Test Server Feedback

This thread is locked until I get into work tomorrow and get a hold of it again. I made extremely civil, decent requests to keep this thread relevant. Those requests were ignored, so tomorrow I will clean up the thread and reopen it for reasonable, constructive feedback on the Inferno 1.1 features currently on Singularity. For those unable to post said feedback, I apologise and the thread will be open again by 10am tomorrow (GMT).

re the cost of adding allies: the problem does seem to stem from the fact that these changes are looking at the corp/alliance level when applying a cost, when it should be looking at member numbers.


Would it be possible to apply a cost to calling in allies only if your "side" as a whole has more numbers than the other "side"?

Ie 50man corp decs a 10man corp; the 10man corp can pull in allies for free until they become a 50man entity making the war "balanced"*, be that 4 other 10man corps, or one 40man corp, or whatever.

Once the defenders are at 50, they can continue to pull in allies but it costs them as they are turning the numbers in their favour.


Making the allies system look at the number of pilots on each side conceptually ties in with the war cost being based on pilot numbers too, although there is some work to be done here for timings and edge cases and the like.




* as much as pvp is ever balanced

Perhaps this has been mentioned before, but I'd like to reiterate on it.

The V3 Minmatar ships have lost their personality. No longer does the Vagabond have that unique look with the wingy bits at the sides, now it doesn't look different from a Stabber, just a darker Stabber at it. Same applies to the Claymore/Cyclone. The dark pattern doesn't sit well.

The Tempest Fleet issue is no longer easily recognizable. Out squared wingy bits are gone too. Now it is just another Tempest with a different paint job, and what's worse, the model wasn't even fixed. The exhaust still has the 2 plates at the side floating and not attached, and the tower to the right, on top of the right turrets, is also floating. The telephone poles are also nowhere to be found and the cockpit looks like a lighter green blob on top of the rest.

The regular Tempest, I can live with it, not fan, but not hating it. The Vargur looks kinda neat, and out of the Tempest hulls, it's the best. The Fleet Tempest is now unimaginative. The Tribal Tempest however, our unique and best ship, just looks terrible - sorry, but it does.

The lighter tone on the staple Minmatar ship, the Hurricane, looks bad all around as well. The Cyclone pattern is nice, but the Hurricane's looks are not up to par - and the new Tornado, why? It looked well already.

On that note, uniformed, perfectly painted, all-equal ships are not Minmatar-looking. They feel more Gallentean/Amarrian rather than Minmatar. I fly mostly Minmatar ships, and I've always loved the unique look, the missmatched colours, the blocky and improvised feel they have, those random bits attached to the hull, those solar panels that protrude sometimes, or how well and recognisable they are. It just feels like the newer versions have taken that away. And the lighter colours feel out of place on the ships.

Sorry to be this negative, but it just doesn't feel right/

After checking out the new V3 Minmatar skins for a forth time I now actually quite like them all, apart from the pitch black Core Complexion skins, the Claymore and Scimitar in particular look ridiculous and need to be revised.

Green around active ship in inventory and ships window in Station Services is not in your patch notes

i know lol and it actually looks kinda sexy and standoff

I didn't understand his feedback since he implied there was right click on the control which there isn't..

edit: Salpun has given me a bunch of good feedback before and I've often had conversations with him so I'm sure he didn't take it as negatively as you seem to have done

Yep All is good you understand the two suggestions I raised though This is Salpun cant search dev posts on my main right now for some reason

Do you get some sort of an error?

We're looking into this issue.
