Hey, hope a dev from the art department will chime in on this one, but with the new neocom coming, and hopefully new window chromes to follow to make them look you know... like there part of the same game generation :P ... It brought up a nagging question i've had.....

CarbonUI is here, i take it the new neocom is one of the first visible changes we've seen really UI wise, well that and the resizeable UI :S

Somethings thats annoyed me for along time was the HUD/Targetting reticule, a loooonnnngggg time ago it was discussed to start moving towards a more tactical overview, more in the way of the reticules used in the eve online youtube videos you guys do, it was shown really well in 2-3 expansions ago video i forget which one but with like ship name, velocity readings etc, of the targeted selected ship... i loved this idea, and it was so much hotter and more useful of an idea than the current... arrowy circle for the selected target....

Is this something thats coming? Soon?

I'm really anxious to see where the UI is going, as i think every dev knows the UI is one of the seriously neglected parts of the eve experience and the neocom is a great first step in the right direction...

There was talk of the redo of information presentation / redo of the overview is this something that is coming? i know thats sort of a different / another question....

But was just wondering if someone from art / ui could chime in.

I am still waiting for the day I can change the colors of things like the overview or the target brackets.

Since when did turret barrels deserve CCP art Dept. attention in the first place?
