to constantly collapse the filter which I rarely use.

I like to return to my station with everything set up in the same way I left it. Would it also be possible to remmeber the camera and avatar positions between undocking and docking?

CCP have gone quiet on this broken UI to such an extent as in the last patch there was no fix and this has been one of the most complained about fails. Sorry folks nothing to see here might as well just keep playing as the complaints will now just die.

Last time I'm going to say this:-

Put this rubbish in the Assets where it should have been and give us back the old system, end of.
