EVE General Discussion

It's the Incarna bs all over again.

They have the option to go back to the now "legacy" map and "legacy" scanning techniques, I'm baffled as to why they cannot/will not do the same for this new awful camera.

Its become quote obvious I think. Included with the new camera are changes to the tracking camera that effect gameplay and make it easier for lp farmers and miners to escape. The addition of extra key presses to track objects on overview and taking away the ability of tracking camera to watch the direction a ship is traveling when it enters warp. I havent logged in today but supposedly they have partially restored tracking ships as they enter warp but only if you are on grid with them and tracking them before they begin the process. Which essentially means any ship sitting and spamming dscan will still be untrackable and uncatchable. So long as the old camera is available they cant save the bears so it therefore must be removed.

Carebears and farmers everywhere should be celebrating. Its apparent that CCP have decided to put all their efforts into making their lives easier. It seems eve is well on its way to becoming nothing but a gold farm. I fully expect input broadcasting to be unbanned any day now.

EDIT: Apparently the fact that you can't track ships that have already initiated the warp process is unintended so I retract. :) Now if they will just get rid of all the camera inertia and give us back toggled camera tracking instead of requiring constant shortcut use things will start to look up.

They have said they will remove the camera within 9'th of mars!

Good, the new camera is superior in literally every way. If you're still using the old camera after seeing what the new one can do you have serious issues.

Lol, this is a joke right? You mean seen the new camera and what it "can't" do. Like a functioning tracking camera. Drifting all over the place, inducing nausea and being harder to control and manipulate in general do not count as things it "can do." A first person camera is not a feature, it's non-functional fluff.

I highly recommend you read the official feedback thread and get an idea of what ppl who actually undock and fight in EvE think.

Same, and I'm fairly certain it's due to the reduced FOV.

If anyone knows if it's possible to increase the FOV on the new camera, please let me know.

WTF I cant play with new camera...dont do this, you already ruined your game no need to bury it

Thanks, turning off "dynamic field of view" helped, but I still get this nauseating, almost claustrophobic feeling with the new camera on, it's hard to explain.

I really feel like CCP are just reinventing the wheel here, why can't they just leave the old camera as an option?

o man the QQ here love it. You can not stop changes people deal with it or quit. Making QQ post in GN is standard those days but come on. Stop doing it. If you get motion sickness buy a smaller screen or stop playing spinning ship in station.

Too bad that neither of those “solutions” actually address (or have anything to do with) the issue at hand.

But you're right — QQ:ing in GD makes no difference and there's a thread for feedback that's filled with complaints and CCP slooooooooooowly grasping tiny details that aren'y working with their “awesome” idea.

Then again, this is not a QQ thread but rather a warning that a core feature of the game will be removed in a month, as mentioned in passing in a dev blog.
