OK so I'd heard all the hype, raced to my trusty spaceship. And zoomed out to see what it was all about.......
Mission result, I got a bit distracted looking at the new missile anims and ended up with total aggro. First time in I don't know how long an L4 mission has got me into armour and having to jump out.
Final result. The new missile anims may look great but I'm not going to be looking at them anymore. Sorry guys, you may have put a fair bit of time and effort into it, but I've had my fix. I'll be going back to making sure I don't aggro whole rooms again. |

Damn you CCP! Why must you make everything pretty and shiny and distracting? I'm going back to playing MUDs so I can focus on what I'm doing! "....as if 10,058 Goon voices cried out and were suddenly silenced." |

lol I went out and tagged some rats in a belt to watch the animations and suddenly realized I wasn't looking at local for like 5 minutes
came to the same conclusion
The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

Was never one for pretty shiney things, unless it's cold hard straight from the mint cash of course.
What I do prefer is things that work. I was sort of taking the p*** out of myself with that first post. But in all honestly, who is going to be looking at the bright shiney missile anims tomorrow?
I don't want to have a bunch of Icelanders crying into there Beer as the sun doesn't set, but if there are a lot of players with the attitude.......
"oh pretty missile that looks good" ....... then after being distracted for 5 minutes by trying to work out how much to sell something for without taking their shoes off to count past 5...they head off to find their comfy blankies before going back to doing what they always do.
Was the time and effort cost effective? |

In the words of that some great philosopher......Frack it, didn't think about hitting a belt. Guess Bright shiney things do distract me more than I realise lol |

lol missiles
Seen the new Inferno trailer?
Missile fleets....my god thats as bad as the Butterfly effect. No one uses missile fleets aside from the drake whines I see, everyone knows missiles are useless in 99% of most engagements so hiding the truth is like defending a mining vessel in nullsec and saying you will be invited to a PUG fleet. Right.....cool animations and all but its like buying a car magizine to look at the chick on the hood...cool to look at but in practical when you try to drive away with her tied down to the fender |

Call me a cynic..... Loads up a CCP Missile anim and dares you to! But I've sat through enough glossy presentational videos at work to come to the conclusion that when someone makes one for an internal audience they are trying to bull...... oops feed you a company line that may over state the value of said product/application/methodology (delete non relevant) in the hopes that you will go forth and spread the good word. |

Today's "Backhanded compliment of the Day" award goes to Tallis Lindisere Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

Tried on sisi, this si why I have "missile effects" off on TQ
How much time do you think I have to look at those when I have hundreds of targets on my overview? -I don't give a dam
However, props and internets for the team doing this, it's awesome stuff

Awe thanks Malcanis (kicks Malcanis up the ass and back into the crowd of plebes, grabs mic and hogs the limelight to give her acceptance speech) In accepting this award I'd like to thank my agent, my family, all those who nominated me, the pope (who I think is Catholic) and all those wonderful people at CCP who give us nice shiney anims we can give backhanded compliments to. Oh and my shrink who gives such wonderful pills and I'd like to thank those I work with but I can't cos they are complete *censored*'s who deserve a good *censored* and will get it when I rule the world. |

Yeap, almost lost a Berserker II because I was looking at the missiles. Pretty, but the novelty wore off in precisely 1.721 minutes. Development time well spent! |

Getting distracted by pretty graphics is pretty much your fault imho.
If this update did one thing really well, it's the new missiles. |

I make no bones about it being my fault for getting distracted. And yes the missile graphics may be a great piece of animation. But does that change the fact that tomorrow I may do as Lynn Young Borovskova did and switch them off.
Graphics may grab your attention for 5 minutes, but they have to have something more to them other wise they are "Avatar" a stunning visual effects movie, but once you get past that a load of ****.
And no I am not refering to the whole of EVE as that, I wouldn't be here if I was. I think CCP put a bit too much time, effort and hype into the missile anims, from your comment it's implied that CCP but too much too much time effort and hype into the other 80% and got too little back. |

I did not even say that anything else about this update was that good. If you look into the other threads, you'll see me complaining about the new inventory system and we all know that there's still not enough other content besides the, and i think you can agree with me here, great new graphics.
I think that we still want the same thing, but we should at least acknowledge the improved graphics as what they are.
Edit: I think we're both hot Hottie. Wanna sex it up? |

I just finished cruise missiles V \o/
Why? damned if I know skippy I hardly ever use cruise missle launchers or a ship that can fit them. My Tengu just got a little more awesome sauce added to it though. |
