So. When?!

Current char screen is what, 10 expansions old? And that's just as many expansions i've seen since i first joined EVE.

Even if you guys don't include new features (Switching chars without logging off, please), when can we see a new Character Screen layout?

The world is a community of idiots doing a series of things until it explodes and we all die.

Switching characters without logging off would be nice. But why change the character selection screen? It works perfectly well as far as I'm aware.

You want the portraits to appear in circles instead of squares?

Who put the goat in there?

They will appear in irregular polygons.

Why not mix it up, cover all the characters with question marks and make you guess which one to play today

It could be like this:

Your avatar (not portrait) with active ship in the background when highlighted. and when you highlight the character you want ot log in as, the information that we normally get is shown in a little box in the corner

It wouldn't be a static login screen then, the ship would be hoovering and your avatar would be standing there and moving slightly, possibly with background being phased out CQ if your docked or nebula if your in space (which is same as the system your in)

Why do we need pretty login screens? Its not as if we spend much time looking at them.

You log in, and it goes to a cutscene of your characters sneaking through dark corridors inside the station while fleeing from zombies and ninja monkeys with chainguns, which they narrowly escape by diving into a captain's quarters and firmly sealing the door behind them. They then hang around in the CQ checking their ammo and catching their breath waiting for you to choose which character you want to play.

Post with your monkey.

I'm thinking more along the lines of vast, loathsome shapes of non-Euclidian geometry.

But then again I'm not allowed to work in the Art Department.

Can the irregular polygon constantly move to where your mouse pointer isn't?
