Ok so the patch has arrived and I like the stuff that has been done except for the visual experience in the asteroid anomalies has been destroyed.

The Eve team has spent so very long and hard getting the visual effects looking wonderful and now since this mornings patch the asteroid anomalies look rubbish the asteroids look like something my son digs out of the garden with a tea spoon keep the changes that have been done but put the rocks back to the correct size Visually please. I like to fly into a roid belt and see asteroids not dead space.

Here’s hoping this will be sorted ASAP.

I get that but on the other hand lots of people also use it to show off, to decorate themselves with fancy colored ranks, etc. - which you can't really do in such an easy and organized way with the "Edit Member"->General->Title

Could we please get a checkbox or something to decide which titles should be public and which not?

Also and this is just my personal opinion: why would anyone try to hide titles? Never had anyone be all like "oh god no, now the hostiles know my character in local is a POS manager - damn you titles!"
If someone really wanted to disguise people's roles without giving up on using titles for management then they could just name them whatever they like, something that's less obvious...

so ,i have been away from game for a cpl of months , came back 4-5 days ago,first with an alt , then 2 days ago with my main , and then we get this patch ... no big deal i say to myself .... then my corpmate who has also been away from game but logged back in several weeks ago tells me he's got 8-10 new ship skins ... woo hoo i think , some shiny's , but when i check i have a single skin on each account .... now i saw something near the start of this thread about the number of skins received but the only reply so far has been "omg how can someone play this game and not know whats going on" .... not very helpful .... so my question is why i only got 1 skin for each toon and yet my corpmate got multiple and from what i saw in an incursion chat some people have got 10-12 or more !!!
A simple explaination from a dev ( or at least a reasonable answer from another player) would be appreciated

thank you
fly safe
have a nice day

Ummm so map is pretty I like but ummm what is up with the planet icon on my cursor?!

Change to a crosshair or pointer or anything, its off visually and its difficult to adjust scan range on probes. Doable but so out of whack.

Please fix the 'Corporate Identity' opportunity. I'm in a player corporation and it is telling me to join one. I'm never leaving if I can help it.

Rest of the opportunities done, nice job.

I absolutly agree with that.
For an officer it also means more work; before the change u could see at a glance who had access to what&where, now u need a couple of mouseclicks more to to be sure about a members rights.

As far as I understand you're still able to see your corp mates' titles but I for one can't even see my own...

THE SKINS WERE NEVER PERMANENT BEFORE. IF YOU LOST YOUR SHIP YOU LOST YOUR SKIN.

You certainly are the dense one here. Previously, if you didn't lose your ship in combat, it did not lose its paint job. I had couple of ships which I used for occasional leisure flights and ship spinning, but now those can have their skins for maximum of 30 days. Essentially the extra price I paid for the ships has been wasted.

Not really sure why you feel the need to roll out a completely disfunctional feature, meaning the star/solar system map.

Did you actually try using it once?

Good thing I can still turn it off.

I'm in CAS, i want to stay in CAS.
The opportunities telling me to leave CAS are insulting.
It also doesn't say much about corporations and that i could never return to my starter corp.
Besides module lag sometimes the update seems to have gone swimmingly, though.

Bro if all you're going to do is look at them and ship spin you can do that with the preview window ffs.

The new ui window for "opportunities" makes sence for new players; however, veterans should retain the option of removing the icon and window in settings. Previously, players had the option of turning off Tutorials. CCP should reinstal this option of the "opporunities."

Opportunities? ; /

For the love of god, please migrate the new Corporation Role Management System to work for Titles, too.

Titles are a very fine way of managing who has what role, and is heavily used for role management by a lot of people.

(Obligatory reminder for CCP to rework roles entirely)

So today when I Iogged in in Aura appeared and informed me about Opportunities. Honest opinion WTF have you been spending the money i give you on now CCP? Opportunities kinda feels like an achievement system, something I don't think Eve needs, and also makes me feel CCP think I have forgotten how to play the game! maybe I have totally missed the point but I would rather walk though that door that keep a log of pointless achievements. sorry to ***** but i supose this is the place to do it.

Fly safe....ish


this is constructive! other players feel the same! don't silence me because you don't like what i have to say!

The new map is flashy and pretty, but right now that's it.


That is the number one priority now under the new management.

The new three point design philosophy is simple:

1) Changes are great in their own right. Because they are changes.
2) Make it pretty. Make it easy. Make it dumb.
3) Lots of colors! Colors are the surefire way to a better user experience!

I was amazed by the client downloading a whopping 40ish MB.

No, this isn't sarcasm! 40MB, patch applied, done.

Considering the actual size of the patch if I count all the skins ...
... that's just amazing! Okay I still have to undock ...
... which won't happen too soon sadly ...

... but still!

I'd have this with DoD any day compared to Gigabytes of stuff downloaded ...
... which I might not even see!

Major kudos, amazing! :D

Hah! I had the same reaction! I guess the new skins are modified internally and are not separate texture files.

Hmmm. Just restarted the launcher and am getting a 99.x MB file to download - guess we're getting stuff in stages Blink
