Intro: As far as I know, the current warp effect is at least 4 years old. I believe it is time for a bit of a visual change in that area.
My idea is to replace the current "get up to speed and slug into warp" with a more "punch" like effect, as demonstrated in the following 4 videos.
My first two examples are from the 2009 Star Trek movie: Linkage Linkage - Imagine a Titan or other capital/supercap class ship performing the 2nd warp.
My next examples are from the game Mass Effect 2: Linkage - Skip to 2:18 Linkage - Skip to 2:10
Finally, it seems that CCP has almost pulled this off already in the Incursion trailer: Linkage - Skip to 1:20
I appreciate you taking the time to read my proposal.
Also, keep the suggestions coming, I'd really like to see this become something that (mostly) everyone can agree on and thus get it passed by the CSM.

You know, making effects is hard work. Have to get it right. This **** takes years you know. Especially if you also need to code stupid rooms and fluffy dresses. |

+1 to punching warp effect ... currently most of the time I can't even tell whether my ship is in warp or not (with the "shaking" turned off). |

I think all they would have to do is increase the first/last few moments of warp.
If X is the distance covered in the first/last .3 seconds of warp. Then simply change X to 100 * X. And remove the beginning of warp from where your ship stops for a moment before warping, to instantly hitting warp. |

I wholeheartedly support this idea.
This, in tandem with removal of the "acceleration" time in warp, like getting up to max warp speed and dropping out slowly would be amazing. It would also boost ceptors/frigs in that they could, more realistically, beat larger ships out of warp for properly tackle, especially in systems with not much distance to travel. If a ceptor could punch into warp and be max warp speed as it leaves grid, then slams back onto grid on the other side, that could make chasing hisec WT's through gates much more interesting. |

Yes-í-í-í I totally agree with this, I was wondering the other day looking at warping animation if someone had already brought this subject to the forums :)
I also dont like how if you are at max speed and initiate warp how your ship stops then the warp animation beging and slowly start to warp just makes no sense and I think it breaks the experience of warping it breaks the sensation
I totally agree with this so.... PUNCH IT-í-í-í

My favourite 'jump to warp' animation is the one from Farscape.

The Warp effect is quite broken as it is right now. So it would be nice to have a new effect. Seeing as how 90% of the time I don't even see the effect and the camera only shakes when I exit warp for a little bit. |

I love this idea!
I think that the warp effects during warp need a little improvement too. I know this because I very much hate the current warp effects, and the first thing that a friend tells me when I want to show them EVE is, "Man, you just flew right through that station and that planet. The effects kinda suck in this game don't they?"
I found this video to illustrate what faster-than-light travel would look from the inside: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQnHTKZBTI4&feature=related
I think we need this! |
