You've clearly missed the point. ^ ^

I think you're concentrating a little too hard on the tiniest details. Obviously if you zoom right in it might be a little blurry (name one game where this doesn't happen :P).

It's like your trying very hard to make it ugly

Your right in most games it does but less you misses my point most games use higher resolution on main objects too witch makes less blur less everythng in negative prospective. As far as me trying hard to make it ugly it speaks for it self ... smallest detail aint so small when it very nodicable.

You really don't think EVE is pretty as hell? :P Especially compared to other MMOs...

I completely agree with OP, I am running a 9500 euro dual GTX 690 rig, and the textures in Eve ATM look like ******* dog vomit if you zoom all the way in, all blocky and zig zaggy.

Considering that the default zoom on ships is now set to closest possible when you press the reset camera button, it's ******** for the textures to be so damn low res.

In Crysis 2 with the DX 11 and HD texture patches I can look at a brick wall and it LOOKS LIKE A REAL BRICK WALL due to tesselation and very high resolution textures.

Not to mention the visual orgasm known as Metro 2033.

Come on CCP, make the game look even better!

Getting 940 FPS in interval immediate with the game looking that ****** is not satisfactory at all.

And to the NON GAMERS here that say Eve is the prettiest game out there, and that every game looks bad if you zoom in so much on stuff, maybe you should get a non **** PC and play games like Crysis 2 and Crysis and Metro 2033, and zoom in on ANYTHING you want while playing on ultra, and tell me if everything there looks like **** from close up.

It doesn't, I can see the ******* dirt under character's nails in Metro 2033 and crysis 2 when I zoom in.
If those games can do it so can Eve.

Inappropriate signature, CCP Phantom.

Might be because not everyone runs "9500 euro dual GTX 690 rig". Only people that seem to know that is CCP.

If I want pretty I look at my wife or go to an art gallery.

If I want my gfx smooth and with limited lag while I fly around using pixels updated every n number of ms, I play Eve.

So play them.

Have they got spaceships?

I agree eve looks great but it can look much better it should look much better!!!


T-T-T-T-T-T-TRIPLE P-P-P-P-POSTTT

Also, Eve looks fine. Stop griping and go play Crysis or something if you want a game that sacrifices substance for eye candy..

Also, you don't seem to understand how many man hours are required to completely revamp all of the textures and meshes in a game as large as Eve has become. Also, not sure if you have heard but V3 is in the works in stages, and we may yet see tessellation and dx11 support in the future. More than I ever asked for, so I'm not complaining.

Well im complaining cuz as game like eve for being out there for so long graphics wise no changes were made in years...except in redesign in structure of certain objects...wow big ******* upgrade. In 2007 iphone came out now we got iphone 4s with 100 times better options techology. Eve lauched in 2003!!! On March 14, 2006, the Eve Online development team announced that they would be upgrading the graphics engine of Eve Online to a DirectX 10 / Windows Vista graphics platform.[71] Revelations patch 1.4 had patch notes quoted as saying that the current Eve Online client should work in Vista "as well as it does in XP. On September 10, 2007, CCP Games announced that the new Trinity 2 graphics engine will be using DirectX 9.0. Hmm 2007 seems a while a go doesnt it, no ******** update. Coming into 6 years after last mayor graphics update not even dx10. For god sake dx11 was released 3 years ago. So what do we get in almost 6 years of falling behind rest of gaming industry ******* usless captain quarters. And yes i wanna see dirt under my characters nails and a **** stain on my ships hull. It doesnt take 6 years to remap whole game it takes effort and budget which CCP is clearly cheep on.

Ever looked at the side of your ship as you warp through a gorgeous system?
Ever seen multiple cynos?
Ever watched a fleet of scaps jump in them?
Ever been in a big fleet fight with all options on?
Ever been out the front of Rens during a fireworks show?
Ever seen a beautiful bubble memorial?

No?

Maybe you're spending too much time looking at your fingernails.

PS: And maybe if you learn to touchtype, your posting might improve and you wouldn't have to look at your fingernails as much either.

Still trying to figure out how he saw all those beautiful things I asked about given where he's been and what's he done.

Maybe it was on Youtube.

Which would explain the bad GFX. Who knows. Roll

OP if you were around for the Trinity Expansion (and all the threads about it) you wouldn't be complaining about the graphics.

CCP is improving it but there is a reason why they are not using the latest and greatest and requiring people to upgrade there PC to handle it.

EVE still looks better then any other space game out there, even with the old graphics engine.

We all know, when we look at the game, what graphic assets are awful and must be reworked/updated, the "broken furniture" ships, certain "moldy" textures and my (not so) favorite - fake, unrealistic "mist" Ugh.

Has anyone been annoyed with low graphics and crappy engine eve uses? Game has been alive for so long i cant even remember when i first started playing it anymore. I mean isnt it time texture quality get bumped a noch? Eve ships and most other texture resolutions are in 512 x 512. I plyed games this resolution on games back in 1995. Common now its 2013. Should CCP include more options for players that run high end machines. I think YES. Even so todays technology and market are forcing better quality in products and textures have imroved over 10 years a lot. It doesnt cost arm and leg anymore. A $400 pc can hande a lot higher textures then eve engine uses now, and if u cant afford one u shouldnt be playing eve at all. I think it would be time do change some graphics quality in EvE and include more options for players. Another things along is mesh. Too much EvE mesh is too square and outdated. Over years i realize and see the difference comparing it to most games today Eve is falling behind a decade. EvE dosnt look fresh and realistic like it looked 5 years ago more or less. EvE needs an upgrade and a big one.


There is something wrong with you. Get your Eyes or PC checked.
I play multiple MMOs and i can safely say none of them has as advanced graphics as EVE. Not even newest ones.

Fact that you can play EVE on 5 year old PC doesnt mean graphic is old. Have u heard of something called system optimalisation? EVE excells at it.

FYI u cant compare EVE or any other MMO graphic with SP games like Crysis 3 or so.

I agree - EVE need serious graphic upgrade.

When people say /write "EVE is about spaceships" I chuckle because I'm flying in fleets and all I can see (while scrolled out a bit to see whole fleet) is ugly brown / black mess with white / red / green strokes from lasers and dotted lines from blasters. I just can't see anything like spaceships on my screen but Excel tables and some dirt between them.

More colors, please. More explosions. More light.

Say it with me... MMO, as in Massive Multiplayer Online.

Online.

so, yes. Eve is the prettiest MMORPG, todate.

and no, you can't compare MMO games with non MMO.
