With some ships it's hard to see which way you are pointing when cloaked and this can kill you, that's why it was added.
MuppetsSlayed wrote:A general dumbing down of the module naming.
Well, it seems an attack on the learning curve to me. For the benefit of the zillion posters here who don't read skim-read devblogs;
Quote:The GÇ£named moduleGÇ¥ names that will be used in our Oceanus changes are:
Upgraded- Used for named modules where no specialization is possible Compact- Used for named modules that specialize in reduced fitting cost Enduring- Used for named modules that specialize in lower cap use or otherwise longer running time Ample- Used for named modules that specialize in extra capacity Scoped- Used for named modules that specialize in longer range Restrained- Used for named modules that specialize in reduced drawbacks
Impossible to get a set of names that's going to appeal to everyone, or even make sense to everyone, but the alternative is even more bland. It makes more sense to say "Meta 4 TP" than an "Extron" anyway (less ambiguous).
If you are lucky enough to be comfortable with all the named modules in existence then congratulations! But hopefully you can see this is a net-win as losing them is a great help to new pilots who no longer have to look every module up and can instead focus on something fun.

And for those who didn't see the "Space Object Factory" devblog
Quote:That said, we have taken the opportunity to retweak some of the red files that have gradually evolved over the years of manual faction and race adjustments. We finally tended to the Gallente CreoDron ships, for one. They are now back to the greenish look they used to have when New Eden was young.
tldr; is, as a move to improve client performance and pave the way for more customisation in the future there has been a reset on CreoDron ships, apparently by design. But if I am reading it right, it indicates that it still leaves to door open to change some back and still benefit from increased efficiency.
I fly space ships not drone ejector units, so I'm afraid I am underwhelmed by the upsetness. |

There is nothing fun about the new names.
The naming of modules should also be "cool" and mature. This is a game aimed at a mature audience.
Also, People, even vets, tend not to know if the module is the best option from the name. They look it up and find out.
The naming system and the route tiercide is taking is actually failing it's primary objective.
T1 modules are a waste of time for fitting to ships and simply become industry items. Why? Because the upgraded version is better in every single way.
Meta modules can't be built by players. This is a long standing complaint. Capsuleers should be able to build everything. People have made very good suggestions on how to achieve this.
The meta modules themselves aren't getting balanced very well either. You need to lose something to gain something and this isn't happening.
The only thing they've gotten right is realising that Deadspace and officer modules can actually be tiered and those worked as a "tiered" module system (C-type, B-type, A-type etc) |

The cloaking effect mechanism is cool.
However the chosen graphic effect elements are hurting my eyes. It looks like an old digital cam where the digital focus was maxed out.
Or take any picture and zoom in to pixel level.

CCP, please revert everything back to the way it was before Oceanus and the player base will know you are listening and care. In my ~4 years of playing the game, I have never seen a patch or expansion so undermine my enjoyment of the game.
The cloaking effect is so painful I have to look away for fear of a seizure, and that is no lie.
Taking away language channels seems like an overt attack on non-english players, does it save you money somehow to shut them down?
The tiericide and especially renaming really subtracts from the immersion and is going to kill so many, most even, saved fits, it makes the game have no point really if all your previous work and tinkering was for nothing. This was bad enough after ship tiericide, give us a break already, I feel ilke a hamster on a wheel basically.
Also, the changes to T2 gun training, drones, 100MW MWD, rigs, anything that makes the game vastly easier for noobs ends up benefiting the isboxer the most, because they can get to 90% effectiveness in 1/2 the time it took the veteran.
I don't really know where you guys are trying to take this game, but in a lot of ways, its not my direction. At some point, these slights will add up and people will quit banging their head against the bulkheads and play something else that makes more sense, and is more rewarding in the long run.

This is a wormhole leading from a c4 to a c2: http://imgur.com/o6LOxge
While I admit that the wormhole looks very nice, it doesn't really look like an actual hole leading to another place, but rather just an object floating in space. The center of the hole looks almost exactly like the background of my c4. It looks like if I enter the wormhole, I will just fly through it and still be in my current system.
Also, it is quite impossible to tell that it leads to a c2, which is the most essential information a wormhole should visually convey. I don't really know yet how these new sphere effects can tell me about the size of the hole, but that is secondary information anyway. The class of the system is far more important, and it needs to be visible at a glance to the trained eye. That is unfortunately no longer the case. . |

Wormhole mass effect is very annoying it makes it hard to see the destination constellation. FFS CCP did you try this before you released?
Vomit Green Ishtars...Really?
Over all fail, not as epic as the last one but still not good. You are aware of the competition out this year? Because currently I'm waiting for that launch then my subs will lapse.
Oh and the new module names...LMFAO, they are pathetic.
Arbalest sounds mean and well Arbalesty. Ample sounds like a joke from a carry on film. CCP you need to hire more competent people.
Uber card? Dude it's 2014. The first DX11 based cards were the GTX 300/400 series. If you can't afford even a GTX 560Ti, how on earth are you even affording to play EVE? The cards are DIRT CHEAP! Sub $100 now. You can easily get a GTX 560Ti (which can even run BF3 at max settings at a reasonable framerate) for $50 on ebay. WOW!!! Now isn't that an "uber card."
Again, if you can't afford a $50 video card, something is horribly wrong. Just going to work every day usually costs more then that in GAS! So if you can afford to work, you can afford a GFX card. Likewise, if you can afford the internet your connecting to in order to play EVE, you can afford a DX11 card. Heck if you absolutely need to, unsub your internet account for a month! BOOM! There's the money to buy a shiny new DX11 card!
About the patch : Hate the module renaming, cloak effect is pretty cool. Even though as others have stated, the effect doesn't scale. Other than that, I see no problems. Besides of course EVE feeling a bit slower. And my rig hasn't changed at all. This patch has definitely bogged EVE down a bit. (Again my rig can handle EVE without breaking a sweat. It's the code not the shiny effects.) |

Meh: The cloaking effect is meh and audio is too loud.
Doh!: The loss of official language channels has disintegrated, quite literally, my language community, and without it I can't chat while I mine.

Compare tool FFS, it's not difficult to use. Also we could have a simple naming convention that uses the old names that many people love.

Granted, I'm running an older graphics card - but the cloak basically appears as a fixed grid of "u" shaped squares. It wouldn't be that bad if it actually rotated with the ship, but it appears as a flat texture that's just been applied to a 2D object as opposed to wrapped around a 3D object. You guys must be running old outdated graphics cards, the new effects and paintjobs look great on my system.
That was one of the things that attracted me to EVE in the first place. It would run on almost anything without much in the way of problems. I was multiboxing with an 8 year old toughbook until recently. It wasn't great, but it ran smoothly enough to not be annoying.
EVE didn't need to be flashy. It was the complexity, the sci-fi theme, and the mostly player controlled economy that first attracted me to the game. |

While I have an older video card, everything runs and looks great on the highest settings - with the exception of the new cloaking effect. I'm Mac-based, and my system is EOL in terms of hardware and software upgrades at this point - and I'm not going to shell out another $1200-$1500 just for the *posibility* that the cloaking effect might improve slightly.
I really feel the new cloaking effect is a step backwards; I much prefer the original semi-transluscent cloaking effect. The new one looks like you're viewing a 3D object through a fixed 2D texture window. I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |

Odds are they are hiding under their desks waiting for all of this to blow over.
I am reminded of Hilmar's leaked email a few years back when he stated.
"I can tell you that this is one of the moments where we look at what our players do and less of what they say"
So it's just standard policy. |

With the newest patch and Cider updates I haven't noticed any graphic improvements with the cloaking effect, although now instead of these u-shaped boxes it's occasionally interchanged with a mesh of horizontal lines (which I actually prefer). I still have to admit I prefer the (original) cloaking effect - particularly if reports that this adds a few seconds delay when cloaking from a gate are accurate.
The transition times (phase-in/out) need to be sped up by a factor of at least 100%, as they're simply too slow. I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |

CCP are not sane people, they are a business. They should listen to their customers. I'm not seeing the 40 to 50k players on now that were on every weekend 5 years ago so maybe they should listen to the "brats".

That's the same reason I play, even though most of the players I know left the game. Even I dropped one of my toons because I'm not happy with the way the game is going. But I still play in the hope CCP will figure things out. (I could rant more but why bother...)
The number of people playing tell the truth about how happy players are with the game... |

Hell no they aren't. They didn't listen to the quite literally unified "nope - don't do that" on the renaming. Usually you have at least a few people that are like "yeah that's ok" but I can't really remember anyone saying that the new naming scheme was anything short of a blatantly dumb idea.
Seeing how the cloaking was literally the second best thing in this patch; the best being the EFT format import, here's some graphics suggestions (the graphics and design team doing nice work):
- finish designing 3D models for High Power Slot modules (NOS / Neut / RR / Probe- and Surveylauncher ... we can wait on the DLA) - redo the the Battleships that are not up to date (the Typhoon and new Pest look super awesome, the Mael kinda not in comparison ... same is true for the Baddon, Geddon, Rokh, Raven, Domi ... Hyperion is so-soo) - moar models for stations? prettyplease - new drone models (seriously) - check whether the Stations you allready have can be assembled via the Space Object Factory - check whether you can add PoCos to the SOF so we can get Alliance Logos on there
- I'm still waiting for 3D market preview of such trade goods as exotic dancers...
Oh and the new buttons aren't that bad. Dunno why everyone has a problem with them. |

The only reason these threads exist is for people to tell how frustrated they are, but very rarely something come out of it. When 25 pages of comments told CCP that the problem of the ishtar was the dps and not the speed, they decided to reduce the speed of 10m/s. GO FIGURE.
Let's make an attempt, and see if someone cares for once:
Keep the LML nerf for inty, bring back the normal LML dps for frigates. Nobody ask to nerf the cheap pew pew condor, hookbill, breacher or kestrel and yet CCP decide to screw them over, for no valid reason. How hard can it be? How do you explain that a faction frigate like the hookbill, does 92 dps with all missiles skills to V when a regular slicer does 135 dps without any issue? And don't even start saying that those ships were too good, we already rarely see kestrel and hookbill and low sec. |

ok this might be considered a rant....or it may not....not even sure it will be considered conducive.
1.) light misiles in their now current form as t1 are useless, not worht looting, not worth selling.....they are not even worth using....the stats are very much the same with no diference or changes in atributes that make or do a bit of good.
2.) besides missiles.....my alt from the changes of things that was being hoarded for cheap burn fits in FW has lost on the approx of 400 million isk worth of gear....yeah literally my isk basically is gone....raped, ruined, and robbed from my alt. There is no use for these things your turning stuff into. No one should be using anything now under t2.....unless maybe faction gear havent looked at those yet....
3.) What is this turning into? Dark Orbit? an expensive version of Space Invaders??? IF these were RL items like a car or something i wouldnt be here posting.....i would be talking to my Lawyer and prepping a lawsuit!!!
Seriously CCP, you need to revert these module changes and really think of what your doing. This is how Star Wars Galaxies died with NGE that plain just doesnt work. This stuff is getting old.....it smacks of EA all over it and the community knows you hired a former EA guy not long ago(within 2 years at least).
To my fellow Capsuleers.....im beginning to wonder, should we really have to swallow this? Check the Stats on these things.....they are garbage. Its not just the name changes. Maybe we should start thinking about how we truly wish to react to this because if we do nothing.....think for a moment....this may be the first step into starting to add golden ammo and crap to the NES store.....or maybe they will give us lock boxes like in STO and expect us to pay real money for the keys to open them or grind weeks for a single key to get good stuff. Maybe its time to burn the place down. Burn.....burn everything that supports this module tiercide....corps, toons, tradehubs........the new players not on trial anymore....every last carebear....just gank and wardec everything!!!
Because if we dont fight for EvE then we dont deserve it.
