NEOCOM (fine except fotr the following)
- global blink/flash or non-global blink/flash needs changing so that you can set each individual item.
- assets/ships needs moving upwards by 1 item block imo.
- chat windows when minimized need to go to the bottom pf the screen, not back into the neocom.
- get rid of the I by using, well actually, anything but that I.
NAME CHANGES
- horrible imo. Changes should improve things. not make it 10 times harder to locate things because more items have the same prefix etc. (trauma/limited etc.)
MASS INVENTORY LIST FOR RELEASE 1.5
- Noooooooo, bin it, burn it, eat it, for gods sake get rid of it now. |

I removed the effing CHAT ICON but now after I try bringing it back to the NEOCOM it will not show the minimalized CHATS I have to use cnrtl-tab & if I let go it disappears ARG BRING BACK MINIMALIZE TO BOTTOM MINIMALIZE TO NEOCON IS A PAIN why couldn't you have at least beenable to GROUP the chats which still is not as good to minimalize to bottom because the group icon looks like all others

just wanted to throw in my +1:
chat windwos all bunched up in one icon on the NeoCom is almost gamebreaking for me.... With that design in place I have to go and click that icon like every 20s to determine if an important channel is blinking, and if so which one it is. (also the new blinking animation gives me a headache :( ) The option to minimize single chat channels to the bottom of the screen needs to be put back asap.
Additionally but not as important:
- the little bar that shows the skill progress is tiny and very hard to hover over on high resolution wih the neocom minimized to see actual skill in training and time till its finished
- blue "i" are fugly icons :(
- option if info or cargo windows should show up with a symbol in the neocom would be apreciated, they clutter up the neocom considerably ...

Trauma?! Seriously? Can't believe you guys went with that. Have you even considered "Bruiser" or "Contusion"?
But then again, names quality and coolness factor has been declining all along. What can we expect from the same guys that thought fuel "blocks" sound sci-fi and cool.
Please CCP, put a little bit more of thought in the names you are introducing. |

You can still have station specific services show up from bottom up but there needs to be space between the undock and other buttons because currently it is entirely too easy to miss-click the undock. And get yourself killed if in a war/low sec/0.0.
A good move would be to: Put the Date/Time above the undock button, which would provide the visual separation needed.
And we still need the option to add the "day of month" and "day of week" information back to the clock area. Let us right-click the clock and check off options like "show day of week" and "show day of month".

yes some kind of deviding line / separator would be nice, so that we can group some icons |

I like the Fuel blocks, and I think the new Neocom will be good once the issues are ironed out.
The only negitive thing I can really say about this update is that name chanegs. They suck. Alot. You took stuff that had cool names and made them bland and boring. |

when the old :
- Quad LiF Fueled Booster Rockets

Those where names we everyone already knew and could distinguish (and moreover thanks to the icons), and did not had to go checking info to know which model was each.. This is an stepback, is like stripping names and calling the modules:
- Afterbuner MK1
Afterfurner Mk2 ... and so over
Where is the scifi spice in them??..is just lowering the game experience to the level of those crappy Games out there, EVE is superior and different to all them! And not to talk aboy the new misiles names...
- Mjolnir heavy missile
Mjolnir light missile Mjolnir rocket
....whenever i read "Mjolnir", instantly i think in the torpedos... Also, the names had some kind of personality... while the Mjolnir sounds like something dumb and huge, the Gremlin is like small and unstable fast..... now, all EM ammo is ..... the same to my ears... is like calling all missiles of the same type, Em/Kinetic/Thermal XXXXXX misile/rocket/topedo.. is just a generalization... again, lowering the level to crappier games out there So please, rethink about the new "name feature", because is gonna cause more chaos and confussion than good..
^^ this this this*900
Sorry, I can't get over the dumba** renaming you did. Trully dissapointed.
CCP, there are things that poeple love about EVE. Find out which ones thosse are AND DO NOT CHANGE THEM! This is as important as fixing things that are broken.

While you guys are playing around in the clock / date area, could you please add a SECOND "clock" that is tied to my system clock so I can see both UTC time and my local time? That way I don't have to minimize EVE or buy a clock to hang over my desk to see my local time at a glance. This is more of a "bonus" item but i felt I should post a constructive suggestion since my last 3 post were about how terrible the Neocom and the new module / ammo names are.
P.S I had to add one more gripe. What is with the agent portraits?! Super huge, even at high res, and they don't do anything (productive) when you click them. Why show us their face (trust me, we CAN see it in THAT thumbnail) Why not make a click on the portrait open a conversation? (yes I know this has been mentioned. Just adding my support for the idea) |

Eight pages of people posting their discontent with the Neocom and other related issues and you find this one thing to reply to?
How about a "We're really sorry we changed something just for the sake of changing it, it seems to have upset a great many of you and we are going to make it so you can use both the old and the new Neocoms, to your taste?"
CCP (especially you, Punkturis) need to learn that options make people happy. Being stuck with YOUR way of doing things especially after TEN YEARS of doing something one way is not only immerion breaking, it's almost a complete deal breaker. Doing this kind of "plastic surgery" as it were on the UI is not a good thing when it is taking leaps backwards just because you need something to fill your 9-5 time with.
I would like the old Neocom back. And so would a great many players here alongside me. If you REALLY want to dazzle us, you will allow us to move the old Neocom buttons around like the new Neocom.
PROVE TO YOUR PLAYERS THAT YOU ARE GOOD AT YOUR JOB. Give us OPTIONS for once. PLEASE.
One thing I do like, in closing, is the new channel list thingie. You know why? Because it's AN OPTION. One that I choose not to use. Need stuff moved? Push Industries will handle it. Servicing highsec and lowsec - and we do it faster and more reliably than anyone else. Ingame channel: PUSHX |

I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL for that!! I wonder how mad you get when something actually important that is bad happens to you as opposed to something so utterly trivial
actually, there was nothing CCP did in the past what made me thit angry like those stupid and useless names!! They took a good chunk of individuality from the items, I feel attached to mjolnir torpedoes and rage terror missiles because I used them a LOT in my pvp carreer but now every fu*king missile is named mjolnir and terrors are now TRAUMA WHAT THE F*CK CCP !!?? |

I appreciate the work you put into the new Neocom and the other changes, but I would LOVE to see an option to switch back to the old Neocom.
I use a large screen with a high resolution, and this new neocom is very difficult for me to use. Sorting around it has added a level of complexity to simple tasks that I really didn't want, and the constantly flashing chat button has almost brought me to put a piece of electrical tape across my screen in that location. :-P
I really like the old neocom. It did what I wanted, it was easy to use and it accomplished everything I needed out of it. The new Neocom, for me at least, has no added functionalty, but instead is just more difficult to see and quickly navigate.
Of course, I'm sure many people love it, so I don't ask for any changes to the new neocom. Only an option to switch back to the old one. |

if anything, please change back the names. I came back to play eve because i had a stong confidence that you guys were just going to do more good things and interface with the community before making changes.
I can see that my confidence was deceived. |

Two more comments:
4: Agree the new names are a bit stupid. I understand why you are doing it but it takes away from the sci-fi fluff / flavor. It's especially pointless now that you have added a easy module comparison tool
5: Minimize to menu/task bar is unexpected. It's a feature in both Windows and Gnome (task bar item stacking) that I disable. The problem here (for example) is if I open up lets say Jita system info (and show route) and Irujen system info (and show route) I lose them (and the show route tabs) if I minimize them. If you want minize to taskbar that is fine but it shoul not stack like items nor should it lose information. |

Adding my 2 cents that the missile and module renaming was not necessary. Its more of a hassle than anything now to find missiles. I Support the Goons! |

Great update! The neocom is pretty, and all the module names make much more sense.
Except Trauma. Trauma isn't good. Nova, however, is a very good word. |

Everything seems to be working.
However the ability to minimize chat wndows (without them going into Neocom, but going to bottom of screen) again would be awsome..
i like to group my windows and only watch for important flashing intel windows during fleets.. now they all fall into 1 button on neocom and flashes away, i never know which one is flashing?!?!?!
apart from all that i think i like it... change takes time to adjust to. |

I removed the chat button from the neocom because I thought "that's ******** with all that blinky".
I have a group of player channels, such as intel channels, that I join and kept in a separate stack of windows.
Now when I minimize that stack of player (intel) channels, it just completely disappears. There is no way to get to it again except for leaving the channel and rejoining it.
Fine, I suppose that's a punishment for getting rid of the chat icon. Please forgive me! Let me get that ******** chat button back so I can still have reasonable access to those chat windows please! I'm sorry I tried to CUSTOMIZE my neocom. I won't do it any more, I'll keep it the way you tell me to! If you just give me back that button so I can get to those channels once again, please? |

Sad about the new module names, Eve just lost a lot of its unique flavour with that, not to mention that any online guides (which are still needed) will now be wrong and deeply confusing. Bad for background, bad for third party authors and bad as it increases the number of clicks to find anything in the markets. Why do it? |

Every single person in my alliance is outraged by the chat button. You cannot remove it. And it just blinks and blinks.
If you turn autoblink off, you then know when something actually important happens like getting money. |

Sorry if this had been said before (yes I'm too lazy to read through 15 pages of grumbles)..
When I double click on an Agent I should be starting a conversation with that agent, not looking at a large version of their head. If, for some very bizarre reason, I want to look at a blow up picture of their head I'll right click on their head and choose 'Show me a big head' . To be honest, unless it is a very cute agent, I really don't need to see their head in detail. In fact, short of 'show me the naked or near naked 'bod' of the agent' I really don't have much interest at looking at their avatar.
Also, why did I just get a mining mission from a security agent? (New Frontiers?). EDIT: Nice haul actually, NVM)
OK, the blue 'icon' on the neocom needs better pictures. I should have a picture for local, a separate one for chats that are not local, a separate one for agent mission conversation, a separate one for survey scanner results, etc... basically they should be intuitive, not a blue icon (Microsoft Bob died faster than EvE Bob... there was a reason).
However I must admit I do like the direction the Neocom is going (Local needs an ability to drop to the bottom like it used to, and ships and items need a spacer from the undock button).
-Mad I know I left a battleship in this station. Wait, you can put ships in Station Containers? ****! I just trashed them. |

new features are great. well done for the most part.
next idea: add capacitor next to shield armor structure for the fleet watchlist. also maybe give an option for percentage readouts instead of just bars? |

and i'm even lead to believe further that this name change is great. i myself don't run gaydari ships so having simple names when i do use missiles is win. less having to show info each name to see what it is....
trauma rocket trauma light missile trauma heavy missile trauma heavy assault missle....
how is that harder than thorn, bloodclaw, scourge, terror? |
