The graphics shown were absolutely gorgeous but how will those scale for all those poor SOB's who don't have a DX 11 card ?

Yeah, some of us don't even HAVE basements you know! It's discrimination against the non-basement owners is what it is, marginalizing us like our attics and bedrooms don't even matter!

-1 if it means my PC won't be able to run Eve anymore. What will all the new system requirements be to do all of this? If Eve will still be backwards compatable with DirectX 9.C for another year then I'm +1

Do. It.

Do it so hard you break a hole in the space-time continuum and it happens before the Art Team even thought of doing it.

I like the new graphics, they looked nice. But performance, multi boxing and enabling the lower hardware is important too.

So, as long as it is not needed, then it's all good.

Graphic upgrade. I like the idea of that. Might just drop a bunch of cashy money on a new rig just for the sake of it and relegate existing overpowered rig to NAS or media center duty

Despite my posting prowess I really am terrible at this game

Priorities (personal opinion) from what I saw throughout keynote

1) UI improvements - huge impact on accessibility and immersion for both new and vet players

2) Shift some development focus toward player creation (currently most recent work has been surrounding destruction) - POSs more modular, more powerful and aesthetically awesome- "Minecraft in space". Never played Minecraft myself, but this is what EVE has needed for many years. This would be huge for many of us who want to build/defend something we're invested into.

3) Moon Goo V2.0 - could improve T2 industry dramatically, not to mention 0.0 politics and power blocks - we've needed to move away from the current model for a while and almost anything would be an improvement.

5) Direct X 11 tessellation/geometry upgrade for all space objects. Really cool technology - relatively fast to implement. Certainly adds more realism to the current environment.

4) Ship balancing/new modules/new mechanics - The current system is overall pretty good (what can i say, I'm used to it after 5 years) but changing things up would make things very interesting/entertaining. Would see this as a lot of work/community contention.
