If I remember correctly, the juke box was taken out because it was a code nightmare or some such.


Well, Developers, I have a proposal. Perfect time to design something that can read MP3 files from the harddrive, or play EVE music like the juke box. Can't be that bad!! We're talking "look into folder, open files" kinda stuff.

the forum post above is another bring the jukebox back thread that is growing.

I want it back, this game is suppose to be based on player choice. Well my choice was to listen to what i wanted to and how ever many times i wanted to listen to it. CCP took our choice away and with not even asked us what we wanted.

And CSM's please look at that other thread and please ask ccp the questions that us the players have been asking. Alot of us want to see the information used in the dection to remove the jukebox because it was not used that often apparently, Yet does that information also show how many accounts where logged in on the same machine? Common sences says if a mining fleet for example is been run off 1 computer and has 3 hulks and 1 orca, you have 1 jukebox playing there for of course the jukebox will show its not been used much durrrr

CCP has done a lot of dough headed dumb ass things recently. Removing the Juke Box is one of them. Fix this and bring it back in the next update.

I've been following this and the Jukebox Petition thread for a while now, and I don't know if all of the "EVE has sound?" posts are in the same thread, but they're int here somewhere and there's several of them. The Jukebox Petition thread (linked in post #124 above) is up to 28 pages now.

Why would you want it back, it took years to get rid of it.

I find it odd CCP would go through ''hell'' trying to get Twitch integrated, so how hard can it be to put back a revamped Jukebox?

People don't like boxing in and out of the client to change music all the time. Some people like to listen to the EVE tracks ingame instead of an exported soundcloud playlist etc.

most likely reason was it caused some drainage on the server that could have been freed up for other resources like...PvPing or such.

Since the jukebox was entirely client side, unlike the new system which takes cues from the server, it actually increased the amount of server resources used, not decreased.


Also, their official excuse was that 'we don;'t want to do this!' Not because it was even hard, but because it was hard to get to integrated with Twitch, which some people use, but most people don't.

Also, I demand that my refrigerator also preheat my oven.



That would be awesome for when I'm picking something frozen out.

A lot of people do, but there's another thread for demanding it back. Though you can also just send the sound guy a PM saying 'Needs More Jukebox'.
