"Until that functionality is added back in, the option to load station environments will remain in the Settings menu."
"current "Disabled Incarna Door" will be replaced with an environment that will provide similar functionality and performance to the pre-Incarna Hangar, and this environment will be available until Incarna performance is similar to pre-Incarna performance"
Which part of "we were promised a PERMANENT opt out of Walking In Stations" does CCP insist on NOT UNDERSTANDING?
There are a LOT of us that have ZERO INTEREST in this "Sims in Space" visual fluff crap, and to be blunt about it this crap will NEVER match the speed and ease of use FROM A GAMEPLAY STANDPOINT of the non-WIS environment.
As far as *I* am concerned, the day "Walking in stations" is FORCED on Eve is the day I and all of my alts unsubscribe from Eve to never return.
So much for "Good communication and trust between CCP and the EVE community has always been a fundamental priority for CCP". Retracting on promises made for YEARS is a direct contradiction of this statement, at the "actions speak louder than words" level.
MAKE OPT OUT PERMANENT AS PROMISED.
CCP, you also need to look at the massive increase in INCREASED BANDWIDTH usage by Incarna. The game is flat out UNPLAYABLE on some lower-end ADSL connections, which is what your current RECOMMENDED standards specifies. My current 3G Cellular connection is FASTER than many ADSL connections, yet the lag on gate jumping - docking - undocking has gone through the ROOF since Incarna, after already taking a serious bandwidth-based performance hit in Incursions. A lot of this appears to be the new "we are going to FORCE you to download ALL portrats" change in Incursions, and it don't matter how much you upgrade your "portrait server" when you're overloading the BANDWIDTH of a lot of your customers, many of which don't want the damned portraits AT ALL and even do everything we can to turn the damned things OFF, only to end up with tons of them on our machine ANYWAY.
IMO the whole "push out 2 expansions a year no matter HOW crappy and HOW buggy" concept is a very bad idea. Even SoE stopped doing that **** to Everquest, and it's certainly never been a POSITIVE selling point to anyone that's been playing MMORGS for any length of time. CCP NEEDS to take a serious look at putting some real effort into fixing their EXISTING game and the many LONGSTANDING bug issues with it, THEN you can start thinking SENSIBLE about adding new stuff.
TO be blunt, the last *2* expansions have been total CRAP as far as I am concerned, I'd be a TON happier if Incursions and Incarna had never happened. They added NOTHING to my positive gameplay experience, but have had MAJOR NEGATIVE IMPACTS to it.
