The game client setting on voice chat turned itself on. Normally I wouldn't have noticed, but that seemed to trigger a few problems. The mouse cursor acting up along with the whole lag spikes when undocking black screen (up to a timed 15 seconds on a few checks), opening Regional Market, opening Fitting window, Industry blah blah etc.

I've since turned it back off over the accounts. That's one odd bug to have show up and then upset so many others in one fell swoop.

Did few relics yesterday , first in months.

1st thing : someone broke the scanning map, old one was much , much faster and easy to use.
2nd : Cans sometimes unlock them self . You target a can don't touch nothing, and ship lose lock on this can.

One of the cans was so bugged that i needed to skip it as there was no way to keep it locked long enough to use analyzer.
90% of cans where ok.



Suggestion about probing.
I select one of the scan results , click 1 button and my probes are moved (in current formation) so the scan result is in the middle of the formation.
Using 1 drop down near the button i can select scan range of the probes , and they scale keeping the formation.

If you don't mind, CCP, before you kick off for the holidays and leave just the Server Hamsters minding the game client...

Could you please fix the mouse cursor issues? The glitchy, jumpy, sometimes not responding, mouse cursor that's kind of important to Play The Game??

If it helps, consider me a paying customer with an ongoing service complaint with your product, not a "whining gamer on a tirade".

Like the ships and modules and stuff....but I think we should see other people.

The longer I play the realization has formed with me that EvE Online is petrified of their player base. They seem scared to update their funding formula, scared to give new players a parity with old parasitic veterans. Afraid to do some real overhauls. (Sorry, but I feel the entitlement gets a bit much from some of the heads-in-jars playing from their paliative care suites). Even the games architecture is getting rigidly retro. It's been called a spreadsheet/messenger service with a spaceship mini-game attachment.
If you made the game F2P, and ended up getting your income from in game purchase that would be following the trend that many games are going to. It would bring in much needed new players, and would back-end the shortfall. Even the proposal to be able to buy SP was shouted down by the 'sitting comfy' player base. Its just that CCP seems so beholden to them, they've lost their game to them, it's been hijacked by the first or second generation players. Sandbox is now a synonym for lazy, I shake my head.
You have so much accumulated development, if you wait too long to come out with a more solo player, PvE friendly game, I feel it will be too late. There has to be way more sci-fi, story line game content. Missions or whatever. If you wait too late all that work will die. You make players rely too heavily on people they have never met, and some don't really want to meet new people just to play the game. It has given EvE the reputation as an angry game.
Hey, we lived together, I feel I can be honest with you. The world of gaming is growing, I have been growing as a person too, and I feel EvE is not. It's just doing cosmetic tweaks and calling them expansion. Baby, go to the gym, stop lying around on the couch filing your nails! What you need is to be working on an EvE 2, make it glamorous. Show me! I am moving out, I need to find what I am looking for in a space girl. We had some good times, no one can take that away from us. The sun will rise tomorrow, you'll get over me. Just don't show up at my friends houses or my work to yell at me...that's crazy.

I do like the new Endurance. It's...an...improvement...on a ship...I have flown...many times before...
sigh...

I agree in various points ... and I'm going to break my silence from time to time because I really like EVE-Online and always paid for it for a reason. And I truely see things that are wrong and not getting fixed or changed.

First of all ... Hilmar Veigar Pétursson you need to talk to persons.



Please do not and stop deploying new expansions right before holidays, it now happened several times.

That never worked out perfect, because nobody is perfect and unexpected **** happens.
It just annoys players and if you already don't know, there are many players who plan on spending at least some time to play in their holidays.
If this don't work out, it's getting bad. You're kicking your own butt.
I mean if your intention was to arouse your player base's curiosity, then do it weeks before and fix the issues fast, because they will happen ... always! And a finally good running system will let your fans decide to plan some time in their holidays for it.


And an other thing:

Exactly there are tons of 'other' unseen issues left behind or not seen and I don't go into details here, because it's not the right topic.


Nevertheless and so said, in all I like the new changes.
Thumbs-up.
Except that I read on the download site CCP will not support WinVista any longer supposedly because Microsoft has stopped to support it, which is untrue!
Support will last until around middle of 2017. Stopping it now is something I really don't like and the reason is wrong. Thumbs-down.

Large Drone Speed Augmentor II - needs to be fixed

Not affecting gameplay, but I think it shouldn't be there.

Why?

The Deacon and the Purifier are both Inquisitor derivatives.

Intended. Deacon and Purifier are both T2 variants of the Inquisitor. The reason the Purifier looks like a different ship is that stealth bombers were some time ago given visual overhauls, though the T1 hulls they are based on were not. Before that, the Purifier had the same looks of an Inquisitor. Same thing with the other bombers as well; look at the Manticore and you'll see the Kestrel appears in it's variants tab as it's T1 variant, same as the Nemesis and the Tristan, and the Hound and the Breacher respectively. Good catch though.

SHIFT + left mouse on overview doesn't work any longer to open cargo (e.g. Cargo Containers). SHIFT + left mouse on the same item in space still works.

• Swapping ships after scanning does not clear scan result
That's a good thing! Who has ever liked that their scan results are lost when they change ships?

CCP approaches problems in one of two ways: nudge or cludge

CCCP, since you couldn't get to that mouse cursor issue before you kicked back and left your glass tower for the holi-daze, could You Get To It Now?

It's very... disheartening AND frustrating when I'm sending in the bug reports so you have access to files you ask for to fix something, then I get lectured for sending in bug reports for the same issue so you can compare those files and find a permanent solution.

Here's a thought. If you fixed it, I'd quit 'annoying' you with the same bug report type so you'll have those all important log file thingys. We'd both win!

I should not be pulling a temporary fix of 'smak the spacebar and hope for a few minutes of working mouse cursor' for a workaround this long after the problem was initially reported. If you'd like, you can fly me up to Iceland and I'll being along my computer as a QT machine so you can find this seemingly elusive bug on your end. And yes, I am well aware I'm posting to an issues thread past the official 2 weeks of attention span given. I refuse to get into Reddit, and responses from Twitter have led to another issue on a broken promise to your customers. Remember that acceptance of failure to stay in reliable contact with your customer base? The problems the echoing silence keeps causing? The promise to Not Do That Anymore?

Holidays are over. Fix the mouse cursor issues.

Please stop the ship camera from zooming in and out when you zoom the system map on the old system map. Pretty pretty please, it is driving me mad. TY.

I've noticed that when you login you have to now go physically reset the view on cargo when in space if you have multiple holds. Otherwise you can't use it - For example pull up to a CO grab mats drop to cargo, nothing. Nervously d-scan drop mats nothing, hastily warp back to a safe, reset inventory window, wait 5 minutes for the people who saw me to lose interest and go back again for mats. :(
